The group campsites were HUGE! There appeared to be a very nice bathhouse under construction, which I’m guessing should be finished or open by now. It was a bit of an inconvenience with just the 2 outhouses for all of the group camping. Other than that, I can’t wait to come back! Sherando Lake is so convenient to all of the nice hikes and breweries in Nelson County :)

We had a wonderful time at Sherando Lake, we were able to fish and hike. It was enjoyable for the whole family.

Very clean facilities & nicely kept campsites. My group camped the weekend after Labor Day and you could hardly tell! Our firepit did need to be dug out as there was a lot of ash in the bottom of it.

Clean, spacious, quiet, and volunteers were friendly. No camp host yet bc early in season. Bathroom was clean. Mostly left alone. Volunteers and ranger introduced themselves and waved when they passed by. Mostly alone on the group loop until the last night. Love the field in the middle of the loop. Sherando lake hike was lovely. Saw tadpoles in lake.

Sherando Lake is a beautiful campground and impeccably maintained. We rented all the group sites for a weekend and our host was very friendly and helpful. The only cleaner than the facilities was the park and trails. Everything about Sherando Lake is great and it is hands-down one of our favorite places to camp.

The group campsites are a must for anyone with small children. It’s secluded with a massive open field in the middle so all of the kids can play without worrying about cars and they are always in your line of sight.
The actual campsite is massive. Giving you and your fellow campers plenty of space to enjoy and kids to run around and explore. The bathrooms were clean and showers well taken care of. Honestly I won’t ever stay at another site when I go to sherando. There’s a power hookup at the showers but we didn’t need it at all for our gear personally.
