Description

Branch Pond primitive tent camping is open-year round, offering you unparalled access to the wonders of James River State Park. Relax among the whispering meadows, and lose yourself in the forest on over 15 miles of hiking, biking, and horse riding trails. Take advantage of the full service canoe livery, open seasonally, to explore the river by boat, or take a walk along the three miles of riverfront by foot. Either way, the view is great.

Camped here for one night ahead of the James River Rundown. The riverside campsites were great, with soft grass, picnic tables, and close proximity to the water. I hope to get back soon!
