About Rudds Creek Rec. Area

Rudds Creek Park is located on John H. Kerr Reservoir, a 50,000-acre lake that extends 39 miles up the wooded, cove-studded shoreline of the Roanoke River in Virginia and North Carolina. Rudd's Creek Campground is open April 1 - October 31. The Day Use Park, located across Hwy 58, is open year-around. Kerr Reservoir, also known as Buggs Island Lake, was created with the construction of the John H. Kerr Dam in 1952. Its 800 miles of wooded shoreline stretch across six counties in two states and offer countless recreation opportunities for visitors.

The staff at the park were absolutely excellent and very nice. They even called to say that our campsite was ready early. The bath houses and restrooms were very clean, as well as, the parks. I will be returning!

There is a great family playground/ swimming area located across the main highway from the campground. Great for the kids. 1 hour free entry with camping pass.

Our first visit to this park. We loved the lake access from many sites. We also liked the Park Ranger being very proactive. Not a loose dog anywhere and they made several interactions with other campers in our view. The lake was very high during our visit but the lone beach appeared to be very small and without water or electric.

The gate attendants were both awesome as is normal at COE sites, one of them called hours before check in to tell us our site was clear and we could roll in early.
Overall a perfect experience.
