Very nice campground and centrally located. We saw a lot of wildlife—deer and red fox.

Our campsite was level for setting up a tent, in a good location and a short distance from the restroom. The dishwashing station was in a different restroom building, which was fairly close, but less convenient to access. Facilities were well-maintained and cleaned regularly. The campground is near the visitors center, camp store, and lodge. Many ranger-led activities are available in the Big Meadows area. We especially enjoyed the Meadow Walk and the Rapidan Camp Tour.

We had a clean and level tent pad on a site with paved parking. Plenty of space and close to flush toilet bathrooms. Easy access to our site, close to midway point of Skyline Drive. $5.00 showers were disgustingly dirty. I considered cutting the black, moldy shower curtain down and delivering it to a biohazard facility to save humans. Everything was great except the showers.

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.

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

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.
