About
Claytor Lake State Park campgrounds occupy a scenic stretch of the 4,500-acre Claytor Lake in Virginia's New River Valley. The park offers 103 campsites distributed across four campgrounds, each with distinct character. Dogwood Campground accommodates larger RVs up to 40 feet with 20/30-amp electric and water hookups, pull-through sites, and a universally accessible bathhouse. Birch Campground handles RVs up to 30 feet with 20/30/50-amp service plus four rental yurts. Alder and Cedar Campgrounds provide primitive camping for tents and smaller trailers up to 20 feet. 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. Quiet hours run 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., and generators are prohibited in campgrounds. Outside firewood is not permitted; wood is available for purchase at the park.
