Camp Holly

8 RV Sites

Camp Holly in Diana, West Virginia, offers eight full-hookup RV sites across a 22-acre mountain property in Webster County, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 36 feet. Cabins, glamping structures, and tent camping join a pond, playground, and general store in the state's most rugged interior. Eight back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 36 feet, with site WiFi. Note the 36-foot cap before booking a larger rig. Cabins, glamping structures, and tent camping round out the accommodations. A general store, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Two useful tips from the operators: buy fishing passes when you book your campsite for a discounted rate, and add a jumbo firewood square at booking and they will deliver it to your site. Pets are welcome. A pond anchors the on-site recreation with fishing, swimming, paddle boats, boating, canoeing, and kayaking from the water. A community fire pit, playground, hiking, and biking fill the rest, with planned activities through the season. Diana sits on WV-20 in the heartland of the Mountain State's most remote interior. The Cranberry Wilderness, the Gauley River National Recreation Area, and the Williams River's wild brook trout stream give this the most complete wilderness and outdoor adventure access of any campground in central West Virginia's Chestnut Ridge and Back Allegheny country. Summer water recreation and October foliage drive demand. With eight RV sites, reserve well ahead.

Wilderness Adventure at Eagle Landing

11 RV Sites

Wilderness Adventure at Eagle Landing in New Castle, Virginia, offers 11 dry-camping RV sites and cabin accommodations on an adventure property in Craig County, with a high ropes course, disc golf, kayak and bike rentals, and a hot tub. Sites take rigs to 45 feet with fire pits and picnic tables. One thing to know upfront: the campground spots are dry camping with no hookups. Eleven pull-through RV sites operate without hookups, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Portable toilets serve the sites, and a bathhouse provides flushing toilets and hot showers. Cabins offer enclosed lodging for guests who would rather not camp. A general store covers basics and firewood is available. From May through November, the Outpost opens Friday evenings through Sunday morning for food and drinks, including beer and wine. Adventure programming is what sets this property apart. A high ropes and adventure course provides aerial challenge elements almost never found at a campground, and a disc golf course, bike rentals, and kayak rentals fill the rest of the day. Trails, a pond, and a creek run the property for swimming, fishing, canoeing, and mountain biking. Volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, and a pavilion round out the on-site recreation, with planned activities through the season and strong birding in the surrounding forest. Pets are welcome. New Castle sits in Craig County, Virginia's least-populated county, in the ridge-and-valley country of the Jefferson National Forest. Craig Creek's cold, clear water runs nearby, and the surrounding Allegheny highlands carry extensive trail access. The property serves both family recreation guests and corporate and group retreats. The May-to-November window is when food service runs and the adventure programming is at full strength — plan dry camping supplies accordingly, and book group dates well ahead.

Lake Ridge RV Resort

84 RV Sites, 20 Cabins, 7 Tent Sites

Lake Ridge RV Resort in Hillsville, Virginia, offers 84 RV sites, 20 cabins, and seven tent sites on a lake in Carroll County's Blue Ridge Mountains, with 30 and 50-amp full-hookup service and rigs accepted to 65 feet. An outdoor pool with water slides, a clubhouse, and a full activity calendar make this a family resort rather than an overnight stop. Sites run from back-in and deluxe back-in with 30-amp water and electric to VIP back-in and pull-through options and super pull-throughs with 50-amp, all sized for rigs to 65 feet. Twenty cabins serve guests traveling without a rig, and seven tent sites cover simpler camping. A general store, snack bar, laundry, propane fills and exchange, and a dump station handle the practical side, and WiFi reaches the property. On-site recreation is extensive. An outdoor pool with water slides anchors the summer, with a lake on the property for fishing, boating, paddle boats, and paddle boarding. Sports courts, basketball, horseshoes, shuffleboard, and gaga ball spread across the grounds, with an arcade and clubhouse indoors and a playground, pavilion, dog park, and walking trails besides. Golf cart rentals make the resort easy to cross, and planned activities run through the season. Pets are welcome. Hillsville sits near the Blue Ridge Parkway close to the Virginia–North Carolina line. Galax and its Old Fiddlers' Convention, the New River Trail State Park, and Grayson Highlands State Park are all close. Roanoke and Winston-Salem are each about 75 minutes; Virginia Tech is 52 miles. The resort runs the Blue Ridge season, with summer families and October foliage driving peak demand. Reserve ahead for both, and check pool and slide operating dates when booking shoulder-season stays.

