Beautiful spot! Great host. Spot #1 is the closest to the pond and I would say is the best spot. No cell service on Verizon, AT&T or T-Mobile, but they offer free Wifi at the store/check-in area which is a short walk if you need connectivity. Wifi will not service the RV sites though. 10/10 stars!! Wish we could have stayed longer!

Mountain camping
Hidden Jewel in the mountains. Private spacious sites with plenty to do and see. Wish we could've spent more time to enjoy it all. We will be back.

Breathtaking views
Nanette has the prettiest piece of property I’ve ever seen… absolutely gorgeous little cove surrounded by fishing ponds and mountains!

Got my 440 acres worth!
Blue Ridge Ranch is a combination of charm and adventure. Nanette and her staff were extremely welcoming and helpful - a contagion that resulted in friendly waves and conversations with staff and campers alike throughout my stay.
I camped with my two dogs and took full advantage of hiking trails, swimming in the crystal clear creeks, and taking pics with incredible scenery, farm animals, waterfalls, and even "Big Betty" (hopefully got the monster military vehicle's name right). I also used my Jeep to drive the grounds and adjoining single lane dirt road beyond the camp on Mt. Zion Rd. (Sometimes a bit scary, but also very scenic).
Definitely an off-grid experience with almost no cell phone service and remote location (although there was decent wifi to check in on the world when I wanted to). I camped in a slide-in truck camper and was therefore tethered to an electrical cord at a RV site, but there are many tent options including some really remote locations.
I didn't research the supported charities or farm work, but that just adds to the charm.
I continue to score big with my HipCamp selections and Blue Ridge Ranch is no exception. This is immediately a favorite that I hope to visit again

Peaceful retreat
My husband and I had a wonderful time at the ranch. It’s peaceful and quiet and so much to explore. We didn’t have time to do it all. The amenities (camp store) are perfect. Just what you need if you forget something. But most of all it was a pleasure to meet the owners. They are super nice and accommodating. We can’t wait to return with more time for everything!
