About
Claytor Lake State Park sits on the shores of the 21-mile-long Claytor Lake in Pulaski County, Virginia. The 472-acre park offers diverse camping options across four campground areas. Dogwood and Birch campgrounds provide sites with electric and water hookups suitable for RVs up to 40 feet (Dogwood) or 30 feet (Birch), while Cedar and Alder are primitive tent camping areas accommodating equipment up to 20 feet. Each campsite includes a picnic table, lantern hanger, and fire ring with metal grill. The park is ideal for water-based recreation, with a full-service marina offering boat slips, fuel, supplies, and rentals including pontoons, kayaks, and canoes. Sport fishing is popular, with bass, catfish, muskie, walleye, and striped bass in the lake. On land, seven miles of easy-rated hiking and biking trails wind through mature oak-hickory-poplar forest where white-tailed deer, raccoons, squirrels, and various bird species are common. Bathhouses throughout the campground provide flush toilets and hot showers. Dump stations are available in Dogwood and Cedar areas. The park also offers four yurts in Birch Campground and a group camping site accommodating up to 35 people.
