Campsite was accurate described. Host was gracious and communicated quickly. Location was centrally located to lots of areas. Luray to the north, Elkton just around the corner, and Waynesboro to the south. Campsite was nice. Even with houses closer by, it was quiet and felt secluded. Except for maybe some nearby roosters to wake you up. Their horses loved to say hello especially once they learned you have apples for them. Would definitely stay here again.

I have nothing but wondeful things to say about this campground. It was clean, beautiful, accomodating and friendly. There was plenty of turn around space to maneuver our camper. The dumping station was well kept and easy to pull up to. The creek was beautiful along the back of the campground and we had wonderful conversations with the host and he was very inviting. There is a train that runs on the other side of the creek which we found to be exciting to watch and it was quiet so it did not wake us up. There is an enclosed dog walking area which was nice for our dogs. We will definitley be back.

We loved tent camping at Swedish Lilac. The babbling river, the sounds of the trains (not too loud and we loved it), and Fritz, the host, made our time memorable. The bathrooms were very clean and convenient. We will definitely be back!!

The good: Friendly, helpful staff, pleasant out-of-the-way valley with a small river running along the edge of the campground. Convenient to Lexington and Fairfield and Buena Vista. Bathrooms are clean. Free firewood was offered during our stay. The not as good: No on site waste hookup, and the dump station is on the wrong side of the driveway. There is a train track just on the other side of the river that has freight trains at 2am, 4am, and 10am (at least during our stay). Some sites are awkwardly arranged. Bathrooms are not heated. Overall: Don't let the negatives discourage you from staying here, I mentioned them only so you will not be surprised. It is a peaceful campground despite the occasional freight train. Well away from major roads and light pollution, with a very friendly staff who make sure you get there by the best route and guide you to your site. Stayed during winter, two nights were below freezing, so occupancy was very low. I believe they have activities during the summer months.

We arrived a little late and had requested a late checkin when booking. Fritz was great! He communicated promptly and was there to walk us to our site, even offering to bring us firewood. Restrooms were clean.

This place was absolutely fantastic. Cannot wait to visit again some time next year. Spots were spaced beautifully and felt private and peaceful. Tons of trees and even some nice trails to walk on the property. Stayed two nights and loved it.

We enjoyed our stay and plan to return. Listening to the river and campfire was quite pleasant. The occasional train passing by is very similar to camping at James River SP and Powhatan SP. The views of the night sky are spectacular. Valerie and Fritz were wonderful hosts!

A hidden gem. Beautiful area. It's a clean and simple, no-frills campground. The hosts are personable and welcoming. The only negative is that the dump station is on the wrong side of the road when exiting the campground and pitched slightly downhill once you do get situated to dump. Bigger rigs will have some difficulty getting turned around and positioned properly. I loved the place - the minimal amenities and smaller campground fit our camping style perfectly.

The sites were spacious and the firewood was abundant. Our site was next to the river, which added to the experience with ambient water sounds. The bath house was very clean, but it is good to note that that they are not heated if you are camping in cooler weather. The hosts were very friendly and we would definitely camp there again to explore more of the area.

We spent a peaceful night on Vickie's land. GPS took us right to the driveway, we pulled in to a nice level lot with picturesque surroundings and great views. The 30 amp hook-up was especially nice on a chilly late October night to run a small space heater. Our host was very responsive to all communications.

Spent three nights here at spot 11. Loved it. Very spacious spot with a large grass field beside it that leads to a picnic and ping pong table covered area. There's a road on one side of the campground but that didn't bother us too much. Beyond the creek on the other side are some railroad tracks that, again, didn't really bother us. The bathrooms were clean and the showers were hot. They offer free WiFi that works throughout the campground and free firewood, never seen that before. Owners were friendly and attentive. We will be back!

Hearts of gold! These folks are excellent hosts. Happy to have elec for this stay, a place to walk my dog, panoramic views, and star-filled nights. Grass was level. Even after a heavy rain and surprise October thunderstorm the field was dried out. Restaurants in either direction (Shenandoah and Elkton), duckpin bowling, Bear Lithia farm market, Massanutten resort, local Stonewall park has walking paths, dog park, and more. Vickie and her family will take great care of you.
