This is a very clean and beautiful park. Views include Shenandoah National Park and farmland. Sites are level and the space between the sites is appropriate. Very clean restrooms/shower. Nice dog park for those with pets. Large general activity area. Small pool and playground for those that have children. We do not, so it made no difference to us. Close to the Luray Caverns and the Rt. 211 entrance to the National Park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Actually at 10++! One of the nicest campgrounds we have ever stayed in during out 35 years of camping. It is located in bucolic farmland and nestled between the Shenandoah Mountains to the east and the Mt. Jackson range to the west. The grounds are meticulously clean and beautifully landscaped. The gravel based sites are level and each spot has a picnic table and a fire ring. The hookups are properly placed and work well. The bathhouse is spotless. There is a 2 acre Dog Park, securely fenced and well equipped with bags and a place for humans to sit and enjoy the scenery while their pets frolic. The small swimming pool was not yet open while we were there, but it looked nice. Check-in was efficient and friendly. We can’t wait to go back! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Hunkered down here waiting for Sandy to pass. Site was large pull through and services were good. The only negative was a need to replace the water tap as it was leaking badly. Power voltage was a constant good level. Clean park in quiet setting. Will definitely stay here again when in area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
What a beautiful place, well taken care of, VERY clean and manicured, the views were excellent. We were in space 50 which is a pull-through near the left side of the back of the park. Hook ups were in perfect position; water pressure seemed a little low, but still no problem using the sinks or shower; power was great, nothing showing wrong on the lights of the progressive surge protector; voltage was great, stayed in the green on our plug in meter. We got the 3 major stations (and more) in HD with the antenna, so I was able to watch my Cowboys lose another football game! Staff was super nice, lot was very level, easy to navigate and very quiet, no where near traffic or civilization! Great local attractions, especially Luray Caverns! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed on our trip through Virginia, North- and South-Carolina at several KOA campgrounds. The KOA Luray was the best KOA we stayed at. The hosts and the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The place was clean and quiet with wonderful views. The showers and restrooms were clean. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is magnificent, clean, beautiful, nestled amongst the mountains and could not be nicer! If ever in this area again, and I think we will be because it's really nice around here and Luray Caverns are really worth the visit, we will stay here again! We camped here in a Motorhome.
A really nice RV resort. It became a KOA this year and is the best one we have stayed at. Staff very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. Plenty of space on each site, the views are great. Full hook ups, clean showers, and restrooms. WiFi was touch and go. There is a play area, pavilion, and swimming pool. The park very close to the town and Luray Caverns which are well worth a visit. Would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The Country Waye KOA is one of the most beautiful and well kept parks we have ever stayed at. There is not a blade of grass out of place. It is not a large park (which adds to its appeal for us anyway), which is surrounded by farmland and gorgeous mountains with lots of trees for shade (and spots without if you want to use your satellite). It is quiet and peaceful with wonderful views all around. The Wi-Fi is very slow unless no one is using it and they do not have Cable TV which is the only reason I did not give it a 10 rating. I highly recommend this park to anyone visiting the Luray area. We will definitely return again when we are in that area of VA. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is now a KOA. Owners are the same. Wi-Fi did not work, so we had to use our own Wi-Fi card. Power in campground went out once during our stay. Great sites, beautiful, very quiet. The rate is fairly competitive to nearby campgrounds. Water pressure is indeed low, and some sites not level, but our site was. They can work on making ALL sites level. Will return if rates continue to stay under $50. Very dog friendly and outstanding landscaping. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Have stayed here a number of time and always have a great visit. Hosts are superb. They keep a clean and tidy campground. Sites a fairly level with plenty of room. Significant amount of open space in the campground. View is superb surrounded by the mountains. Will return again as soon as possible. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is now a KOA park and a very nice one at that. Front desk and management are very courteous, friendly and helpful. Pool looked very clean and inviting. All the sites are very clean, level with enough room to move around without bothering your neighbors. South end spots get a nice view of scenic surrounding mountains. The bathrooms and bath-house were cleaned daily and kept well stocked of necessities. Fire pits are a tad on the small side but adequate. A gas station is just down the road and Wal-Mart just north of the Luray caverns. We would definitely return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
I would have given it a 10, but there's no cable TV at this campground. I haven't found any campground store either. Not a big deal for me, but might be for others. Sites are very level & spacious. Quiet and very clean. Beautiful country scenery. Rural setting, miles from the interstate, so no interstate noise. Good internet signal and good speed. I will make sure to stay here the next time I'm in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
I was really surprised that my 3 day (off season) stay was fantastic here. I was greeted by a very friendly lady who for the life of me cannot pronounce her name. I forgot to stop at an ATM before I checked in and she loaned me bundles of firewood until I could get cash the next day. I can't remember a place that I have stayed at that was so accommodating. The sites were immaculate, the view incredible, and the hookups worked perfectly. The only drawback to this place is no cable TV hookups which if my kids had tagged along would prove to be a problem. I think the owners are aware of this and hopefully will make a change in the future. I learned that this campground is now a KOA. I stayed here in early April which was off season and most activities were not happening yet, but I could see the potential. I would definitely return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Good Sam Park. Beautiful park if you want to see the Shenandoah Valley at its finest. And less that 5 miles to the Luray Caverns, Walmart, restaurants, etc. Very peaceful level CG, on a very exposed plateau surrounded by mountains. The wind can be a little wicked so bring your windbreaker. Very peaceful. Rooster will wake you up about 6:30am every morning, and there's a lot of room between sites and lots of grass for your dogs to play on (on leash of course). The tent site areas are very nice. Hosts are very accommodating. The showers/restrooms are very nice and clean, with plenty of hot water to boot. Do not recommend coming down 95 and crossing the mountains by route 211, trip is very, very, very steep. Come down/up by route 340. Would stop here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is one of our favorites. Most sites have very nice views of the mountains. They are level and well-maintained. The staff is friendly and helpful. It is located just a couple miles north of Luray and their well-known caverns. There is a pavilion with some activities and a book/DVD rental area in the office. The store is very limited and has little stock, but they do have firewood. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a great campground, and could be a "10" with a couple of tweaks. First, it would be nice to get a welcome packet for campground layout, etc and include local sights/dining, etc. Big rigs can get around OK, but the interior roads are very narrow, no way 2 vehicles can pass each other. We found the owners to be very friendly and helpful. They take great pride in their campground, the grounds and landscaping are very well maintained. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. Some sites are sat friendly, so if that is important, tell them when you make your reservation. The book exchange is one of the most organized I have ever seen, excellent selections. The signage to the campground is excellent. Overall, a great camping experience. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Have stayed here twice before and will come back again. Have always found it to be a super location. Owners are very conscious about the grounds and the upkeep. Rest rooms are clean and maintained. RV site are roomy and spaced so they are staggered and not looking directly into next one over. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was my first time camping in an RV ever, and what a great experience! I had spent years growing up tenting, and my boyfriend recently purchased the travel trailer that we took out to Country Waye. The area was very scenic, quiet, and close to Luray and the Shenandoah Park entrance off of 211. The pool was never busy, and the crowd staying was older without many kids around, but lots of dogs- I think the families tend to stay at the Jellystone nearby. The owner was very friendly, the grounds well landscaped and maintained - we had a fantastic stay. We will most definitely be back and recommending this place to anyone visiting the Shenandoah Park, and very likely choosing the site to seasonal in the future. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is the best campground ever. It's clean, has large sites, and the view is outstanding. We will go again and again. So excited we found this one! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a very nice campground. Though the site we were given was not level and small for our trailer, the other sites looked OK. Water pressure was good, wi-fi signal was good. The park layout is interesting with a number of nice back in sites. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Most sites look to have easy and level access. Water pressure, electric, sewer connection were all okay. Well landscaped/maintained campground. Though all sites are very picturesque, sites in the 60's offer best view of National Park Skyline and good shade. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This was the most beautiful campground that we have visited, Gorgeous views of the mountains! Bathrooms are immaculate! Owners are very friendly. Sites are spacious and has a great field for the kids to run and play. We highly recommend this campground and will definitely be back again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Easy to get to, friendly staff, quiet and well laid out large sites. Wi-Fi works well. Easy access to Luray Caverns and Skyline Dr. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here with a rolling rally. It is a fabulous park-like setting with level gravel sites. Many of the sites are open so satellite dishes work. The little clubhouse in the middle of the huge grassy field was great for our meetings. The staff was friendly and helpful. There is low water pressure. It is a few miles out of town but we were looking for a quiet rest. We'd definitely come back. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A nice RV park with a friendly owner. The sites are gravel as well as a small patio. The sites have a fire ring and a patio table. Our biggest complaint was the lack of water pressure. Even though the park was nearly empty the water pressure was in the 30# range. It made for some difficulty taking showers. I used my water pump to increase the pressure enough for my wife to wash her hair. The park seems well maintained, and many of the sites surround a large grass area. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
