I was so pleased with this campground. 3 people in my party used the bathhouse/showers and raved that they were the cleanest they have ever seen. We stayed in a full hookup RV site and the site was very level. Used only 1 leveler on one side of our travel trailer. We had a 38 foot travel trailer, tow vehicle, 2 SXS, trailer and another tow vehicle with plenty of space. Behind our site was a flowing creek/river, and we were able to open the back window in our bunkhouse to have a nice view. The owners are exceptional and so pleasant. They keep everything maintained and are beyond helpful. Approachable, friendly and always willing to help! I would absolutely recommend this place and will return to this same campground. Access to the trails was very convenient and just over 1/4 mile from the grounds. Both Rockhouse and Buffalo Mountain can be accessed via Devil Anse trail. Very convenient!

Awesome place to camp. Everyone very friendly. Treat you like family. Very relaxing place to be.read more

All my life, my family has been coming here for a special treat. So, when I returned to SW Virginia…read moreafter being away for a few decades, I certainly had to take my family for a visit. The mountains are just as beautiful as they have always been. Maybe a little worn down over the ages (ok, sometimes I just feel old). The overlooks are pretty fantastic. We went to the tunnel overlook. We went the "long" way. You can go to the second parking lot from the Visitor center for a much quicker hike, but it wasn't an epic journey through tunnels of mountain laurel and rhododendrons. Your choice for the jungle experience or the straight run. Once there, the views of the tower and tunnel were spectacular. We also stopped at the Lodge Restaurant for lunch. It was just an awesome, calming time. I really wish we had spent days instead of an afternoon. Maybe when I retire, we will stay longer in the fall. I had the club sandwich which was really good. The fries in it were just the way I like them: crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. Waitress was good & prompt which checks all the boxes for me. DEFINITELY recommend this for a visit. Whatever your outdoor criteria is, this place will meet it.

There's a lake and nearby rivers if you are a boater or a paddler!

We loved riding the chair lift down to the tunnel and, wow, what an impressive sight! The river was beautiful and our kids loved wading in just a bit to cool off before heading back up the lift. The ranger service was wonderful with lots of tips and activities for the kids to do on small, manageable hikes. The kids also enjoyed playing on the train engine displayed near the parking lot. Definitely a great spot to visit even just to ride the lift down to the tunnel and back up!

Clearly, this place is marketed to resemble Natural Bridge, Virginia's better known (and frankly,…read moremore impressive) attraction. The park here is set up with a number of camping facilities and trails that have a separate entrance, while the attraction itself is accessible by parking at a visitor center and either walking down a fairly steep trail or taking a (seasonal) chairlift. On the dreary day I visited, there was barely a soul in sight, but the park seemed to be setting up for a winter lights festival. The tunnel itself is used for a railroad line, and a viewing platform allows you to go to the edge of the tunnel but you can't actually go through it, which is disappointing. The trail downstream through the gorge is pleasant and worth a brief jaunt but it terminates quickly. Those seeking more of a hike will find the ridge trail that heads upwards worthwhile, and the views of the tunnel from above are probably at least as good as what you'd get walking up close to it. The local Lover's Leap is majestic (and horrifying, if you think about it). I did not think it one of the more impressive state parks in either Virginia or in the the confluence of states in this region, but there are some nice things to see.

Last year we planned out four wheeling trip early but due to some change plans at my husbands work…read morewe had to cancel them. We got this last-minute trip planned but unfortunately there was no space open at our regular cabins so we looked online and found Southern gap adventures. Boy are we so happy that we did. The people are friendly and the cabins are very nice- as nice or nicer as the other place. The best part of all was the spearhead trail system you ride from the outdoor adventure area right onto the trails how many miles of trails- More than 150 miles worth of awesome well-kept trails, and more are being built This year. The new trails are in much better shape than the other place and there are more challenging trails will still being blue and the whole group able to ride and have a lot of fun. Riding on the spearhead trail system you can go into the town of hazy and visit the breaks interstate park or you can ride into the town of Grandy where there is a convenient Walmart, ABC store, gas, and a few good places to eat. purchased yearly trail passes for $10 more than the other place and that is not due to Southern gap adventures but because Buchanon county only gives residency discounts to those who live in the county. I thought the price was high but then I remembered that our last trip to Busch Gardens was $60 a person and I had four days of awesome fun riding these trails. As far as Sellitti's there are camping spaces very nice large bathhouse and cabins which have their own bathrooms, and a small kitchenette. The beds were comfortable and we stayed in the winter in the heat work very well. Looking around the property we can see that there's an area for mud pits and the lodge has a very large great room which could be used for a good party if your riding club decided to come up here for their yearly meet up. If you have four wheeling and you love riding all day on well-maintained trails and staying in the camping area or a cabin hosted by really friendly people at really reasonable prices then I really strongly suggest that you give Southern gap adventures a try. It's only 20 miles away from the other place.

What a stunning national park! We made the 5 hour drive from Louisville, and weren't sure exactly…read morewhat to expect. We were blown away with how beautiful and full all the trees were. While we decided to just stick with hiking, the national park offers rafting, fishing, hunting, and bridge walking. The canyon rim visitor center was packed with useful information and history, the staff were friendly and helped us map out our day. This national park has free entry which was a nice bonus! If you're camping go early because you can't reserve campsites and they fill up fast. We couldn't find a spot for the first night and ended up having to stay at a paid campground outside the park. The second night we found a spot at Meadow Creek campground, it's an open field surrounded by trees. Don't miss the waterfall or the old railroad town of Thurmond! Those were the highlights of our trip.

The bridge walk was a unique, bucket list experience and the 8 mile one way drive was very picturesque. I wish we had time to do the whitewater rafting. It's class 4, so if you're inexperienced you definitely need an outfitter and a guide. Next time! Make sure you visit the Canyon Rim visitor center too which has an epic view of the bridge and canyon in back!
