Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Learn more about this land: Our scenic Dan River primitive campsite is private and secluded. It has plenty of cleared space for setting up a tent or tents to camp. It has wooded area all around the cleared campsite space with two access spots to the Dan River. One access spot is shared with our second site, Riverside Shepard's Camp. Camps are far enough apart for good privacy. The site sits on about a one acre lot. Great for fishing, sun bathing or just putting your feet in the water and relaxing! It has a built in fire pit. This is a great space for family camping! It has plenty of shade and a nice large flat space for easy tent set-up. If you kayak or canoe the river, our site makes for easy access in or out.

Highly disappointed left in tears
Tent · With kids ·
We had an absolutely horrible experience at this site. Beginning with the check in time on the listing stating 10 am, when en route with an ETA of 12:00, I texted the host and she replied saying that check-in time was 3:00 and she’d have to figure out how to meet us early. After realizing the website was incorrect, the host was able to meet. I did notice that the listing has been updated now with a later check in time, so future visitors shouldn’t run into that problem. But it was a scramble that started things off rattled. The host met us at the entrance of the site. They stated they brought a box with fire starter down and put it on the table at the site. When we got down to the site, there was a dead animal feet from the table. The state of decomposition shows it had been there quite a while. Due to the location of the rotting meat, and the smell there is no way the person who brought the box down didn’t notice. Additionally, the water was inaccessible. Steep embankments made it unsafe for children, something I had even messaged back and forth before booking to ensure the river access was safe. The pictures are very deceiving. After about 5 minutes, we left. Half of our party started their journey back home, while we scrambled to find a new place for our remaining 2 nights of our vacation. I left the site in tears. Thankfully we found a new place to stay, or it would have ruined the trip. For a tent site, the value of the site does not match the cost. :(

Great spot next to the river
It was really beautiful and secluded. Great location next to the river for those who want to fish, wade, or just play on the banks.

Tara and Ken kindly responded to our last-minute request, and the site was awesome. If you want to drive all the way down to the site, you’ll definitely want 4x4 and ample ground clearance. Great spot right on the Dan River, plenty of space for the three tents and kitchen that we set up. Glad we were able to stay there.
