This park is exactly what I was looking for. I live full time in my camper van and wanted a place…read morethat I could park and not have to drive to get groceries, go to the post office, do laundry... etc. BUT I also wanted a place that was quiet and still felt like I was in nature. The park is designed so that each lot has the creek behind it. Right outside my window I have a beautiful view and a lovely sound to fall asleep to. Each spot has its own picnic table and a nice level gravel ground. It also is in walking distance to the Virginia Creeper Trail! If you don't know what that is, check it out! Another fabulous thing about this park was that my Verizon Cell service was clear enough to stream television online from abc.go.com. YAY! You will need to have your own bathroom and be fully self contained in your vehicle. The price is affordable! I don't ever use all the stuff that KOA's and resorts have... but end up paying for all of it. This is nice because it has a little more of a "camp" feeling and you don't have to sacrifice your whole months paycheck. LASTLY - Damascus is SUPER friendly! EVERYONE says hello when they walk by. Seriously, 1 out of every 50 people say, "hi, how are ya?" And check out the Blue Blaze Cafe... surprisingly good food in such a small town. Burger is dee-lish! OH and one last thing! I came for Trail Days but ended up staying a whole month. I pretty much have the whole place to myself, too! It's super relaxing and sorta nestled behind a quiet little neighborhood street. The walk into town is about 15-30 min depending on how fast or where you want to go. It's a pleasant, safe, and pretty walk. I wish there were more parks like this all over. I have a 22ft sprinter van conversion, by the way.

They are both two bedroom, the one on the hilltop has two bathrooms as well as a marble gas log fireplace. Everything from the architectural elements, the high end amenities, idyllic antique furnishings with whimsical elements entwined. Discreetly obscured from view amongst the gorgeous mountain settings. Hushed from noise with the exception of a distant train whistle creating a harmonious environment for time spent reflecting and rejuvenating. Wallow in the comfort and savor the local wines. Visit the local historic sites and dine on exquisite sustenance prepared at the local restaurants. You will long remember your time spent at the Cottages On The Creeper

Wow, oh, wow.... where do I begin? I had high hopes for this place, but we should have left the…read moreminute we arrived. They had just opened 10-new 'sites'....which was really just a pile of gravel on the side of a hill. Yes, hill... the owner, Sammy Church, took us to the site, then after I asked him if he could even the gravel out so we could actually get out of camper without falling down the hill, he brought me a shovel. Then, proceeded to tell me I could move it anyway I wanted. WTH?! There was no picnic table or fire ring at the site. After asking for help and no one available, my husband and I went and moved/carried one from the playground area to our site by ourselves. Same with the fire ring. A seasonal resident on a golf cart went took me to the tent site area and help me hunt down a ring to take back to our site. To say I was NOT happy, was an understatement!!! Second - yes, I knew the campground was next to the local high school, but I didn't realize you're basically in the middle of town. One side of the campground is Mount Jefferson, but the other side iS the view of a local car dealership, and Lowes... Third -- again, be mindful about the local high school. The band was practicing on the field before 7am on Saturday morning. OMG! That was really when we should have left. All in all, never again... we would have probably been BETTER off to be camping in a WalMart parking lot.

Campground at the top of the Virginia Creeper Trail. Tent and RV sites with hookups. Our site had…read moresewer hookup, but it was so far in the back that we would have needed three hoses to access it. There is absolutely no cell service, though they had free WiFi at the office and dining area. The owners also manage an on site cafe open Thursday through Sunday morning. We tried the Greek Pizza (though you need to preorder) on Saturday night and had biscuits and coffee for breakfast the next morning. Campers were recommending the scones, but they were already sold out by 9 am. Easy access to the trail, so no need to put your bikes on the rack to get to the White Top station. You just cross the street, turn left and hop on the path to the Virginia Creeper Trail. For those who do not want to cycle back up, there are several bike shuttle services to choose from. We stopped at Main Street Sweets and Eats in Damascus mid way through our ride. Don't miss the opportunity to grab a cold brew coffee, cookies and ice cream to get you through the second leg of the trail.

The showers are the best I have ever seen in a campground: hot water, lovely shower heads, beautiful and accurate amenities. We got breakfast both Saturday and Sunday. Homemade biscuits or bread, with sausage, or bacon, egg and cheese. They have artisan coffee! The sites have water and electricity. THERE is wifi at the office and relaxed indoor and outdoor seating there. The owners are delightful and knowledgeable about everything from gardening to music to outdoor adventure. This area needs the business with so much damage the Creeper Trail. These roads are great for biking. We saw very little traffic. We drove to Damascus, about 30 minutes, and took shuttle to Abingdon for a great ride back to Damascus. THERE is no food on that TRAIL and ingredients for fresh food was hard to find overall. Some light snacks at the Alvarez station which is about half way to Damascus. The Wicked Chicken in Damascus is great.
