Located just minutes off exit 29 on I-64 in the beautiful, eastern end of Alleghany County is the newly formed Waltons Campground. This cozy, family owned and managed area offers seven rustic tent campsites and one additional site that can accommodate a small camper not exceeding 15ft in length. Providing a great balance between primitive and comfortable, Waltons Campground offers county furnished, potable water and a non-flush toilet. Every campsite is equipped with a picnic table, fire ring and lantern hanger for your convenience. Parking for one vehicle per site is included within the interior of the campground with additional parking available to the left of the exit. We do not have a shower facility.
Less than 1000 ft across Nicelytown Road you will find the Sharon Park and public access to the pristine Cowpasture River where many kayak, fish, and play all summer long. The charming small town of Clifton Forge is 4 miles away. Less than 10 miles away, Douthat State Park hosts a lake for swimming and fishing, numerous hiking trails, and many other family friendly activities.
Your reservation is not site specific unless you are bringing a small camper. Campsites 1-7 are tent sites, picked on arrival. Campsite 8 is the only camper site.
You may conveniently pay for your stay using Venmo @WaltonsCampground or pay on arrival in the drop box on the side of the firewood stand. Drop your envelope with the reservation name and amount due. Need firewood for your stay? We have $5 bundles, $10 bin and $20 bin options available for purchase. You may use the cash drop box for this, as well.

Nice set-up only drawback it's very close to the road and sites are very close quarters.
Stopped here on the way from PA to TN to get a little bit of sleeping in the car. Called the owners on the way down and they explained you just pull into whatever spot you want and then put the money in the cash box at the front of the campground. Super easy, clean, and very cute little family owned campsite. They also had potable water and a port a potty, which was super convenient. My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and especially being able to walk to the river across the street and enjoy the beautiful views in the morning. Certainly would recommend and would stay again! Thank you, Waltons Campground! 🏕👍🏼
We had a great experience with our Trail Life Troop. The grounds were clean and well-kept, quiet, and had everything we needed. The owners were super responsive and helpful in making this place available to our boys. Sites were marked with our name. The campground is directly across from Sharon Park, which has access to the Cowpasture River. Firewood is available for purchase, and main paths light with motion sensors at night so you can find the restroom. This is a really nice place. It is super simple (perfect for us), but the owners have really thought about a few little things to make it comfortable. Running water is available at a central location.
