Christopher Run Campground is located in Mineral, just a short drive from Lake Anna State Park.

Park Manager, Doug Graham and I visited the campground with intentions to support and get to know our friendly neighbors. We met with co-owner, Kristy Bazzanella, as she gave us a tour of the campground and everything they have to offer. With access to the lake and beautifully maintained facilities, we highly recommend this campground to those looking for an affordable family getaway.

This cabin has a kitchen, bathroom, electricity, including heat and A/C.

There are a variety of campsites to accommodate everything from tent camping to large trailers and RVs. Fully equipped cabins are available to rent, or complete hookups with spacious wooded campsites for your popup or tent camping experience. A Laundromat, bathhouse with hot showers, recreation hall, camp store, playground, picnic pavilions and even a miniature golf course, ensures you'll have everything you need at your fingertips.

Private and wooded campsites

Christopher Run offers plenty of social activities, incase you're looking for entertainment or a chance to meet other campers. Planned events are held throughout the season including cocktail parties, Fourth of July fireworks, DJ dances, karaoke, kid-friendly competitions and lots of other special weekend activities- check here to see what they're all about! 

With water access to the lake being a major draw for boat lovers, the campground's six boat ramps make for a quick easy launch. There's a 50 wet-slip marina with dry storage and inside/outside storage (check rates here). Complimentary boat tie-ups are offered so you can let your mind rest at ease while enjoying your time with the family.  If you don't own a boat, don't worry! Canoes, kayaks, hydro-bikes and V-hulls are available to rent by the hour, or by the day. For safety, a roped off area for swimming only is also on site. Fishing piers with a live bait shop at the camp store, is available for your added convenience.

Picnic pavilions are available to rent

Not only were Doug and I impressed with how meticulously maintained the campground was, but also with how many activities and things there are to do! The staff and campers were very friendly, and courteous, all the while enjoying their stay. Jean and daughter Kristy Bazzanella, are a family owned private campground that comes very highly recommended for families with children of all ages.
