I liked how well the camp sites are spaced out, the sound of the creek, the proximity of nice trails and lake. The bathrooms were good. Zero cell service, but that's not such a bad thing.
My main complaint is that a utility sink is really needed in order to allow campers to wash dishes and not have to disperse food.
It was a little confusing that there is a gate house that is unmanned. There should be a sign on the window that tells you to go right to your campsite and a camp host will come check you in later.
It would be useful to have photos of each individual campsite like they do for the Virginia State Parks. Some of the sites are set up so it would be difficult or impossible to back a camper into the site and that would be more obvious with photos.

We always love the getaway and disconnect we achieve at Cave Mountain Lake. And the camp ground hosts are nice and helpful without being intrusive at all. Well kept and clean campground!

Excellent place for kids. Campsite 20 is the best in my opinion. Right across from the bathhouse. Very peaceful. Will return. Loved our stay
