We are looking for a good campground near Jeffersonโ€™s Monticello home. Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks

We used to stay at Misty Mountain, but the owner was a piece of work. His dog got to run all over the camp, pooping wherever and he didn't clean up because he was never supervising the dog. Also some of the 50A sites are actually wired for 30, so you keep blowing the breaker. The sites up front are extremely tight so much so that putting out your awning can interfere with your neighbor. And you aren't guaranteed a specific site, so if you request one you KNOW you can fit on easily, you may get a rude surprise when you arrive.

We gave up trying to be comfortable there.

The KOA is about the same cost and the people are much better, sites are better, etc.

Best place to camp in/around Charlottesville is the Charlottesville KOA. The family who owns it is very nice and have made nice improvements to the camp. Lots of pull throughs, but it's not a super large camp, so make your reservations early. I don't believe there are any campgrounds close in to Monticello. My daughter lives in C-ville and we have been visiting/camping there for 15+ years.
