Misty Mountain Camp Resort

92 RV Sites, 16 Cabins, 15 Tent Sites

Misty Mountain Camp Resort in Greenwood, Virginia, is a full-hookup camp resort with RV sites, tent sites and cabin rentals, an outdoor pool, a fitness center and a clubhouse, set half a mile off Interstate 64 at the eastern foot of the Blue Ridge. The property is big-rig friendly and takes coaches up to 90 feet, which makes it one of the more accommodating options in the Rockfish Gap corridor between Charlottesville and Shenandoah National Park. Full-hookup RV sites handle rigs to 90 feet, with a dump station on site for guests who need it. Tent sites suit campers who want the mountain setting without hauling a rig, and cabin rentals provide enclosed lodging for guests traveling without either. A general store covers basics, propane is available by both fill and exchange, and firewood is sold on site. Bathrooms, showers and laundry are available throughout the season, and WiFi reaches the sites. On-site recreation is unusually deep for a campground this size. An outdoor pool anchors the summer season, with a fitness center and clubhouse open year-round and a recreation center for indoor gathering. Sports courts host basketball and volleyball, and horseshoes and corn hole fill the space between. A playground serves younger guests, a fenced dog park serves the four-legged ones, and walking trails run the property past a pond and the creek that crosses the grounds. A covered pavilion hosts planned activities, live music and visiting food trucks through the summer, and the resort also operates as a wedding venue. Gem mining and gold panning round out the on-site programming. Pets are welcome. Shenandoah National Park's southern entrance at Rockfish Gap is 20 miles north, where Skyline Drive begins its 105-mile run along the Blue Ridge crest and the Blue Ridge Parkway heads south toward Cherokee. Charlottesville lies 15 miles east on I-64, putting Monticello, the University of Virginia and the Downtown Mall within a half-hour drive, and the Greenwood-area wineries sit closer still. Misty Mountain operates through Albemarle County's four-season climate. Spring wildflowers from April into May and fall foliage from mid-October into early November are the two peak windows, and both draw heavily from the Richmond, Northern Virginia and Washington markets. Book well ahead for fall color weekends and for the summer live-music calendar.

BluFin Bungalows & Marina

Chincoteague Island, Virginia, sits at the narrow end of a causeway connecting the Eastern Shore to the barrier islands of Assateague, where one of the Atlantic Coast's most distinctive wildlife spectacles plays out each summer. BluFin Bungalows & Marina positions guests at the water's edge in Chincoteague's working waterfront district, combining conventional bungalow accommodations with the property's most unusual offering: the Bungalow Boats, floating accommodations moored at the marina that put guests literally on the water. For anyone who has ever wanted to sleep rocking gently in a coastal tidal channel surrounded by marsh and open sky, BluFin delivers that experience. The property offers both land-based bungalows and the floating Bungalow Boats, which are self-contained units moored at the marina dock — a genuine novelty that makes this one of the few places on the Virginia coast where a night on the water doesn't require boat ownership. The marina provides access to Chincoteague Channel and the tidal waters surrounding the island, with crabbing and fishing immediately accessible from the dock. Soft-shell and blue crab are the local specialty, and the channel produces flounder, rockfish, and red drum for those fishing from the pier or launching kayaks from the property. Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge covers the southern portion of Assateague Island across the bridge from town, protecting one of the East Coast's finest shorebird habitats and the internationally famous Chincoteague ponies — a herd of feral horses that has inhabited the island for centuries, believed by some to be descended from survivors of a Spanish shipwreck. Guests staying at BluFin are within easy reach of the refuge's beach, dunes, and pine maritime forest, along with Assateague Lighthouse, whose distinctive red spiral stripes make it one of the most photographed structures on the Delmarva Peninsula. The Chincoteague Pony Swim, held annually on the last Wednesday and Thursday of July, has drawn crowds to the island since the 1920s. On the appointed morning, the pony herd is rounded up by volunteer Saltwater Cowboys and swum across the Assateague Channel to Chincoteague, where foals are auctioned to benefit the local fire company before the adults swim back. The event fills every available accommodation on the island and surrounding area weeks in advance, and watching the ponies emerge from the channel is one of the genuinely memorable wildlife moments available anywhere on the East Coast. Kayak tours of the refuge's back channels offer intimate wildlife viewing year-round. Summer is high season on Chincoteague, with the Pony Swim in late July representing the island's absolute peak demand period — plan reservations months in advance if that event is the draw. Spring and fall bring migratory waterfowl and shorebirds to the refuge in enormous numbers, making shoulder-season visits especially rewarding for birders; the crowds thin dramatically after Labor Day. Winter is quiet and uncrowded, with the ponies visible on the beach and excellent birding without competition for viewing spots. The island's restaurants, galleries, and gift shops cater to visitors year-round, though some seasonal businesses close November through March.

A full marina with boat rentals, boat ramp, boat docks, and boat storage joins an outdoor pool, beach, sports courts, and walking trails. RV sites carry full hookups.