Phoenix Mountain Campground

9 RV Sites

Phoenix Mountain Campground in Lansing, North Carolina, offers nine full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric service on 30 and 50-amp, taking rigs up to 60 feet, steps from the New River in Ashe County. Site WiFi reaches the campground. At nine sites, this is a deliberately small operation in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina's northwestern corner. Nine full-hookup sites offer 30 and 50-amp service with water and sewer, accommodating rigs to 60 feet in back-in configurations. WiFi reaches the sites. The small site count is the point: guests get river frontage and quiet rather than a programmed resort, and the campground fills accordingly. The New River is the property's defining feature. Sites sit adjacent to its clear, rocky-bottom flow, putting guests within walking distance for morning fishing, afternoon paddling, and evening time by the water. Fishing, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boats, and boating all run from the property, and picnicking areas serve daytime use. The surrounding hills and river corridor make for exceptional birding — warblers and vireos in the canopy, waterthrushes along the stream edges, raptors on the ridgeline thermals. Pets are welcome. The New River is a National Wild and Scenic River and among the oldest rivers on Earth, an ancient drainage that predates the Appalachians and still runs north and west against them. Lansing's revitalized downtown is walkable and close by, with Pie on the Mountain, Old Orchard Creek General Store, and Molley Chomper Cidery among the local draws. The campground runs through the Ashe County mountain season, with summer river recreation and October foliage driving demand. With only nine sites, weekends book out well in advance — reserve early for any summer or fall stay.

Rocky Fork Ranch

1 RV Site

Rocky Fork Ranch in Kimbolton, Ohio, provides a distinctive ranch-themed family resort camping experience in Guernsey County's rolling hill country, combining horseback riding, disc golf, mini-golf, hiking trails, and a pool with the rural Ohio character of the unglaciated southeastern landscape where the Ohio hill country's forested ridges and creek hollows preserve the Appalachian upland character that the flat Central Ohio agricultural plain entirely lacks. The ranch's programming integrates the western ranch experience—horseback trail rides through the surrounding woodland—with the family campground amenities that transform Rocky Fork into a full-featured resort destination in a corner of Ohio rarely on the family vacation radar despite its distinctive landscape and outdoor recreation character. The ranch's facility covers an unusually broad recreation spectrum: full hookup sites, cabins, an outdoor pool, mini-golf, disc golf course, horseback riding with guided trail rides, hiking trails through the surrounding Guernsey County hill country, basketball, gaga ball, horseshoes, planned activities, live music and entertainment, a game room with billiards, dog park, pavilion, clubhouse, laundry, showers, propane fills, Wi-Fi, and the unique combination of western-style horseback recreation with resort campground amenities creates a dual-identity vacation environment that serves families whose ranch experience is a primary draw and families who want resort camping with a distinctive setting. The wedding venue extends the property's event programming beyond camping. Guernsey County sits in southeastern Ohio's unglaciated Allegheny Plateau where the hill-and-hollow topography, the Muskingum River tributaries, and the hardwood forest cover create a landscape more reminiscent of neighboring West Virginia's Appalachian character than the flat corn and soybean fields of Central Ohio. The region's history reflects the energy extraction economy that has defined southeastern Ohio since the early nineteenth century—salt wells, coal mining, and more recently the Utica shale natural gas development—alongside the agricultural heritage of a rural county whose courthouse city of Cambridge preserves the county seat architecture of a once-prosperous Ohio market town. Salt Fork State Park, approximately 8 miles north of Kimbolton via OH-541, is Ohio's largest state park at 20,000 acres surrounding the 2,952-acre Salt Fork Lake in a reservoir and upland forest landscape that provides the most comprehensive outdoor recreation infrastructure in eastern Ohio—hiking, boating, fishing for saugeye and largemouth bass, a beach, mountain biking, and the state park lodge and cabins that make Salt Fork a destination park rather than a day-use facility. The Cambridge Glass Museum in Cambridge preserves the heritage of the Cambridge Glass Company's Depression-era pressed glass production that made Cambridge internationally recognized among glass collectors. Rocky Fork Ranch operates seasonally from spring through fall in Guernsey County's four-season Ohio climate, with the summer horseback riding season from June through August representing the peak guest activity period when the trail rides through the surrounding woodland provide the most lush and immersive equestrian experience. The spring wildflower season in April and May brings trillium and wild geranium to the Guernsey County hollows, and the fall foliage season in October transforms the surrounding unglaciated hill country into the color display that Ohio's Appalachian fringe consistently produces each year. The ranch's combination of horseback riding and resort amenities creates a family camping experience with a distinctive character not replicated at any other campground in the eastern Ohio corridor.

