John H. Kerr Dam and Reservoir Camping

John H. Kerr Dam and Reservoir has 14 reservable campgrounds, booked through Recreation.gov — including Island Creek Park, Ivy Hill Park, Palmer Point Park, Tailrace Park, Grassy Creek Park and Old Picnic Area (John H Kerr). It's one of the camping destinations we track in Virginia.

Campgrounds here are in high demand and can sell out within minutes of release, so cancellations are often the only way to get a site. Campsite Tonight monitors every John H. Kerr Dam and Reservoir campground around the clock and automatically adds an open site to your Recreation.gov cart the moment a cancellation appears.
