Weekend Trip to Swedish Lilac Campground & Events

I absolutely loved this site. Well manicured. Clean and nice shower house. The rushing of the river will lull you to sleep. It’s the first campsite that I’ve been to that has business class fiber WiFi. Speed test showed 200gb down and 200gb up. Teams calls were no issue. The owners are very responsive to your questions. They take the time to check on you to see if you need anything. I will be making this place a regular visit. This is a must stop for a peaceful and beautiful location to relax.

Weekend Trip to Swedish Lilac Campground & Events

Nice quiet pretty campground with utility hookups for RVs. Well spaced sites both open or with trees surrounding, next to a small river. Free firewood! Wifi access at your site! Was towing a 17' trailer, the site I took I could swing around the open grass as if a pull through, very easy to get set up, and site was level. Owners were helpful and accommodating, clean bathrooms and showers, fairly close to town and local restaurants. Some other campers had families and their kids could feed and pet owner's baby goats. Overall great stop on the way up Rt 81.

Weekend Trip to Swedish Lilac Campground & Events

We loved our tent camping experience at Swedish! Valerie and Fritz were incredibly kind and welcoming. The kids had a great time and especially enjoyed getting to feed the baby goat—it was a highlight for them. The bathrooms and washrooms were spotless and well-maintained. Overall, it was a wonderful stay for the whole family.

1 night at Swedish Lilac Campground & Events

Wonderful host! Wonderful campsites, lots of space scenic, and quiet. Will definitely stay there again!

1 night at Camp Karma

Elizabeth is communicative and attentive. It can get cold at night, but the cabin did the work for me. I would come back next time I’m driving around the area.

Weekend Trip to Arcadia Sanctuary

We enjoyed our stay so much, we started planning our next trip before we even left. We had lots of privacy, the land was beautiful, the bathrooms were clean, the creek was magical…I could go on and on. We loved every minute and will definitely be back soon!

3 nights at Arcadia Sanctuary

This place is really peaceful and magical. Fran and her staff are lovely. Make sure you get the breakfast!

3 nights at Arcadia Sanctuary

Second time staying here. Hope I can stay again in the future. Great place. Great location for access to hiking trails. Definitely get the breakfast! Amazing!!! Great host.

Weekend Trip to 2nd40 to 420 - The Farm

Amy and Phillip were amazing hosts! Their land is a gem to camp on and their hospitality is beyond phenomenal. We enjoy ourselves very much. The night sky was completely covered in stars.

Weekend Trip to 2nd40 to 420 - The Farm

Quiet, clean, and peaceful spot! Perfect for a relaxing getaway—great scenery and friendly vibes. Would definitely come back! Dogs loved it!

1 night at Private Farm Minutes to Cville

Great place for families. Each site is secluded and has plenty of space. Loved the lake, kayaking, rope-swing. Showers lovely and warm. We had a happy time here

Weekend Trip to 12 Gates Farms

Very quiet. Peaceful and safe. Watch out for deer on the way in. Very considerate hosts.

4 nights at Dices Spring Farm Camp & Views

We were at campsite #2 and stayed for several days, it was great - we were so happy we chose this spot! Beautiful view, very private campsite, spacious, well kept! There was plenty of room for our two tents, we could have easily set up another one with the space. The only thing to note is that the drive up the hill to the campsite was rough for my little Toyota Corolla, if you have a low sitting car you’re going to bottom out, but with some maneuvering and strategy we figured out how to go up and down without major impact & also limited our times coming and going from the site. Overall a great place to camp and close to many breweries, wineries, outdoor adventures, etc. highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Peaceful Meadows Farm

What a great camp ground! Michelle and Wendell are amazing hosts! They have everything you need. Well, except ice. There is a small store down the road so that wasn't a problem. Check it out!

Weekend Trip to Hawthorn Hollar

Had a wonderful weekend with the family and dogs here. There were plenty of trails to walk (the gnome trail was a highlight) that are well-maintained. The pond on site was perfect for easy fishing with an option to take out the canoe. And Moon and Julie were both such friendly and generous hosts! The cabin is placed on a spacious plot of land away from the other two sites, with plenty of shade. The futon was surprisingly comfortable. Lots of open fields too. In short, it was the perfect getaway.

Beautiful views surround the property and only minutes from the city!

1 night at Private Farm Minutes to Cville

My husband and I really enjoyed camping here! Very private lot and super cool property. We loved seeing all the horses and enjoyed walking around the property. Very close to town! Only around 8 minutes away from town, so super convenient. Definitely recommend staying here. It was very quiet and felt safe.

Weekend Trip to Camp Cove Creek

The site was very nice and well taken care of. The view was amazing. John and his family was super nice. So peaceful and only a short ride to Charlottesville and Blue Ridge. We enjoyed our stay very much and would absolutely come back!!

Weekend Trip to Thunder BRidge

We had a great time at Thunder Bridge! The campsite had plenty of room for our two tents, and spacing between other campsites was good for privacy. Adam was a great host who was very helpful and even delivered a second bundle of wood to the camp site for us. There is lots to do in the surrounding area and we would enjoy returning in the future!

