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.

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.

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.

Misty Mountain Camp Resort

92 RV Sites, 16 Cabins, 15 Tent Sites

Misty Mountain Camp Resort in Greenwood, Virginia, is a full-hookup camp resort with RV sites, tent sites and cabin rentals, an outdoor pool, a fitness center and a clubhouse, set half a mile off Interstate 64 at the eastern foot of the Blue Ridge. The property is big-rig friendly and takes coaches up to 90 feet, which makes it one of the more accommodating options in the Rockfish Gap corridor between Charlottesville and Shenandoah National Park. Full-hookup RV sites handle rigs to 90 feet, with a dump station on site for guests who need it. Tent sites suit campers who want the mountain setting without hauling a rig, and cabin rentals provide enclosed lodging for guests traveling without either. A general store covers basics, propane is available by both fill and exchange, and firewood is sold on site. Bathrooms, showers and laundry are available throughout the season, and WiFi reaches the sites. On-site recreation is unusually deep for a campground this size. An outdoor pool anchors the summer season, with a fitness center and clubhouse open year-round and a recreation center for indoor gathering. Sports courts host basketball and volleyball, and horseshoes and corn hole fill the space between. A playground serves younger guests, a fenced dog park serves the four-legged ones, and walking trails run the property past a pond and the creek that crosses the grounds. A covered pavilion hosts planned activities, live music and visiting food trucks through the summer, and the resort also operates as a wedding venue. Gem mining and gold panning round out the on-site programming. Pets are welcome. Shenandoah National Park's southern entrance at Rockfish Gap is 20 miles north, where Skyline Drive begins its 105-mile run along the Blue Ridge crest and the Blue Ridge Parkway heads south toward Cherokee. Charlottesville lies 15 miles east on I-64, putting Monticello, the University of Virginia and the Downtown Mall within a half-hour drive, and the Greenwood-area wineries sit closer still. Misty Mountain operates through Albemarle County's four-season climate. Spring wildflowers from April into May and fall foliage from mid-October into early November are the two peak windows, and both draw heavily from the Richmond, Northern Virginia and Washington markets. Book well ahead for fall color weekends and for the summer live-music calendar.

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.

Summer families and October foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead for fall color weekends.

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.

Smith Mountain Campground

20 RV Sites, 2 Tent Sites

On Liberty Road in Penhook, Virginia—in the rolling Blue Ridge foothills of Franklin County less than five miles from the nearest public boat launch on Smith Mountain Lake—Smith Mountain Campground operates as a family-owned RV facility with full hookup sites, a stocked fishing pond, private hiking trail, and the quiet country character that the lake region's residential neighborhoods have preserved across the decades since Appalachian Power dammed the Roanoke River to create what has become Virginia's second-largest lake and the surrounding community's defining natural asset. The campground's private pond, four-unit bathhouse with individual tiled rooms, and boat parking give guests who came to fish and be near the water the specific combination of amenities that lake-country camping specifically demands. Full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections, picnic tables, and fire rings serve both back-in and pull-through configurations across the property's site inventory, and complimentary high-speed WiFi keeps connected guests online through the site footprint. A four-unit private bathhouse with individually tiled rooms—each containing a shower, sink, toilet, and electrical outlet—provides a level of bathroom privacy that the typical campground shower-house arrangement doesn't supply. A dedicated laundry facility handles the practical needs of extended stays. Dedicated boat parking accommodates the trailered watercraft that lake-bound guests consistently arrive with, and a pavilion available for private reservation serves the group gathering needs of family reunions and organized camping events. A playground and outdoor recreation area serve families with younger campers and children in tow. The private hiking trail and stocked fishing pond are the property's most distinctive natural amenities—giving guests who want to fish without launching a boat an on-property option that the lake's five-mile distance doesn't otherwise provide. Smith Mountain Lake's character—a 20,600-acre reservoir on the Roanoke and Blackwater Rivers at the base of the Blue Ridge, with 500 miles of wooded shoreline and an elevation of 795 feet—provides the fishing and boating programming that organizes the Franklin County camping calendar from spring through fall. Striped bass, largemouth bass, crappie, and bluegill populate the lake in numbers and quality that have established Smith Mountain Lake among Virginia's premier fishing destinations, and the shoreline's development as a residential and resort community has produced a marina and restaurant infrastructure that gives boating guests on-water dining access that few Virginia lakes match. Smith Mountain Lake State Park, on the Halesford Arm of the lake's western reach, provides the hiking, swimming beach, boat rental, and educational programming that bring non-boating visitors specifically to the state park when a day on the water doesn't require owning a vessel. The park's mountain bike trails and the lake's kayaking and paddleboarding resources extend the recreational programming beyond powerboating into the quieter water-access categories. Roanoke—Virginia's largest city in the western part of the state, with the Taubman Museum of Art, the Virginia Museum of Transportation, and the Blue Ridge Parkway access via the Roanoke Valley—is accessible for the urban cultural programming that a lakeside camping base supplements naturally. Smith Mountain Campground is open seasonally through the Virginia camping calendar, with the prime season running from April through October when Smith Mountain Lake's fishing, boating, and outdoor recreation are at their most active. Fall foliage on the Blue Ridge foothills surrounding the lake creates one of the most visually rewarding shoulder-season camping opportunities in western Virginia. Reserve your site with boat parking early for the spring bass season and let the Franklin County lake country earn the reputation that Virginia's recreational community has assigned to it for decades.

An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a jumping pillow, game room, volleyball, gem mining, golf cart rentals, a lake, playground, pavilion, and dog park filling the grounds.
