About
Built around the reservoir that cools a nearby nuclear power plant, Lake Anna State Park sits on the site of a former 19th-century gold mine, with a visitor center that tells that story. The park has a year-round swimming beach, a boat launch, and a campground with both no-hookup and electric-and-water sites that welcome RVs up to 60 feet; cabins, lodges, and a yurt add more overnight options (not counted in the total above).
