The campground and our campsite (#30) were very clean and comfortable. We were very happy with the ranger who checked in with us multiple times and offered wood for sale right out of his white pickup truck. The bathroom and water areas were clean and stocked. The lodge employees were great and the lakes were clean and beautiful. We can't wait for our next visit.

Nice bathrooms.
We were in #6. Wish there was better parking for our two vehicles. One had to park in the turn around.

The campground is very well kept and clean. The host does an excellent job in keeping track of who comes in and out of that place. Kimo is on top of everything!!

Campground is on a slight slope, so most of the sites are as well - otherwise, perfect spot! Lovely high-elevation campground on Trumbull Lake and easy hike to several other Virginia lakes. Gorgous!
