Very nice campground in the foothills. No cable, and only got 1 channel with antenna. Satellite worked, but probably would not pick anything up when trees are leafed out. The staff is really friendly and helpful. Campground must be under new management/ownership as the name has been changed. However, new owners/managers are working hard on upgrading park. Bathrooms are fabulous and look like they've been recently remodeled. They are also laying new gravel and leveling sites. One word of warning. Do not drive the winding country road to this park in the dark if you have a big rig. There are some sharp curves and you need to be able to see clearly to negotiate. But the drive is nice. Park is dark at night and very quiet. We'd definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice campground, clean and well maintained. Camped 4 days with family on site 32. Kids had a great time in the playground. Roads can be slightly cramped. Caught several fish in the small catch & release pond. Will definitely come back in the summer. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park has new owners (the old owner is still there helping out) who appear to be very guest oriented and helpful. The park is well kept up and clean, the staff friendly and helpful. Our granddaughter really enjoyed the hayride and penny hunt. The park is a little tight and some sites are a little uneven but not bad considering this part of the country is very hilly. A nice park close to our home, we will return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Far enough from I-81 that you do not hear any highway noise. The staff was very friendly and kept the park up nicely. As stated before, the WiFi was iffy. We enjoyed an Ice Cream social one night and a pancake breakfast another morning. Our site was #18 and was a very roomy pull through. They definitely need to consider adding cable TV, however we were able to get a satellite signal at our site. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is pleasant for a KOA. The staff is absolutely wonderful and very helpful! The roads seem to get some mixed reviews, but with any experience in driving/towing a big rig the arrival and exit is managable; we managed with a 40ft 5ver. Upon entry you will be greeted with an escort to your site, and any help if need. Overall this place is very clean and quiet with wonderful views of the mountain sides and Shenandoah Country. This campground could be a 9 or even a ten with cable, better WiFi, game room, and overall updating to facilities. The WiFi is advertised as free but is sporatic at best and not reliable at all. We would visit again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice campground. About 3.5 miles off I-81 and the roads are pretty narrow and winding getting there. Nice wooded sites with a fire ring and picnic table. The bathrooms were clean and the store was pretty well stocked. There is no cable and we could only get one channel on the TV. The interior roads are in good shape, but they are tight. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was a beautiful campground, although we found it difficult but not impossible to maneuver in the highly wooded space. The people were helpful. Watch out for the large boulder on the right side of the road after exiting the campground if you have a big rig. We camped here in a Motorhome.

OK Campground, far from I-81, no noise, roads out to CG narrow and narrow in CG as well. Can get in and out with care. Nice shade trees and CG Staff very nice and helpful. Fishing pond on site and several nice areas to walk dog. Could use cable for TV. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed 2 weeks at this campground. We are full-time RVers and I still work using internet and phone. This is an exceptional campground for "campers" in that it was in a beautiful location with great access to National Forest, stream, etc. As for a full-timer in a bigger rig, though, it was difficult. The sites were not level (we found one we could level on our 4th try). The "Wi-Fi" was horrible--it is the older service that has decent download but extremely slow upload. The cell phone reception (AT&T) was terrible. There was no cable TV and only a few stations accessible by antenna--satellite was no good because of the trees. It was difficult maneuvering my 38-foot motor home inside the park (but possible). As I said, an awesome campground when your goal is to "get away". We camped here in a Motorhome.