Weekend Trip to Thunder BRidge

We tent camped at Woodpecker 4, and it was fantastic. I've camped at several public and private campgrounds in that area and this has been by far the best. The amenities were great, showers were hot, bathrooms were clean, wifi was good to check the weather and maps, the creek was a great feature to explore for the kids, there were minimal bugs and the best part, the campsites were the farthest away from each other I have been to at a campground. Adam was highly responsive and very accommodating. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Thunder BRidge

Great spot in a beautiful area! The campsite was clean and ready for us upon arrival and the bathhouse/ rec hall were a great reminder of summer camp. Highly recommend pre-ordering firewood onsite; was a good amount for the price and much easier not having to haul it to camp.

Twin Poplar Farm

3 sites · Tents65 acres · Amherst, VA

The Farm is located on 65 private acres of Woods and Field on the Tye River. This is a place for people who love nature and want to be out in it. We have chosen to prioritize conservation over ease of access, so though the sites are all walk in only [or paddle in!] this means you will camp on the grass or leaves not the gravel of a parking lot. There are only 3 sites on the land so you can soak up nature without noisy neighbors. "Twin Poplar" refers to the Tulip Poplar's extraordinary tenacity, after being cut down, like the Phoenix who returns to life after death, a Poplar will often regrow as two "twin" trunks. A chance for a new life and growth! For more follow us on Instagram @TwinPoplarFarm

Private Farm Minutes to Cville

7 sites · RVs, Tents55 acres · Charlottesville, VA

This was a 55-acre farm, split in half to accommodate a bypass through Charlottesville, so the previous owners had to give up half the land, and actually moved the house down to the other half of the property! They had to build a land bridge to get to the new home site, so they turned the bridge into a dam and created a beautiful large swimming pond, complete with beach and gazebo. My wife Stephanie and I bought the property in early 2017 and have turned it into a private horse farm, adding pastures, a riding ring, and 6-stall barn. There are ~21 horses who live on the property. The property is unique in that you can hardly see another house from anywhere on the property and yet we are only 2 miles from Barracks Rd. Shopping Center, and 4 miles from the University of Virginia.

Situated at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains and bordering the Jefferson National Forest, Thunder BRidge has scenic, large, private tent sites and cabins in the woods for those who want to experience camping at its finest. Many of the sites border Elk Creek. Our RV sites are large, flat and at the edge of the forest in a well kept open green space. Our 100 acres was originally a camp built by the Civilian Conservation Corp in the "30s and early '40s, then a boys' juvenile detention center and Big Brothers'/Big Sisters' camp, which closed in 2009. The tent sites and cabins are in the forest, away from the buildings out front, but you're free to walk around and check out the historic site. Most of the buildings out front are artist studios (currently for 16 artists). We like to share the camp with others and watch it come back to life. All within a short driving distance are the Natural Bridge, wineries, breweries, Natural Bridge Zoo, Safari Park, Dinosaur Kingdom, Appalachian Trail, Blue Ridge Parkway, James River, historic Lexington, Devil's Marbleyard, Glenwood Horse Trail, swimming holes, etc. We have river access 2 miles up the road if you'd like to fish or put your kayak or canoe in.

We want to share our property with those who want to stay for more than one night, so we do not accept inquiries of single night stays.

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.

12 Gates Farms

11 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents10 acres · Montvale, VA

This property was once a 300 acre plus tobacco farm. The original log cabin was built in the 1850s and now serves as our dining room. The front portion of the house was completed in April of 1861 and the back in the early 1900s. We have plans to eventually turn it into a working farm which produces tinctures, salves and extracts of various native plants including hemp. Learn more about this land: Heavily wooded mountain side with flowing creek. Easy access (walking distance) to Jefferson National Forest, National Forest horse trail and the Blue Ridge Parkway. (Note: You cannot drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway as the path is an old forest road which has been gated, but you can walk up to it.) We also have a tree house which has AC, heat and electrical connection. Only site 4 is next to the brook. However, the site positions are for the purposes of the listing only. You may camp anywhere on the property. There is plenty of frontage on the creek and several tents can go up there. The toilets at the treehouse and the bus are flushing, camping toilets with sinks. To find us easily, use what3words.com and enter the words wished.wobbles.shelves. That square is our driveway. The large white square to the right of it is our house.

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. There are two bridges that cross Thrashers Creek to get to Arcadia. The first is not suitable for large vehicles and trailers. The second bridge is our recommended entry way. Be aware we live on side of Mount pleasant and the roads on site are graveled and somewhat windy.

Field of Dreams Creek Camping

1 site · Tent13 acres · Concord, VA

All of the land on the gravel road in which we live was at one time a large operating farm. The original farmhouse is still present at the end of the gravel road. In recent years the farm land was sub divided. My husband Jacob and I purchased this piece of property 8 years ago. We absolutely love it here and this land is our own slice of paradise. We have 13 acres of private seclusion with a quiet and peaceful creek spot for camping on the back side of our property. We love having a place where we feel we can be away from it all! Also at the same time we are only a short drive away from downtown Lynchburg as well as quick access to route 460. We enjoy that we can get on the river quickly and we frequently take advantage of the beauty of kayaking the James River. Together Jacob and I find tranquility while camping and exploring new places. We are excited to share our slice of heaven with you and meet people who share our love for the great outdoors. :)
