After reading the not so favorable reviews about the reservation system that this campground uses, I called and confirmed my reservation twice, just to be sure. Since we were going to arrive after the office closed, we were told a note will be left on the office door for us telling us which site we had. As promised, there was a map with our site highlighted, and the best way to get to it was also highlighted. We had one of the parallel pull through sites. There was a trailer already in front of our site and one already in back of our site. Pulling into our slot was not difficult although it was close to their landscaping rails. The next morning we stopped by the office to check in and we spoke with an owner about our concerns about the reservations system and why I had called twice to confirm. We had absolutely no problems with our reservations. Our site had a beautiful view. The sites are nicely spaced and you get a feeling of wide open green spaces because the center of the park is very much like a park. They have a playground for kids, a pavillion, and yurt (where they had singing on Saturday night). The restrooms were clean. This campground is very well maintained and off the beaten path, surrounded by farms. We are very happy we stayed here and will return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is an immaculately maintained mid-sized rural campground with great scenic views of the mountains from virtually every campsite. Located 2.8 miles from Luray, virtually all noise of civilization (the occasional faint drone of a truck in the distance can be noticed late at night). This park is an exception to the "rule" that all campgrounds must be within hearing of a railroad. It does have an Internet cafe in the office building (the rate was $2 for the 1st hour, and $1 for each hour thereafter). Were this not such an excellent place we'd consider the daily costs excessive. The rate cited was the Good Sam member rate including taxes. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice, clean campground. We had a large group of 9 people including our 4 grandchildren and the owners were very accommodating. Our site was huge and they allowed us to park 3 vehicles on the site and put up a tent in addition to our trailer. They put us right in front of the playground which was great for the kids and for us to be able to keep an eye on them. Only reasons I did not give this campground a 10 were: 1) the bathroom and showers were very clean but only had 2 mens and 2 womens showers stalls for the entire campground. At times we had to wait to shower. 2) The swimming pool was quite a distance away, down a very large hill near the office with no parking available. With 4 small kids and a bum knee, it was an issue. Other than these two issues, it is a great campground and we will go there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Quaint and charming campground! This was our first time staying here but will not be our last. We usually stay at the Jellystone Campground when we're in Luray. One weekend that we were there, we drove thru Country Waye to check it out since it had received such good reviews on this website. The day after getting back home we called Country Waye to make reservations for the following weekend. It is a peaceful and quiet campground surrounded by farmland and pasture. Typical sounds at the campground: children laughing and playing, birds chirping, cattle moo-ing, occasional dog barking, and the buzz of insects at night. No golf carts running up and down the campground. We were in some of the newer sites, and they were very long. Thankfully we didn't have anyone on either side of us to block the beautiful mountain views. This is a small campground so don't expect some of the amenities that the larger RV resorts offer. But our children (7 and 4) had just as much fun there as anywhere else -- maybe more so since we gave them more freedom to do things independently (you can see the playground and whole campground from just about any campsite). We were impressed by the cleanliness and "homey" feel of this campground. And remember I mentioned hearing the cattle? That was the only drawback -- when the wind blew just right you could smell cow poop. But, that comes along with the rural setting of the campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very clean, very quiet park. We camped with 2 other RV's and the owners were most gracious in placing us together in our own little piece of the campground. We were treated very well and the owner stopped by everyday to see that we were enjoying our stay. We would definitely stay here again. The only improvement would be the addition of cable TV service.

A good campground. I'd rate it higher if it had paved roads and true pull-thrus. They are adding about 20 new sites and all will be pull-thrus. And a clubhouse expansion is in the works. I did not like the 'parallel' pull-thrus. The grade getting into them could be a challenge. There has been little rain this year consequently the roads are dusty. I had to get the car washed after pulling in the driveway. Rather pricey at almost $40 per night. I stayed here to visit a relative in Fairfax - 80 miles each way. On the way I found the Greenville Farm Family Campground in Haymarket - only 25 miles - I will use it the next time. Greenville now has about 10 pull-thrus with 50 amp service. And $25 per night. A bit more primitive though. We camped here in a Motorhome.

