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 pad for the camper was very narrow and with it being tiered I’ve had very little room to walk around the steps. The shore line was messy with old rugs. No way to fish or go swimming. Very disappointed. This was our first time there and probably our last.

The bath house that was nearest to our campsite is a bit timeworn, there is NO privacy in the men's shower area. If I camp there again I will go to Longwood or North Bend to shower. Our site had an area plowed out where an RV'er had backed a camper too long for the conditions of the site (steep entry) and gouged out the site with his rear bumper. This problem was not addressed by the camp staff which left me camping in a small lake when it rained. Overall the camp was reasonably clean. Rudds Creek was my last choice for camping and will stay my last choice for the near future.

Nice campground with sites right on the water. Clean restrooms. We appreciate being able to keep our boat in the water at our site. It’s what keeps us coming back every year.
