This is God's country and if you can't help protect nature then you don't deserve places like this.

Very nice quiet campground on the parkway bathrooms were very clean. Will definitely go back. We stayed in an RV site T4. Nice spacious sites not close together.

Nice quiet campground right on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The campground host was very helpful. The bathrooms were clean. Our site wasn't very level but was otherwise nice. We were there mid-week so didn't get to enjoy the live music on the weekend. We would definitely come back.

Beautiful fall colors everywhere. Very quiet campground. I wish that loops B, C would have been open.

Clean and convenient

Nice wooded campground near the Blue Ridge Parkway but sites are close together and just off the road. Close to the cute town of Floyd where we enjoyed music Friday night at the Country Store. The CG also had music Saturday night which was nice. The ranger was friendly and very helpful.

We tent camped at A14 down the hill. It was a very large site and had an okay place to put up a tent. However, some of the sites inside the A circle had a lot fewer flat spots to tent camp and may be better for hammock camping, such as A15. The bathroom facilities were clean and tidy. The camp host was incredibly friendly and helpful answering all our questions about the area. We would definitely stay again when traveling on the parkway.

Very convenient location right off the Blue Ridge Parkway. The lady who checked me in was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Bathhouse was clean. Great experience.

Fine campground in a great location. The Rock Castle Gorge Loop is epic. Campground lacks any seclusion between sites. Bathroom could have been bigger for the number and in better condition.

The campsite was very well maintained.
@EugeneD5843276 · Camped on Sep 29, 2025 at Campsite #A7
Great place, our favorite. Put in showers.
@AngelaC1480345 · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #A12
Great secluded campground off the BRP. Sites are well-spaced, and the entire area was pretty empty although on a more normal year that may not be the case. Close to the town of Floyd with its shops, restaurants, and live music. Also close to two wineries which make for a nice afternoon excursion. Decent amount of hiking trails nearby as well.

Beautiful view and clean bath bathrooms
@VickKBFD218429 · Camped on Sep 22, 2025 at Campsite #A7
Beautiful area! Most of the sites are designed for tent camping, only a few sites were large enough for a trailer or other type RV.
@DianaS3470890 · Camped on Sep 20, 2025 at Campsite #T13
Peaceful, spacious sites, great music on Saturdays, educational ranger programs, excellent hiking in the area, clean bathrooms, and such a kind and helpful Park Ranger as well as the camp host & hostess.
@MarkD7704923 · Camped on Sep 12, 2025 at Campsite #A4
Fabulous! From the park attendants on site to the volunteers, the park employees were a delight. Clean restrooms, incredible hiking right from our campsite and the park program on Sat night made the experience extra special! Thank you!
@JOSHUAR047094E · Camped on Sep 9, 2025 at Campsite #A19
Not all the sites were good. The ground is steep and the picnic tables were leveled up with loose rocks. Basically, the tables were falling off the hill. The men's bathroom had no toilet paper.
@WalterJ6742383 · Camped on Sep 8, 2025 at Campsite #T22
Our favorite place to visit. Wayne is an excellent and friendly Ranger. Good food nearby and great scenery.
@RussellH235385 · Camped on Aug 25, 2025 at Campsite #T20
Our second stay at site T20. We had stayed at T20 for a week the previous month and enjoyed it so much that we reserved it a second time. We like its location in the T loop. The site's terrain made for easy leveling of our camper. The grassy area at the site has shade trees (great for hammocks) and the fire ring & picnic table are on level ground. We look forward to staying at T20 again in the future!
@MichaelC616917 · Camped on Jul 16, 2025 at Campsite #A12
The campground was surprisingly empty with only part of the campground being open. It is a beautiful cg directly adjacent to the BRP. The camp hosts were very helpful and knowledgeable. A true gem on the parkway.
@VanB36E1A61C00 · Camped on Jul 3, 2025 at Campsite #A14
We love this campground! Its a shame that only the A loop was open. The C loop has great tent sites, but our site (A-14) was nice. We loved the Ranger talk followed by local music on Saturday night.
@LindaM3264387 · Camped on Jul 2, 2025 at Campsite #T22
We love this campground and have been going there for many years. One recommendation to the park is to put up a sign at the second dumping station that it is "not" a dumping station. Both stations have fresh water, but a sign needs to let campers know that second dumping station will overflow if used!
@SylvainC7FC9FD · Camped on Jun 30, 2025 at Campsite #A7
This place looks like it has been forgotten in the last century. Nothing worked. 80% of the grounds closed.
@JamesT8733204 · Camped on Jun 28, 2025 at Campsite #A12
The campground was excellent. Be aware that they do have firewood, but only available when the booth is manned.
@RonaldH093523B · Camped on Jun 19, 2025 at Campsite #T18
We stayed at site T18. The site is relatively small, but it is on a lush green mountain top. We had to drive the wrong way on the road to orient ourselves correctly at the site, but that wasn't an issue. The site was asphalt and very uneven. The bathrooms were clean, but no showers. Everything was clean and well-maintained. The camp host was great.Chateau Morrisette and Villa Appalaccia wineries are nearby and make an excellent option for spending an afternoon. Floyd, VA is a quaint town about 20 minutes away with the Buffalo Mountain Brewery, an eclectic pub with some great beer.The senior discount ($10 per night) makes this a must return location.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
