Dry Run Creek Camp

5 sites · RVs, Tents15 acres · Blacksburg, VA

We live on 15 acres in Southwest VA! We have three campsites, one in a field to the left of our home, one in our driveway and a dispersed site to the right in 10 acres of woods. We live in a house on the property that is visible from two of the sites. The area is quiet and rural. Despite the secluded feel, we are 15 minutes from downtown Blacksburg! Our land is mostly wooded with two wet weather streams and across the street is Jefferson national forest. Within 20 minutes or less are several hikes on the Appalachian trail including Mcaffe's Knob and Dragon's tooth, a popular road biking loop, and Pandapas pond day use area with mountain biking trails and an easy hike around the pond. There is limited cell service here, though there is a free community Wifi spot about two miles away at Slushers Chapel. Be aware that there is a slight drop from the paved road to the grass parking for the camping sites but it is accessible to 2WD. Happy camping!

Beaverdam Falls

4 sites · Lodging65 acres · Covington, VA

Nestled on a private 65-acre farm in the Alleghany Highlands of Virginia, Beaverdam Falls is located on VA SR-311 (Kanawha Trail) in the Sweet Springs Valley. Nestled in the old community of Earlehurst, between Covington & Roanoke, Beaverdam Falls are an historic series of waterfalls on private property. The Falls are at the headwaters of Dunlap Creek and are the terminus for the Sweet Springs. Available for guest stays & recreation, are the Upper Falls portion. Surrounded by the verdant George Washington National Forest, the Upper Falls, displays a constant waterfall of around 40-feet in height, & decorates the final mile stretch of the Sweet Springs, both on our property. Additional beautiful cascades pepper our tract of Beaverdam Falls as well. This private tract of unparalleled Virginia countryside will simply astonish your expectations. As the source of the Falls, Sweet Springs Creek, serves as a long, unique home for trout, calcified travertine rock, chalybeate water, and ancient beaver dams (as well as active ones!). Beaverdam Falls is a rare place for the lack of stone and the centuries of beavers who have left their trace in & on our creek—and swamp, the Stick Marsh, which has an active beaver dam. Be careful! They do bite!

Savage Acres on Craig Creek

7 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents120 acres · New Castle, VA

In a remote valley, along the banks of Craig's Creek, just north of Roanoke VA, the property includes mature hardwood forest, pasture, and an 1830s log cabin where we live. We love to share this special place with visitors, and have some basic amenities for campers. The campsites are at the edge of a large pasture and just a few steps from Craig Creek and our big swimmin' hole. Totally secluded in a remote valley - no houses or roads in sight (but our cabin is a short walk through the woods if you need something), no cell service for most providers, but within a short drive of Roanoke and Blacksburg, and countless outdoor recreation opportunities.

Arcadia Sanctuary

16 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents83 acres · Buena Vista, VA

Arcadia is the name we gave to our 83-acre mountainside retreat center for Earth-Based Spirituality. It’s nestled on the south-eastern slope of 4000-foot Mount Pleasant in Central Virginia, convenient to I81. (Note, there is a town called Arcadia off I81, but that is not us. Not to confuse.) We have a mountain creek with waterfalls, towering Beech and Sycamore trees, Witch Hazels leaning over the water, trout, crayfish, snakes, salamanders, and all the rest. We have about 2000 feet of the vertical mountainside with trails to explore. (But the stage and most of the camping is down closer to creek-level.) There are more sites higher up the mountain if you like more isolated camping. More of a trek to the bathrooms/showers/freshwater. We have one of the finest private stages on the East Coast with a top-notch sound system and a natural amphitheater which is like a single pie wedge of a Stadium that has regular live performances throughout the spring, summer, and fall. Our yurt is regularly booked as a unique glamping experience. There are chickens, ducks, turkeys, and guinea fowl free-roaming. Two dogs, nine cats, and several humans are blessed to call this home.