First off, I must say that I really like this park. It is very quiet with some nice mountain views and the sites are roomy and not real close together. It is convenient to almost everything in the Luray area. However, my problem with the campground is the way it is managed. We have stayed here twice and both times have had problems with the office. The first time, the owner would not honor my Good Sam or AAA discount because it was a holiday weekend. The second time, I reserved 2 particular sites on a Monday and was told by the owner that they were mine. However, when we got there, the one site was unavailable and my in-laws were forced to stay on a site away from us for one night and then move to the site on the other side of ours (not the one we originally booked) for the second night. When I inquired about why the site I booked on Monday was not available on Friday, she said that she could not ask the guy in the Class A that was currently on the site to move. But, she had no problem asking my father-in-law to move his trailer which is a lot more work. So, basically, if you book a site (or a group of sites) at this campground just know you are guaranteed a site in the park and not the particular one you asked for. And, if you have a Good Sam, FMCA or AAA membership, don't expect to get the discount on any holiday weekends (even though their website lists no exclusions). This could be a great campground if it were properly managed... We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice park with a very good view of Blue Ridge Mountains. Roads in park are gravel, sites are level with gravel. Nice size trees in park and some sites have shade. Park was very clean with great yards. Free WiFi worked but Sig. level was very weak and very slow on our site. Playground equipment for the kids. Some dust off gravel roads but not too bad. Small amount of road noise off Hwy. 340. Owners were helpful at check in. We camped here in a Motorhome.

If you are looking for a campground that is clean this is it!! The owners are extremely nice and they went out of their way to make us feel at home!! When we got there, she gave us pleanty of information of things to do and see in the area, This was the absolute best campground we have ever been to and we will definately go back again!! It is very quiet and we all loved to see the cows and the sheep nearby. And before you ask, no there wasn't a smell. We were here with a pop-up. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This was the first time we've camped at Country Waye, and we loved it. The owners were friendly, and gave us a lot of information regarding local things to do. The campground is very clean and well-kept. We chose a site parallel to the fence line, which was a great site. We had a wonderfully peaceful weekend. I would rate this campground a "10", except for the steep uphill grade that takes you from the office area up to the campsites. It is gravel, and on a somewhat blind curve....we wondered what would happen if two rigs were trying to use that hill at the same time. We will definitely return here again.

We stayed here for 3 months (May-August 2005) and would definitely return! This is a quiet campground, but family/kid friendly, with plenty of space to play. The sites are large; we had a pull-thru with mountain views. The park is very pretty, neat and clean; the restrooms and laundry room were spotless. It is obvious the owners care about their campground, and are continuously updating sites and amenities. This is one of the best campgrounds we have stayed in! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The views from our hilltop site, the peaceful atmosphere, the clean pool and the spotless bathrooms and laundry room were all top-notch. We are repeat campers here and always enjoy our stay. Free wi-fi access is definitely a bonus. The only snag this time was a problem with our reservation. They showed us arriving on a date other than the one we had reserved. They did accommodate us anyway; however (considering some of the previous negative reviews on this subject) I would ask for an email confirmation next time, or maybe call again before our trip to confirm.

