I stayed at Montebello about 12 years ago. From what I remember it was nice. That is a very remote area. Don't expect cell phone service. I hope you're driving in from the Blue Ridge Parkway. Coming in from any other way is a very challenging mountain road.
Thanks for the tip. The folks at the CG mentioned that to me at booking.
I'm not too worried about the cell service. Just heading down to relax for a few days. - KD4UPLExplorer III stayed at Montebello about 12 years ago. From what I remember it was nice.

- Bob806Explorer IIII recently booked a place called Montebello Resort. It has mixed reviews, but taking a chance that it's nice.
These last minute planned trips are hard to do in popular areas anymore. - Geo_BoyExplorer II

An excellent family campground in the valley is Shenandoah Valley Campground in Verona, VA. On of our favorites!
When we are heading down to Nashville, we always stop here. - Bill_DianaExplorer

If you want FHU/commercial type places then look at the Luray KOA. It's much nicer than the typical KOA.
Stayed here at least 4 times and never disappointed. The fees are a bit pricey, but nice clean CG with great view of the mountains and a short drive to Skyline Drive. You might have difficulty getting a reservation. - mlburstExplorerAn excellent family campground in the valley is Shenandoah Valley Campground in Verona, VA. On of our favorites!
