The primitive aspect of the camping must be considered. But if you like to fish, like a more primitive and less crowded setting, like to canoe or like river activities, make note of this new camping opportunity. While it's not for those who bring hair dryers and fans, if you don't mind roughing it, you'll love the park. From U.S. 60 West, turn right onto Route 605 at the James River Bridge. Travel seven miles, then turn left onto Route 606.
Potable water is, however, available at restrooms and shelters.
Walk-ins are highly discouraged. Walk-in customers should make sure a site is available before using the honor system, and are only guaranteed a site one night at a time. There are two distinctly different camping areas. Tents only, however standard vans or pickups with camper tops are permitted. They are heavily wooded sites near a pond and are very secluded.
