Claytor Lake

Beautiful campground, well thought out, and very well maintained. My dad is disabled and we were given a very nice spot with easy access to bath house, garbage, and water. Didn't get to see much as we were just stopping on our way through but I think the lake is pretty nice as well

This park was beautiful! Our RV site, D26, was level & spacious with water & electricity. The area is treed & has just enough sun & sky to enjoy the warmth of the day or the stars at night. The park is clean & access to the lake is close. The lake itself is gorgeous with a lovely, good-sized, sandy beach marked off for swimming. We only stayed one night & we wished we had stayed much longer, mostly for the tranquility & to be able to swim in the lake (which was probably about 70-75 degrees). I highly recommend this park!

Very enjoyable camping experience. I was in Camp section C with hosts Renee and Kenny and their little dog Cody (apologies if I misremembered the names). They were very friendly and accommodating & most helpful. It was nice having showers as well as a wash station for dirty dishes. I was motorcycle camping and Kenny brought over a bundle of wood with some starter for me. I wished I could have stayed longer but I was through camping heading north. Very Serene setting and very affordable. It was very easy to book online and all of the information materials were waiting for me at my site.

This is a beautiful park. We just went to walk around after dinner. It's peaceful and the lake was calm; no crazy boating theatrics to watch. Met a few people walking their dogs. It looks like a great place to stay with enough room to roam. Or a nice place for a weekend picnic... They have a few gazebos at the lakes edge complete with tables and grill. (May have to reserve these.)

Great campground. Fabulous state park. Well maintained roads and trails. The lake has so much history. This place is amazing! The water is crystal clear. The beach is beautiful. The cabins are amazing. I can't wait to come back. This would be a great place for a family reunion. It was nice to visit in September when there were less people. The sunsets on the lake were stunning. We went bike riding on the trails and saw hundreds of deer. We also went kayaking in the morning and were amazed by the rock formations against the lake. So astounding! What a hidden gem. So glad we found it even though we were only able to stay one night at the campground on our way south. Really cool history here with a historic house, markers and signs explaining the history and an even cooler interactive historic website.
