5 Reasons You’ll Love Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park of Natural Bridge

Plus a chance to win a 3-night stay!

 

As our kids are getting old enough to have their own opinions, we have started involving them in our vacation planning. Whether it’s choosing the destination, deciding on the activities, or even picking where to stay (they always want a pool!), our travel has become a family planning activity!

 

On our radar for this year is Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park and Camp Resort in Natural Bridge Station, Virginia.

 

Here are just a few of the reasons my kids–and yours–will love a trip here!

 

 

It’s easy to get to!

Some families love road trips, but we prefer keeping our driving vacations to within a couple hours. Families from Virginia, Maryland, and many other mid-Atlantic states are easily within that radius, as the campground is just 5 miles from historic Natural Bridge, in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. A drive to Jellystone Park will also offer beautiful mountain scenery along the way!

 

Spend time on land or water–or BOTH!

The campground borders the Jefferson National Forest offering access to beautiful hiking trails in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Your family can also tube, kayak, or canoe along the James River. Rather hit the pool? They have that, too, plus a fun splash park!

 

Choose your own accommodations.

Veteran camper? You can truly enjoy nature by setting up your own tent, or bring your own RV and enjoy the familiar feeling of home. Cabins that range from rustic to luxury that can sleep up to 10 people are another option–truly something for everyone!

 

The fun never ends!

We already mentioned the lake and the pool, but Jellystone also offers water slides, mini golf, a playground, game room, and more fun right at the campground. Enjoying a more laid-back pace will let you actually feel like you’re on vacation!  

 

There’s always something to celebrate.

From Mid-March through Thanksgiving, Jellystone hosts themed weekends that include special events and activities. Party with Boo Boo for his birthday, get messy with slip and slime, or celebrate Christmas in July. Find the weekend that sounds like the most fun to you and get your reservation made!