One of the nicest campgrounds we have stayed in. Owners are European and it felt like we were in Europe. Lots of spaces for big rigs but we have a small trailer and felt very comfortable. We stayed across from the playground so the kids had the whole field and playset to themselves. Loved this place. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Wow, what a great CG to explore the Skyline drive. Led us to our very level site with a nice view. The only note of caution is to triple check your approach to the cg. Our Garmon led us in via the south end of Kimball, made for an exciting trip in a 40' coach with 20' trailer. So triple check your approach and meet some nice people at a great campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Absolutely the finest park we've ever been in. Wonderful layout, easy in/out for our 38 footer (with 12 foot trailer). The campsites are layer out around a 10 or 12 acre center grassy area, makes you think it's a huge front yard. This unique layout eliminates looking out your window at another camper. Friday afternoon the park filled up and it still felt very spacious. And NO, we're not related to the owners. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Driving north, I feel the signs marking the entrance to the park are in the wrong place, nearly leading me into a private drive. The pull thru sites are not wide, and they have placed landscape timbers to hold the gravel in. This makes it very difficult to get into the pad without hitting those timbers if you are still towing. Hook-ups were too far forward on the site and trees were planted in an area that blocked satellite and made maneuvering difficult. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Several nights were spent here as part of a rally group. The site was a pull through and more than adequate. Was easy in and out, level, clean, and well maintained. Facilities available for group meetings were most impressive. The campground is located such that highway/road noise is virtually non-existant. Although CATV was not available, antenna reception was bringing in 6 stations. We normally stay in Winchester when visiting, but will now think earnestly of Country Waye instead. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Camped over the long Labor day weekend. Management accommodated a error in reservations and moved another RV to accommodate our (2) class A's being together. Campground is very clean and sites are spacious. We had very good satellite reception. Views are spectacular nestled between mountains. Sites were gravel and fairly level. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice campground. The lady at check in was friendly and pleasant. The sites are large and level. Very quiet and peaceful with beautiful views. Close to the caverns and sky line drive. Would definitely come back here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a fine park that is being meticulously maintained. The on-site owners clearly care a lot about this campground. The clean gravel roads are set off with flower and bush islands that give a great ambiance to the park. While there were few kids around during our stay, the big grassy field at the center of the facility seems to call out for a game of catch or Frisbee. The park uses both long back-in spaces as well as parallel parking pull-through spaces. If you can fit in one of the back-ins at the top of the park, you will undoubtedly be happy. My only nit (besides a slightly elevated sewer outlet) was that the abundant landscaping made maneuvering a big-rig a little tricky if you weren’t in the right location. To be fair to the park, I made the mistake of driving through the lane designed for parking spaces instead of the smaller outside road which would have made my maneuvering easier. We had no problem with water pressure during our stay, so perhaps the prior reviewer who did got a weak site. We would definitely stay here again when we are in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is a gem! There are great views of the mountains, and it is far enough off the beaten path that we didn't hear any road noise. We had a pull-through site that was level. Check-in was a breeze; the owners filled us in on some of the things going on around Luray over the weekend. Had good AT&T and Verizon coverage. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The daily rate reflects an extended stay of several weeks. The owners of this park a just a pleasure to deal with. They are extremely friendly and accommodating. You can tell they have taken great pride and care in building this park. The sites are huge, well graveled, nicely laid out and landscaped. The entire park is meticulously groomed, providing for pleasant views in all directions. It is one of the few parks where there is probably more open space than RV space. Being tucked away from the highway, it is extremely quiet. Though there are cattle on some adjoining land, neither odor or insects seem to be a problem. The campground is just minutes from the caverns, historic downtown and Wal-Mart. Luray also has a very nice walking path downtown just minutes away. The only negative that got in the way of 10 stars was the water pressure. I was only getting 20-30# of static pressure at my site. I didn't talk to any neighboring campers to see if they had the same experience. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Fast friendly check-in. Well kept, well laid out sites. Plenty of space and there are different lots to suit your liking. The views are great! We were here early August and treated to cool evening weather. Has a peaceful mountain setting. Price is a bit high ($50 includes taxes) but as we say, you get what you pay for. Did I mention the views are great? You'll be needing your your grill, wine, and lounge chairs. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The grounds were very well kept, and the view was spectacular. This is a very quiet and peaceful park. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our site was a little uneven, but nothing serious. We will definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was our first of many visits to Country Waye as we have just found our favorite campground. We were greeted with a wonderful personality and it went up from there! The office was decorated superbly; restrooms and showers were very, very clean; the Wi-Fi internet was faster than my home; the grounds were immaculate; our site had a gorgeous view. It was a very quiet and relaxing weekend and certainly worth the 2 hour drive to get here. We are seriously considering parking our travel trailer there all of next summer because we want to keep going back. I would definitely recommend this campground to anyone! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
CG is quite lovely, nice views, spacious, high on a hill, quiet. WiFi is excellent. But the water pressure, started at about 35 to 40 psi but is now down to about 20 or less. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a great RV park. The owners were on site and very nice. The sites are level with beautiful landscaping around. There is a lot of grass and the children and dog had a great time running. The pool, laundry and bathroom, large showers were extremely clean and very well maintained. This is a very well run and relaxing park. The views of the surrounding mountains and farms is gorgeous. We had a great stay and would definitely visit this park again. They have pool and a nice playground. They surrounding area was great for biking. The Wi-Fi was strong. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Excellent facility. Nice level gravel sites with W/E/S. Nice and clean bath/laundry facilities. Beautiful mountain views. Only 4 miles from Luray Caverns. Will go back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
One of the prettiest parks we have ever camped in. Full hookup level sites are wide and long. All sites have fire rings: holes dug into the ground surrounded by landscape bricks. Views are wonderful. Campground is located between two sets of mountains. Has a nice pool and lots of green space. Price reflects 4th of July pricing. We will be returning with our camping group later in the year. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Since our first stay at Country Waye we became family. We see experience the consent additions/improvements to the campground. The owners, weekend activities or surrounding sights, all GREAT. We typically visit twice a year (summer/fall) and usually include friends and family from back home. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was our 1st time camping. We arrived late (Approx 11pm) and the owners had directions to our spot on the office door. The staff was friendly and the views were AMAZING! We will definitely be going back! If all our RVing experiences are like this we will have a GREAT time with our new camper! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Immaculate campground located in the Shenandoah Valley with 360 degree views of the surrounding mountains. Has large, level gravel sites, many pull through sites. We tried several sites during our stay and had a good WiFi signal at each site. An extremely peaceful place to relax after touring the nearby historical sites and Skyline Drive. The owners are lovely people who make every effort to make your stay with them enjoyable and they are eager to point out nearby attractions to add to your enjoyment of this beautiful area. Their pride and their hard work at Luray RV Resort Country Waye is evident everywhere. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We came for two days and stayed for 2.5 weeks. This campground is an absolute gem in the middle of the Shenandoah Valley. You are convenient to the Shenandoah National Park, Harper's Ferry (hour's drive), Luray Caverns, Shenandoah Heritage Market, New Market, etc., etc. The campground is pristine, beautifully landscaped, excellent interior roads, with a good access road from highway 340. We were in the SE corner on the campground and had an excellent Wi-Fi signal. Our site was pretty level and it looked like all of the others were. The owners are from Switzerland and the Swiss attribute (we have been to Switzerland a couple of times) of everything being exactly correct is very evident with their labor of love with Luray RV Resort. We were in site 99 where your curb side is directly on a very large mowed grass field (there are a bunch of sites surrounding the grass field.) Here you are in rolling farm and ranch land but only five miles from the Wall-Mart. You are 0.5 miles from Hwy 340 so there is a little traffic noise during the day, but it is really quiet at night. Maybe once or twice a day you might hear a train horn, but the nearest tracks are maybe two or three miles away in Luray. The water pressure is a little on the low side at about 30-40 psi, but we kept our water tank filled and used our on-board pump to keep the pressure up. If this RV park had all paved roads and concrete pads, I would have rated it a "10." In any case, this is one of our favorite campgrounds we have discovered in 55,000+ miles of RVing. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Campground was very quiet. Not much for children here, other than a swing set. But nice for adults who want a quiet night of sleep. Sites are nice. I would have given it a 10, but was not impressed with woman who I assume is one of the owners. When we asked for a level & quiet site. She told us, "you don't have to tell me anything". I wasn't telling, I was asking. Would have appreciated a little better answer that what I got. Of course, I guess she knows, there are only two campgrounds in Luray, so I guess she doesn't care how she answers to her customers. The campground was far from full. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice park. Stayed 5 days. Quite except of the birds waking up about 4 AM. Bad part was the manure that was put down next door. Not pleasant. Would stay here again if in the area. Not a lot of choice on TV. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We chose Luray RV resort based on previous reviews. I'm sure glad that we did! The grounds are immaculate, the shower/restroom facilities are spotless, and the owners made us feel welcome and at home. It's obvious that there is pride in ownership of such a special place. I would highly recommend this campground! It made our 1st time in Virginia a memorable one. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
My husband and I LOVE this campground. It is beautiful, well managed, the bathrooms and showers gleam with cleanliness. Pretty much every site is a good site and it doesn't matter how full the campground is, it is always pleasant and quiet. The owners live on-site so there is a feel that you are a guest at their home. The grounds are beautifully manicured, lots of flowers in the summer, beautiful mountain views and the view of the stars in the night sky is out of this world. It is a wonderful place for families: but you never get the feel that the place is overrun by children. There is enough space so that everyone is comfortable. Park has a couple of wonderful hosts and they are always making improvements. It is clear that theirs is a labor of love. I can't recommend this delightful campground highly enough. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
I camped here for two nights/three days in late October. It was a delightful stay and a beautiful spot from which to enjoy the colors of autumn. Everything was perfectly maintained. I was camping in a tiny teardrop camper, yet the "neighbors" were friendly, and the staff was kind, helpful, and respectful. This resort is located in a rural area with clear views of the nearby mountains. I would highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a base from which to enjoy the bounties of the Luray vicinity. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This RV Resort is wonderful. We stayed here in the fall, during their quiet season, they were almost closing. So the park was very quiet. If you stay here, expect a very clean park, well spaced sites, accommodates big rigs and is pet friendly. Although we didn't use the bathrooms, they appeared very clean, as was the laundry room. On the Saturday night here, they had live music playing in the park which was wonderful! The park staff and owners were all very friendly and helpful. Only caution, do not drive here in the dark, the signs are small and hard to read and the small country roads make it difficult to navigate in a big rig in the dark. In the daylight, it's very easy to find the park. We'd definitely stay here again! We camped here in a Motorhome.
