Peaks Of Otter Campground

<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>The Peaks of Otter Campground is nestled between the bases of two dominating mountains in the rolling hills of Virginia.  Campers enjoy a rare serenity in this rustic setting.  Relax, and leave your cares behind!</p>
<h2>Recreation</h2>
The 24-acre Abbott Lake is one of the biggest attractions the Peaks of Otter Park has to offer. The lake is well-stocked with small mouth bass and bluegill. A crystal-clear mountain stream winds through the nearby picnic area.
<br/><br/>
Numerous hiking opportunities range from demanding, scaling the area's high mountain peaks, to the moderate short, flat trail around Abbott Lake. Hikers are likely to stumble upon one of the mountain meadows, filled with wildflowers and migrating butterflies in the spring and a fantastic assortment of colors in the fall.
<br/><br/>
Abundant wildlife like deer and wild turkey are spotted daily at the Peaks of Otter Campground, and many rare species of birds reside or migrate along the mountain ranges. Summer interpretive programs are provided for visitors to learn about the wildlife as well as the history of the area.<h2>Facilities</h2>
<p>Campsites are shaded under an umbrella of thick trees, and provide campers with picnic tables, lantern poles, and campfire rings/grills. The campground also offers modern conveniences like flush toilets, drinking water and a dump station. </p>
<p>Peaks of Otter Campground almost always has campsites available. In addition to the 60 sites available for advance reservation, there are 79 first-come, first-served campsites available.  Availability of first come, first served sites cannot be tracked through Recreation.gov.  These sites must be booked in person at the campground kiosk.</p>
<h2>Natural Features</h2>
<p>Three mountain peaks sitting atop a thick blanket of forest make up the Peaks of Otter-- a recreational oasis spanning acre upon acre of rolling landscape along the famous Blue Ridge Parkway.<br> <br>The Blue Ridge Parkway is a scenic byway that follows the high crests of the central and southern Appalachians for 469 miles from Shenandoah National Park in Virginia, to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina.</p>

<h2>Nearby Attractions</h2>
<p><strong>The Peaks of Otter Lodge and Restaurant</strong> are located within walking distance of the campground, as is the <strong>Sharp Top Country Store</strong>. Restaurant dining, grab-and-go meals, snacks, souvenir items, camping supplies, firewood, and ice are all readily available to campground patrons.<br>  <br>The <strong>Johnson Farm</strong>, an old mountain farmstead restored and preserved to look as it did in the mid-1800s, is just a short walk away. Another restored historic structure, <strong>Aunt Polly's Ordinary</strong>, sits on the northeastern shore of Abbott Lake.</p>
