Daddy Rabbit's Campground

The Great Outdoors

One of the Blue Ridge Parkway mileposts is Rocky Knob Recreation Area, which is close enough to your RV campground for you to go whether you want to try out the Parkway or not. At Rocky Knob, you can go on guided tours or set out to hike on one of the trails at your own pace, spotting a variety of scenic and historical wonders. Like many species of native trees, and wildflowers in any shade and color you can think of. Or how about the Rocky Knob Cabins, built in the ‘30s and available to rent.You won’t have to drive far in your Floyd camper rental to reach another amazing chunk of nature; Fairy Stone State Park is under an hour's drive away, and here you can find the legendary fairy stones that the park was named after. Again, Blue Ridge Parkway is close by, and there’s swimming, paddling, and rowing in the lake in this park, as well as two playgrounds - one of them also in the water. The fishing is very good, and there is something here for the whole family.For more picturesque lake fun, head toward Smith Mountain Lake State Park, where the attraction of the hour is definitely the large lake. Go swimming, paddling, or fishing (there’s a pier for that), or stay dry and spend some time hiking with views of the amazing nature. In the mood for a picnic? Or perhaps you’d rather learn a little more about the area at a visitor center? Well, you can do both those things, as well as visiting the amphitheater.