2nd40 to 420 - The Farm

16 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents39 acres · Pamplin, VA

The Farm was originally named 2nd 4o by my parents. They planned to live the 2nd forty years of their lives together on the farm. My parents both grew up on the southside of Chicago - where having a tree in your yard meant that you had "made it". They decided to use the land to grow Christmas Trees. This did not last long :) - but the saplings my dad planted by hand are still here & maybe 70' tall! Then my husband & I bought The Farm in 2017 for the 2nd forty years of our life & my parents built their little house right here. My husband and I immediately knew that our dream was to grow a different kind of "tree", so in 2019 we were among the first group to receive our license to grow hemp. We are passionate about both the hemp and cannabis plants! In 2020 when it finally became legal to grow cannabis, we immediately added that to our garden as well and 2nd 40 to 420 was born, or shall I say planted. We currently rent out our 2 RV's 3 Yurts & primitive sites , we also offer group bookings & Canna-friendly B&B options. We plan to add septic & electric hook-ups for RV's in the near future. Come join us in Growing our Dreams! Learn more about this land: Large farm with acres for tent camping. 2 RVs on site - available for rental - able to pull in RV's420 friendly - bed & breakfast options available. Creek, walking & riding trails, in season pool. Happy to host you with a variety of options. This option is for primitive camping on site.

Riverside Campground at Seneca

3 sites · Lodging, Tents140 acres · Elliston, VA

Learn more about this land: Fall asleep to hooting owls and the gentle ripple of the river and creek that flank your campsite. Wake up with a dip in the river or a morning hike in the woods. Feel the hug of the mountains throughout your stay, while also having access to Blacksburg nearby should you need it. DIRECTIONS: Upon entry the gravel road is shared with my neighbor and it is about 1.5 miles from the entry gate to the site. You'll enter thru a gate (it may be closed, if closed please close behind you as my neighbor sometimes has cows). Go approx 1 mile the road will split...go up the hill on the right. Continue past the Hay barn another half mile. Park on the left side of the gravel road along the tree line. Another 50ft you'll see a wood foot bridge across the creek. The sites are ahead, PawPaw is first, then Bloodroot Base Camp (bell tent), and lastly Cohosh Cove is the most private. Each site has a sign as well When driving, please be respectful of the right of way. Drive slowly and respect the farm equipment. Also please do not venture onto the neighbor’s property other than entry and exit. About the property 20 minutes from Blacksburg and 35 minutes from Roanoke, our campground gives you great access to the “Triple Crown” of the Appalachian trail, consisting of McAfee Knob, Tinker Cliffs, and Dragon’s Tooth. Conquer these iconic peaks of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains for spectacular views of the surrounding wilderness. Additionally, explore Falls Ridge Nature preserve, Cascades waterfall, and Carvin’s Cove for hiking, kayaking and mountain biking. Or just stay on the campground and enjoy the hiking and swimming we offer here. Nearby in Blacksburg take advantage of the local breweries or Virginia Tech football home games. You can also find Christmas tree cutting in Floyd county, 45mins away. This property deserves to be shared with others. It is peaceful and beautiful. As your Host, I am passionate about conservation and also teaching people about the medicinal uses of our local herbs. I can lead medicinal herb walks upon request for $25 a person. I typically try to meet the campers if I can upon arrival, I am available for questions and can be hands on or off as the needs of campers suggest. I have had campers ask if I wanted to share a beverage and sit around the fire and have done so. I want to make your experience as enjoyable as possible. I love the peacefulness the property offers, and that you’re in the middle of the wilderness but also have quick access to things in town. The river campsites are my favorite part of the property. At the main cabin I have goats and chickens which hipcampers are more than welcome to greet. About the listing Pitch your tents at the campsite nestled along the side of the mountain on the banks of the North Fork of the Roanoke River. As you fall asleep, listen to the occasional hoot of an owl, howl of a coyote, and gentle ripple of the river and creek that flank the campsite. Campers will have access to a private composting toilet, fire pit, and picnic table. We offer two different campsites on the property, so note that you may see or hear other campers on the grounds during your stay. What to bring Your tent and camping equipment Potable water and/or water filtration and purification equipment Fire starting equipment if needed, assuming there is no local fire ban in place Pets are welcome During warm months, a swim suit to enjoy the river!