One of the best we have stayed in after being on the road for nearly 9 months. Meticulously maintained grounds and spacious gravel campsites. Lots of grass and beautiful views. No problem obtaining satellite signal in most sites. Be sure to specify if you need this when making your reservation. The owners are very accommodating and will work with you to be sure you have what you need. Very convenient to Skyline Drive. We stayed 6 nights and hope to have a chance to visit again. Note the website is outdated and does not accurately represent how nice this campground is. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The employees were friendly and helpful. The camp was clean as a whistle. The sites were much larger than normal and the view of the mountains was terrific. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We loved this campground, just wished it was a lot closer to us so we could visit frequently. Our campsite was the best, had mountain views all around us. The grassy sites are another bonus. The owners were very hospitable and accommodating. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We have camped here several times over the years and love it. Like most campgrounds, some sites have better views than others. Our only complaint is that the owners are more than happy to accept your credit card number to reserve a specific site, but your chances of getting the site you reserved when you get there are remote because they have no reservations about giving your site to someone else who is going to stay longer. Solution; we will no longer make reservations there, if the site we want is available we will stop and if not we will move on. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed here over Columbus Day weekend and had a great time. The campground is just off of Skyline Drive and the scenery is fantastic. The campground was spotless and had very roomy sites. There was a live band Saturday night that played in the central pavilion while campers enjoyed the warmth of their individual campfires. This was our first trip to this campground, but we will definitely return. Highly recommended! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Wonderful campground, beautiful setting with mountain vistas in every direction. The sites are gravel with grass between sites, pretty level, and hookups in good working order. There are sites for big rigs and tents, and everything in between. The campground roads are gravel, in good shape, but narrow. Big rigs are fine, but 2 vehicles cannot pass by each other. We did not use the showers or laundry, but they appeared clean. We also did not use the Wi-Fi, good Verizon signal so we used our air card. There is no cable, but there are sites that have a clear view of the sky, just not ours!! The owners and workampers are friendly and helpful. We would camp here again when in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was our second stay at this campground and if anything it was better this year than last. The owners are continuously making improvements and the grounds are spotless. We stayed for a week and every day there were at least two men working on the grounds. The free band concert on Saturday nights is enjoyable, the scenery is beautiful and it is quiet at night. The campground is in an ideal location to tour the surrounding area and see the caverns and the Skyline drive. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a beautiful campground out in the peaceful countryside. The park is well maintained. Our site is level and spacious and the Wi-Fi is excellent. The only downside is that we felt the cost was high. We would definitely camp here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This may be the cleanest, most well-run campground that we have ever stayed at. The owners take great pride in their facility and it shows; from garbage collection at the numerous trash cans several times a day, to spotless laundry and shower facilities to the owners constantly working at fall-plantings and facility upgrades. Convenient to Luray Caverns, the Skyline Trail and numerous other attractions. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Wonderful campground: 5-Star in our book. Very, very, very clean! The owners were wonderful. We never left the campground: it was absolutely heaven. Sites for all and all sites were great. Quiet. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had a great stay at Country Waye. I called in advance, and when I spoke to the owners, their warmth was felt through the phone. They were very helpful in selecting the right site for our needs. It is a very serene valley setting surrounded by mountains. Clean bathrooms and a playground for the kids. Grassy middle area for tossing a ball. Nice pool for playing in. Not for lap swimmers. I would definitely return if I visit the area again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
"We had a great stay at Country Waye!" Very few campgrounds afford the surrounding natural beauty and the carefully cultivated beauty within Luray RV Resort - Country Waye. We stayed a full week in the spacious full service site, quite possibly one of the best in which we've ever camped. There is genuine interest from the hosts in every camper enjoying the stay. With a roomy site, a great pool and mountain vistas in every direction, Country Waye is a destination in itself. The Owners's have invested with their heads and hearts into the planning of this resort, which offers peace and tranquility without being two far from other touristy towns and sites. Although we visited family, took in the sights, rode the parkway, Country Waye is a place to enjoy contentment. Never have I seen a cleaner facility. If you are going to be anywhere close to Shenandoah or actually Page Valley, plan to enjoy and rest well here. Maybe we'll see you here. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We have stayed here twice before, and suggested this campground for our Good Sam chapter to try. Everyone in the group was very impressed at how neat and clean everything was, and how pretty the landscaping looked, even at the end of the camping season. The owners take great pride in this campground, and are very friendly and easy to talk with. They would come out in the evening and make sure we were having a good time. We will definitely return here often. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The landscaping was immaculate and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We stayed for a week and my wife and kids had a great time. The large field in the middle of the campground was terrific for the little ones. Getting in and out of our space was easy, even for a 40' fiver. Everything is clean and well-maintained. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again the next time we're in town. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I camped here with my wife and son for 2 nights. The campground was very clean and there were flowers blooming everywhere. The people were very nice and helpful. Since I am new to RV'ing, I am terrible at backing up my trailer. A staff member guided me to my site and helped me back my trailer into my site. Overall a very nice, clean, and family oriented campground. The reason that I did not give this campground a "10" is because (1) the sites are very close together so there is not a lot of privacy or seclusion and (2) many of the sites were out in the open (not shaded). The free Wi-Fi was nice to check emails, but the signal was weak at my site and internet access was very slow. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice park, quiet, neat, well maintained, small sparkling clean pool, clean bathrooms and showers every day. Sites are large enough to accommodate an RV and a vehicle and are adequately level. We enjoyed local musicians on two occasions. We stayed for 3 weeks and would certainly stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed here over the Independence Day weekend along with five other families in motor coaches. We all agreed that it is a very nice campground and we plan to revisit it soon. You can tell that the owners/managers take great pride in it. The grounds were well manicured, and the flowers throughout the park were in full bloom. Our pull through site was level and spacious with a lot of grass, a patio with picnic table, and a nice campfire ring. There is a large grassy field in the center of the campground where the children played, either on the equipment or ball games. They also have a separate swimming pool area. There is a covered pavilion with picnic tables where we gathered for a cookout (using the grill provided by the campground). After dinner, we were entertained with live music (provided by the campground). On the 4th, from the campground, we watched the fireworks explode over the sky of downtown Luray. The campground is surrounded by mountains and fields with crops and live stock, making a very serene campground setting. They have a separate camping area for tents. To our delight, the owners are very particular about how the campground is run and will not tolerate people who do not follow their listed rules and regulations. We would highly recommend the campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here over the fourth. The campground is well maintained by owners who clearly care about their campground. Small touches clearly indicate this. The fact that the PH, chlorine and temperature are listed daily are one such example. An employee personally helping us back our trailer in at 9 pm is another. While yes there is not a lot of entertainment nearby, the entertainment is nature. If you want a great well cared for RV park to stay and enjoy shenendoah park this is the place. Particularly noteworthy were the clean bathrooms. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is one of our favorite campgrounds. Over the years, we have stayed here several times and appreciate the improvements that have been and are currently being made. Last year we introduced our club members to this campground and many said it was one of the best campgrounds they have ever visited. We camped with four other members of our club over the July 4th weekend and everyone said they couldn't wait until we returned. I would recommend this campground to anyone. To rate this, or any campground, on the fact that you were dishonest in identifying the actual number of people in your party and were caught, is not fair to the campground. The rates are clearly posted on their web site, it you did not like the posted rates, you had to option of going someplace else. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We have stayed at the Luray Country Waye Resort several times over the last two years to include the July 4th, 2009 weekend. It is a very beautiful, quiet, and extremely clean and well maintained resort. Two very gracious hosts have worked hard over the last twelve years to upgrade the facilities and grounds. "It's absolutely beautiful." Luray Country Waye Resort is the place to stay if you are in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed at Country Waye and would definitely recommend it to others and hope to return in the future. The management was friendly and helpful, suggesting various ways we could best make use of our time while we stayed in the area. Our site was shady and comfortable. The campground was one of the cleanest I have ever stayed at. That, the close proximity to Skyline Drive and all its great hikes, and the truly fabulous mountain views, make me want to return as soon as possible. We camped here in a Truck Camper.
This was one the cleanest and better maintained parks that we have visited.Beautiful Views all around.Flies and insects made the trip less fun as they were horrible this year.The management lady was very rude and abrupt with the way she treated us as well as others we spoke with. We will stay at another park next time we go to Luray. We camped here in a Motorhome.
As first time visitors to the campground it was very neat and clean. The site was level, restrooms, pool and laundry were very clean. We did have a problem at check-in with our reservations not being found, although I did call 2 days prior to confirm. The manager asked that I check my bank account for charges and let her know the next morning. Other than the mix up the rest of our stay was enjoyable. The manager was very friendly and assisted us with local attractions. I would recommend this campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Beautiful campground with very large level graveled sites, quiet, expansive lawn, outstanding views of mountains and farmland. However, overall experience was hurt by the grumpy-like nature of the owner-manager compared to management attitudes and customer service at neighboring campgrounds. The unconditional patience and warm regards experienced from management at many other campgrounds are superior in comparison. These polar observations give Luray RV Resort Country Waye a well-deserved overall fair and "bittersweet" rating of 4 out of 10. We camped here in a Motorhome.
