Pretty cool spot. There were a few hammock camping sites, but mostly tent so plan accordingly. The campground folks who run this property were kind and hosted a quiet and peaceful experience.

This is a safe and clean area for tent camping. The property is over 50 acres, so other campers are usually not too close unless you choose to set up near them. During the fall, the river was quite shallow, and there was a sign indicating that fishing isn’t allowed. The nearest grocery store is about 9.5 miles away, so plan ahead for supplies. There are no showers, electricity, or running water on-site, but portable toilets are available. The management is easy to reach by phone and very responsive.

The campground itself is situated right on the river with a very thoughtful set of steps leading down to a beachy area. Plenty of space to set up tents and have designated areas for games, cooking, etc.
The host was super welcoming and brought a load of firewood out to us to make sure we had a comfortable stay. We will absolutely be coming back.

I surprised my husband and two dogs with a camping, canoeing, and kayaking trip. Our first overnight stop was at the Riverside Retreat. At first, the area seemed very underdeveloped with rough and bumpy roads. I was especially worried that my smaller SUV and new trailer hauling all the gear wouldn't make it since the way was narrow. We found the check-in site at Rappahannock Camp Grounds very easily, and overall had no issues with the roads. It was already getting dark, but thankfully, it was easy to follow the verbal instructions to get to the Hipcamp site. Honestly, if you don't mind feeling a little "lost" then the reward at the end is SO worth it. After going down the dirt road as far as you can, there's open areas next to some fields and a shallow river with perfectly crystal clear water and river rocks all along the bottom. There are two access points to the river. One immediately when you pull up to the fields and one further hidden all the way to the left side of the area under the trees. I loved that you could choose to either camp under the open stars or in a forested patch. We ended up next to the field where the ground was flat and setup. There were metal fire rings provided if you wanted to have a campfire, and a porta potty on either end of the camping space. The dogs had such a great time playing in the shallow water and I loved getting to hear the sound of the river flowing over the rocks. Even with other families there, it still felt private. We'll be back!

I wanted somewhere secluded to unplug and this place delivered! I selected a spot in the woods and it was heaven; the property was well maintained with mowing and clearing, and the amount of noise was minimal despite other campers being on site. There were also multiple porter John’s available for use and a dumpster at the entrance for convenience. Easy river access, walkable paths, and all the nighttime sounds. It’s a must visit.

If you’re looking for a primitive camping site away from everyone and everything, this is the place to go! We ended up choosing an edge of the woods/field spot, plenty of wood for a fire, very quiet, with easygoing hosts. Would definitely stay again!

Loved the primitive campsite on the river. Easy check-in at the campground, and Erik and crew are very helpful for directions to the sites, instructions, and even jump your car if it comes to that (again, huge thank you!).
Lots of room to setup camp. Level ground with good overhead for tents (we had a big one in the treeline and it fit well), enough space to keep away from the fire ring too. Had easy access to the water and lots of solitude. We had mostly shallow waters making it easy for my kids and I trek up and downstream to explore. Definitely planning for our next visit.

It was what I needed to break up a long drive. Flat, soft, level grass. Multiple reasonable places to pitch a tent. Host left plenty of firewood and a fire log which was so nice! Road noise was a bit loud and there was a road race of sorts around 2am but that’s to no fault of the host.

I really enjoyed my stay at this campsite. The area was very clean and well-maintained, and the host was friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. I especially loved spending time fishing — the spot is peaceful and relaxing, perfect for unwinding outdoors.
The only downside was noticing that quite a few trees have been cut down since my last visit. It’s still a beautiful place, but it doesn’t feel quite as shaded or natural as before. Overall, though, it remains a great location for camping, relaxing, and enjoying nature. I’d definitely come back again.

It was such a beautiful location right on the river. Definitely not for anything lower than a SUV. We will be back!

The hosts at Redd Cabbage Farm were delightful. We introduced them to Mountain pies and in turn we learned about the benefits of beauty berry and some other natural insect repellents. Highly recommend if you are in the Richmond area.

Stewart’s Corner is great location, close to Mineral, Louisa, and Spotsylvania. Mary, the host was great with communication and the treats that were left made the stay even better. If you have your pets with you, the fenced in yard gives them PLENTY of space to run off excess energy.
When we come back through to Virginia, we hope there is availability!

My sister and I had a blast staying here. Driveway was super easy, Dwane already had a tent set up, which was really nice for us since we got there pretty late in the evening. We had everything we needed. Highly recommend!
