   Loads of possibilities on this site: http://www.virginia.org/site/content.asp?MGrp=4&MCat=19&MItm=109&Rgn=17000

   Kerr Lake in NC is about 4.5 hours away and has always looked pretty as we drove by http://www.kerrlake-nc.com/index1.cfm

   And Lake Gaston is pretty (and fun to say if you channel Disney’s Beauty and the Beast) http://www.lake-gaston-properties.com/camping.htm

   Smith Mountain Lake is bound to have camping as well: http://smith-mountain-lake.com/

   And, of course, you can always camp on the beach as Assateague. http://www.assateagueisland.com/assateague_camping.htm
