With 15 campsites, business class WIFI, over 1,000 feet of river frontage, Swedish Lilac Campground is the perfect getaway to reconnect with nature and relax with loved ones. Campsites accommodate RVs and tents with access to bath house, pavilion, dump station, and picnic areas, and is only a 20-minute drive to beautiful historic Lexington Virginia. Hiking, fishing, swimming, dining, and shopping a short distance away which means there is something for everyone at Swedish Lilac Campground. Enjoy being next to the river with the sound and energy of the rushing water. Beyond the river is the railroad track. The train runs sporadically throughout the day and night which adds a rhythmic clatter of times past. Some campers are annoyed while others view this as a plus while others don't even notice the noise from the trains. The riverside sites have a 4 to 6 foot drop to the river which may not be suitable for small children.
Remote workers welcome! Fiber optic internet with Wi-Fi access points that cover the entire campground.

Camp Cove Creek is located in rural Faber, Virginia which is 20 minutes from Charlottesville in beautiful Nelson County. In addition to the many natural features like the Blue Ridge Parkway, Appalachian Trail and the James River, Nelson is home to Wintergreen Resort and Oakridge Estate and hosts events such as the Lok'n Festival, Camp Jeep, and Overland Expo.
Camp Cove Creek was part of my grandparent's Waveland Farm. Originally situated on over 600 acres, the brick antebellum house across the hill was used as a hospital in the Civil War. The camp used to be a horse and cattle farm as well as a flea market and airport with grass airstrip when my mom owned the land. Our vegetable garden was by the swimming hole. The airstrip still maintained as such in order to offer aviation-accessible camping. It is s the future home of Faber Christmas tree farm and features several notable antique vehicles rusting in peace. Some models are of the same make and model featured on TV and film.
Camp Cove Creek is easily accessible via Rt 29 and Rt 6 east (Irish Road). Our property sits at the confluence of Bear and Cove Creeks where wading/hiking/tubing is permitted and encouraged (with water shoes). We are continually trying to improve the site by removing old barbed wire, poison ivy, roadside trash, and invasive plant species in addition to planting Christmas Trees, raising 3 kids, and working 2 full time jobs so please forgive our works in progress!
This is your 30-acre camping playground! Licensed off-road vehicles, ADV and Dual-sport motorcycles, horses, personal electric vehicles and EVEN PRIVATE PLANES are welcomed! Camp anywhere along it or the creeks bordering it. We encourage walking the route first as it has intentionally been left primitive to provide more of an authentic and fun getaway adventure. Overlanding does tend to scratch paint so enter at your own risk! There is a Volleyball Net and Horseshoe set for use as well.
Nearby in the soapstone mining town of Schuyler you can visit the home place of Earl Hamner, best known for his creation of The Waltons TV show. While you're there check out the Waltons Mountain Museum, which happens to be my old elementary school and my parent's former high school. The Rockfish River dam and quarry gardens are really cool too!

Welcome to Arcadia Sanctuary
An 83-Acre Mountainside Retreat for Earth-Based Spirituality in Central Virginia
Arcadia is our beloved sanctuary for earth-based spirituality, nestled on the southeastern slope of 4,000-foot Mount Pleasant in Central Virginia. Conveniently located near I-81, Arcadia offers a secluded, nature-immersed experience—just a short drive from the modern world, yet miles away in spirit.
Please note: There is a town called Arcadia off I-81, but we are not located there. Be sure to follow our directions carefully.
A Living Landscape of Forest, Water, and Wildness
Our land features a flowing mountain creek with waterfalls, towering Beech and Sycamore trees, and Witch Hazels leaning gracefully over the water. You'll encounter trout, crayfish, salamanders, snakes, and the full chorus of mountain wildlife.
With nearly 2,000 feet of vertical mountainside, Arcadia offers trails to explore and camping options ranging from creek side convenience to secluded mountain hideaways. While most of our gathering areas are near creek level, higher sites are available for those seeking solitude—just be prepared for a bit of a hike to the bathrooms, showers, and fresh water.
A Natural Amphitheater for Music and Gathering
Arcadia is home to one of the finest private stages on the East Coast. Our natural amphitheater—shaped like a pie wedge carved into the mountainside—hosts live performances throughout spring, summer, and fall. With a top-quality sound system and stunning surroundings, it’s a magical venue for music, ceremony, and celebration.
Stay With Us: Yurt Glamping, Tent Camping & More
Our beautiful yurt is available for rent and offers a unique glamping experience surrounded by nature. For traditional campers, we offer multiple campsites near the creek, as well as more remote locations higher up the mountain.
Every stay includes access to the shared amenities: bathrooms, hot showers, fresh water, and community gathering spaces.
Meet the Arcadia Community
Arcadia is alive with more than just trees and streams. You’ll share space with our free-roaming flock of chickens, ducks, turkeys, and guinea fowl, along with two friendly dogs, nine curious cats, and the human stewards who live and care for this land year-round.

