About this campground
Sherando Lake Recreation Area is known locally as the jewel of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Families enjoy picnicking in this shaded and woody area, while relaxing on the sandy beach of a 25-acre spring-fed lake. Access to multiple trailheads and rustic architecture provide numerous points of interest for families to enjoy. The Group Camping area is designated for tent camping only. There are five distinct campsites suitable for up to 15 campers each. When all five campsites are occupied by a single group, the Group Size Limit is 75 people. A large grassy common space in the middle of the Group Camp Area is a great place to gather or organize pick up ball games.
