Formerly Meadow Creek Campground, this beautiful piece of land has two camping spots and a tent spot overlooking a meandering tributary of the Little River called Meadow Creek. Camper sites have water and electric hookup, one with sewer. Tent sites are primitive, but guests can access water and electricity at the picnic shelter. A portable outhouse is nearby. Picnic table provided in each spot. Location is central to Radford, Floyd and Christiansburg. Cell service is spotty. It's a great place to unplug!

RV site across the street from the New River. Cozy and partially private spot. The site is dry for now, as I’m working to restore power. I can refill your water supply before you park, but there is currently no direct water hookup at the site.

4 nights at Buttermilk Bluff

We thoroughly enjoyed this campsite! The solitude and serene views were truly unmatched. We could see for miles, and the sunsets were amazing. We traveled with two young kids who loved exploring the nearby creek. The host was wonderful—friendly, attentive, and made sure all of our needs were met. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Buttermilk Bluff

The pictures don’t do the view justice at this place. Perfectly isolated, yet close enough to local amenities to go get something if necessary. The sights and sounds of the area are amazing! We saw deer, wild turkeys, a beaver, and plenty of friendly cows. With minimal light pollution, the night sky was breathtaking. Katie was more patient and accommodating than we deserved. We enjoyed campfires both nights and utilized the well placed utility hookups for our camper. I definitely plan to return and visit some of the local attractions that we learned about and weren’t able to fit into this trip.

Weekend Trip to Buttermilk Bluff

My friend & I loved camping at Katie’s site. Her land is so beautiful with a great view of the Peaks of Otter. There were really easy directions to get to the property & so helpful to be provided firewood. Also she was very kind to give us a little gift with s’mores supplies, a map of their property & recommendations of things to do. Also my dog (& my friend) loved watching the cows.

Weekend Trip to JILLBILLY'S

We loved our peaceful quiet 2 night stay. The host Mike was just up the hill and was very friendly and helpful in providing trail maps and plenty of firewood during our stay. Even had a special treat ... Also saw a bald eagle roosting in one of the tall trees on the property for almost an hour and the morning before we left. It was real nice. Would definitely go again

Weekend Trip to Meadow Creek In Dry Valley

We had a great stay at Dry Creek. We gotta into our site just before dark and were given a quick tour, offered water and lighting to make our setup smoother. It was greatly appreciated. We parked our van at one of the sites and found it quite easy to locate a level surface. When we woke up in the morning we saw a family of 5 or 6 deer down by the creek. The location is beautiful and the hospitality warm.

We had an amazing time camping at Judy & Wendy's land. The property is so beautiful, with mowed green grass, bird songs galore and a gorgeous creek. The porta-potty was clean with no smell. We used the campsite as our jumping off point for trips to Cascade Falls, Blacksburg, Mountain Lake Wilderness, and the New River Trail State Park. Judy was the most welcoming and helpful host. We look forward to coming back!

What a beautiful spot, with a lovely green field and a whispering creek. It took some effort to level the camper, but once it was in place, we were in great shape. The directions were clear and helped us arrive in the evening without incident.

This was our first time using hip camp to book a campsite. The road coming in to get to this property is a beautiful twisty windy country Road that gives you the beginning of the sense of being in the beautiful countryside. Once on the property, the open space and the way the property is kept is absolutely beautiful. The sites offer plenty of space between any other campers. The host even provided coffee at the gazebo/pavilion in the morning. We absolutely love our stay. Enjoyed it and will almost definitely be back.
