We stayed at campsite 3 which is right next to campsite 2. We could hear the conversation from campsite 2 and see them."
"This campground was really awesome because it’s so close to the skyline drive and Shenandoah. We went on some awesome hikes while we were here. Check out rose river trail and bearfence mountain."
ScoutAwesome spot! Got the last site at 6PM on the Friday of Memorial Day weekend. Very respectful neighbors so it was very quiet
GuideWe had a great time staying here, the site we were at was pretty private behind our camper. Bushes and trees on all sides of our fire ring and picnic table.
Clean bathrooms and wash stations.
Would recommend!
ScoutAside from the trash people had left from previous visits, it was perfect for a more primitive camping experience than a lot of modern campgrounds provided.
We picked up and threw away the people's old trash btw. Leave it better than you found it and this awesome site will continue to be fantastic.
GuideSmall campground on the side of a creek. Sites are simple, some are bigger than others. Hookups are easy to get to. We stayed there for three days in April 2025. Area quiet, not much traffic. No trucks or trains in the immediate area. Ducks are there and you hear the water which is very soothing to us. Staff is very friendly. Restrooms are excellent. The main street of the town is a short walk from the campground. The town has a laundromat, the campground does not. A short drive away is the usual assortment of convenience stores, restaurants and grocery stores.
Due to the creek it isn't a good place for kids to run around without supervision, there isn't a playground or pool.
We like this CG. We have been there 3 times and will return again.
ScoutThis campground is awesome! It takes us back to a time when camping was camping without all the crazy commercialization that has overtaken so many campgrounds today.
Quiet, peaceful, the owners are awesome! They have an honest to goodness swimming hole! If you are looking for the newest, biggest, and most attractions, then this is not the place.
But if you want a campground that is reminiscent of what camping is: You, your family, and nature, with some simple activities and enjoyment, do not hesitate to come here.
The facility is amazingly well taken care of, and it is a true family owned campground.
ScoutI would call this a primitive campground as there is no water or electric hookups at the campsites. There is potable water at several locations throughout the campground that you can fill up your RV fresh water tank or a jug if you are tent camping. I was there in August of 2024 for two nights and throughly enjoyed my stay. Their are flush toilets and showers available and they were kept clean. I plan on returning in 2025.

ScoutThis campground is underrated! Found this place by accident. Don’t let the name fool you, this place is the largest camp resort in the area. It has everything even a small grocery store.
ScoutAwesome, plenty of bathrooms; quarter showers, camp store, campground is very large! If you go during popular times of year it will be crowded at the campground so if you’re looking for a more isolated experience this might not be the best spot!