Muddy Creek Campground and Farm

41 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents17 acres · Copper Hill, VA

Welcome to the “Boondocks!” Muddy Creek Campground and Farm is currently a work- in-progress. The property was purchased with a multi-phase dream in mind. Our short term and long-term goals are to provide a get-away, your way. Nestled in the hills of Copper Hill, Virginia, (elevation 2600 feet, population 1758, Muddy Creek Campground and Farm is 17.5 acres of pasture and a woodland get-away that includes rolling hills, rescued livestock, micro farming, RV and tent campsites, and primitive camping glamping. While staying with us, enjoy the change of seasons on the Blue Ridge Parkway (one mile from Muddy Creek), ziplining and hiking at Buffalo Mountain, swimming, tubing, and kayaking complements of the Little River, and follow the Crooked Road music tour. Our neighbors also include wineries, breweries, paintball courses, corn mazes in the fall, horseback riding trails and one week a year at the popular July FloydFest. At Muddy Creek you choose the accommodations, activities, food, and the amenities (or the lack there of) where we believe that your experience needs to fit your needs. Sometimes that may include eating and sleeping under the stars and nothing more. We recommend that, too. Phase 1 – The Camp Side Camp sites offer RV camping, camper vans, primitive tent camping, glamping, and eventually tiny cabin camping. Maybe you’d prefer nightly “boondocking” or RV/van camping (no utilities provided). We will host tent/primitive camping (use what you bring in). Tents and sleeping bags may be rented based on availability or you may bring your own. Amenities may include fire pits, picnic tables, tents, RV and Camper Van rentals, cast iron cookware for open fire cooking, hawk watching, and woodland critter sightings. Muddy Creek Campground and Farm Highlights Raw resources: 17.5 acres of pasture, trees, fresh air, forest bathing and Mother Nature Accommodations: RV/Camper Van, primitive, and glamping camping. Location/Proximity: (Remember country miles take a little longer to travel) • 1.0 miles to the Blue Ridge Parkway -2 minutes • 28 miles to Exit 114 Interstate 81 -33 minutes • 1.5 miles to Route 221/Floyd Hwy - 3 minutes Recreation: hiking, biking, fishing, horseback riding, kayaking/tubing, paintball, golf, college football games Communities, transportation, shopping, restaurants, breweries/wineries: • 46 miles to Roanoke, VA via 81 N – 50 minutes • 38.2 miles to Roanoke, VA via 221 N – 59 minutes • 14.4 miles to Floyd, VA - 19 minutes • 17.3 miles to Virginia Tech - 27 minutes • 37.3 miles to Roanoke College - 42 minutes • 6.8 miles to Radford University -28 minutes • 1.5 miles to FloydFest - 5 minutes • 43.8 miles to Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport - 50 minutes • 46.0 miles to Amtrak – Roanoke – 53 minutes Phase 1 –The Farm Side-Spring of 2024 A portion of the property will be used for micro-farming. Our vision is to provide yearlong gardening via hoop-houses, raised beds, and old-school planting in the ground that will lead to seasonal vegetables and fruits, a hoop house for year-round gardens, classes that teach planting, cultivating, harvesting - all near hiking, biking, fishing, horseback riding and shopping. Instead, you may choose to stay on-site for rest and relaxation…less can be more! Limited rescued livestock will roam the property. Goats serve as an eco-friendly form of land maintenance and fertilizer, donkeys protect the goats, hens produce eggs, and even a couple of cows may wander because we just love cows! This will be by no means a sanctuary, but our animal residents will live out their natural lives at Muddy Creek – the compost makers. Our intention is to build and grow with purpose while being thoughtful stewards of the property, guests, community. One of the many great perks of camping is the uniqueness that each campground provides. You may note similarities, but the location and the land provide a different adventure for everyone. Camping is about experiencing and making memories. Muddy Creek is literally built from the camp site/farm ground up, merging two passions into one - farming and camping. Farm camping does not target any specific demographic, but instead provides an array of opportunities for leisure and travel (even if that travel is just one county away). Design your vacation as you wish: sleep, eat, tickle a goat's ear, or decide how much recreation or relaxation you want. All are part of the Muddy Creek Campground and Farm community experience, providing something or perhaps the want for “nothing” for everyone. Many camp sites are targeted for the high energy outdoor enthusiasts that are loved by many, but we cater to the get-out-of town, disconnect, rest, cook and eat over an open fire. Mountain or metro camper, recreation is right around the bend. Muddy Creek is affordable, accessible, and inclusive of all guests.
