Virginia State Parks

Claytor Lake is a-callin y'all!

We spent a week at Claytor Lake State Park, we chose cabin 13 as it is the only one with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. All the cabins are waterfront at Claytor Lake State Park, by the way. But having a mostly female family we knew this was the best cabin for us!

Cabin 13 is situated on a cove or as they say hollow, right on the water's edge

MORE ABOUT CABIN 13: Three bedroom, two bath (ADA Accessible), fireplace, HVAC, large eat-in kitchen with modern appliances, family room, windows to let the view in. This is a housekeeping cabin which in a nutshell means all the linens and kitchen ware is provided for you. Bring the food, the kids, the dog, the bikes and the canoe!

OVERNIGHT FACILITIES: Cabins and camping. For information on availability of overnight accommodations, particular park amenities or to make a reservation, you can reserve online or call 800-933-PARK (7275). Click here for park fees. Cabin check-in is 3 p.m., check-out is 10 a.m.  

          You can reserve cabins up to 11 months in advance, so I am sharing this info with you so you can book this cabin for next year, if it is already reserved for the rest of this Summer or Fall. This park is also open in the Winter months, and makes a great romantic winter getaway.

Drive Time to Claytor Lake State Park: Northern Virginia, 5 hours; Richmond, 4 hours; Tidewater/Norfolk/Virginia Beach, 5 hours; Roanoke, 1 hour. Click here for a Google map.
