Peaceful River Campground

Judy and I just returned from 3 days enjoying the peace and quiet at Peaceful River Campground! Was cold and beautiful by the river and caught some nice Rainbows to boot! Harvested some pics and released them to swim away to make someone else's day! Looking forward to returning in the spring!

Has potential however bathrooms were disgusting. Even my husband said he wouldn’t be caught dead in the “bath house” Looks like haven’t t been cleaned in a decade. Water from hookups smelled horrible, undrinkable. We were there 20 minutes and pulled out. Don’t waste your time unless you have your own facilities and water!!! Location was 42 Peaceful River Rd, Millboro Va

Peaceful River is a decent place to car camp. It has clean bathrooms and a shower. The tent sites have their own spot right on the river with a large gravel bar. The river is beautiful. Each tent site has a picnic table and fire ring. There’s no water spigot by the tent sites but I found one up near the road. RV lots share a different part of the campground for summer and weekend stays. No one was around during my midweek visit in late March. I would camp here again.

I went tent camping in March and the grounds were beautiful and peaceful. There are a dozen covered places for RV's...most were filled. There are three large tent sites with firepits. The tent sites are on flat, level ground right on the river. There is no check-in station so call ahead to reserve your site. I talked to John and he was a gracious guy. Tent space was $25/night. Firewood was extra.

A great place to stay if you know what you're getting yourself into. The name of the campground is a good description of what to expect. You'll find a quiet campground on the banks of the pristine Cowpasture River. Perfect for relaxing, fishing, floating, etc... Just be aware that this campground is not modern by any means. In terms of hook ups, expect 30-amp electric, water, and no sewer. They do have a dump station, but no sewer connection at your site. They also have a bathhouse that is very old and run down. To be honest, the shower in the men's room looks like a murder scene. The women's room is more clean. With that being said, we still enjoyed our stay. The people were friendly, campground was quiet, and you could enjoy the river just outside of your camper. Things to do in the area if you visit; the Walton Tract, Hot Springs Bathhouse, the Omni Homestead Resort. We would stay here again, just be prepared to shower in your camper and have a plan to deal with your gray water if you're doing an extended stay.
