      North Fork Resort

      Love this place!

      We began our membership here this June. it has a great atmosphere on the banks of the Shenandoah River. There are activities every weekend like concerts and group activities. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The facilities are clean and very convenient. Pet friendly; two dog parks.

      Misty Mountain Camp Resort

      Mom and son new adventure

      Misty Mountain Camp Resort is located in Crozet, Virginia, off of 250 below Afton Mountain. I'm familiar with this resort. Many, many years ago, when it was Yogi Bear's park, a lot of updates since then. Great accommodations. I've not enjoyed camping as much as I have these last 2 weeks with my son Matthew, who is 30 years old down syndrome, autism and a leukemia survivor. I am 66 years old. I'm on the best adventure of my life. Just bought a new motorhome after my partner of 15 years passed away. I'm on a new journey. And taking care of my life with good health. I recommend this park to anyone. Friendly staff, accommodating, pet friendly dog parks, bathhouse, laundry, sun, and shade, with 30 and 50 amp hookups with sewage. I couldn't ask for a better place. Have a fun-loving life, I am!

      Spacious Skies Shenandoah Views

      Beautiful views & large spots

      Beautiful views. Adjacent to a working farm where cows, sheep, llamas, chickens and roosters can graze next to the campsites.

      The grounds were beautifully manicured and incredibly clean.

      It also had the largest dog park area of any campground I’ve ever seen.

      Very nice pool, friendly staff and firewood available for purchase. They will even deliver right to your site.

      Very close to downtown Luray, which has great shops and restaurants. There is a very nice 2 mile long walking trail, the Luray-Hawksbill Greenway, near the campground that will take you right into town.

      Also close by to some excellent hiking, wineries, breweries and distilleries.

      Luray RV Resort on Shenandoah River

      Spacious and clean campground

      We recently stayed for a long weekend at the Outlanders campground after we received a referral from a friend and could not have been more happy with our stay.  The RV sites at this campground are very spaced out, you have a lot of room to each side of your RV.  The park and facilities were very clean.  They have a playground for the kids, fishing ponds, cabins, pet friendly with a dog park and they are located right along the Shenandoah river.  You can go tubing on the river but need to provide your own tubes.  The ride down the river from one end of the park to the other is around 30 minutes.  Also for all of the people attached to the internet like us we were able to have plenty of cell signal to hotspot and get internet.

      Spacious Skies Shenandoah Views

      Great Location for visiting Luray Caverns

      This campground is very close to Luray Caverns and all that they have to offer. There is also a Duke's of Hazzard themed museum and store where they do live music on weekends nearby, it's called Cooter's. This campground is very small but quiet. It does border cow pasture land so when the wind shifts you get the smell but it wasn't constant and it wasn't unbearable. They have 2 swimming pools and a very large dog park. The bath houses were clean and well maintained. I would definitely recommend this campground.

      Madison Vines RV Resort & Cottages

      Newly renovated, great staff, many amenities, some sites are noisy

      Stayed here for two weeks in early March. Newly renovated campground with a lot of amenities. Very helpful staff. The campground is a lot of money upgrading services, capabilities, and extra activities (St Patrick's Day parade and dinner). While we were there they added street signage (very helpful) and installed a Bocce Ball field. Two fenced dog parks. Campsites are level gravel (no pads). Located near multiple vineyards. Our only complaint was that the sewage connection was slightly higher than the black tank outlet on our Airstream. The majority of camp sites are very close together, and the sites closer to the highway experience highway noise.

      Walnut Hills Campground & RV Park

      Will definitely return!

      Pros outweighed the cons.

      Good: Staff was amazing! Trash pickup daily. Level sites. Nice little general store. 9-hole disc golf course. Dog park and playground centrally located. Quiet. Close to shopping, restaurants, etc.

      Bad (if they can be called “bad”): We were excited about cable and wi-fi as a new perk. Could not get cable to work and wi-fi was spotty at our site. Had great signal in other parts of the campground though, and cell reception was strong. Roads were narrow to navigate and some sites quite short in length.

      Harrisonburg - Shenandoah Valley KOA

      Fall Leaf Peeping Trip

      We stayed here for 3 nights. Perfect campground with everything you need. Bathrooms are very clean. Ice, propane, and other items are available on site at the store. Halloween was in full effect including a haunted walk. Sites are spacious and have natural stone in ground fire pits instead of rusted metal rims which adds character. Dog park, pool, and plenty of games are available on site. Harrisonburg is down the road if you to need to stop in town.

      Walnut Hills Campground & RV Park

      Scenic clean campground

      Enjoyed our stay at this campground! Office is open until 8pm which is rare. Sites are clean and flat. Pull thru and back in slots available. There is a lovely creek running through portions of the campground. Showers and bathrooms were relatively clean. Didn't use the pool. Dog park and playground were nice features. Overall, good value for the sites and amenities.


    Guide to Singers Glen

    Singers Glen dispersed camping offers primitive options with no amenities and several established campgrounds with full facilities. Located in the western foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains at elevations ranging from 1,200-3,600 feet, the area experiences cool mountain nights even during summer months. The region features limestone formations and numerous waterways that create unique camping environments.

    What to do

    Hiking nearby trails: The Appalachian Trail passes through Loft Mountain Campground where "the AT runs right through the campground" according to Katrin M., who noted you can access excellent hiking directly from your campsite.

    Cave exploration: At Endless Caverns RV Resort, tours of the adjacent limestone cave system are available at a discount for campers. Clark P. describes the experience as "lovely. Marked well, lighted, relaxed. Our tour guide, Haley, was a sweetheart, taking time for the two little kids, and still giving the information older people like."

    Fishing opportunities: Shenandoah Valley Campground offers a stocked fishing pond where campers can try their luck. Jerry G. mentions "decent fishing in the pond" as one of the campground's attractions.

    Disk golf course: Several campgrounds offer recreational activities beyond hiking. Kathy L. notes that the "hiking trail into the hills and woods at the back of the property" at Harrisonburg-Shenandoah Valley KOA provides a chance to "run, walk & stretch."

    What campers like

    Cedar tree canopy: Hawk Nest Mushroom Farm provides a unique camping setting. RALPH P. describes it as "a very unique campsite setup not too far from the house/mushroom farm area" where "the camp area sits under a canopy of cedar trees."

    Mountain solitude: At Flagpole Knob, campers appreciate the remoteness. Sydney D. shares, "If you really wanna be alone this is the spot. Camped up there with just my dog and I doubt there was a single person for miles around. The sunset and sunrise views are insane."

    Wildlife viewing: Deer sightings are common at Big Meadows Campground. Veronica S. reports, "You will definitely see deer in the campground as they walk through and browse the understory. They are unafraid of humans unless directly approached."

    Waterfall access: Natural Chimneys Regional Park offers camping near unique geological formations. Lauren N. mentions a "refreshing creek to wade in, hiking, biking, swimming in the pool and gorgeous views of the night sky are all activities you can partake in."

    What you should know

    Vehicle requirements: For dispersed camping areas, high-clearance vehicles are often necessary. Mike C. warns about Switzer Lake: "Be prepared to drive another 2ish miles on a single lane and very bumpy dirt road. Go slow as several sharp corners with huge drops and inexperienced drivers coming towards you."

    Cell service limitations: Many campgrounds have limited or no connectivity. Dale Y. notes at Harrisonburg - Shenandoah Valley KOA, "Cell signal and camp wifi are bad. I was just able to get a decent signal with Starlink by carefully pointing at a small gap between trees."
