Every campsite includes a picnic table, lantern hanger, and fire ring with metal grill. Bathhouses with hot showers serve the camping areas, and dump stations are located in Dogwood and Cedar. The park features Virginia's only full-service state park marina, a swimming beach, miles of hiking trails, and a visitor center. Registered campers receive free boat launch access for up to two boats. A group campground in Dogwood accommodates up to 35 people with 10 tents.