Firefly Hills

13 RV Sites

Firefly Hills in Beattyville, Kentucky, sits in Lee County's eastern Kentucky mountains within minutes of some of the most concentrated outdoor recreation terrain in the Appalachian South — Red River Gorge Geological Area, Daniel Boone National Forest, and Natural Bridge State Resort Park collectively provide hundreds of miles of hiking, world-class rock climbing, kayaking, and horseback riding accessible from a campground that specifically caters to the full-time RVers, adventure travelers, and outdoor enthusiasts who make the Red River Gorge corridor a long-term base rather than a quick passing visit. Fifteen spacious RV sites with full hookups on level concrete pads with picnic tables give guests the practical infrastructure for extended stays, and the campground's brand-new bathhouse with three full bathrooms — including an ADA-accessible unit — reflects the investment in quality daily facilities that sets Firefly Hills apart from older rural Kentucky campgrounds whose infrastructure reflects decades without renovation. An on-site laundry room with card-operated machines handles the needs of longer-stay guests, and a garbage and recycling station provides the waste management infrastructure that responsible extended-stay camping requires. The campground's welcoming atmosphere and explicit inclusion focus create a community environment suited to solo travelers, couples, and families arriving from the widest range of backgrounds and camping styles. RV rentals available through the campground extend its accessibility to guests who want the Red River Gorge experience without owning their own equipment. The campground's orchard provides a pleasant walking and exploration environment between outdoor excursions, the stocked pond offers camp-side fishing in a natural setting, and community campfires serve the social gathering function that the concentrated outdoor recreation community of the Red River Gorge corridor naturally cultivates — guests in this region tend to share climbing routes, trail recommendations, and paddling conditions in the informal evening exchanges that campfire settings specifically enable. Red River Gorge Geological Area in the Daniel Boone National Forest is internationally recognized as one of the finest sandstone arch landscapes in the eastern United States — over 100 natural arches across a deeply dissected plateau of Corbin sandstone, including Haystack Rock, Double Arch, and the accessible Sky Bridge trail that delivers a natural arch crossing experience to casual hikers. The Red River's gorge provides Class I-III paddling through the geological area, and the climbing at the Military Wall, Muir Valley, and dozens of additional crags attracts sport climbers from across the Appalachian region and the Midwest for the concentration of quality routes per canyon mile. Natural Bridge State Resort Park provides the flagship arch viewshed accessible by trail or skylift. Firefly Hills operates year-round in eastern Kentucky's mountain climate, with spring and fall representing the most popular outdoor recreation seasons — spring wildflowers in the gorge from April through May and fall foliage in October through early November create two peak windows of extraordinary natural beauty in the Lee County mountain terrain. Rock climbing season extends from March through November, and the paddling season on the Red River peaks with spring rains and fall precipitation. Reserve sites ahead for the October foliage season, when Red River Gorge area campgrounds fill from the Louisville, Lexington, and Cincinnati markets that specifically target the Appalachian fall color window.

