Expect sites with toilets, showers, and fire rings—essentials after a long day on the rock. Average prices hover around $60 a night, but you can snag a spot for as low as $12. You’ll find campgrounds tucked along forest edges and within reach of bouldering routes, plus easy access to hiking trails, swimming holes, and fishing streams. Top picks include Bears Den Campground (467 reviews), a favorite for its direct trail access and epic sunsets; Hawkwood Farm (208 reviews), known for quiet woods and friendly hosts; and Catoctin Quaker Camp (40 reviews), where you can camp under tall trees and hit the crags early. If you’re here to climb, Chevy Chase campsites keep you close to the action—and give you plenty to do when you’re off the wall.

We spent two nights at #3. It is very well situated in regards to the trail and house. We forgot a pot for coffee and were able to borrow from the house, which we are grateful for. We went 5 min down the road into Bluemont for a visit to the general store and community playground. Great woods, wonderful campfire, kids (6 & 8) had a blast!

These sites are located at the Bear's Den Center along the AT in Virginia. Super cool location, and you can walk to a large brewery/restaurant within 15 minutes. I'd definitely camp here again. Fair warning: while the tent sites are quite large, they are all arranged in a circle. If any of the sites are rambunctious, you will hear it. Didn't bother, but don't come here expecting to be alone.

Fantastic spot for camping. Very remote. You can see so many stars at night.

Weekend Trip to Bears Den Campground
Beautiful site. Close enough to other campers that it doesn’t feel secluded, but far enough that it still feels private. Only 1 bucket of wood was included, which wasn’t enough. $9 felt steep for more. Overall, great experience. Great location. Bit pricier than similar places.