This park does have some great views. However, the side by side pull thorugh sites are rather small,a little difficult to enter without damaging landscaping and not too well suited to outdoor use. The few sites running parallel to fence line on west side are very good. Other sites spread around have no real views of the beautiful terrain. The worst problem is extremely dusty entrance road used to reach and leave sites. It coats engine radiator (and coach) setting up the potential for engine trouble and makes a mess of vehicles. I found female owner both charming and off putting at times. The later when she obviously is not pleased with some aspect of your plans like staying only one night in a parallel site or changing a reservation. Stayed here a number of times over last 12 months. Like it but I keep looking for an alternative due to road condition. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice owners and beautiful view of Shenandoah Nat'l Park. Site was a bit tight to back in to. Some sites are being lengthened with railroad crosstie but have had no fill dirt added which caused problems trying to stabilize camper. They said they are intending to fill in soon, but should have given me a longer site. Extremely quiet camprgound and emaculate bathouse and laundry. Kid's playground needs some serious work and very run down versus picture on website. I would stay there again if in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This campground is awesome and very high on our list of favorites. We are full timers who travel with two golden retrievers (not the smallest dogs around). We have very much enjoyed our stay here and will be back anytime we are in the area. Our reservation, made three months prior was handled very efficiently, even when we called to see if we could come 2 days early and then asked how late the office was open. The owner was fantastic, answering, ”Of course we can accommodate you and don’t worry about when you get here, when you arrive, we will make you comfortable.” Now that’s an answer! The dogs were also welcomed, but of course we pick up after them! The spaces are separated nicely with plenty of room for us with 3 slides and a dually pickup, have very level bases, a picnic table, fire pit and easy hook ups. The campground is located at the top of a small hill with a well-maintained drive. The view from our windows is hills to both sides with farmland between; I imagine it must be spectacular in the fall. It is 6 miles from a super Wal-Mart and easily accessible from Luray. I do suggest bringing your satellite dish since the local channels are pretty sketchy. I chose this from the Trailer Life book and encourage you to make the stop if in the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is just a wonderful campground. Beautifully maintained, incredible views of the mountains - this is what camping in an RV should all be about. We spent a week here while hiking in the Shenadoah National Park. This is not a place where you will find an hourly list of activities, but rather a gorgeous place where you are right next to the national park, but have the ease and comfort of full hookups. This place is near the top of my list of wonderful campgrounds. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Reading all the reviews, I'm wondering if we stayed in the same place! We found the owners
here to be very pleasant, but the rest of what we experienced here was very ordinary. The actual campground is off the beaten path several miles from the interstate which can be very good, however, there are some steep hills to climb and desend in order to get there. Once you arrive, you must climb another steep hill in order to get up to the actual sites. Once up there, the views are pleasant. We did find it somewhat difficult to get into our site which was barely wider than the RV and had landscaping ties all along the sides that were difficult to avoid hitting while pulling in and out. I wouldn't avoid going back, but I'm not sure I would rush back either! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We have stayed here before and it was nice but the last time they lost our reservations
too. In fact they came and apologized but gave the site to a regular customer not us. Not the way to run a business. We have been there many times but no more. I think they need to improve their reservation system to solve this. It is a nice campground but you don't know if you have a spot till you are in it even if you have a reservation.

We made a reservation and we had to reschedule for another date. When we arrived on the
rescheduled day they did not have our reservation and they claimed they were full. They apologized and remembered our reservation but did nothing to accomodate us. WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT. I personally believe they cancelled our reservation because we rescheduled. It really appears they are dishonest and take rescheduling as a personal attack on their campground. They will NEVER get my business. My family had to return home because all the other campgrounds were full. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Some years ago, I met an elderly man who, along with his dog, had been RV'ing for over 30 years. He told me that he loved it, and said that his idea of heaven was a perfect RV park somewhere in the great beyond. I can't know for sure but I would not be surprised if, when he goes, he wakes up in this park. Country Waye is not your usual RV park. The sites are huge, the open area is vast, and it sits in a green oasis in the Shenandoah Valley, overlooking some of the most beautiful mountains you have ever seen. The sites are level, the roads and sites are heavily stoned, and the view from every single site is heavenly. The park can accomodate the largest rigs. The owners have provided an internet cafe inside the office/store area and, most unusual this day and time, have satellite hookups and free Wi-Fi for guests. And guests are what they consider their visitors--not just paying customers. The owners serve up all this beauty, peace, and solitude with a helping of great love for what they do, and for the people who choose to stay with them, and they keep the place immaculate. They are superb people. The park offers a playground for children, a nice pool, a large field for sports, a pavillion, fire rings, a picnic table and a patio at every site, and more. The park is near Luray Caverns and dozens of other attractions, yet it could be in the middle of nowhere it is so quiet and peaceful.You will fall in love with this place. We will be back time and time again! We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park is fabulous!! It is alittle piece of heaven here on earth. The view of the Shenandoah and George Washington National Parks is spectacular. The sites are large, with shade trees on every site. The bathhouse is very clean and is being expanded this summer (2004). The owners are wonderful, they care about the campers, and look out for everyone's belongings. We watched the owner work for an hour to fix the awning on a fifth wheel that had been damaged during high winds. We will definately go back!!

