Great trails from easy to difficult. Graveled trail along the river. Dog friendly.
Cozy and clean cabins. Great views from trails. Lots of birding opportunities.
We camped in one of the RV pads. We’re from Florida and this was one of our stops heading to Maine. This was absolutely the best state park we have ever camped in across the country. The pads were very spacious and spread out and the bathrooms and showers were clean. We didn’t explore much of the park but we did go to the overlook and went to the river from the camp loop. We saw many deer, rabbits, and a black cat that must’ve lived somewhere in the campsite. If I lived in VA, I would definitely come back and try out one of the yurts and cabins!
Ran along the river and looped up to Cullers overlook. Great view. I stayed in Camping cabin #41 and it was more than accommodating. I ended up bringing a pair of heaters and was able to keep the cabin comfortable. The park was quiet not too many campers in early December. I definitely look forward to coming back to explore more.
Very nice state park. Thoroughly enjoyed the trail along the river and Culler overlook. First time staying in a camping cabin. Comfortable and clean. I wish the peak vents could be blocked to keep heat in during winter months.
I went to this park in the fall season and it was the best decision. The water is so clear and the views are beautiful. The people who like fishing, this is the best spot for fishing. Also the people who don't like mosquitoes must keep mosquitoes spray. The cabins look cozy and worth staying.
