City Camp on Reedy Creek

Learn more about this land:

Come take a load off at this forested Richmond retreat overlooking Reedy Creek. Set up a tent, car camp, or bring your small trailer&nbsp;to one of two sites on a unique property backed up to 20+ acres of woods. Imagine a hidden gem where you can relax to the sounds of rushing water and chirping birds, but can walk or bike to coffee shops, breweries, restaurants, parks or the river. If you are coming into Richmond for a Brown's Island event we are a five minute Uber to an access point using the Potterfield walking bridge (it's a beautiful walk across the James River to the island).

Each campsite includes 3 level spots to pitch tents (see dimensions below), and a connected space to park one car, van or small trailer. The large parking space can be used as a fourth tent footprint if needed. There are additional parking spaces.  Each site has a fire pit (with firewood on site), a grate to grill over the fire,&nbsp;a picnic table, and a hammock. There is a shared outbuilding with a composting toilet, hand washing sink, outdoor shower (solar warmed),&nbsp;and space to change privately.&nbsp;

Campsite W ~&nbsp;

Tent footprints:  1) 10' x 12'

                             2) 10' x 13'

                             3) 9' x 10'

**Pricing is based on groups of up to four adults or two adults with children.  

For groups of five to seven adults there is an additional charge of $10 person per day.

For groups of eight or more we suggest you reserve both sites and have the entire camp to yourselves. 

Campsites W and E&nbsp;are about 80' apart. Both are around 100' to the creek. The spots&nbsp;can accommodate a total length (towing vehicle plus trailer) of up to 35 ft.

There is an outdoor spigot with potable water and  hoses for clean up. The woodlands and creek adjacent to the campsites have trails that are accessible to the public. You and your furry friends are welcome to use these paths, but know that others may be using them too.

Richmond has so much to offer and we are just a hop, skip, and a jump to many wonderful attractions - kayak or sunbathe on the James River, walk or bike on trails around the city, rock climb, dine, imbibe.

PLEASE NOTE*&nbsp;These sites are on a private property with a house that is visible to campers, but we give our guests complete privacy and don't plan to interact unless you need something from us. While you are on a 2 acre property backed up to a 20 acre&nbsp;wooded area, we are still in the middle of the city and you will hear city sounds.

This is a safe space. We do not discriminate based on anything that makes you...you.

Site W includes 2 leveled tent spaces, a picnic table, an extra table and chairs, a fire pit, and a hammock!

~ Campsite E (2) ~

Tent footprint: 15'x16'

      Check-ins on weekdays are dependent on my work schedule.  If this is your first time at Billyville, I need to be on property to guide you into your site.  Please reach out before your stay so we can coordinate.  If I am off on that day, check-in is after 1pm.  If I am working, it will be after 5pm and occasionally after 7.  I am currently testing out some procedures to allow self check-in.  We'll see how that pans out. 
    Anyway, to get to Billyville:
    Turn onto Bells Lane. (Dirt Road).  You'll see a white fence on your left down the lane about .2 miles.  Just after the fence, you'll see a red sign at the beginning of a rope fence.  Turn off Bells Lane just after the sign and follow the fence, keeping it on you left.

One of our favorite games is Jenga, so when we saw jumbo jenga, we had to play a couple of rounds!! 

With so many acres of land, it was easy to walk one way and find a trail to head down to explore.  The weather was immaculate and we even found a nice stream to check out. 

Marvin set up this quaint area in the woods, away from the cabin for guests to enjoy some solitude and shade.  We had fun playing checkers and hanging out in the trees. 

This is one of Marvin's camp sites tucked into the woods! The perfect set up with a firepit to enjoy. 

I spent my morning snuggled up in a blanket with a book at one of the many fire pits on site.  It was so peaceful outside!

Sunset was incredible.  I also woke up for sunrise and it was a gorgeous sight to see over the acres of land with no obstructions. 

Our wonderful host, Marvin - he built everything on this property by himself! He was so kind and welcoming during our stay. We definitely want to come back!

Loved these signs when we got on property - such a sweet touch!

This was the view I had from the bench-swing in front of the tiny cabin. All ready to enjoy a warm fire on cold night - clear skies galore and beautiful stars later that evening!

Carolzy’s Secret Gardens

Twenty plus years ago, there was an ad in the paper listing ten acres for sale in Old Church. It has always been a special place and so the adventure began... We built the house and ever since, have been adding gardens, paths, trails, benches, swings and generally giving back the love to the land for the pleasure it has provided. As a result, there is wildlife and birds galore. Hummingbirds will delight you as will the tree frogs and lizard frogs at the frog pond canoe. Wander down the path to our first vegetable garden location which is now a prime spot for pitching a tent or just hanging out and watching for deer, turkeys, or turtles. Depending on the season, you can enjoy blooming azaleas, coneflowers, crepe myrtles or zinnias. This is a super woodland that will give you every opportunity to relax and wonder at the beauty of nature. The RV site is close to the house and we will be right here should you need us.

Sharp's Island

NEW IN 2025: There is a beautiful cabin for guests to use. Sleeps 5 easily. Also new is the outdoor kitchen and bar. Check out @sharpsislandrva on Insta to see pics!

NOTE: The parking situation has changed due to construction! The parking information in the pictures is not correct (but Hipcamp won't let me delete them). Contact Andy at 804-212-6639 for parking instructions. There is no bridge to Sharp's Island, but we can rent you a canoe or kayak. It's super easy.

Sharp's Island is so named because the Sharp family of Richmond owned it as far back as the 1850s. The old brick foundation you see in the pictures is all that remains of a house that was built on the island in 1895 and stood for 75 years! We consider ourselves stewards of an amazing historic, ecological, geologic, and recreational asset, and we would love to have you add your story to this island's long history! 

Learn more about this land:

One-of-a-kind really only begins to describe 1-acre Sharp's Island! For starters, this is the only legal camping option in the city of Richmond. You read that correctly. This is your own private island, and it's right in the heart of downtown RVA! The Piedmont meets the Coastal Plain right here at Sharp's Island. That makes for amazing fishing, especially during the spring shad and striper runs.&nbsp;

Some other incredible things about camping at Sharp's Island: You can motor up to it from Ancarrow's Landing, canoe over from the trail just below Mayo Bridge, or make this the destination for your downriver raft/kayak trip; at summer river levels there are oodles of great swimming holes along the banks; fire pit ready and waiting for you. And lots more!
