Perfect campsite for our day trips on the Appalachian Trail. Weather was absolutely perfect, and the forecasted rain never showed up. I love being able to use my senior pass to access the national parks, especially skyline Drive and even more especially the Appalachian Trail. The campgrounds were Well-maintained and clean. No problems with any of the facilities. Very nice getting to know other campground guests. Thanks for a wonderful place to stay!

We love camping at Big Meadows campground. The sites are well maintained, bathrooms are kept clean. We enjoy seeing the wildlife that lives in the park. We were leaving the campsite and discovered that one of our vehicles had a dead battery - our fault. The campground host (I think his last name is Snow) came to our rescue. He was friendly and had us on our way home quickly. We plan to be back again.

This was my first time solo camping and everything went so smoothly. The campsite was so beautiful and had a lot of shade from the sun. My favorite part about camping is setting up my hammock, so relaxing. The park’s water tastes so delicious and pure!

We really liked this site, we tucked our tent away near the bushes and it felt private. Please note you are near a parking lot and dumpsters so there is some noise as people come and go.

All essential amenities desired for a family camping are available. Cleanliness maintain. Feed very safe surrounded by so many other campers and nature. Added advantage - Bath facility, Gas station, a shop with essential camping gears, canteen. Will return soon.

The recent improvements to the Big Meadow Campground are very nice! This was our first time using a bear box and loved having it on our site! Some of the sites could use better drainage, as there truly were ponds in the drive aisles after a torrential downpour all night.
