Had a great experience here... Most importantly: the car did NOT reek of ciggie smoke or creepy person body odor. the folks behind the counter were nice. I got a late-model Kia SUV and it was pretty zesty. Only bit of disappointment: the tank was not filled even though they reported it as such. read more

Big thanks due to Avis of C-Ville. Enterprise / Hotwire stranded my wife and I in a new town without wheels, thanks to a surprise credit card policy that flew in the face of everything I've learned about personal finance. However, Avis was able to process our rental professionally and easily with our Visa DEBIT card, making me wonder why I ever even bothered with anyone else! Loretta at the airport Avis desk was super helpful and made us truly feel like valued customers. Traveling in Charlottesville, or anywhere for that matter? Don't pass up the opportunity to do business with these folks! read more

JUST DO NOT DO IT! Avis does not care about your business. They have dirty cars. They double book and when you get there they just say too bad. The people they have at the counter could care less and are very poorly trained. Try and call management to straighten out the problem and they are "not available". So when you next need to "book" a reliable form of transportation....WALK OR TAKE A BUS! read more

I had booked an intermediate and when I arrived at the counter, the gents offered me a choice: SUV or minivan. Do single travelers really choose minivans? So I opted for the SUV. It was a full size Ford Expedition with more than 32000 miles on the odometer. On the plus side, the car was clean and functional. It's just a hog to park and will probably be a rather expensive tank to fill up. It's a short walk from the rental desk to the lot. If it's raining, you are going to get wet.

I arrived an hour earlier then my reservation time so I expected a wait but still got my car right on the hour. The nice young man cleaning the cars explained the land lord won't let them use water to clean the cars by hose so it takes him a bit of time to get them ready. All of you complaining here, maybe you should take a minute and realize the car rental industry was upended by the plandemic and not the staffs fault in any way. Have some patience, I work in customer service and while I was sitting there waiting for my car, I noticed most of the customers had The Veruca Salt attitude....

The campground is famous for its sold out annual Bluegrass festival yet it is gaining attention for its powwow events. It was very easy to find the campground. We went to the Five River Campgrounds for the Third Annual Powwow in Parsons in June 2025. It was the most meaningful pow wow I ever experienced. The owners of the campground (Joyce & John) gave the sales of the tickets to the powwow to the MMIW (Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women) Memorial Grove. The non profit organization is involved in promoting awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women. Some of the performers gave their earnings to MMIW Memorial Grove as well. The Five Rivers Campgrounds owners welcomed us with open arms and immediately noticed us as photographers. We do a lot of philanthropic work in photography yet we rarely get noticed or thanked by many people for it. The owners of the campground were selling tee shirts and stickers with our photography. We had given permission to have our photography used to the performer we have taken the photo of and we were happy to see that he & the owners of the campground were displaying our photography on tee shirts and stickers in the campground shop. The campgrounds are beautiful with views of the mountain. Immediately staff helped us park and alerted us of the speed limit on the campgrounds. The powwow was held outdoors and there was an open air arena with a roof to provide shade. The stage in the venue had a shelter and a good view. You had to provide your own seating, yet we knew that beforehand. The fee for the pow wow was $10 for two days, and we captured the most memorable and beautiful photos we ever took on those days of performers in regalia against green foliage and the mountains. The powwow was small yet the amazing camaraderie and performers were unforgettable. This was one of the finest powwow venues in ambiance, performance, connections, and professionalism we ever experienced.

Colette is a gracious and welcoming host - she's always around and checking on everyone, asking if we need extra blankets or towels etc. Even though they're tents, they are clean! The bedding and towels are soft and smell amazing. There is a central bath house that is clean and has nice showers. Get a tent with a private hot tub if you can - it is worth it! Highly recommend.
