I just spent a wonderful weekend here with friends! It was sooo nice to take a bike ride through the park and enjoy the silent sounds of nature... truly relaxing!! Wonderful park with great rangers! The mountain setting is absolutely gorgeous! A little early for the color change, but pretty setting just the same. I highly recommend this wonderful state park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very peaceful, restful, and beautiful park. Everything is spread out. We stayed in the Beaverdam campsite. Completely booked. Very level and great for kids riding bikes. Very quiet. Stayed cool in plenty of shade trees. There were 6 single private showers with hot water to spare. The beach on the lake is clean and very cold. The restaurant is good too. The view of the dam is beautiful. There are playgrounds for kids to play. The trails are scenic. Overall, this park is attractive for everyone and very kid friendly. Spent one day in downtown Clifton Forge shopping at antique stores and the Art/Crafts Center. We will definitely come back to this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a beautiful state park, just not for big rigs. We called the state park in advance of making reservations and they said "no problem" for our 40 foot 5th wheel. We stayed at the Lakeside campground loop. Our site was long enough for us to park. Getting in was not the problem, we did not think we would be able to get out. We had to trim some low hanging limbs to protect our rig and required the help of 2 other campers to get through the very narrow, sharp turn with trees on either side. We only scraped a hubcap on a front tire and we feel very fortunate at that. One campground loop would be problematic for most 5th wheels because of the big dip once in that loop and it has a same way in/out. Not sure what you would do if you met someone. The other campground loop up near the office has a low, narrow bridge that floods. Once that happens, you are stuck until the water recedes. Campground roads are narrow, hilly, and twisitng but driveable. It is a beautiful park and it looked like the fishing was good. We will not return though because it is really not big rig friendly. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice small park. Very friendly and helpful. Largest load of firewood ever received for $5. Was able to get satellite by sitting dish in grassy area across the lane from site #8. Site #8 was deep enough for me to get my motorcycle in and out (I was backed in). Would stay here again We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

A nice small park tucked in the woods. Only a few sites have full hookups. No TV reception. Owner is friendly and helpful. Excellent little cafe and ice cream shop on premises. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Owners and staff were very friendly. Nice stream across the road. On road to Douthat State Park, about four miles. Excellent store and restaurant with 24 flavors of Hershey ice cream. We camped here in a Motorhome.