Momma Tried RV & Campground

38 RV Sites, 2 Tent Sites

In the forested mountains of Pocahontas County in eastern West Virginia, Momma Tried RV & Campground sits among the hardwood hollows and mountain streams of one of the wildest and most unspoiled regions in the eastern United States. Located near the small community of Cabins—itself a name that captures the essential character of the area—the campground operates year-round and provides full hookup sites, walking trails, a dog park, sports courts, and direct access to the rivers and mountains that define the Monongahela National Forest country. For outdoors-focused campers who want genuine Appalachian terrain, this is the right address. Full hookup sites with WiFi deliver modern connectivity in a mountain setting that might otherwise suggest a more spartan experience. Walking trails loop from the campground into the surrounding forested terrain, and the campground's river and stream access opens up swimming holes, fishing spots, and quiet stretches of water that can occupy entire afternoons with nothing more than wading boots and a light rod. A dog park gives canine travelers their own space, basketball and sports courts provide on-site active recreation, and a playground serves families with younger campers. The campground is open year-round, accessible for fall foliage season, winter snowshoeing, and the full spring wildflower bloom that turns the surrounding Allegheny hollows into something extraordinary. The mountains surrounding Cabins are part of the Allegheny Highlands—ancient, rounded ridges covered in mixed hardwood and spruce forest that represent some of the most significant wild country remaining in the eastern United States. Monongahela National Forest, which envelops much of Pocahontas County, provides hundreds of thousands of acres of hiking, mountain biking, trout fishing, and wildlife habitat. The Greenbrier River, one of the cleanest rivers in the Appalachians, flows through the region and offers kayaking, canoeing, and fly fishing in water that is famously clear and cold in every season. The Greenbrier River Trail—a converted rail trail running more than 70 miles through the Greenbrier Valley—is one of the premier rail-to-trail experiences in the eastern United States, with sections accessible from the campground area. Seneca Rocks, the dramatic quartzite formation rising 900 feet above the Seneca Creek valley, is one of the iconic technical climbing destinations in the Appalachian region. Spruce Knob, the highest point in West Virginia, offers day-trip access to long views across the Allegheny ridges. Waterfalls, swimming holes, and the dense quiet of old mountain forest surround the campground in every direction. Momma Tried RV & Campground is open year-round and serves outdoors-focused guests who want a functional base camp in mountain country rather than a resort. The campground suits serious hikers, kayakers, mountain bikers, and anglers especially well, and the absence of heavy resort programming is part of the appeal for guests who come to be in the mountain environment rather than watching it from poolside. Whether you're chasing trout on the Greenbrier, riding the rail trail, climbing at Seneca Rocks, or simply immersing yourself in the remarkable quiet of the West Virginia highlands, Momma Tried delivers the right setting. Book a site and get outside.

The wide category is worth requesting for larger rigs or guests who want elbow room. Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, and firewood handle the practical side, with a storm shelter on site — a genuine safety feature in the Tennessee Valley. Site rates vary by category and date. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a lake, pond, fishing pier, boat docks, and boat rentals giving direct water access for fishing, boating, canoeing, and kayaking. A recreation center, playground, pavilion, dog park, horseshoes, corn hole, biking, and on-site dining fill the rest, with planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. The elevated viewshed over Boone Lake against the Blue Ridge is the resort's signature. Bluff City sits on US-11E between Johnson City and Kingsport, with the lake's bass and walleye fishery and the South Holston River tailwater close by. Year-round operation makes this viable across seasons. Summer and October foliage are the peaks — reserve ahead.

Roan Creek Campground by Doe Mountain

Roan Creek Campground by Doe Mountain in Butler, Tennessee, offers spacious full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric, alongside tent camping and rustic cabins on Roan Creek in northeast Tennessee. Fire pits, picnic tables, and site WiFi serve guests using the property as a base for the region's outdoor recreation. Full-hookup back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric with fire pits and picnic tables. Rustic cabins provide enclosed lodging, and tent sites cover simpler camping.

