I loved this park! This was my first time here. The sites were great, trails were excellent. Our group really enjoyed our stay. Definitely a place to visit. Thank you to the Army Corp of Engineers for maintaining and preserving this park.

We drive up 1.5 hours just for day use. Nice weekend beach/lake getaway.

This Virginia 💞 campground is a gem – sites are spacious and level (a rarity!), the bathhouse sparkles and the hot showers are divine. Plus, the park rangers and deputies' watchful eyes made us feel super safe. This place is clearly well-loved and it shows! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Small campground on the north side of Philpot Lake. Loud during the evening with tons of RV campers and folks driving back and forth to the bathhouse. Once quiet hours started, everyone was very respectful and things were very quiet. Our campsite was covered in trash when we arrived, from the previous night's campers. Tent set-up was on pea gravel, which is a great durable surface but not very comfortable to sleep on. The bathhouse was clean and warm, which was nice as the night we were here it was 45 degrees.

Fun peaceful camping trip. We have a larger 5th wheel unit. Easy access to the lake and a boat ramp. Only has water and electric hookups. There was no way for me to use the dump station. It is a tight turn into and out of it, even for a small unit. Clean bathhouse and showers. Has 2 swimming areas. Had a good time there.

Oh I love this place. We go every weekend. We've only been to the lake part but we have reserved and paid for lot 54 to camp in a tent. It is so beautiful right on the water! Offers grills and soft areas for your tent! The lake Beach area here is my favorite to go to because it's mostly family's and older people. Very quiet and very nice no drama. When things do occur the park office people and the park officer is right on it making sure it stays family friendly. It's quiet and clean and the workers are so very charming. Since we go so often and have the yearly pass they know us now and they are so great with my son! Wonderful place ❤️🌅 just wonderful. They also have cooking areas for people just visiting the lake. It's a little cut off and so darn peaceful they're stairs leading straight to the water from there! That's our new favorite spot!!
