Spring and fall are the sweet spot for RV travel. Days are comfortable, biting insects are less aggressive, and campground availability is easier outside school holidays. At Pocahontas State Park, spring and fall bring mild weather and vibrant scenery, while summer offers a full range of activities with higher temperatures and more visitors.
Summer is peak season. Kings Dominion, Soak City, and the KOA pool all run at full tilt, and demand for nearby sites climbs from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

How to book near Glen Allen

Summer weekends and holidays fill fast, so booking several months out is smart.