Walking trails run the property, with fishing, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, hiking, picnicking, and birding all available from camp. The mountain terrain surrounds the campground on every side, and the water is the reason most guests book. Doe Mountain Recreation Area is the headline draw — 8,700 acres of trails and adventure terrain, and one of the more substantial riding and hiking areas in the region. Beyond it, northeast Tennessee's high country opens up in every direction, with the Appalachian corridor's lakes, rivers, and ridgelines all within reach. The campground works equally well for a quiet getaway and an active outdoor trip, which is much of its appeal — guests can ride Doe Mountain all day or spend it beside the creek without leaving the property.

Montebello Camping & Fishing Resort

38 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 17 Tent Sites, 2 Cottages

High in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Nelson County, Virginia—less than three miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway where the Virginia highlands' apple orchards, vineyards, and the watershed of the Tye and Piney rivers create the elevated rural landscape that Nelson County's outdoor and agricultural community has built its identity around—Montebello Camping and Fishing Resort offers authentic log cabin and cottage rentals available year-round, full-service RV and tent camping from April through October, a 5-acre private lake with complimentary kayaks and paddleboats, a fee-based trout pond requiring no fishing license, and the historic country store that has occupied its Blue Ridge Mountain post since 1894, providing a camping and fishing experience in the Virginia highlands whose combination of mountain setting, free-use lake, and license-free trout pond makes it the most complete fishing resort on the Nelson County side of the Blue Ridge. The trout pond needs no license. The country store has been open since 1894. Log cabins and cottages available year-round provide the enclosed accommodation for the Blue Ridge winter visitor whose mountain hiking and wine country touring calendar runs twelve months, while the full-service RV and tent sites with electric hookups, restrooms, showers, dump station, and laundry provide the spring-through-fall camping infrastructure from April through October. The 5-acre private lake's complimentary kayaks and paddleboats eliminate the boat rental transaction and create the self-directed water recreation that the lake's fishing, the leisurely paddle around the mountain-reflected perimeter, and the wildlife watching from the water deliver without additional daily charges. The fee-based trout pond—no fishing license required—provides the accessible, managed angling experience that non-licensed guests and the family with young anglers learning the sport use specifically to avoid the license paperwork. Montebello sits in Nelson County at the Blue Ridge's eastern escarpment, in the watershed between the mountains and the Shenandoah Valley's Rockfish River corridor where the Appalachian Trail, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and the Skyline Drive converge in the concentration of Virginia's most significant long-distance trails and scenic routes. Crabtree Falls, 5 miles north on VA-56, cascades 1,000 feet in a series of five distinct drops that makes it the highest waterfall east of the Mississippi in the Virginia Blue Ridge—the 1.7-mile trail to the falls' upper viewpoint through the hemlock and hardwood forest is one of the most rewarding short hikes in the Virginia highlands. Wintergreen Resort, 15 miles north via VA-56 and Wintergreen Drive, operates Virginia's most complete four-season mountain resort with skiing and snowboarding from December through March and the Devils Knob Golf Course, spa, hiking, and mountain biking from spring through fall on the Blue Ridge plateau at 3,500 to 4,000 feet elevation. The Nelson County wine trail—the concentration of boutique wineries along US-151 south of the resort in the Rockfish Valley—provides the wine tasting alternative that the valley's elevation and the well-drained clay soils have made increasingly productive for Virginia viticulture. Montebello Camping and Fishing Resort's cabin and cottage accommodations operate year-round in Nelson County's Blue Ridge climate, with the apple harvest season from September through October, the fall foliage peak in late October, and the spring wildflower season from April through May providing the three most visually distinctive periods in the mountain calendar. The RV and tent camping season from April through October corresponds with the Blue Ridge Parkway's most comfortable driving and cycling conditions. Reserve your cabin, cottage, or RV site at Montebello and let the fee-based trout pond, the 5-acre lake's complimentary kayaks, the Blue Ridge Parkway's proximity, and the 1894 country store make the Virginia highlands the mountain escape the Nelson County Blue Ridge has always provided.

