Discover Sandy River Reservoir RV rentals for memorable road trips

Sandy River Reservoir lies in eastern Virginia, an hours drive west of Virginia’s capital Richmond, near the towns of Farmville and Hampden-Sydney. Nestled away in the Piedmont Hills of Virginia, Sandy River Reservoir was only created in 1994 and is relatively unknown by campers. Its secluded location combined with its excellent recreational opportunities makes it the perfect place to take an RV rental. Access to the reservoir with a rental RV is made even easier with Highway 460 running along its eastern shores. Many campgrounds can also be found throughout Prince Edward County, which makes camping with an RV here a simple task.
