A very nice park and somewhere that we would like to stay again. Very scenic, clean, and quiet in a beautiful area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This campground has wooded sites up on a hill and open sites down near rt. 250. Each section has a totally different feel. Even though the road is noisy we preferred the lower section, which is nearer the pool and store. We had a fine stay, but there are some permanent residents living in rental trailers here. It's an easy on off of I64. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We spent two nights at Misty Mountain Camp Resort, on the tail end of Thanksgiving weekend. We called the afternoon of our arrival and were able to reserve for a late arrival that night. Getting in to the campsite at night was a bit challenging despite the highlighted map that was left for us on the bulletin board, given that it was hard to read the signage and campsite numbers in the dark. However, once we found our site, we were able to settle in quickly (with a slight tilt, which we put up with for the duration rather than try to level off in drizzly rain). The free WiFi worked well, which is important for us. There was a row of what seemed to be 10 permanent (or very long-term) RVs about 40 feet away from our site, along the upper boundary of the camp ground. We would stay in this campground again. Also on the plus side, there's a nice little gourmet wine/cheese/deli store about 1/3 of a mile down 250 toward I-64, which is worth a stop. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed in one of their cabins. Nice, except no heat in the bathroom, and the kitchen did not have a sink (as shown in the picture); so make sure you ask about that before reserving if that is important to you. We utilize this campground as a mid way point from WV to Virginia beach. Beautiful area: the mountains are amazing. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.
Roads are very tight and narrow for the most part, We have stayed at this park many times due to closeness to our daughter's home. We would rather stay elsewhere, but have no other choices, and the owner knows it. Some improvements have been made by cutting down some trees and leveling many sites, but more are needed since water flows through the best big rig sites. We'll stay again, but would like another choice. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a great park--large grassy areas for people to walk on and for the kids to play on. Laundry room was very clean. Nice shady spots. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would stay there again if we're in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The grounds were clean and appeared well kept. We stayed in the upper area and were a good distance from the bathhouse. The children had a blast playing in the stream and at the playground. The store has mostly tourist items but there is a small grocery/convenience store about two miles away. The staff was very nice and very helpful. It did not affect us but it appeared a number of sites, particularly those by the stream have the hookups on the "wrong" side making it difficult to get sited. We enjoyed our stay and will go back. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Extremely nice, friendly, and helpful staff. Lots of activities for children. Very clean. Lower bathhouse is the best of anywhere we have ever camped. We have already made reservations for two additional weekends. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This was a nice park. It did not have lots of kids activities, but it did have a pool and playground. We camped right in front of a stream, so our three kids had fun playing in the stream. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This is a nice park close to Charlottesville, right off of I64 on 250. Easy access from interstate. The campground has all the amenities and is big rig friendly..The only neg we can say is that the sites are waaaay to close together for us. The sewer connection is right next to the next space's picnic table. If they would re-arrange their spots and take out a few, they would have an excellent campground. All the utilities worked well. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Pretty park in great location at the foot of Blue Ridge Mountains. Staff great-- friendly and helpful. Will come back here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a decent campground. It's hard to find at night (we passed it and had to turn around a few miles down the road at the gas station). Sites seemed pretty tight. Most of the sites up front are under full tree coverage, good for Summer heat, bad for satellite reception. Wifi was decent, but not as fast as others. Sites and most roads are gravel. For some reason the sewer did not drain well. It was a bit high compared to the rig, but still didn't drain quickly when I lifted the hose. The staff was very nice and the park was quiet. We camped here in a Motorhome.
