This was the first time my wife and I visited this place, we spent only one night but we knew that next time our visiting will be for longer time, my little boy enjoyed this experience and all of us got a good time like family, this place was amazing.

Campsites were well located and large enough to handle a large tent

Amazing campground! The bathrooms were clean and accessible. The bathrooms *in* the campground proper don't have showers, but there is a camp store with food, showers, supplies a short walk away (less than 10 minutes from our campsite). The whole campground is encircled by a neat hiking trail with some incredible views.

Rangers at this campground are really nice and helpful. Our site was on a bit of a slope, but it's a mountain in the wilderness, so not unexpected. No cell service here, which again, was to be expected. Sites are large, well-separated and have good shade / cover. Lovely campground at a perfect time of year.

It was VERY cold and we did not realize we were in a generator-free zone. The staff were helpful after we checked in and got set up. They did offer the option to move to an FF site the next day or two. We chose to stay since we were set up and we had plans for those days. The sites was very unloved which was difficult to see in the picture. Otherwise it was a nice campground. Bathrooms were clean.

Best campsite in Shenandoah and the people working are very helpful and friendly. Firewood is a scam but that's an issue with Shenandoah, not the campsite. Wood is VERY overpriced, and I think pine so burns FAST!

We were in E134. It was nice to be at the edge of the campground. The campsites are rather close to each other but it didn't bother us at all. The restrooms were a 2 minute walk. They were clean flush toilets and well kept. The best part was the AT nearby, just a 1 minute walk. Showers were at the camp store. They were also clean and well kept. I didn't mind paying $5 for a 10 minute shower. Our stay was very comfortable. Highly recommend.
