Sherando Lake Campground
AI-suggested draft · review before you go
Sherando Lake Recreation Area is known locally as the jewel of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Families enjoy picnicking in this shaded and woody area, while relaxing on the sandy beach of a 25-acre spring-fed lake. Access to multiple trailheads and rustic architecture provide numerous points of interest for families to enjoy. Loop A campsites are generally smaller and suitable for tents or small trailers (not all sites). Loop B and Loop C are larger and include electric pedestals for an added fee (including 110 / 30 / 50 amp outlets). All campsites available by reservation only (Recreation.gov)
