One of my favorite Virginia State campgrounds.
Beautiful lake with canoeing, swimming and fishing.
I wish they would increase the size/number of campsites because there are only a few sites that will handle large rigs.
Would love to know your recommendations for the best sites for big rigs!
can someone tell me how much firewood is here?
Hi Jessica,
Maybe someone here knows. Usually the Camp Host sells firewood at campgrounds. As a guess – I’d say it’s around $5 per bundle.
