A decent campground at Natural Bridge State Park. Several nice sized campsites and some really nice ones on a creek. The bathrooms are ok but hot water was so so in October. Biggest issue is that the road noise can be very loud in the campground. I have been here once before in 2022 and road noise did not seem as loud.

Campground is centrally located to all activities. Bathhouses are air conditioned. Make sure you have long power chord and water hose for some sites. Pull through sites were very narrow and at 90 degrees vs back in sites have angle parking. Note: if you ask for a 30 ft site length, that is the true length of the site. No extra space for your vehicle. most vehicles have park on the gravel pad.

Stayed here in Mid April. Had tent spot #11. It was the last spot on the lead in road and was very private and scenic. All these tent sites are near the creek. * Bathroom a good walk away, including a small hill. It would be hard to stealth pee in these sites. ** The main road runs right above your tent prepare for road noise. ( Not as much at night of course). *** These tent sites are in the shad...

It would be hard to stealth pee in these sites. ** The main road runs right above your tent prepare for road noise. ( Not as much at night of course). *** These tent sites are in the shade until like 1030 am. If you want morning Sun for heat book the electric sites across the creek closest to the bridge. If you like to sleep in or it's summer these tent sites are best. **** Except for sites #1 and #11 you are fairly close to your neighbors. Bathrooms were a permanent structure with 2 usable showers. This campground was very close to both the Gorge underground and Natural Bridge State Park and the trails etc. Overall a nice place to camp.

Sites are close together but still feel private. We were able to fit 2 tents, a Canopy, and a small SUV. Our site butted up to a creek which had fish, turtles, and crawdads, we saw people kayaking in there. There are a few more secluded spots on the creek by they are further away from the bathroom. There aw electric hookups but ours was pretty far from the tent but we brought a 50 foot extension c... Sites are close together but still feel private. We were able to fit 2 tents, a Canopy, and a small SUV. Our site butted up to a creek which had fish, turtles, and crawdads, we saw people kayaking in there. There are a few more secluded spots on the creek by they are further away from the bathroom. There aw electric hookups but ours was pretty far from the tent but we brought a 50 foot extension cable so it wasn't an issue. We really enjoyed our time here, we were close to all of the trails we wanted to hike and people respected quiet hours, it was a lovely time. No playground but kid was never bored.
