Beautiful Yurts and cabins, but unfortunately I can't say much about some of the staff. Indoor Pool was closed, Hot Tubs were just soaking tubs, horseback riding is charged to owners now, golf course disappeared, and the General Store was half emptied and WAY overpriced. 4 pk of beer for almost $15 was ridiculous... Hilton better step up with this facility...

Shenandoah Crossings is one of my families favorite camping spots. Unlimited amenities to choose from, a gorgeous, extremely big lake with tons of good fish. Great Basketball and Pickleball courts, and RV sites are top of the line! Love it here!

The RV park is fantastic. Spaces are not on top of each other. Concrete slab, includes 6 composite Adirondack chairs. Gas grill. Fire pit ring.

We are owners (timeshare) here. This resort is one of our top favorites. We stayed at the RV park section of the resort again this trip. Nearly all of the sites are pull thrus with full hook ups and all concrete pads. Large sites and all have tables, chairs, gas grills, outdoor sink, and fire rings. Our site was plenty big enough for our class A motorhome and tow dolly. The General Store is within walking distance. There is also a game room and outdoor pool by the store.

My wife and I were invited down for the week by my sister and brother in law. We had a great time, the 3 room cabin was clean, and had plenty of room for everyone. For me, just being off from work in the woods was just what the doctor ordered. Being able to cook whatever you wanted and grill out was great! We are definitely planning a return trip!
