After doing a day trip to Powhatan State Park<\/a> on the James River earlier in the month, we knew we wanted to camp there as soon as we could. A lot of campgrounds are booked solid on weekends, but when I checked reserveamerica.com<\/a> towards the end of the week, two sites had opened up at Powhatan due to cancellations. Yay, I was able to make a reservation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friday, April 23rd was a crazy-busy day for both of us (made a bit crazier by planning to go camping!), but at the same time we were excited to get out! Fortunately, traffic on I-64 East wasn’t too bad for a Friday, and at the Gum Spring exit we turned onto Rt. 522 South. When we reached the small town of Goochland, we stopped at a Food Lion to pick up a few items we’d forgotten. This is somewhat typical for the first camping trip of the season. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next stop, Powhatan State Park and River Bend Campground!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our reservations were for site #15, with water and electric hookups. Such a nice, big, level site! All of the sites in River Bend have water and electric, all are “site specific,” and all of them are actually pretty nice. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n