Cove Ridge Marina & Resort

5 RV Sites, 1 Cabin, 2 Houses

Cove Ridge Marina and Resort occupies a private cove on Watauga Lake in Butler, Tennessee, delivering one of the most scenic marina and camping combinations in the southern Appalachians. Watauga Lake is Tennessee's highest-elevation lake—sitting at roughly 1,959 feet and flanked by the ridges of Cherokee National Forest—and the cove ridge marina position on its shoreline provides mountain views, deep clear water, and a natural setting that defines the experience from the moment you arrive. The marina anchors the resort's water-activity offerings with covered and open boat slips, dry storage, fuel service, boat rentals, kayak and stand-up paddleboard rentals, and a Dock House Restaurant serving meals at the water's edge. RV sites overlook the lake and surrounding mountain ridges, offering the kind of camping vistas that justify driving considerably out of the way. For guests who prefer enclosed accommodations, the resort offers a historic two-bedroom farmhouse, a three-bedroom lakehouse sleeping up to eight, a cozy tiny cabin with loft beds, and three Safari Tents that combine outdoor character with comfortable furnishings. Watauga Lake's geography sets it apart from Tennessee's other reservoirs. Created by the TVA's Watauga Dam in 1948, the lake fills a high mountain valley that produces consistently clear, cool water and the long ridgeline views that define the Southern Appalachian experience. The Cherokee National Forest extends in every direction from the resort, providing immediate access to backcountry terrain that ranges from gentle ridge-top walks to serious wilderness routes approaching Roan Mountain's famous rhododendron balds above 6,000 feet. The Appalachian Trail crosses Watauga Lake via a pedestrian bridge at Watauga Dam, and the trail corridor through this section of Northeast Tennessee offers day hiking and multi-day backpacking access that few lakeside resorts can match. The historic community of Shady Valley nearby is one of the best cranberry bog habitats in the southeastern United States. The Tri-Cities metropolitan area—Johnson City, Kingsport, and Bristol—is 30 to 45 minutes away, providing full commercial services, Bristol Motor Speedway, the Birthplace of Country Music Museum in Bristol, and the cultural offerings of a region that sits at the geographic heart of Appalachian heritage. Cove Ridge Marina and Resort operates seasonally through the warmer months, with boat slip demand and cabin reservations picking up early for summer weekends on one of Tennessee's most beautiful lakes. Watauga Lake's high elevation keeps temperatures noticeably cooler than the lowland reservoirs, making summer camping here genuinely comfortable without air conditioning in most years. Visitors who want to pair on-the-water recreation with easy Appalachian Trail access and dramatic mountain scenery will find that Cove Ridge delivers a natural setting that rivals anything in the Tennessee highlands.

Fish Springs at Little Pond Mountain Campground

19 RV Sites

Fish Springs at Little Pond Mountain Campground in Hampton, Tennessee, offers 19 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, sized for rigs to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, at the base of Roan Mountain in the upper Doe River valley. An outdoor pool and ball field sit on a property built as a base for southern Appalachian mountain recreation. Nineteen back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables and site WiFi. A dump station, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. One vehicle is allowed per site, with an extra vehicle fee of $1 per night on arrival — among the more modest such charges in this batch. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a ball field and basketball on the grounds. Boating, swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, snorkeling, hiking, and biking all run from the area, with off-roading and a golf course nearby. The cold, clear mountain streams around Roan Mountain hold some of the finest wild trout water in the East, which is why many guests book. Pets are welcome. Hampton sits in Carter County where the Cherokee National Forest's spruce-fir summits, the Appalachian Trail's high-elevation traverse, and Watauga Lake's shoreline converge — one of the most recreation-rich environments in the southern Appalachians. The campground serves the mountain season. The June rhododendron bloom on Roan Mountain and October foliage are the two peak windows, with summer lake and trout traffic between them. With 19 sites, reserve well ahead for any of the three.
