Summary

If you subscribe to the opinion that televisions, Japanese lanterns, and electric guitars are not essential camping equipment, The Best in Tent Camping: Virginia should be your constant companion. This is a guidebook for tent campers who like quiet, scenic, and serene campsites. It's the perfect resource if you blanch at the thought of pitching a tent on a concrete slab, trying to sleep through the blare of another camper's boombox, or waking to find your tent surrounded by a convoy of RVs.

The Best in Tent Camping: Virginia will guide you to the quietest, most beautiful, most secure, and best managed campgrounds in the commonwealth of Virginia. Painstakingly selected from hundreds of campgrounds from the Atlantic to the Appalachians, each campsite is rated for beauty, noise, privacy, security, spaciousness and cleanliness. In addition, each campground profile provides essential details on facilities, reservations, fees, and restrictions, as well as an accurate, easy-to-read map, making the campground a snap to locate.
