Although we only made a short stop here we really liked the park. Everything was exceptionally clean and well maintained. There are restrooms, a nature center, a gift shop and amphitheatre. The park also has a horse livery, camping and boat ramps. There are several picnic tables - some are out in the open, some in shaded areas, and a couple alongside the New River. The views of the river are amazing. Didn't have a chance to do it this last time, but intend to return and do some kayaking. There is also access to the New River trail. The trail is open for biking, hiking, and horseback riding.
I love this park, I grew up riding, hiking and running this trail. My only problem is parking fee that was added a few years ago.
Very good for biking and makes a great hiking place. Lots of places to get on and off the trail and beautiful scenery and gorgeous bridges. Perfect place for families and people of all ages
The most absolute beautiful and serene views of the New River. We rode bikes to shot tower and then did the Claytor Lakes side (not all the way, no where near!) But it was wonderful. Will definitely do it again
One of my favorite places in the world. The NRTSP is the perfect spot to spend the day or a week, if you want to. Baker's Island has 7 camp sites- 3-7 are small, with room for 1-2 tents each and 1 and 2 are large sites that accommodate numerous tents. All are relatively separate from each other save for 6 and 7 so if you rent 6 (the most convenient site to get to), I would just rent 7 too. The whole park, especially the island, is peaceful and the river below the falls can be waded most of the year when the river is at its normal level. Fishing in the falls, you can pull walleye and smallmouth bass as well as the occasional brim.
