Shenandoah National Park Camping

Big Meadows Intermittent Power Outages

Starting Tuesday, April 9, there will be intermittent power outages in the Big Meadows area for three weeks due to extensive repairs. Outages will affect campground bathrooms. The visitor center and wayside have generators, but WiFi may be affected.

Shenandoah's four main campgrounds are operated by the National Park Service and are open spring through fall and feature spacious tent, trailer and RV sites.
