Montebello Camping & Fishing Resort

I was very leery of this campground after reading some of the warnings about towing trailers there. I know the road is somewhat narrow, but off of the Blue Ridge Parkway, it is just not bad at all. It was so beautiful to be there during the fall and to find an RV Spot that still felt like camping and not just parking in a parking lot. It was stunningly beautiful and the people were all friendly, including the other campers. We enjoyed it immensely. We have a 27 foot bumper pull trailer and our friends have a 30 foot. We had plenty of room for it in our trucks. The lake is stunning and everything is well maintained. The country store is charming and is a place for people from all over who are just passing by. So it is well stocked and has great Wi-Fi for the people staying at the campground

Nice campground, clean bathrooms. No internet, Wi-Fi “provided by campground “ is actually 1/4 mile walk away because you aren’t allowed to drive and sit in your car while connected. Our site had rotting and unstable railroad ties as steps up to the fire ring and picnic table. And finally, there was an old discarded mattress in wooded about 20 feet from the fire ring, which was so gross.

My family stayed in the Crabtree cabin. The cabin was very cozy and clean. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with the necessary utensils to cook and to use the grill. Each cabin has a front porch with a table and chairs, a charcoal grille, and a firepit that can be cooked on surrounded by Adirondack chairs. The camp store is just a short walk away and carries most of the necessities including firewood. There is a lake that you can kayak and fish on. There is no parking that I could find down near the lake though, so we had to drop off our kayaks at the water and then go back and park the truck at the cabin again. There is no cellphone service out there. They do have wifi located in the playground area and it doesn't reach any of the cabins, but, really, I think you

We've been going to Montebello campground for several years. It's one of our favorite mountain spots close to home. Its about 3 hours from the peninsula area of Virginia. We have a 25ft camper and going up the Blue Ridge Parkway and secondary highway is a manageable drive. The campground is very near Crabtree Falls which is definitely worth a hike if you haven't been. Ask the locals at the camp store for the other great fall overlook, but requires a 4WD vehicle, although gorgeous and worth it! There is also an Appalachian Trail entry point nearby as well if that's your jam. The grounds are well kept, all the amenities, W/E/S. The bath house is always clean and well lit. They have a stocked trout pond and a spacious camp store (WE MISS THE CAFE). We've also stayed in the cabins and LOVE th

Very quiet and secluded. Great camp host and nice little store. Curvy road getting there, but the proximity to the Blue Ridge Parkway is terrific! Weekly rates are super cheap for fhu.
