- Wendy MRainbow campground is exactly what we were looking for during our weekend fishing trip. It was November, so many of the seasonal campers were gone and the bath house closed, but we were made aware of that when we made our reservation. We had a full hookup site, so not having a bath house wasn't a problem. There isn't cell service, but there was wifi. It was a little spotty, but worked enough for us to check messages daily. Everyone we came across, including Kevin (the owner), was incredibly friendly and hospitable. There's not many places you go that people motion for you to come over and pull up chairs for you to join them. We placed several games of horseshoes, it can be addictive. We went ahead and made our reservation to return in the spring since peak season runs from April to September and they stock trout 4 times a week during those months. The campground stays hopping during that time and there don't seem to be many nightly sites. Most sites are occupied by season...

- Beth WFantastic stay at the cabin at the Rainbow Campground! We went to the VA Creeper Trail one day, Bristol, TN the next. The host provided little extras that made it feel so homey - and the Tumbling Creek right near the campsite was beyond beautiful. Best vacation I've had in a long while!!!

- k gNice campground with a super host and a lot of community users. Sites were close together so felt more like a neighborhood than a campground but was kind of nice. Be aware there are NO SHOWERS so prepare to be self-contained. Music on Friday nights was superb.
