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. Iโ€™m not sure what the nearest town may be but it would be smallโ€“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 MOREโ€ฆ

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

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

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