If you enjoy the TV show "Big Brother," this is the campground for you! The lady running the place is keeping an eye on you from the moment you step foot on the campground. I should have known something was up when the owner called me a week out asking if I would send a check instead of using credit card because she didn't want to pay the card fee. When we arrived, we realized three nights was probably a bit much for this resort...Don't get me wrong, Luray Caverns and the mountain views were wonderful, but I could have enjoyed those camping at the Walmart parking lot. The campground is basically a grassy field with gravel sites, our site was fairly level and easily accommodated my 43 foot DP. I saw other sites where the gravel could not support the RVs and many wood blocks were needed to make things level. There is a big grassy courtyard that half the park opens up to, at first this seems nice, but soon you realize this is the breeding ground of a variety of insects that at night come to life and swarm anything with light. The other purpose of this lot is for the management to walk around checking for any unpaid visitors or guests. The management seems to be a little predjudice toward big rigs, if you have a tent full of people she tends to waive the $6 per person visitor fee, but if "you can afford an RV," look out, she'll try to nickel and dime you to death! And if you booked three nights and decide only two are needed to see the caverns and city, don't bother asking them to shorten your reservation, she's likely to start ranting and raving in incomprehensible English in 10 minute intervals...then, just when you think she's done and walking away, she'll turn around and rant some more, to the point you want to run into your RV and lock the door. I especially pity the family next door, they had about 6 kids ($3-$6 each in addition to $47 a night)...The manager was watching those kids like a hawk. I don't know about you, but when I camp I like to be a little carefree. If you decide to stay here, be sure to check your receipt and be sure to draw your blinds...as the management will be watching! We camped here in a Motorhome.
It is basically a nice park with large, level sites. It is beat and clean. The main problem was with management. We came in with three motor homes with prior reservations made at the same time. We were charged two different rates between two of the units and the Good Sam discount was not honored even though we were told it was a Good Sam Park when reservations were made. We were told by the lady manager that "we had three nice motor homes and could afford what she asked. We will not stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is by far our favorite campground of all the ones we've visited on the east coast. The park is in a beautiful and convenient location. It is immaculate and the staff are friendly and helpful. We will go out of our way to stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This was the best camp grounds at which we have ever stayed. The grounds, restrooms, laundry, shower, store, and pool were in prefect working order and sparkingly clean. The view was beautiful. The mood of the campground was so very rare, it was quiet, peaceful and relaxing. The site are large and constructed so that you have privacy. The employees are considerate and helpful while the owner go out of their way to communicate local knowledge about attractions and restaurants. The Trailer Life guide rating do not adequately reflect this gorgeous campground. If you are camping in the area, this is the best choice. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Having traveled to many RV resorts, this one is the closet to perfection that I have stayed at. Every detail of the resort is diligently maintained and immaculate. The owners are warm and friendly and happily share information about the local area and attractions. She went out of her way to to place us in an area of the park that we requested. Most importantly, this RV resort is a very comfortable, relaxing, and peaceful place to stay where everyone seems to respect their fellow camper. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was my first time at this camp, and had a wonderful time. Clean, well maintained, excellent management. The park only accepts checks or cash, which should not be a problem for any RVer. As an RVer, I find this seems to be the practice with some camps. Do NOT miss this camp for any reason! We camped here in a Motorhome.

WE DID NOT STAY AT THIS PARK. I would have been interested in staying here until we called and were told to send a check for the entire amount of our stay with no refunds, OUCH! I have never encountered a campground policy such as this. At most they may keep one night deposit for a cancellation policy. Also, this was the first time I encountered a campground not taking a credit card. Not to mention I was hung up on when I declined the reservation! Seemed to get great reviews, but I have lost interest, based on my reservation encounter. I expect if you can get over the the reservation portion the place is fairly nice, but just a speculation on my part. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were extremely satisfied with the accommodations and cleanliness of the campground. The owners were very friendly and bent over backward to give us a site that was close to relatives that were camping here. My husband, myself and our college aged daughter stayed here. Our daughter wanted to use the internet and was very pleased with the quick connection. We were very happy with the cleanliness of the restrooms and showers. It is also close to many attractions. We would definitely recommend this campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Country Waye is a beautiful resort. There are mountain views from every site. The grounds and facilities are immaculate, I have never seen cleaner bathrooms or pool. The owners went out of their way to be helpful and to be sure we enjoyed our stay. The resort is convenient to local attractions yet peaceful and private. I would highly recomment the Country Waye resort to anyone. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Park is in good location and easily accessible. Good play area - open field and playground for the kids. Pool available and well maintained. Restrooms and showers are best maintained I've seen in many years and many states. Many new sites and all very well maintained and landscaped. In the middle of farm country, so many animals around for the viewing, and lots of great pastoral scenery and mountain views on both sides of the campground. Easy access to Luray, including to the Caverns. Good fishing nearby - bass and trout. Lots of good hiking in easy reach in Shenandoah National Park. Wine country surrounds the area. Owners and staff are very pleasant and succeed in making your stay a good one. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The owners are extremely friendly and helpful. We camped here two years ago and loved it each time. We have been full timers for over 3 years and the facilities here are among the cleanest we have ever found. The sites are spacious, some with shade and some not. We would highly recommend this campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Checked in at 8:00 PM, Office closed at 7:00 PM but there was a Map with my name on it directing me to my site. Site was level and easy to access. Had full hook-ups and the wireless Internet is what I am using to post this and was very strong. Campground very peaceful and the views are great. Woke up this morning to the sound of birds chirping. Went and checked in this morning with the camp host Shulamit. She is wonderful lady with alot of information about the area. The Price seemed somewhat steep since I have 4 kids and they charged me $3.00 extra each kid for each night we are staying. You would think that if it was a true family campground they would at least let you have 2 kids and 2 adults with the base price. This is a wonderful campground but I am not sure if I would stay here again just because of all the extra costs to stay. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Clean, clean, clean! We have visited about a half-dozen times since the summer '07, and each time we return we see improvements they've made. I can't say enough good things about this campground and the owners. This is the place we go when the family needs to escape for a weekend to recharge. We take our baseball equipment, bikes, games, etc., and pass the time simply by being together. It's not unusual for other campers to stop by your site and chat for a while, too. I can understand some previous posts complaining about the reservation mix-ups. Shulamit has it all in her head, so it does sometimes cause confusion if her husband or one of the work-campers a signs a site that Shulamit has saved for someone else (but didn't write it down). But she remembers your name if you return, so it makes the reservation process much smoother. There are no bad sites at this campground, so if you can get over the low-tech reservation process you'll be glad you gave it a try. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Fantastic views of the mountains. Owners were pleasant. Sites easy to access and of sufficient size. Cable would be helpful, but local stations came in with antenna. Nice areas for kids to play. Good place to stay if visiting Luray Caverns or Skyline Drive. Town of Luray has a couple of nice places to eat at on Main Street. Would have rated higher if had cable and better stocked store. But would definite stay here if visiting area again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We came here based on the rave reviews. However, perhaps because of the great reviews, I was expecting much more. If you like camping in an open field with no hiking trails, then maybe this place is for you; but not for me. The scenery is nice, but isn't as spectacular as everyone made it out to be. Other than that, a fairly decent place and no complaints. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is one of the nicest campgrounds we have stayed at. Everything was well kept. Each campsite even had its own landscaping. The scenery is beautiful here. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The campground was clean and well kept and beautifully landscaped. The sites were large and level and the access roads were wide enough to navigate easily. It was easy to get to, but far enough from any roads so that there was no traffic noise at all. We did not camp with children so were not looking for activities, but the playground appeared to be nice and was centrally located. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
In 25 years of camping this is the best RV park I have ever stayed in. The grounds are spotless, and the mountain views magnificent. The sites are large and landscaped with bushes and flowers. The layout is unique in that the sites surround a common area that is at least 100 x 300 yards. All sites are graveled and mostly level. The electric, water and sewer connections, at least in my area, are all new . The staff is very friendly and take pride in their park. There is free live entertainment in the common area Saturday nights. The Wi-Fi is excellent in fact I am on it right now. Some might say that there is nothing for kids to do. I disagree; yesterday afternoon into the evening I sat and watched probably 15 to 20 kids of all ages running and "playing" in the common area. No video games, no ipods, no TV, just kids having fun. It was great to watch and reminded me of camping trips in my youth. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is my second review of this campground. I can not compliment the owners enough on their wonderful campground. This husband and wife team are constantly on the move to improve and maintain their "little piece of heaven". First off, they are friendly and make you feel like they truly value your patronage. They provide 50 amp service, full hook-up sites with plenty of breathing space, long pull-thrus, a lush green space for everyone to enjoy and a beautifully landscaped open-air pavilion. There is not a great deal of activities to keep children occupied, so do think about that when deciding whether to stay or not. We particularly love it here because of that very reason. It's quiet, no cable (which enables us to get rid of that TV for a week) and we absolutely love everything about this campground. When I think of peaceful RVing, I think of Country Waye. We come here every year at "apple time". Job well done Owners !! THANK YOU very much: your devotion, dedication and hard work shows and we appreciate it! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A new favorite place to visit. We had a great time at this location. The owners were friendly and helpful. The grounds were very clean and kept. We stayed on Labor Day weekend and it was full, but very comfortable. Many children for ours to play with. The pool was very clean and cold. The country store stock was low. We are already planning our next trip there, and we just returned yesterday. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The sites are constructed to be level and very usable. As stated in other reviews I didn't see a bad site there. The grounds are VERY well maintained, no a speck of trash; the pool had so few users it seemed like a private pool. While I didn't use the restrooms and showers, I checked them out while I was using the laundry and everything appeared spotless. I had very little contact with the staff other than at checkin which was smooth and efficient. Other than the pool and a small playground there is very little for kids to do but overall a very clean, quiet place with great views. Good place to kick back and relax. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Wonderful campground! We stayed in site 63 and what a great view we had. My kids loved the playground area and they also have a covered pingpong table. Had no problem getting in or out of the site would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
What a great place to get away to!! We arrived around 10:30pm and Erich was still up and escorted us to our site. Woke up in the morning to birds chirping and a great view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Resort was full for the Holiday weekend but everyone was respectful. The owners are great, polite, accommodating and run a tight resort making sure that everyone is happy and the campers are all following the rule. One side is surrounded by a nice corn field the other side has a magnificent view of the rolling hill side, mountains and a field of sheep. Wi-Fi was decent, dropped out a few times only do to the thunderstorms that were rolling though. Had a gentleman playing a guitar and singing on Sat night, also they have a huge Yurt that they use for various entertainment (if weather is bad and cannot be done outside). I would recommend this resort to anyone that is looking for a great getaway. Cannot say enough about this place. We will be back numerous times (already booked). We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very clean park with large gravel level sites, there are no bad sites. Has excellent views, friendly staff, good cellular signal, good Wi-Fi, utilities are great, and a nice clean pool. There are limited activities for children. This is my second visit here and the facilities are even better than last year. We camped here in a Motorhome.