The campground is surrouned by farm fields and very peaceful and quiet. Easy acces to Luray Caverns, Shenandoah National Park and there is a Wal-Mart Super Center 6 miles away. What more could you possibly ask for. This campground is a must visit choice.

The rate quoted above was the "Big Rig full hookup rate" and the "Full Hookup Site" is $28. They have a very clean bath house that is centrally located. They have wonderful mountain views and nice level sites. They have been upgrading the sites to more 50 amp sites and have opened a section of big rig pull thru sites with wonderful views. They have live entertainment on Saturday nights in season and have just installed a WiFi and repeater for a Directway internet hookup and it is free. It is a park that is quite and really caters to adults and families that do not need the park to babysit their children. I don't want to implie they don't welcome children, just that they don't have much other than a small pool and playground to entertain them. They had a Boy Scout Troop camping there this weekend in tents and they had a good time. It is close to Luray Caverns and the Skyline Drive. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The Country Waye is one of the finest campgrounds we have experienced in 5 years of RV'ing. The owners are wonderful people who truly love their home and want to share it with their guests. The bathhouse is the cleanest we have ever seen. The impromptu sing-alongs around campfires with the wonderful folks who keep coming back to this special place are really fun. There is an internet cafe for those who can't get away from the 'net. This is a special place for folks who like people and love beautiful views. You can't do better than this.

After reading the not so favorable reviews about the reservation system that this campground uses, I called and confirmed my reservation twice, just to be sure. Since we were going to arrive after the office closed, we were told a note will be left on the office door for us telling us which site we had. As promised, there was a map with our sight highlighted and the best way to get to it was also highlighted. We had one of the parallel pull through sites. There was a trailer already in front of our site and one already in back of our site. Pulling into our slot was not difficult although it was close to their landscaping rails. The next morning we stopped by the office to check in and we spoke with Shulamit about our concerns about the reservations system and why I had called twice to confirm. We had absolutely no problems with our reservations. Our site had a beautiful view. The sites are nicely spaced and you get a feeling of wide open green spaces because the center of the park is very much like a park. They have a playground for kids, a pavillion, and yurt (where they had singing on Saturday night). The restrooms were clean. This campground is very well maintained and off the beaten path, surrounded by farms. We are very happy we stayed here and will return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Initially booked 3 nights, but stayed an extra 3 nights it was so nice. What a lovely location with good size pull throughs. The site is situated in a very scenic area and is so quiet and peaceful. Very helpful owner - we picked which site we liked with the best views (overlooking mountains) and she provided us with hiking guides for the area. Why can't more campgrounds be like this? Even though we had some rain during our stay, still a pleasure to visit. Services all excellent with WiFi service from trailer. Cable TV at this campground would have been a bonus. Only a few channels available on antenna. Would recommend this campground to anyone visiting the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

WOW!!! Driving out to the cam[ground, I had no idea I would see the spectacular views that this campground has to offer. Looking any direction you have beautiful views - rolling hills, mountains, green pastures - reminded me of Nova Scotia. It is apparent the owners truly care about their campground and their campers. The grounds are extremely clean, especially the bathrooms and laundry. There are new pull-thru sights, complete with landscaping. What a great place to spend time!!

This campsite was in a beautiful location nestled in between the Shenandoah mountains. The town of Luray was only a short drive away. The folks running the place were friendly and helpful. There is no pond or lake for fishing. The restrooms were clean, but small and there was a line waiting to use the showers (only two shower stalls). I believe they are in the beginning stages of building new bathrooms in the back of the campground. I would stay here again in the future. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This campground is absolutely fantastic! We were greeted as family friends. It is situated in the most scenic spot, surrounded by the mountains. The place is immaculate, the washrooms and laundry room are cleaner than a lot of private houses! We will definitely make a detour to go there again. The lots are large and perfectly leveled.

