Battle of Cedar Creek Campground



 Battle of Cedar Creek Campground, Virginia is a nice and friendly small park that even though it wasn’t what we wanted was extremely useful to stop at. The park manager (Chris) got our microwave screwed in so it won’t fall out on our heads anymore. He was great and very helpful in terms of getting the washrooms and showers working and heated for us despite the building being under construction for the season.  This was also after the 100s of phone calls we had made to him the night before when trying to find the site (it was a large pull through site that to us just looked like a road) and get the water hooked up at 10pm.

 The park has canoes we could have used to go up the creek but since we didn’t really get going until 2pm we decided to just get on the road and keep heading south instead. The creek did look very nice and it would have been a nice experience. Everyone in the park had little dogs and Beka got her ankles attacked by a very fluffy Pomeranian that was upset with her for not continuing to pet him. 
We drove about 3 hours south along I81 to Claytor Lake State Park. After leaving so late we didn’t get there till dark and Brooke went to bed soon after we did some updated planning for our route and schedule that would compensate for our delays so far. Beka and I went for a short night hike from the campsite to the beach. It was quite lovely to get out even for a short period of time and walk.