OK campground. Upper area is a bit far from the office/store. Sites by the creek were very muddy from recent rain and had the water/electric pole at the left front of site. Could be inconvenient. Halloween hay ride was excellent!! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The park is very easy to get to just off I-64. Once you get to the park you will find the 50 amp. Full hook-ups very close and near Hiway 250, very noisy from traffic. The laundry was closed due to painting being done and they had only two washers and two driers and they were not new. The staff in the office were nice and cordual. I would stay there again for a short stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Not a bad campground. We stayed on site 14. Had to level the trailer and most sites were tight. Wi-Fi worked well as did cable. Stay in the lower section of the campground the upper is even tighter and a big hill to get to sites. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The workers were very friendly and helpful. Sites by the stream were very un-level and muddy after a rain. The weekend was very crowded and a little loud but the week days were nice and quiet. The bathrooms and showers were so-so clean and are going to need a lot of work this winter, paper dispensers and towel racks ripped off of the walls. Overall a decent park if you're going to be in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice, shady campground. Somewhat steep access road to the upper level sites but not a problem. Clean, tiled bathrooms. Sites relatively level but not perfect. Picnic table, fire ring. We camped here in a Truck Camper.
Excellent campground. Facility was nice and clean, sites were a little hard to get into but the faculity made up for it. Nice pool and fishing pond. Highly recommend staying here. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice campground at the foot of Afton Mountain. Sites were spaced a little tight in the lower section but we could still put out all the slides and the awning with room to spare. We toured the upper section in the Jeep. We're very glad not to have gotten a site up there! Very steep hill to climb with tight turns. Once you are up there the sites looked a bit tight. Some would have been a challenge to level on. This area is mostly for the Class C and smaller trailers. The staff and campers were all nice. This was definitely a good base camp to tour Skyline Drive from. The WiFi worked fine at our site (#18) but we could not use the satellite dish due to trees and other obstructions. The campground does have cable with 13 channels with fair reception though. The playground equipment looked brand new. The pool was a little small and very crowed due to the HEAT! Thats was to be expected. The gameroom was fun. We'll be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is a bit too primitive in its care of the facility. The overall look is disheveled, and somewhat dirty. The personnel were not the friendliest. Campsites are not numbered, at least where they might be visible. We have no idea if we were in the right site or not. We will not return We camped here in a Motorhome.
No problem parking our 37.5 foot Damon, the sites are tight, but we had no problems.
Charlottesville is about 12 miles away, with easy access. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here in 40' motorhome during winter/spring 2002-2003. Campground is open all
year. The owners were very accomodating. Quiet hours were observed. Propane is available on site, you can rent large cylinders for long term stays. Snowplowing was always done very early AM. Well water - tasted fine. Open and wooded sites available. Pull through sites in front area are level with table on concrete pad, 50 amp service, fire rings at all sites. Owners have plans to add cable TV. Until then bring your satellite dish - local stations are very hard to receive with just antenna. Well behaved pets, large and small are welcome. Sites on the back hill are accessible but I would not want to attempt with large/long units - hill is steep but road is well maintained. Some camping cabins. Hours maintained by staff during winter months are slightly erratic, probably due to there not being much activity during winter. Nice little hiking trail. Video game room for kids. Sub and bakery shop closed during winter. Activities are scheduled throughout the spring/summer/fall months. Campgrounds were always kept clean. Easy access to Charlottesville - great place to stay for UVA games. We will definately go back again to enjoy the summer months. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The folks running the place were nice enough, as were our neighbors. However, there wasn't
strict enforcement on the quiet hours, and our site was close enough to the road that the trucks rumbling up and down were disturbing. Also, someone had one of those Dukes of Hazzard horns, and thought it was charming to blast it about 50 times a day. Also, the bathrooms are new, but b/c there are so few of them, they needed to be cleaned more often b/c every time I used one of them, they were filthy. It was nice to have the creekside site, though. We camped here in a Tent.

The campground was very clean and the staff was extra friendly.I think it would be better if it had cable and fishing, then it would be a 10. We camped here in a camper.

Campground was clean and attractive.The staff was very friendly. The sites we were in had concrete pads for the picnic tables. If it had some type of cable hook up and a pond for fishing I would give it a better rating. We enjoyed our visit and may go back in the future. We camped here in a camper.
