Nice spot to camp. Wildlife was abundant at the campground. Deer spent the night grazing outside our tent. My only complaints are that the showers are $5 and only use quarters ànd they don't tell you how much time you get for it. The only other complaint is that you can't get a good idea of the lay of the land from a website when you make reservations. I chose a site that was on less than desirable slope. That was really the only disappointment I experience. Hint: Sleep with your head uphill if you don't want your wife rolling on top of you as you sleep.

Lovely campground! The peace and quiet were amazing, and the view of the sky on clear nights was spectacular. I expect plenty more trips here from us.

Bad campsite with no storage locker, and butts up to another site which smoked us out all day and covered us in their ashes. The site is relatively flat in the parking space, but the whole site is slanted on a large hill.
Our neighbors had 6 sites and decided to party right next to us... really poor experience as this is not a group campsite.

Great location for families! Lots of open space with the one of the largest wooded sites… amply trees for hammocks, and multiple tents .. we would use the site again!!! And again
Only downside , curious traffic, driveway we vehicle can block most of that… love big meadows

The fall colors were stunning. There were deer who visited the campground every day. Sign up for Rapidan Camp before you arrive.

Great national park campground though the sites are closely spaced. As is typical in National Parks, there are no hookups for water or electric.

Shower maintained by private company, so park staff cant help when you have an issue. Showers didnt have a cost labeled so you randomly have to keep feeding quarters until it starts. Ended up to be $5…which is crazy expensive.

Sehr schöner Platz, kann ich nur empfehlen. Wanderung war zum Wasserfall war schön, leider hat das Wetter nicht ganz gepasst, aber dafür gibt es entsprechende Kleidung.
