Watermelon Park & RV Campground

This was our first time using watermelon park for our tubing adventure. We had a great time. They were able to accommodate all 30 of us, they got ya checked in on the water as fast as possible. Their team was friendly and Candace our bus driver was hands down the best driver! Thanks for taking wonderful care of us and ensuring we had everything we could need for a wonderful time! They do have larger inner tubes and all their tubs have handles. ;-)

So I did leave a Positive Review I get into my stay but the Lady that runs the park has completely and conveniently changed my mind. 1. Originally when I checked out their web site, it advertised Free WIFI. When I arrived, I was given a WIFI password. But I could not get it to work. I called the office. She said it only for the daily campers because of distance. I told her I have a Kings Falcon WIFI receiver, so it will go out miles. So I asked again, which one it was. Then I finally got the truth. There is no WiFi. I had to go pay for T-Mobile home internet. No wifi but she definitely has cameras that can tell her your speed. She texts if you go 2 mph over 5mph. 2. I took a new job and told her on a Thursday I was leaving and asked her for the prorated amount for the 5days I was there.

Great campground! Owners are very nice and the park itself is well kept and beautiful! Being right next to the Shenandoah River is really nice. If you are trying to go fishing, I suggest going up river a little bit where the water is deeper. There were a lot of fish there but none of them bit for us. 😓 the campground store opens on Memorial Day so it might be closed when you visit. The campsites all didn’t have sewers (I think) so you will need to use the dump station. Great campground, amazing views, worth a visit!

We had a wonderful stay at this campground! Even though we had a lot of things pop up during our trip, the owner was incredibly kind and helped us out every step of the way. She even came and opened the gate for us early thanksgiving morning because we unexpectedly arrived early. She truly went above and beyond, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her guests. The campsite was very clean, well-kept, and easy to get around, which made everything even better. We’re really grateful for the hospitality and would happily stay here again. Highly recommend!

The park flooded before and while we were there We were offered money back if we wanted but we stayed and were well taken care of despite the craziness of rvs having to be moved from water rising. Watched the clean up after water receded. Everyone was busting butt to get things back in order.