When we arrived we had a problem with our electrical connection. The main circuit kept tripping which cut power to several sites. The owner came to my site to see if he could help, and he was able to get everything running. He was very helpful and accommodating. The pool is small, but it is in decent condition. The views of the mountains from around the campground are stunning. There is no road noise at all…it is a very quiet place. There was music on Saturday night in a centrally located gazebo. This event created a nice sense of community. The Luray area has tons to do…we will be back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Very nice park out in the country. Very peaceful and quiet park. The owners are doing a very good job of taking care of the park and have a covered ping pong table, nice laundry facility, very nice pavilion area and the grounds are well kept. Only a few miles from the Skyline Parkway and the Shenandoah National Park. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Perfect. The view, the campground, and our site were all wonderful. Our site was clean and level. We will definitely be back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This campground deserves all its high ratings and accolades. The views are spectacular, the grounds were well maintained and groomed, The bathrooms were spotless and the pool refreshing. and the hosts were very accommodating. The only drawback was the absence of cable, Not only would I go back, I have already made reservations for the fall. Excellent campground!!! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is the best campground I have been to. Very well maintained, a nice separation between the pool for the kids and the campsites, the tent area had privacy off away from the RV campsites, the views from the hill top were great, the wireless internet connection had good power, and the bathrooms had an outside sink for cleaning up quickly without going into the bathroom. The next time I'm in the area, I will schedule a few days here to relax. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This campground is a little paradise. It's only 80 miles to Washington, DC and you think you are a million miles from any turmoil of a city. All sites are beautifully situated so that each one has beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. Green lush farm pastures also surround, and we enjoyed watching sheep and their spring lambs. The campground is only a few miles from the beautiful Shenandoah River, a great river to fish, canoe, or tube in summer. The owners are wonderful and helpful. We recommend this campground highly. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground was great. The other reviews here are spot-on regarding the sites and the facilities. The hostess was neat to talk with. She takes running the campground very seriously. She makes sure guests and their visitors are considerate of their neighbors. You get the idea very quickly that if you were to throw a big party late into the night with a lot of noise that you would be asked to leave. This is a beautiful location as well. Just a few minutes drive from Syline Drive. No problems with reservations here. I called, and sent a check and she had my reservation slip there when we arrived. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here about 3 years ago and returned. Very nice campground. Roads have been improved and they are in very good shape. They had a band on Saturday night. I think the pool is new. Water was a little cold but it is still early in the year. They are adding more sites and I think they are building a new office. Everyone was very friendly, both staff and campers. If you are on a bike, take a ride down the country road just outside the campground. It is a scenic ride through farmland and has very little traffic. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Most beautiful views of rolling hills and Shenandoah Valley. Would definitely stay again. Stayed here one month and did not run out of things to do. Luray is a beautiful little town close by with anything you could need. Laundry very well kept. Owner/ operators very nice and knowledgeable of area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
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.
We had one of the new back-in sites in the New Area. Our site also had a beautiful view, and easy access to the Center Park.

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.
This is a very lovely park, quiet and very clean. The next time we are in the area, we will definitely camp here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
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.
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 here 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 manure. 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. 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!! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
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. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
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 was a unique experience, very quiet campground, very clean, well maintained, beautiful views of the Shenandoah mountains and the hosts cam to our site to talk and to give us sightseeing information. We will go back to experience the fall colors.. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Park was very nice, clean, with level sites, and most sites had good views. It is convenient to the Caverns and markets and shopping. We did not use the restrooms or other facilities. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A very nice campground. They are adding 19 new sites, and a new club pavilion is in the works. Owners are very nice, and Great places are close By! We will return Next Year, with hopes of catching the color changes of the surrounding mountains. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
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.
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.
Quiet campground, nice setting. Bathrooms clean and in good condition. Good alternative to the larger "resort" campground in the area. Pull thru sites for the parking "challenged". Bit pricey but not too bad. Will use it to tour Skyline Drive. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
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.
Nice quiet park. Clean but the road to your site has a big upgrade slope to it. No cable but you can get a few local channels. Prices are a little to high for what you get but overall I would return We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
One of our favorite parks. Very Quiet, clean, beautiful views of the mountains. This is not a place for kids, but they do have a playground and pool. We enjoy it for the peace and quiet. We have been going here for years and would recommend it to everyone. We camped here in a Motorhome.
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.
We were there early in the season so many of the facilities were not open (pool, etc.) but the place is well run with a pleasant staff and nice sites. We look forward to returning again this year. We camped here in a Tent.
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 definitely 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 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 camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great campground! Owner was very friendly helpful and even plotted on a map places of interest to visit. The pull thru sites all seem to be level and the bathroom and the whole campground was cleaned. Great view of the mountains. Looking forward to returning next year. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
My wife retired from teaching, so this is the first time we have camped for a week after August. We chose Country Waye to begin a new adventure, and were extremely pleased with the entire campground, the scenic views, and the very good attitude of the owners. We were not disappointed in any way, and look forward in returning next year. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great camp run by super owners. Definitely a stop to plan on. We'll be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

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. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This campground is perfect for a weekend retreat! The staff were very helpful and extremely friendly. They are currently making a number of campground improvements with all the construction projects going on. We really enjoyed the surrounding area, as well as the nice Brookside Restaurant they recommended! We will be back! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very Nice! The park was immaculate, and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Currently there a number of construction projects going on to make the facilities even better. My highest recommendations. We camped here in a Motorhome.

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 a 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 immaculate bathouse and laundry. Kid's playground needs some serious work and very run down versus picture on website. I would stay here 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.
This is one of the best campgrounds that I've been to. The manager/owner made my wife and I feel very welcome by greeting us with a big smile, a small bill, and a great campsite with a beautiful view of the mountains and valley. The grounds were well maintained, the restrooms and showers were spotless, and the hospitality was second to none. Thanks Country Waye for a wonderful weekend and a great experience!

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 accommodate 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.

We had an excellent experience here. The bath house was in the process of being upgraded. The owners were friendly and helpful. While I was under the RV doing a repair, the first employee to pass by came over to see if we needed any assistance. The pool was small but clean and well-maintained as were the grounds and each campsite. Lots of open space, but our site had several trees as well as a
wonderful view. 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 accommodate 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 a little 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 definitely go back!! We stayed for a week.

This campground is a hidden gem! Our site faces a huge grass activity field that measures
100 yards by 100 yards and out beyond that is a magnficient view of the mountains. Every site is level and very neatly manicured. 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.

Really an Awesome Campground. The Owners are the nicest people I you can ever meet. The campground is well maintained! Our site was really nice, and enjoyed the surrounding mountains. We will be back, Guaranteed! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Staff is wonderful!! They brought by wood thru out our stay to see if we needed any, and asked how things were going. Being that this is there 2nd season there are very little mature trees. They were putting several bigger trees on the day we left. They had an issue with the women bathrooms, but were right on top of it & had port-a-johns brought right in. On the day we left the manager stopped by our site & thanked us several times for choosing them for the Memorial Day weekend. We WILL Stay here again soon! We camped here in a Motorhome.
