Misty Mountain Campground, Charlottesville, Virginia

Campground Review from Elaine

"We stayed here in August 2009. We were first placed up on the hill but found it to be very crowded. We were then put on the lower level and were happy with the site. Although sites were a bit too close together, there was enough room. Management was very pleasant and helpful here. Mostly big rigs but there is a separate area for tents and pop ups that is along the creek. It was very quiet and campers were respectful. They have a small but very nice pool. The area is beautiful, a good base camp for many day trips. We went to Natural Bridge, an amazing spot, and the historical sites in Charlottesville: Monticello, Michie Tavern, and Ashlawn-Highland. Go to the many vineyards in the area-the tastings are inexpensive and fun, and you get to keep the glass! The Blue Ridge Parkway is a short drive away and the scenery is breathtaking. There are also hiking trails along it if you like to hike. Don't miss the gourmet wine and food store just down the road from the campground. Everyone we met in the area was very friendly and helpful. We camped in a trailer and would go back."
