These primitive campsites are on the bank of The Little River in gorgeous Floyd County Virginia. There are two sites on the east bank of the river and one site on the west bank. One site has electric hookup and fresh water available from the well. Bring your kayak, canoe or tube to spend the day floating. The night sky is brilliant by the river because there is no ambient light to reduce visibility. The quaint Town of Floyd is just 7 miles away. The Floyd Fest site is 20 miles away. Come enjoy the peace and quiet by the river, and the beauty of nature, while still being close enough to enjoy the great music, local arts and crafts, and restaurants Floyd County has to offer.

The views are just beautiful! Finding the site was easy thanks to the yellow signs, and Hookups went smoothly. I would have loved to stay longer but Old Man Winter decided to make a brutal showing and I didn’t want to run out of propane. I will definitely go back so that I can take advantage of the area trails.

Gorgeous spot right on the river, plenty of space and some big musky off the dock. Trains were really cool and the cooking setup was perfect for anything we forgot. 9.5/10 would recommend

Another fantastic stay! This was our second time staying here. Easy to park the camper with the path around the property, a clean pit toilet, and the lullaby of the creek nearby.

This campsite is amazing! Had a great two nights here with some buddies. The dwelling is a great convenience and our host provided a lot of basics which were helpful if we forgot something.

We accidentally went past the campground (it’s well marked and the location pin was perfect) but were treated with seeing deer cross the creek so that was a bonus. It’s close to the road but at night there’s little to no traffic and we didn’t really hear much going by. Very peaceful and it sounds like it’s going to have some nice additions in the future.

The campsite is incredible! It has a great table and TWO charcoal grills!!! The fire pit is fabulous, the grate swivels instead of flips so it’s really easy to cook food! The dock was so fun to enjoy and we can’t wait to come back in the spring when it’s warmer!!

Loved our Yurt. The beautiful eclectic decorations let us discover something new every time we looked around. The amazing view from the living room as the sun came up got our day off to a great start.

I wish we could’ve stayed longer! We were running behind schedule and arrived after dark, then had to leave before sunrise, so we didn’t get to take in the views. But the signs and string lights guiding us into the campground were such a welcoming sight after a long day on the road and pulling in so late. We’ll definitely be back to enjoy the campground properly!

Such a nice place well maintained very clean and very close to a lot of interesting towns, shops, and parks. Jodee was very friendly and helpful. Not a difficult drive very close to the interstate. Ciro’s pizza is great.
