Best State Park I have stayed at in Virginia. Rangers really go out of their way to make you feel welcome. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

From check-in to check-out, operation is smooth. We stayed at Red Oak and found site reasonably level, large, and shaded. Bathhouse was easy walk and showers were family style. Plenty to do if you enjoy nature. Checked with canoe livery and they would transport our canoes for very reasonable fee. However, it rained and we opted to head to Appomattox Court House for visit. Fire wood available for $3 for 10 large hunks, seemed reasonable. Only two issues and not fault of campground: 1) had large bee/wasps eating sap from tree at site and some got into camper. 2) We wanted to camp near/next to friends and there seems to be no way in automated reservation system to indicate this. Ranger suggested calling after reservations were in an well before arrival; they would place us close together. It's a bit far from N.VA, but well worth the trip. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great park! We stayed in the Red Oak section - nice large gravel sites, wooded, level, good drainage. Bathhouse was very clean. Tubed on the river both days we were there. Enjoyed bluegrass music in the outdoor amphitheater one night, visited the Nature Center and spent time with a very knowledgable ranger, hiked and biked on the trails. Trails and entire park is very well-maintained, all rangers and camp hosts very hospitable and helpful. Although there is no pool, at both Dixon's Landing and the Canoe Livery there are good swimming areas that all ages can enjoy. We will definitely return to this park! We camped here in a Motorhome.
