Crabtree Meadows Campground A.K.A. Crabtree Falls Campground is located along the Blue Ridge Parkway (BRP) in the Blue Ridge Mountains, part of the Appalachian Mountains chain. I’m not sure what the nearest town may be but it would be small–the BRP is a two lane road that runs through the mountains. The campground is off the parkway some distance and I noticed no road noise. It is in a forest of tall deciduous trees so it will be relatively shady after they have leafed out in spring. They were still working on this in mid-May when I was there. http://wp.me/P4exdl-GoREAD MORE…

    Been there done that as well - A great camp site for us... We have tent camped there as well as our POPUP setup...

  • It good to see that the campground has reopened. It had been closed (budget cuts, I believe).

    We knew it as Crabtree Meadows Campground in my tent camping days and was our favorite campground on the Parkway.

  • Nice report. We've visited but never stayed overnight due to lack of hookups. It's a beautiful area.

    There is confusion about the name as I indicated on my blog.