Enjoy our family's 32 acre eco-wonder property that features forested mountain walking trails, two small ponds, seasonal waterfall, and the Potomac River that runs through it. Perfect private retreat for nature enthusiasts, writers, artists, musicians, contemplatives, and small families. MountainTop got its namesake over 30 years ago for the small mountain plateau that resides at the top of the property, just a short hike from the cabins and campsites. One can easily find the soothing voice of water nearby at the seasonal waterfall or alongside the flowing river. Rejuvenate with friends, families, nature lovers, and contemplatives. Mountaintop offers superb stargazing, swimming, fishing, hiking, strenuous mountain biking, camping, serenity, peace, and connective nature immersion.
There are currently three sites: the MountainTop Cabin (sleeps up to 4); the Retreat Cabin (sleeps up to 4): and the Fern Grove campsite (sleeps up to 4). You can book a cabin or the campsite for your family, or the whole place for a small group by booking each site--that will ensure privacy. The two cabins have high speed internet access and the tent site can get access by walking to the Peace Pavilion. Last year we hosted wellness retreats for small groups at this little oasis tucked in the mountains of gorgeous West Virginia.

Sam’s place was great. The dirt gravel road in had some low hanging branches for our 12’ rig, but we managed. We loved the privacy as we were the only site booked on the property. It was secluded and the stars were epic. There was plenty of firewood and all the hookups worked great. Great location for other adventures as well. Very easy communication.

Group trip
High Camp served as a our base camp for some local adventures; there is a lot to do in this part of the world!
Host John happened to be on site when we arrived and helped us identify the exact location of the water and 50 AMP electric supply to the site. We set up near the picnic table atop a knoll, parallel to and just inside the "cut" edge of the field. (The hookups are behind the Bounder Camper (future rental space--currently unoccupied) which is visible to the right as you drive in, up behind the Christmas tree lot.)
We did have to go to the max capacity of our wheel leveling ramp and were still a little out of level left-to-right, but we were easily able to level on the long axis with our hitch jack.
The property is beautiful with amazing views to the west--prepare for some stunning sunset vistas. We did wander around some of the closely-mowed trails (paths) and enjoyed some of the nostalgic, vintage vehicles set around for fun. We did enjoy the 30 acres of solitude. Some reviews mentioned road noise--we barely noticed it and never found it even a bit annoying. A distant, active train track across the valley added the occasional train horn, which was delightful in our book
Had some friends car-camping with us--they also found High Camp to their liking.

The hosts were so accommodating and very friendly. Great with communication as we made our way there. We stayed at site rv11 which provided a large space attached to an open field. There is a big tree for shade. Water and electric hookups provided. Good WiFi allowed us to keep track of the World Cup soccer which was great! We were right near the river which offered lovely background sound. Our pups loved romping in the water in the river as well. The bathrooms/showers were very clean. The campground was close to some great hikes which is what drew us there. Loved st Mary’s falls (holiday weekend so super busy) and also Crabtree Falls trail. Both close by and great hikes. There was mention of the train track nearby but trains passed very infrequently and also the sound was muffled by the river and the woods so if anything we found it very pleasant, romantic soft background sound. I think only 2 trains in the several days we were there.

This was a perfect little campsite just off the beaten path enough to be very quite and feel remote yet still close enough to the freeway and town to catch some beer pub and World Cup soccer game action

Seclusion! It's scenic and you won't see or hear anything but nature.

We had another peaceful stay at the lovely Swedish Lilac Campground. The tall trees provide plenty of shade with wonderful sunny spots as well as the lovely river running past.

Best of both worlds - nature and the city…
Super easy access to trails.
Located in a neighborhood and situated behind a house, the sites are next to a creek that you can easily cross and make your way into downtown.
Very peaceful, family and solo adventure friendly.

We had such a great experience at Swedish Lilac. We had a beautiful site near the river, with a view of the meadow. Our hosts, Fritz and Valerie were so accommodating and gave us some great tips on what to see and do in the Lexington area. We rode our bikes on the Chessie Trail, which was wonderful, shady and level. We also visited Natural Bridge State Park. Also enjoyed playing ping pong in the pavilion and watching fireflies at night. Wish we could have stayed longer.