This is one of our favorite campgrounds in the valley. We come in the fall when it's "apple time". This campground is small and quaint with lush green manicured sites. The views of the mountains are breath-taking especially after a rain shower when a rainbow stretched from one peak to another. I would not recommend this campground if you have children as there is very little to keep them entertained (which is why we love it so much). It's quiet, peaceful and just downright relaxing. They do not have cable which for some is extremely important but for us not a problem at all. We take this time to catch up on reading and just getting away. We don't use the restroom facilities so I can't comment on them. Just the beauty of the campground is reason enough to visit this gem tucked away between the mountains. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was a very pretty, clean, quiet campground with lots of space, and it was a great base for exploring the Shenandoah Valley and National Park and surrounding area. The owners were very nice and helpful. The roads and sites were gravel. The sites had a table and fire ring. Some previous reviews mentioned that the parallel pull through sites were a little hard to get into because they were a bit curved. However, there were also regular pull through sites that were straight, long, level and easy to maneuver into. The showers were very clean, but I don’t think they were heated. The pool wasn’t open yet. There were only 2-3 TV channels and reception was poor. The WiFi was free but weak. It looked like they were building new spaces. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice and clean campground. The bathrooms were very clean. The sites were well laid out with ample room between sites. A lot of sites were pull through or "paralell" pull through. This left you with a good view of the mountains. There is a field in the center with a pavilion, playground, volley ball nets, etc. Many sites are right on the edge of the field so you have a good view of your kids while they play. Hill up to the campground was not a problem. Road was gravel but well maintained. We plan to return to this campground. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is our third time here--peaceful,views to die for, immaculate,staff are friendly and helpful. Not much for children to do,just a small pool and playground, but a great base for sightseeing or just kicking back. Sites are spacious,wifi is free. Mountain views on two sides, and farm views make this one of our favorite places.All the sites appear to be good ones. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We hadn't been here in a couple of years but it hasn't changed much. Lots to do for the kids, the park is clean and seems well managed. We had a "super site" this time, which this early in the year is the same price as a regular FHU site but you get a concrete patio. It's nice but the sites are very close together and the regular FHU sites look a little bigger. We will go back when the pool and water park are open. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We went for their Halloween weekend. The kids enjoyed the trick-or-treating and the Haunted House. But, other than that my husband and I didn't particularly enjoy our weekend of camping. We've been to this campground several times before, but this was without a doubt the busiest we've seen it. Due to shortage of rain, the roads were extremely dusty. Golf carts going back and forth didn't help. Even the inside of our camper had a layer of dust. It's somewhat disappointing to never see improvements to the roads when it's obvious they're raking in the money. I think this would be a cool campground to visit during the week in the summertime. But, I'm not sure if we'll waste our money on another weekend there. Just not our cup of tea -- way too crowded and quite a few campers were very disrespectful of their fellow campers by disregarding quiet hours. There's a great campground (Country Waye) just 3 miles down the road that is cleaner, classier and quieter. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park is very accommodating and very well staffed! We were greeted and escorted to our site with friendly staff members. The sites were very large and unrestricted to space. Beautiful mountain views were reminders of a first class luxury resort. Although the water slide was closed my children enjoyed the 3 pools!! Excellent campground and booked for next year already.

There were so many things for our kids to do at this park. We camped in the upper area of the campground, and did not notice the golf cart problems that others have experienced. The playground is nice, as is the pool. The fishing pond was algea covered, so it was hard for my little ones to cast that far on their own, but they still managed to catch a fish. Now that summer was over, I asked my 4 and 3 year olds what the best part of their summer was, and they both state that "Raising the Flag with Yogi" was tops! We will definitly go back next year.

