Camping by the farm!

Tent

Such a beautiful farm peacefully nestled along Shenandoah. Area to camp was extremely clean and easy check-in — just stop by the bulletin board. I did go up to the lodge as directed but no need. It was nice though because I learned I could get some hot water for my morning matcha at their coffee station located right in the lodge. Also a beautiful view from up there, and a beautiful clean bathroom if you’d prefer rather than outhouses, which were very clean. Loved being near the horses! Ended up driving myself over to the horse farm for a ride before stopping in the deli and venturing into the park. So great. A much needed R&R for me. No doubt, I’ll be coming back!

Off-Season Car Camping Shenandoah

Tent

We had a very good camping experience at Graves. It had everything we needed, fire, pit, bathrooms, Wi-Fi, and it even had a small market that sold all the supplies you would need for camping next to Shenandoah. When we set up our camp, we set up in an area that we later found out was marked for no camping. Presumably the owner, Lynn Graves, stopped by our campsite to advise that we had set up in a no camping area. He was very polite and did not make us move as we were adjacent to the camping area. We explained that we did not see any signs on our way in and he was very understanding. We were only there for one night and he didn’t make us relocate our campsite. All in all it was a great car camping experience and would recommend for other campers in the off-season in Shenandoah.

Was mostly just some land I was able to stay at. Good for camping. I was the only one there and no one host talked to me. Would recommend this place to my friends

Magnificent place to stay

Magnificent place to stay. Second time staying and everyone is very friendly and their hospitality is amazing. People wave hello and pleasantly stop to say hello. Highly recommend staying here.
