Greenway, Virginia, lures RV travelers with its wild James River bends and instant access to James River State Park's canoe trails. Park at Canoe Landing Group Campsite or Red Oak Campground to launch kayaks from your site and chase smallmouth bass at dawn. These two parks deliver riverside pads that turn a simple trip into Southern Virginia's best outdoor escape.
Greenway hugs the James River's forested shores, where paddlers glide past rocky bluffs and anglers hook trophy fish from gravel bars. James River State Park anchors the action with 2,000 acres of trails, including the 15-mile Reedy Creek loop that climbs to panoramic overlooks. Summer brings the James River Batteau Festival, a rowdy flotilla of historic boats recreating colonial voyages right past town.
Canoe Landing Group Campsite fits rowdy groups and pet lovers with dump stations and riverfront group sites at $15 to $80 per night. Red Oak Campground hooks big rigs with 50-amp power, hot showers, and dump facilities starting from $35 nightly. Both spots position you to bike the park's carriage roads or drive ten minutes to Buckingham's orchards for fresh cider.
