Tripleblaze.com Announces the Top 10 Campgrounds in Virginia

July 8, 2013 - PRLog -- Tripleblaze.com has officially released a list of the top 10 campgrounds in the state of Virginia, one of which is among the top 10 campgrounds in the nation. The Tripleblaze best campgrounds list is compiled using visitors' ratings and reviews that have been collected continuously since 2005.

Although the best campgrounds in Virginia are spread throughout the state, none of the top 10 fall in the far western corner of the state. Three of the top 10 campgrounds, Chippokes Plantation State Park Campground, Bear Creek Lake State Park Campground, and Belle Isle State Park Campground, surround the city of Washington D.C.

Not all the campgrounds are near the coast, but 8 out of 10 are near some body of water. Chippokes Plantation State Park Campground, ranked number one, butts against the James River and acts as a living historical exhibit. Lake Fairfax Park Campground is located next to an 18 acre lake, and both Occoneechee State Park Campground and John H Kerr Dam and Reservoir Campground are located on the 50,000 acre Kerr Lake.

"This list really highlights the great camping opportunities that are available in Virginia," comments Tripleblaze writer, Kelley Spurlock. "From historic sites along the James River to the ever-popular Appalachian Trail, Virginia boasts a wide range of camping locations for everyone."

These campgrounds include a variety of different amenities for campers to enjoy, from the lazy river and swimming pool at Lake Fairfax to the cabins and the archery range at Bear Creek. This top 10 list includes one private campground, Mountain Spring RV Resort Campground, and one primitive campground, Sky Meadows State Park Campground.
