See This Park!

by dr-gonzo , Aug 13 '01
Pros: Fantastic scenery, abundant opportunities to view wildlife.
Cons: Some facilities are not on par with experiences at other National Parks.
It's a wonder Shenandoah National Park isn't visited by more people from outside Virginia and its surrounding states, because at only about a 13-15 hour drive from Boston, it's accessible to just about everyone on the east coast, and far less congested...

Pros: Nature's Beauty, Mountain Drive
Cons: Little Creature Comforts, Not an Amusement park for the Kids
I have been on Skyline Drive exactly twice. So before reading any further, realize you aren't going to get a "townie's" view of the area. I only know what I saw.