Interesting drive from the interstate as you get to go though all sorts of hills and curves on a narrow 2 lane road. The internal roads in the campground were pretty dusty as we had a good layer of dust on the toad. The check-in process was fast and had a escort to the site. The site was unlevel and had trouble raising the rear of the coach enough so the wheels would still be on the ground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was a First Campout for our Good Sam Chapter, the staff was very nice and accommodating. The campground had manageable sites and was very quite at night. The bathrooms where very clean. We will return! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We found this park from the highway while travelling south after being delayed in a snowstorm. We checked in after hours but we were pleasantly surprised. We drove onto the site and was immediately level. The showers and laundry were very clean and warm (essential for the cold weather of the season). We were very happy with our stay, albeit short, and would definitely stay there again if we find ourselves travelling through the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed at this campground for two nights. The sites are very small and the trees, shrubs etc are all overgrown. This office staff seemed unaware of the system of scheduling or checking. The sites were also not at all level. We would never stay at this campground again. Just a typical KOA. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We had a great time at our last camping trip in Harrisonburg / New Market KOA near Luray. Very nice camp ground, small sites great for a pop-up and tent’s, quite at night, very clean bathrooms. Nice people that ran the camp ground, they even showed us to our site. We stayed at site #11. This camp ground would be a great place to camp with friends for the weekend. Going to Luray Caverns was a great time and very close. We will be going again to this KOA. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Quiet weekday - noisy Friday night thru Sunday. Local party park for weekenders - but all were friendly and only having fun. Amazing bathroom/shower facilities. I mean really well done. But closed noon - 2pm daily for cleaning (go figure). Owner was driving around the campground constantly on a 4-wheeler which was sort of annoying noise-wise. Sites were nice and shady, lots of pull-thrus, somewhat close together for a campground of this type. Pool was clean but small for the number of users. This campground served us well as being central to the New Market battleground, Luray Caverns (and others) and the Shenandoah National Park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed overnight enroute to Canaan Valley, WV. The entrance to the campground was lovely but very misleading. The campground itself was not at all appealing. There were a lot of "regulars"; campers that perhaps live fairly close by that spend their weekends at this campground or it appears this way. They were a rough and routy group. During the overnight hours there was drinking, cursing, screaming that sounded threatening and very loud partying that went on well into the night. We felt very unsafe and needless to say didn't get much sleep during the night. The sun had hardly risen when we packed up and were on our way. We will never use this campground again or recommend it to others. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Stayed here one night in May 2007. I was pleasantly surprised with the layout, cleanliness and how quiet the campground was. The desk personnel were very friendly and helpful. I had a large pull through that fit me nicely. Nice shady sites with all hookups except cable TV. The OTA antenna could only pick up one station. No big deal as I was here to relax anyway. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very quiet and peaceful. A little tricky maneuvering the road into, road is narrow. Great dog area with lots of room for them to run plus a creek for swimming. Very friendly staff, and they kept the place very clean. The bathrooms were one of the nicest we've ever seen. Our site was a tad small but there were some very big sites in the park. We will definitely return, a beautiful area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Another typical KOA with one exception; the sites were not particularly level. Even after leveling, our water in the gray tank would not completely empty, unless I blocked the wheels. The wonderful thing is that it is remotely located. When pulling out of the entrance, there is no view of traffic coming from either the left or right due to trees and hills. The WiFi was slow and there is no cable and given the hills of VA, the antenna didn't do any good. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground was just OK for us. As we were going to our site, our motorhome met up with some low hanging tree branches..not a good thing for us and not something you want to deal with on your first visit. No damage to our motorhome but it was of concern to us. The sites were not very level for us, roads were gravel and sites were gravel/dirt. Site were close together also. We stayed here as a stop over going to North Carolina. Would not want to stay here any longer than one night. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The CG is three miles down a winding country road that could be a little intimidating on a dark wet night. The CG is rustic but very clean and even though the area is hilly the sites are level and easy to access. The management takes pride in the place and we will return. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This is a little off the beaten path but worth the drive in. These people make the difference. I've stayed here 3 times and plan to make it my home base when in the Shenandoah Valley. Only thing that would raise my ranking is lakefront. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice, quiet, wooded campground. About three miles off I-81. We had a water/electric site. There is a pool and they have hayrides and show a movie on Saturday night in their pavilion. They have a small game room. Nice hiking trail up the mountain, but think it is longer than 2 miles as noted on the campground map. Other than that, not much more for kids to do. We used the campground as a base to explore Harrisonburg, which was about 10 minutes away. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Decent campground. Wooded sites, but a little close together. Office staff was having some difficulty understanding their own computer system, but overall a good experience. Good home base to do things in the area, but not sure I'd make it a destination campground. We might return if in the area again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was our 3rd stay at this campground, and we will stay there again. It is fairly well kept, with roomy, wooded sites. There are nightly movies shown in the pavilion, and the hosts are friendly and helpful. This is one of our favorite places to stay in the Shenandoah Valley. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We have enjoyed this campground several times in the past. It is quiet and peaceful and far enough off of I-81 that you don't hear any traffic. The sites are fairly level and heavily wooded. Staff is pleasant - the only complaint was that one of the employees used a very loud four wheeler to go to and from all areas of the campground. He started this early in the morning as well - a golf cart would have been a better choice...or even a tractor would have been quieter. That was my only complaint. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Easy access, nice and quiet. Graveled roads and spaces, a little soggy in heavy rain. Good spacing on the sites. A little distance off the interstate to get there, but no traffic sounds once you get there. As with many campgrounds, take some ant powder with you. We would go back again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stopped one night in this campground and really enjoyed our stay. The campsite was clean and quiet. Very friendly employees and they were very helpful. It's a nice wooded area so there is some sense of privacy. The campsite was almost full, but they have nice wide spaces. The drive out to the campsite was a bit long and the road was narrow, but overall a very good place to stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is a little off the beaten path, but it is a very nice campground. The sites were large with a natural setting. The people in the office were friendly and helpful. They do have a fishing pond and a nature trail which leads to the National forest. We would definitely go back again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