Great park - wouldn't have made our 9th trip back otherwise. Obviously some don't catch on to the name and are surprised by this being a family and kid-friendly park. My kids love each trip, everything from the waterslide and pools to the numerous activities planned and well-run by the staff. Never a problem with level or foot traffic, but we always ensure a spot on the upper part of Woodland Way. ;) We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a very nice park. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The sites are small and not very level. We had to raise the front tires about 6 inches in an attempt to level our RV. The pools (2) were nice and well maintained. The water slide appeared to get lots of use. This is a very kid friendly park. If you like the sights and sounds of children playing and having fun, this is your park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Campground was nice. Sites were too close together. Great park if you have children. I guess we are beyond that stage and didn't appreciate all the kids & parents walking through our site. We were taught to walk around campsites and not invade someone elses site. Enjoyed being able to rent a golf cart. If we had small children this would be a place to go.

Nice campground. Stayed here in 33' TT on site 168. No rain recently so a bit dusty, but not their fault. Bathrooms and showers were clean, staff was extra friendly. "Ranger" ride around and enforce rules regularly which is nice. Plenty of good tent camping sites as well. Little disappointed by the extra fees for the slide, golf, and paddle boats, however were told they are not affiliated with the campground. I guess they just feed off of it. We would return again, but pick our site a little differently. By the way, if they are calling for rain, do not get the sites in the bottom of hill! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was a shakedown trip for our new RV and first trip with our dog. We chose Yogi/Luray because it is close to our home. Very nice campground and staff. We were there on Chocolate Lovers weekend. Lot's of activities for the kids. Candy Bar Bingo was fun! Water slide and pool were great, although a bit cold, since early in the season. "Ranger Smith" escorted us to our site and pointed out utility locations. ( They all really wear the ranger hats)! All utilities worked fine. Restrooms were spotless even though park was busy. Campground is well cared for. Recent landscaping and parking lot renovations at the front entrance. It was great weekend in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We never left the campground to see the sights of Luray. Too much to do inside the campground! We have been camping for 15+ years and this is first time to Yogi/Luray. Wish we had gone sooner. We will be back in June. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is our favorite campground! Total kid place! Our children especially enjoyed the program at the campground by the Luray Zoo. Besides Luray Caverns, there's really not much to do in Luray. But, we go to Luray just for the campground and to have a relaxing weekend away. We seldom leave the campground once we arrive. There's fishing, paddle boating, mini golf, swimming, hay rides, crafts, and other planned activities. Most of the campers have children, and we've found other campers to be very friendly. The staff is SUPERB. The Rangers escort you to your site, regularly patrol the campground, then patrol by foot during quiet hours. The campsites and roads are all gravel, but we didn't experience any problems with dust. Some of the sites at the end of the rows have larger grassy areas, and I'd recommend you try to get the end spot on Bear Blvd or Basket Blvd if you want more space. Even so, the spots aren't too tight to your "neighbor." Beautiful seeing the mountains, too! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I love this campground! We stayed for one of the Halloween weekends. There were so many activities to chose from and my daughter enjoyed every one! The activities director did a fabulous job and really got into the spirit of Halloween. The view of the mountains is absolutely magnificent, especially with the Fall colors. We are returning in 2007 during the summer season to enjoy the pool. This is a great campground for children. We enjoyed Luray Caverns, which is very expensive, but a definite "must do" at least once in a lifetime. Skyline drive was also very nice. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Yogi at Luray was great!! It is our kids favorite campgound. We stayed for their not so scary halloween for younger kids. So, many activates the kids were worn out. It was great to go trick or treating early and not dark. My 2 year old really enjoyed it and my 5 year old thought it was the best do dance with yogi at night. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The staff is wonderful from check-in to check-out (don't be tardy on check out though $$). Also a good site to camp due to its proximity to Skyline drive, civil war sites, etc. Hooray for Luray!

This was a very nice park with excellent views of the mountains. The waterslide looked fun although I didn't pay the extra money to actually use it. The two pools were nice. One was more for kids with the other being more for teenagers and adults. They had many cabins that looked very nice and well maintained. The only negative I found with this park is that the sites are very close together and offer little to no privacy. Otherwise this was a very nice park. I would stay here again.
