Natural Bridge Station, VA · 25 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
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. Truly, there is something nearby for everyone. We'd be happy to give you recommendations of things to see and do. If you are a star gazer you won't be disappointed by our dark sky.
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. We also don't offer longterm rentals as we focus on short term camping.

Please note before booking:
Weekday Construction: We are building our future home near the center of the property. During normal business hours (generally Monday-Friday), you may occasionally hear or see construction activity in this central area. Because the property is over 235 acres, there are numerous quiet camping locations well away from the construction zone. Even during construction, only one Hipcamp reservation is accepted at a time, so your group continues to enjoy exclusive access to the property.
Occasionally, foresters, environmental specialists, or USDA/Virginia Department of Forestry personnel may visit to monitor the forest or ongoing conservation projects.
Visible wildlife trail cameras are used solely to monitor wildlife and property conditions—they are never hidden and are not intended for guest surveillance.

Escape the noise and immerse yourself in nature on a private 32-acre off-grid sanctuary. Nestled directly on a beautiful creek and surrounded by three different national forests, this is the perfect basecamp for your next adventure or a peaceful retreat to recharge with your loyal companion since we are pet-friendly.
This isn't a crowded campground; it's your land to explore. Fall asleep to the sound of a gentle creek, wake up to crisp mountain air, and spend your days hiking, fishing, or simply relaxing by the fire. With direct access to thousands of acres of public land, the possibilities are endless. Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway in your tent or a longer stay in your self-contained RV, this slice of paradise offers the solitude and connection to the wild you've been searching for.
The Space: Your campsite ensures total privacy and a true sense of seclusion. You park at the top of an embankment and walk down about a 10 foot decline. A capable 4 x 4 overland rig can drive down. Our home is situated on the far end of the property with its own separate entrance, while you’ll have your own driveway and gated entrance.
We are close enough that if you need a cup of sugar or a telephone, we’re here for you—but we won’t intervene in your stay unless invited to, such as for a live guitar singalong by the fireside ;-) If you stay up late howling at the moon, or if your dog barks at wildlife late at night, you’re far enough away that we won’t be bothered.
The property fronts a serene creek with truly pristine water. Due to the remoteness of the area, there is no industry or population density to pollute it. It’s perfect for cooling off on a warm day, trying your luck at fishing, or simply enjoying the tranquil sounds of flowing water.
There are multiple large, semi-level areas perfect for setting up tents or parking self-contained RVs, giving you plenty of room to spread out and make yourself at home. We flattened out a creekside 9x10’ tent site.
This is a true off-grid experience. Come prepared to disconnect, as there is no phone service, but we have installed WiFi. Enjoy the stars free from city light pollution.

The Lakeside Mountain Stream site is very secluded, nestled between the mountains and the lake. It overlooks our 5-acre lake with mountain views in the background. It's on the opposite side of the lake from the Cedar Sites. This site has its own dock and is just a short walk down a mowed trail to a beautiful section of Passage Creek. An additional seasonal mountain stream can cascade behind the site and run under it to feed the lake when the conditions are right. It's a delicate site, so the accommodations and group size is strictly limited.
Check out the reviews and extensive gallery for many options of this amazing property!
Locally, the North end of Fort Valley offers many great hiking trails, trout fishing, rock climbing, horseback riding, and the Elizabeth Furnace day-use park. Taskers Gap OHV/ATV park is a short drive south, and the valley is sandwiched between both forks of the Shenandoah River for those looking to paddle.

Came up for a solo camp out on the 4th of July. You have the whole mountain side to yourself. The view is incredible. Plenty of space for a tent, canopy, vehicle, and more. It was definitely one of the best camping experiences I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely be back. 4WD with clearance REQUIRED. I would recommend a tarp and/or canopy if it’s sunny. You will be exposed to sunlight in the open. Good thing is you don’t have any tall trees surrounding the campsite to worry about. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💯💯💯

Really fun place for my first hip camp! I stayed with my 5 year old for four nights.
The creek that runs through the property is a good way to cool off on a summer day. And the rowboats to take out on the lake are nice as well. The property itself is very quiet and rural.
There's lots of stuff to do in the surrounding area. The Fireball Arcade in Front Royal was a hit with my kid, and I loved the Virginia Beer Museum next door. And of course you can't skip Shenandoah Valley National Park and Skyline Drive.
Overall a nice alternative to campgrounds where you're packed right next to someone else. Strongly recommend if you're looking to camp in the area.

We stayed here for two days in our trailer while hiking in Shenandoah national Park. It was a quiet campsite right next to the creek. Levi was very friendly and gave us information about local places to visit. We would definitely book again if ever in the area again. 100% would recommend!

This is an excellent, secluded campsite. Private but responsive hosts. You have to pack everything in/out including trash-no big deal but good to know in advance.

Enjoyed our stay. We were looking for somewhere close to Natural Bridge and Devils Marble Yard. Can’t really beat the exact middle. Facilities were clean as expected. Cabin was as described. Recommended to our friends already.

Such a nice little retreat on a creek in Floyd. Super laid back, with a nice bathroom/shower. Cool stage for music, campfire space, and a great host! Sly was very accommodating and helpful parking my "new-to-me" pop up. We will 100% be back to visit very soon!

We loved staying at Cedar Grove 2! There was plenty of space to spread out and enjoy camping for our 3-night stay. Firewood was available to purchase when we ran out, which was a nice convenience. The bathroom was close by and had fresh water for washing up, and the lake was beautiful—both to be on and to walk alongside. Can’t wait for our next visit; we’re already planning to bring more friends along.

Absolutely lovely location and owner, we will definitely be back again when the flower fields bloom! We were staying in site 5 and it was very spacious. I would definitely recommend the creek side sites. The bathroom and shower were also very clean! The hiking trail was very clearly marked so no fear of getting lost. The benches around the pond were also lovely to just sit and chat while the sun sets! Overall would highly recommend this spot 🌞

we loved our short stay, despite the rain. It’s a very short walk of a few minutes to the river and suspension bridge. The campsite is very large and private.
