About

Lake Anna Campground sits within Lake Anna State Park's 3,127 acres on the shores of the 13,000-acre Lake Anna, 25 miles southwest of Fredericksburg. The campground offers 46 sites divided between standard non-hookup sites and sites with electric and water hookups, accommodating various camping equipment from tents to RVs up to 60 feet. Each site includes a steel fire ring, picnic table, and lantern holder, with centrally located bathhouses providing hot showers. The south loop bathhouse features a coin-operated laundry facility. Campers enjoy free boat launching, access to the park's guarded swimming beach during summer months, and a 2-acre fishing pond designed for children and people with disabilities. The park features more than 15 miles of trails through mixed hardwood and pine forest, with 12 miles designated for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Lake Anna is known for excellent fishing for largemouth bass, crappie, and bream. The park's visitor center showcases the area's gold mining history, with exhibits on the historic Goodwin Gold Mine. Firewood is available for purchase at the park office, and campers must not bring outside firewood.
