I had the best camping experience for the two days I was at Big Meadows Campground. The campsites are well marked and easy to find, there are clean, warm bathrooms placed in convenient spots throughout the campground.
There was an incident where a man helped himself to my firewood, but the Rangers took this seriously and he brought back my wood. The Rangers and others that worked there were friendly and helpful. I am a single female and I felt safe knowing there were good, competent people working at the campground.
Blackrock Summit was a delightful surprise, fairly close to my campsite. The views of Shenandoah Vally were so spectacular, I went up there twice.
100% a great experience camping there.

Wonderful site and clean campground. Did end up putting out a couple fires that had been left smoldering at the picnic area due to high winds and high fire danger going into the evening. Great place though.

Big Meadows Campground was clean, quiet at night, and family friendly. This site was great for a feeling of privacy, while still being close to the amenities of a larger campground. Be aware that the walk to this campsite is no joke. Next time, we will pack lighter. We would have preferred a tent pad farther away from the fire pit.

Beautiful park and facilities. Big Meadows has great amenities (water pump, utility sink for dishwashing, ice and firewood for sale, etc.), calm and beautiful campgrounds, and central location to some great trails. Definitely recommend a sunset and sunrise hike during your time in the park, but you can see the sun rise from some of the sites at Big Meadows as well. Check out the sunset up at the Blackrock - walkable from Big Meadows (about a mile maybe), beautiful! We also enjoyed hiking Stony Man and Hawksbill.