We wanted to spend the weekend near Luray and kayak on the Shenandoah River. A local livery suggested Outlanders River Camp to us. This is a brand new campground that apparently just opened last summer. The tent campers had the river front spots, but they had to go up and down a pretty steep hill to get to those campsites from their parking lot. Nice frontage on the Shenandoah River. The RV and pop-up sites were located in a flat field, side-by-side. You could not see the river from the RV sites. The bathroom was very clean. There were many tent campers, but in the RV section there were two pop-ups and us. The price per night was pretty expensive: $50.00/night for an RV site. We could have stayed in a hotel for less in Luray. We drove around and visited three other campgrounds in the area and they were all pretty full with alot going on. We feel the high price of this campground kept many from coming here. We prefer a busier campground than this one was. We won't be going back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We wouldn't want to be here on a busy weekend or during summer vacation time, when families with kids are all over the place enjoying themselves, but our mid-week stay was nice and peaceful for several days. The office staff was very courteous and helpful, and the overall facilities were better than average. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I had heard some good things about the Jellystone Park in Luray so decided to try it for a weekend. We stayed one night out of three reserved. Our site was very small, with our awning just a few feet from the trailer next to us. This park is very busy and was packed. I thought the $17 extra fee per person for mini-golf, swimming, and other activities was a bit much. I was unable to use the Wi-Fi, but didn't bother talking to anyone about it. We ended up in Shenandoah and had a great time with much more space. Cons: - Wi-Fi didn't work - very crowded - space between units - extra costs for facilities Pros: - There did appear to be some other larger spaces - could be fun during the slow season when its not so crowded? We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Site is OK size, near bathrooms, on a slant though. Our RV broke down on the day we were supposed to leave. Went to office to let them know, said they would sent a ranger/ maintenance man up, never came. Had triple A come out, useless. Spent the night. Next day no luck, went to office again and mangers only response was that we have to pay. Clearly we had to but how about some assistance and compassion. Family campground I expect concerned helpful people. Next we decide we need to hit up a parts store, we ask the front desk and they say call a taxi. Thankfully a ranger over heard that and offered a ride. Cost of repairs and 2 extra nights stay plus food and they still are rude? Not what I would have expected! Things happen and I know that but offering assistance or not being upfront and rude about needing to pay would have been a nicer way to handle it when it clearly was a huge problem. Just seemed worried about the money. On top of that they need an event planner for the kids. Root beer chugging contest was 2 sips, soccer was 4 cones widely spread with just a ball and ton of kids, not once did we see yogi or boo boo. Oh they had a slime relay that couldn't have gone any worse, not enough slime to even do it! Arcade games busted, pool filled with bugs, slide is just one, not really fun. And for the price they should really not charge for pool, laser tag and golf. I've been to much better parks than this one. Only plus is people in Virginia are very nice minus the staff. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The pros: super nice staff, clean facilities and lots for kids to do,fairly level sites,WiFi and cable worked well. The cons: you are really packed in tight, we were maybe 15 ft from neighbors on either side. Even the red carpet sites were close together for the extra money. We stayed over July 4th and it was packed everyday. I think next time we will choose another campground just for a little more space and less money. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Park was crowded with only 2 or 3 sites empty. Lots and lots of kids. Wi-Fi was OK, but crowded and kept having to switch between 3 different networks. Kids had a great time, but we did have to purchase a $17 pass for each one to play putt putt and use the waterslide and paddle boats. We will return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We are fans of Jellystone Parks. They have lots of activities for my kids. This park was no different ~ 2 pools, water slide ($), 2 bouncy pillows, laser tag ($), mini golf ($), play ground. For many of these, you have to pay additional, but my kids got their money's worth. The campground is clean, store well stocked, friendly staff, escort to site. There are NO seasonal sites. It was Memorial Day weekend so the campground was full. It's close to Luray Caverns, rafting/tubing down Shenandoah and Skyline Drive. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A very nice beautiful view. Would have thought they'd have longer hrs for the concession stand. A kids dream come true. Nice laundry. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I have to say that the activities at the park supersede any other campground in the area. Unfortunately I felt that the rules are not enforced properly specifically noise discipline. Several families close to us played games ALL night long and were very intoxicated. (family park??) This was brought to the attention of two rangers and I was disappointed to say that no action was taken. I took note that most of the rangers are "greeters" and apparently were not in the business of enforcing anything. The kids had a great time, sites were tight, but utilities worked well. I needed to take an extra day off when I got home to get a least 1 night of sleep. I think I would pick a premium spot if there is a next time as they are more spacious. (The regular full-hookups were tight). I'm not sure if I would return...Economy not so good and money is tight I believe I would rather spend my money at a more accommodating park We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed a week at this Jellystone Park. It seems like a great place for kids ages 7-12. Our kids were a bit younger and I did not feel comfortable with our 6 year old going on the waterslide (although ages 5 and up are allowed) so we did not purchase the wristband ($13 per day or $17 for the entire stay). The wristband is also good for the mini golf, laser tag, pedal boats. For a 7 day stay like we did, it would have been a good deal but it seems kind of high for a weekend which is when most people are here. It was very crowded on the weekend but not overly noisy from what I could tell. The weekdays were very nice and quiet. We had a nice level site down close to the pool but most of the sites are on the hill so I can appreciate what some other reviewers said about the hill. I would not want to be on the hill. It seems everybody had a golf cart but us and at $40-$50/day rental, not something I would do and all those golf carts got a little annoying after a while. The campground does not seem big enough to warrant all those carts. In all my years of RVing, I have never seen so many. As far as the scheduled activities, they seemed to always start a few minutes late, but another family complained the water balloon launch was over 2 minutes after it was supposed to start. The free crafts are lame, I think they want you to buy one of the ceramics or pillowcases or t-shirts to color. And they make you pay for Tie Dye even if you bring your own shirt: $3! We tie dyed somewhere else and if you brought your own shirt, it was free. Also the ladies on the staff at the organized activities were not enthusiastic at all. They seemed to be bothered by the whole thing. We had a good time overall and when the kids get a bit older it would be really great I think. Also, there is not a lot of shade at this campground. The jumping pillows, playground and the field were brutal in last week's heatwave. They need a few more of the nice big shade awnings like they have at the pool. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Loved this campground! Spacious, some shaded sites, some weren't. Gorgeous view of the Blue Ridge Mountains, so many activities for the kids. Very clean sites, we had a Red Carpet site with a concrete pad for the picnic table. Plenty of paved roads, some roads were gravel. The store was huge and well stocked with everything and anything. The water slide was a real hit with our 6-year old, the pools were nice and clean too. We have already booked for the 4th of July and another weekend in August. You can't go wrong by reserving here: well worth the money. The Wi-Fi doesn't work well at all, at least not for us Verizon people. But we were so busy, we didn't miss the Wi-Fi. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is the perfect spot for kids. So much for them to do: playgrounds, jumping pads, 2 pools, water slide, laser tag, putt putt, fishing, golf carts for rent; along with organized activities like hayrides, etc. We would give it a "10", except that it is expensive: extra charges for most everything! We had 2 great sites: #200, a Red Carpet Site with full service ($45) and #21 (right across from #200) at $37 per night for that one with water and electric. The kids (5 of them) had the time of their lives. Dog friendly, pretty views of the mountains and lots of birds, including a Scarlet Tanager! We will definitely go back each year. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
My son and I love this place. The staff does a great job. We have stayed here many times. Will go back again this year several times. The view is wonderful. Quiet and relaxing place to be. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We camped here over Easter weekend with friends. Love the atmosphere of this park with lots of activities for the kids. Our site was not level and was flooded from the recent rains, however, they brought stones to try and dry out the site. Most of the staff was very friendly although have experienced rather rude staff on previous trips. Sites are close together but if you request the red carpet sites near the playground, you will be in awe of the mountain views. They are additional charges for almost everything, even use of the water slide, but in spite of that, do plan to stay again as overall, the beauty of the park and friendliness of the staff make it a campground to return to. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
A large park that gets pretty crowded when it fills up as it did while we were there. It fills up because they have a great park with a lot to offer. A little bad luck weather-wise kept the Grand kids from using the "wet" facilities but they enjoyed their "kickoff the season" trip. Some of the roads and sites get pretty muddy when it rains and the extra activity-pass is fairly expensive but other than that I have no complaints and will probably return. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was our first stay at this campground and it was a really great, but there are a few reasons I give it a 7 instead of a 9 or 10. We paid extra for a red carpet site (#10), in a row closest to the office and across from the pet walk area. These sites are so narrow, there was next to no room to sit by the fire and relax. Our firepit was right next to the road and there was no more than 5 ft of grass between our patio and the class A next to us. Some of them had a bit more room, but not much. Not worth paying extra for. Also, there was no WiFi at our site the whole week we were here. I had to go sit outside the office to get a connection. I spoke to two other campers in other areas of the campground who had the same problem. One last thing, the pet walk area was piled high with gravel and mulch piles about 30 ft long. Not much are for dog walking. On the good side, very well maintained campground with very nice landscaping. Lots of activities for kids and a very well stocked store. The employees were fabulous! The rangers were funny and friendly. The maintenance staff were equally good: since we got there during the bad rain storms on 4/16 our site was flooded. Once the rain stopped, they were at our site with gravel and mulch to help dry out the site and got us a new fire pit since the one that couldn't be moved, was filled with water. Everyone here is super nice. We'll stay here again, just not on a red carpet site. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice, well kept campground. There are allot of sites here so it would be hectic and noisy if full. We were here with just 2 other campers. Staff was friendly and the store is well stocked. Shopping is close by. Camp Wi-Fi worked good. Tons of stuff for kids to do. I needed my antenna and amplifier for my Verizon air card. My Verizon phone worked but the signal was a bit weak. Park is easy to get to and maneuver but sites are fairly close together. I'm glad no one had a campfire going in the next site. We would stay here again for an overnight. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
LOVED this campground. Tons of stuff for the kids to do both in the camp and in the area. We did just about every activity available: mini golf, mining, pool, slides, jump pillows, playground, paddle boats. The kids had a blast! Busy campground, but we had plenty of room. Will definitely be staying at more Yogi Bear campgrounds! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice park. We were there during the week so it wasn't crowded. It appeared that there is a lot for families and children to do at the park. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed in a Red Carpet site: Water, Electric, Cable TV and Sewer. Each of these sites has a cement pad. These sites cost more on the weekends. Washrooms and showers were spotless. Staff were friendly and helpful with directions. We will stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We've visited quite a few KOA parks, State Parks, and others in Virginia and Pennsylvania (and in North Carolina). This is one of our favorites. The staff is super-friendly and they take great care of this campground. It's clean and the staff takes the extra mile to make sure campers are taken care of. There is a lot to do, 2 pools, a huge water-slide, activities galore, and a great mini-golf course. The layout of the camp is great too, lots of grass and shade. The campground sits at the edge of the mountains and the view is spectacular. The only downside is that some of the sites are not so level. But overall we love this campground and we will return every summer. We give it a 10 (and we're picky!). We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is our second time at this park. Well laid out and friendly. There may be sites that are not as level as others. This can be said for nearly every park. We took a "Red Carpet" site this time. Up at the top of the lawn. Nice view, level. Concrete pad. We looked at a couple other CGs in the area and for our money Yogi is the best available. What would I change? Probably cut the number of sites a bit t give some more room, although some plantings would probably suffice to give the illusion of distance. I admit I don't like the golf carts. Pools were clean, slide is a hoot. Paddle boat seems to be in good shape. This place is a nice place to visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were first time campers in a Cruise America rental motorhome. This site seemed a little expensive before we arrived, but with all the facilities and activities found to be available when we arrived, seemed not overly priced. Our pitch was easy to get to (we were escorted) and into. The view from our pitch was great looking over the site to the mountains. Both pools were clean and sizeable, our boys enjoyed the mini golf and the water slide, although I will argue with the camps claim that it is 400 feet long. The comfort station was clean and fresh and the store was well stocked. There is no reason why we would not stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Yes, it has beautiful views and nice wide sites. But, we too were on the hillside and the sites are NOT level. Longer trailers will certainly experience the problem of trying to get it level, without having a LONG last step down when exiting the trailer. Better to request one of the premium pull through sites down near the office, which are level. The bathrooms, though not modern were clean and the store well stocked. We were only here over night, so did not use the pool or activities. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Overall this is a pretty nice park with plenty of fun activities for the children. But I only gave it a 7 because I feel it's overpriced and aging. Our site was dangerously unlevel. The first step of our camper was 19 inches from the ground! We had a step stool but it still was quite treacherous, and twice we had children fall and hurt themselves on our steps. I also did not like paying an additional $17 for wristbands for amenities on top of the nearly $60 we paid per night. The putt-putt golf is old and somewhat run down looking and there's only one waterslide that appears to be old too. The cable TV hook-ups were cheaply done. Several sites share the same box so bring a long cable or you can buy one at the campstore. I'm sure they make a killing in the store selling those. No trash pick-up and the Wi-Fi was so weak that we were not able to hook up all weekend. I have higher expectations when I'm dishing out that kind of cash. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This has been our worst experience. We came here because the other reviews said it was so fun and nice. We debated and thought it would be so much fun for our 4 children. The unlevel sites are true. We had 3 wheels off the ground when our levels finally stopped and our front door was 2 ft from the ground. The sites are extremely unlevel and very close together; you will get to know your neighbors. The kids were so excited as we drove in. There are the jumping pillows, water slide, and playground all out in their view. We immediately set up and headed out. The playground is very nice, great equipment for both big and smaller children. The smaller kids area is sectioned off, and pets were not allowed. So far I was loving it . We went down to the jumping pillows and I thought they looked really dirty...but kids are jumping on them, no shoes and its sandy..seemed OK. The kids had fun, but really wanted to go swimming. We went up and got ready. The pool was filthy! I mean realllllly filthy, larger things floating around, the water was murky and cloudy, the bottom was slimy. It was so dirty I was concerned for my children's health and we got out. The slide's water was the same. It was extremely dirty. The mini golf and many sites sit next to the sewage treatment. The smell was strong and foul. The activities are old, and not taken care of, everything was very dirty. The paddle boats were very dirty also, slimy and the pond was covered in green algae. The mandatory life vests were so grimy and filthy it was our final straw. The staff refunded our $17 per person fee for the "activities" and we moved to another RV park down the road. All the staff were very nice, and seemed sorry for the smells and filth. The Wi-Fi signal at our site was strong. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The park exceeded my expectations. My site was not level, but that was the only issue. The campstore is great. The jumping pillow, water slide and pools are nice. All in all: a great weekend. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This campground is awesome. Has lots of activities, especially the crafts. Was easy in and out. Perfect for a short weekend trip. The only thing I would complain about is that they don't have garbage pick up at your site, but I can live without that. The playground and pools are some of the best we have seen at all of the campgrounds we have stayed at. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is indeed a very family friendly park and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. A well run operation. Sites are gravel and quite a bit unlevel. They had very recently painted the water spigot posts, but neglected to tell us, or post a sign! We were only here 1 night and were overall very pleased; we would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a family friendly park. We stayed in a Red Carpet site across from the playground. We enjoyed the two nice swimming pools, water slide, and jumping pillow. Large field in center of park for the kids to run and play. Wi-Fi worked great at our site. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a great time and will return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Rate reflects camping here during the low season. Base rate of $37 includes 2 adults. We had 5 adults instead of 2 adults, so our rate jumped to $67 per night during low season even though both pools and the water slides were not yet open for the season. This campground is the closest full hookup 50amp campground to Shenandoah National Park. This location cannot be beat, this campground is much closer to Shenandoah National Park than the only other Luray RV resort. The campground is very clean, the front desk staff here is much more friendly and less polar in terms of personality. And the views are just as beautiful. The campstore is much bigger, there are cabins for rent here, and large jumping pillows for the kids. The reason why this park is rated a 7 is because the entire campground is located on a slope, and most of the campsites are on unlevel packed gravel. We had to move from a red carpet site (their best one) to another red carpet site simply because the first one was too unlevel. We were able to get close to level with wood blocks that lifted the tires slightly off the ground. The auto leveling system in our coach does not like to work in situations that are too unlevel. This resort would earn a 9 or a 10 if most of the sites were more level for big rigs, such as having a concrete pad for the RV instead of just the picnic table. The wireless internet only works at the pool house, not at the campsites. The cable TV signal was unusable at both sites we tried. Make sure to bring a long cable because the cable TV poles were shared and located every two or three sites only. That said, we think this is the best full hookup campground that is available in Luray and close to Shenandoah National Park, and will return. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We just returned from a really great stay at this park. We stayed in one of the Red Carpet sites (203) overlooking the playground and the field. It was a very, very quiet week as VA was on vacation the week before, so we literally had the campground to ourselves (along with another camper). Great view of the mountains, and great for stargazing. The staff was very helpful, offered us much assistance in seeing the area. Rest rooms were spotless, even after a busy weekend when we arrived. Great area to visit the Shenandoah National Park, Luray Caverns, etc. We'd like to go back when the pools/waterslide are open, to enjoy more of the campground. We'd definitely head back when in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Exactly as others had described. Lots for the kids to do, charges for all the extra's. Jammed as many sites as they could into this park. It is more of a theme park then a campground, as it seems all the Jellystones we have been to (3). Our son is only 3 so much of the amenities are lost on us. However the folks were friendly. The gal at the checkout did seem to understand I wanted to look at all the available sites before I pick one. We were assigned one in the back, which was away from all the crowds, however it was on a hill and while the site was level you didn't want to venture more than a few feet without falling off a cliff. We will probably only come to the Yogi Bear's before and after normal season due to the cost. In a few weeks our $37 per night site will be $52.00 PLUS the fee to use some of the activities. We still prefer KOA for a more realistic camping feel. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We have stayed here about 3 times now, because it is close to my husband’s parents house. Although a nice campground, it is not primitive and there are not a lot of shaded spots, they are more open. It’s not a slam against the park, that is just how it is. We’d stay again because of the location. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Really nice campground. I was on site 208 on the hill and had a nice view to the mountains. I had to add 2 blocks to get my trailer leveled. Water pressure was low in the morning. We played ladderball on the field because there was no room on our site. Bath house is clean. We will camp here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a great park for children. The kids love the jumping pillow, water slide, etc. The pool has been cold every time we have gone but that has more to do with the great weather in the area. Luray is beautiful! This is a great place to stay if you want to do some Skyline drive/Shenandoah Natl park hiking and still come back to full hookups. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice campground with great scenery at the foothills of the mountains. The park itself is very busy and somewhat packed but that being said, they do a great job of keeping it nice. Lots to do for the kids, a great pool, lots of activities. Luray is a fun place to visit also. Check out family restaurant 1/2 mile to the east. Some of the sites were not very flat seemed to work for everyone. We'll be back! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed here over the 4th of July Weekend. Rate is based on staying in one of their Red Carpet Sites. This was our second time to stay here, and it was wonderful. We were in site 208, which was a level back-in site on top of the hill overlooking the playground and pools. There were wonderful mountain views everywhere. My kids enjoyed the water slide, paddle boats, and pools. Everything was clean. New this year was laser tag, which was fun. The only reason I gave this campsite an 8 instead of a 10 was that during "peak usage" hours, I had almost 0 water pressure at my site. I would definitely camp here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was our 3rd visit here, not my favorite place to visit from past experiences. Our site was not level at all, the grass needed to be cut, and people do not clean up after their dogs! My boys did enjoy this trip tough because of the new jump pillow and the pool. I am a mean mom and don't allow my kids to use the water slide, only because it's extra. I don't feel like you get your moneys worth when you stay here. It is very expensive and everything is extra! For the price they charge the slide should be included! The staff is very nice and friendly and will assist you with anything you need. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We have been attending the Halloween weekends for the past 7 years. Bring plenty of decorations for the cabin decorating contest. Competition is fierce!! The staff is always friendly. Cabins are clean and well maintained and are around $160.00 a night. This October will be our first year renting an RV site. I would highly recommend this campground to others. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.
Staff was very friendly, clean campground, tons of stuff to do with the kids. Flies and gnats were a bit out of control, LOL but guess that can't be helped, bring your flyswatter hours of fun!!! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The staff was the most friendly we've encountered. Very helpful and observant. The park was very clean and well kept considering the traffic in this campground. Everyone was very polite, staff and other campers. Our kids had a great time and kept us too busy to call it a vacation. The flys/mosquitos were annoying but that is to no fault of the campground. Bugs are part of the experience. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The campground was clean, and in close proximity to Luray Caverns and Skyline Drive. There were many activities at the campground for the kids, including tie-dying and water balloon launching. There was music at night. The cabin was clean, with nice porch, grill and fire ring. The pool and water slides were great, as well as mini golf. I highly recommend this campground. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.
Great location – within 5 miles of both Luray Caverns and Shenandoah National Park. Friendly Staff with planned activities for the kids. Some sites are unlevel We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is our first visit to this campground and we were pleasantly surprised. The staff is very helpful and friendly. What a pleasure to be able to see the mountains from your campsite. Sites were well spaced apart and campground is well maintained. We will definitely visit again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a nice resort with lots of activities for the kids. Our sites were on top of the mountain and very well shaded (not level, but well shaded) - the pool, waterslide, playground, etc. were at the bottom of the hill where it was much warmer - giving us perfect weather for swimming and then a perfect, shaded retreat back at the camper. One of the girls working the front desk didn't seem to know what she was doing ... she answered our questions without really knowing the answers which caused confusion for us (and other customers checking in). This resort is close to Luray Caverns and Skyline Drive so kept us busy. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice level shaded sites. Really busy on the weekend with locals (no problems). Come Monday we had the place to ourselves. 2 pools and a water slide. Lots for kids to do. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Jellystone is always a fun place to stay. There were activities all day for the kids, so it got them out of the pool and kept them from getting bored. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The two pools were very nice - an older kids pool and a younger kids pool. While we were there, I saw only one open site, but the campground never felt overcrowded - a testament to the abundance of activities. With my family, the $53 was for two adults. The four kids added another $12 per day. So, my only gripe is the large number of golf carts that Jellystone rents out. I understand the ones necessary for staff, but there were just too many that rode around too fast all day long - primarily with kids at the wheel. They continued until after quiet hours and then usually with more kids hanging on the back and sides. All in all, a great weekend and we will return. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a very pleasant place to spend a week. It is near enough to attractions and yet not in the center. We spent the 4th here. o fault of the CG, it RAINED. We did get in some fishing in their stocked pond. The water slide, Mini-gold and paddle boats are available for a $16.00 charge for length of stay (2 weeks?) WiFi was spotty and slow. Also my cell signal was non-existent in the CG. Not the worst thing in the world. Very friendly staff. They actually pick up the ash from spots where a fire-ring was. Our had to be moved and we were genuinely surprised when they cleaned up the old spot (actually two from previous campers) We will return if in the area We camped here in a Motorhome.
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. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Jellystone is very nice but a little expensive. We paid $80/night for 4 adults and 2 kids. It was another $90 ($16.00 each) for unlimited waterslide, putt putt, and paddleboats. I don't know what the ala cart cost would have been. Otherwise, the park is very clean and well run. Some sites offer beautiful views of the Virginia mountains and some sites offer no view at all. We would camp here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Great park, friendly people. My kids loved the pool area and the slides. Spacious sites. We love Yogi bear campgrounds. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This campground has a lot of activities for the kids like most Yogi Bears. The check in was easy and you did have a escort to your site. There are a lot of golf carts in this campground and seem to be all over the place. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The campground was clean, and well managed. Our group enjoyed the water slide and putt putt course. Only thing negative is the gas golf carts, speeding all over the place. They threw up dust from the gravel roads, and coated everything. We will return in the future! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
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 definitely go back next year. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a very large, nice park. Registration was very easy. They escort you to your site. There are a lot of activities for children of all ages. The restrooms were clean but there are only 3 shower stalls in each "comfort station" which is not really enough. We would go back again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice Park employees very nice, Park Ranger guides you to your site. The park was very clean rangers went around policing the grounds for trash and checking sites for unauthorized guest. Lots of programs for kids all day long. Look to revisit soon. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
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. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
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 kid's favorite campground. We stayed for their not so scary Halloween for younger kids. So many activities the kids were worn out. It was great to go trick or treating early and not at dark. My 2 year old really enjoyed it, and my 5 year old thought it was the best to dance with Yogi at night. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We made a repeat visit to Jellystone and, again, had a good experience. The kids enjoyed the activities, mini-golf, pools and the water slide. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is our favorite campground. It is only an hour away, so we like to do weekends. It is a great place for kids, teens, and grandparents. And the store and snack bar are unbeatable. Very well run. I have stayed there alone all weekend, and never felt uneasy.(female). Love it, love it, love it! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
A very crowded weekend! The facilities reflected this. This site is a favorite with our kids and close to home, so a good site to perform a shake down cruise for the camper and crew. 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! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This was an excellent park. Great for kids and adults. Views were outstanding. Extra charge for the water slide but it also included unlimited use of the pedal boats and mini golf. I WILL GO AGAIN. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Stayed here during Memorial Day Weekend for the third straight year. Every year we seem to enjoy it more. Already made reservations for next year. Definitely a great family camp ground. Staff were great and the facilities excellent! Looking forward to next year! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We camped in the woods. It was early in the season and pool, etc. was not open but the place was clean and well kept. We were escorted to our site by the "Ranger". Check in was smooth and the staff was friendly. It is close to home and will be great fun for the grandchildren during the summer. We will return. We camped here in a Tent.
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. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Great park with plenty of activities. Two pools and a fun waterslide. They do offer free wireless internet access in the snack pavilion. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is a nice family campground; there is plenty to do for the kids and beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. We like the premium sites best. We camp here at least once a year. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed our stay at this campground. There were many activities for the kids and the staff was friendly. The restrooms were very clean. The only complaint would be that the putt-putt area looked run down - many of the holes had mulch all over them. The water slide was fun - not too scary - the whole family enjoyed it. We were in a pop-up and in site 16 which I do not recommend. It's on a busy corner with no shade and anyone coming into or leaving the campground drives right by you. There were more shaded pop-up spots up on the hill with much less traffic - get one of those and you'll be fine. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We camped here in "deluxe comfort cabins" with a group of families, and were most impressed. The facilities are very clean, the cabins (and campground store) well-equipped, and the staff friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. There are an abundance of child-oriented activities, including mini-golf, two pools, an inviting playground, a well-equipped game room, and paddle boats, and the campground is in close proximity to Skyline Drive, Luray Caverns, and a number of horseback riding stables. Particularly for those with younger children, this campground is well worth a visit. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.
If you're a youngster, even one in your early teens, you'll probably love this place. It's certainly geared toward your age group. If you're a parent and like a place that's devoted to children, you'll also love this place. From the name, to the atmosphere, to the types of activities, it's geared for children. If you're looking for an average campground, this place could also work for you, but we found it to be nothing exceptional. The staff are pleasant. The roads in the front are paved and in reasonably good condition. Once past the reception building and the "red-carpet" sites, all roads are gravel. By the way, the red-carpet sites have a concrete patio and, for that little piece of heaven, you'll be charged an extra $15-28 depending of the time of year and the day of the week. Except for that patio, all the sites look the same. All sites are gravel and have a picnic table and fire ring. Our site was not particularly level so we asked for another that wasn't much better. Many of the sites have tall pines that do offer some shade. There is no cable, but you can pick up 5-6 fuzzy, local stations with your antenna. WiFi is planned, but not yet available. Unfortunately, there are not a lot of choices in this area. We've also been to the only other campground that's a major player in this area, and it's not any better! We've seen everything that we want to see in the area and probably won't be back to either one! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Excellent family campground. Lots of activities for the kids to do. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We plan on returning next summer. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Excellent campground with a lot of activities. Huge pool slide, paddleboats, putt-putt,
fishing and a great playground. Everyone was so nice extremely helpful. There is a beautiful view of the mountains as well. The snack bar makes yummy treats and fabulous ice cream. The Luray caverns is very close by. My family had a wonderful time here and plan on returning asap. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Outstanding park for families. Staff coordinates a host of daily acitivities, providing
ample opportunities for the kids beyond the normal facilities. Excellent proximity to the Luray Caverns and Skyline Drive. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We thoroughly enjoyed taking our grandchildren with us to this park. It has so much for
children and adults to do there. Two pools appeared to be very clean and nice. The water slide was not opened yet, but looked like a lot of fun. The "rangers" were most helpful and seemed like they really like their jobs. I would recommend this park to anyone who has children. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This park is excellent for families with kids, but also for everyone. The location is top-notch. Right between Skyline Drive and Luray Caverns. It is 5 miles to either one and the place is surrounded by mountains. Shenendoah River is 10 minutes away. The campground is family owned and everyone I talked to was laid back, pleasant and helpful. They have a pool, waterslide, and non-stop activities all day long. All hookups are new and the sites have mostly been re-leveled. We loved our stay and will be back. We camped here in a camper.

If you have kids this is the place that has excellent activities through out the day for them. It also has a small fishing pond, put put golf, 400' water slide, pedal carts and paddle boats. It has one of the best convenience stores we have been to. Only thing is it has a small swimming pool. Great place that we visit at least 2 times a year. We camped here in a camper.
