This beautiful property on 60+ acres offers camping in hay fields that are bordered by forest, and have creeks running throughout. You can park directly at all of the sites. Pack-in, pack-out. No electricity or water hookups. The sites are best suited for tent camping and truck-top campers, though we've also had camper vans book our sites with a good experience.
*Sandy Bottom: this is the flattest/most level option, with wide open field bordered by trees and access to Davis Creek. These sites are closest to 29, and you should expect road noise. There are natural springs clearly marked so you can avoid getting any vehicles stuck.
*Crawfish Creek: This is the most secluded/quiet site, with creek access. There are natural springs around the creek in this location, so pay attention to the marked off areas to avoid getting stuck.
*Sunset Ridge: This site has incredible 360 panoramic mountain views, and shares a driveway to the private residence. If you choose to bring dogs to this site, please know that they will be able to see (and smell and hear) our many animals and livestock guardian dogs.
Safety, privacy and environmental impact is very important to us. Please contain all trash, human waste and canine waste and pack it out with you when you leave. Be kind to the areas in which you camp, as they are home to many wildlife, native trees/shrubs/plants and in some cases, food for horses and cows (hay fields).
PLACES CLOSE BY: Experience Davis Creek, woods, pastures, and miles of dirt roads for biking/hiking. Just minutes from the Nelson 151 Craft Beverage trail (over 15 family friendly breweries/winers) and right across the street from Woodridge Farm Brewery. There's Public Access to the Rockfish River .75 mile away. Charlottesville is an easy 25 minute drive.
GROUPS: We only allow a small amount of bookings at each of our three sites to allow for a spaced-out, private experience BUT if you have a large group of people and would like to book an entire site we can add spaces to that site for the dates you are looking to book to accommodate; just shoot us a message.

Welcome to South River Camp: Where Nature Is Real and Expectations Are Optional
If you’re dreaming of a glamping getaway where the birds file noise complaints against themselves and the rest of the world disappears beyond a 50-mile radius… well, this isn’t that place.
At South River Camp, we celebrate actual nature — chirping birds, babbling water, star-filled skies, and yes, a few passing cars from the nearby bridge and adjoining roads. You might even catch a distant train whistle about half a mile away. (Darn Norfolk Southern Railway.)
We’re tucked along the beautiful South River in the Shenandoah Valley, where comfort and nature meet in perfect balance — yet remain conveniently close to civilization. Sip your coffee by the river, roast marshmallows under the stars, and let nature do its thing — without filing a noise complaint against a frog choir.
⸻
A Few “Concerns” to Clear Up
• “This isn’t off-grid.” If your idea of off-grid is 100 miles from civilization and reachable only by carrier pigeon, then sure — we’re not that. But there’s no power, no running water, no gas line, and nothing tied into municipal infrastructure. We’re powered by nature, not a utility bill. So yes, we’re off-grid — just not your wool-socks-and-Birkenstocks version of it. (Though, for the record, we wear Birkenstocks too.)
• “We were seen in towels.” Hmmm… which is why we gently suggest skipping the towel parades through camp. Our enclosed shower stalls are there for a reason: shower, dry off, then get dressed before rejoining the great outdoors.
• “It was in somebody’s backyard.” Sorry — our two acres aren’t tucked away in the middle of a federally protected reserve in the middle of nowhere. But our closest neighbor is nearly 300 feet away, and we happen to think riverside camping with a little civilization nearby is a pretty great trade-off.
⸻
If those realities feel unacceptable, we wish you luck finding a soundproof, neighbor-free, bird-mute utopia. But if you’re after a laid-back, laughter-filled, and unapologetically outdoor getaway on the banks of the South River — welcome. You’ve found it.
Don’t forget your robe.

This is an active 55-acre horse farm. About 2/3rds of the property is developed with barns and fenced pastures and the other third is largely undeveloped areas with a loop driveway where most of the camp sites are located. There is a large white house at the far end of the property. The restroom for campers to use is located there. To one side of the driveway, on the way to the house there is a beautiful large swimming pond, complete with beach and gazebo.
The property is unique in that you can hardly see another house from anywhere on the property and yet we are only 2 miles from Barracks Rd. Shopping Center, and 4 miles from the University of Virginia.

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.

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.

Great overnight stay. One thing, careful of the directions on Hipcamp map link, they will take you to the wrong place. Who is the address that is on the listing

This was an excellent place to camp for the night. I had traveled eight hours that day and so it was perfect to roll right up a nice driveway to reveal the campsite with an amazing view! My dog was beside himself with all the new scents and time playing fetch. I rolled out early AM for another long day behind the wheel on my way to Maine. Would definitely book there again based on my pleasant experience.

We enjoyed the privacy of our time at the rock meadow. The drive in was especially scenic. This was a great place for the stopover on our trip north. The open sky was especially beautiful in the morning.

Overall, I would definitely recommend camping at this Hipcamp! It is much more private than a typical campsite, and there is plenty of room for large groups. The fire pits are a nice touch, and we even had a few tree stumps and logs to sit on. This recent trip I was at Site 2, which I preferred to my previous stay which was at Site 7. Site 2 is located at the bottom of a hill so we had to carry our things, but it was a short walk. This site is also closest to the bathroom, which was really convenient. We were able to park our car next to the road and out of any mud. At Site 7 we had to drive through a bit of mud to get to the campsite and my car got stuck and had to be pushed out. The only major downside of this Hipcamp is that the grass is so long at all of the sites I've been to. It makes it a bit uncomfortable to walk through, especially after a rainy night. Fortunately, I haven't found any ticks yet!

We loved camping up there! Yes you can hear the highway, so if you are looking for complete peace and quiet this probably isn’t your spot. We didn’t mind it one bit and still felt out in nature. The views are stunning!!! The telephone tower is right at site 2 but there’s so much space we didn’t mind at all.

I stayed just one night at the Forest Site at Galleywinter Farm. Great setup. Gail was on top of communication, and directions were excellent. They were people staying at the other campsites, but they’re far enough away that there were no issues with privacy. The shower was the perfect way to begin my day. The farm and surrounding area is gorgeous. I spent a night here after several days of hiking in Shenandoah NP, and stopped at the Blue Ridge Tunnel (quite close) on my way out of town. Several wineries and breweries nearby. I particularly enjoyed Blue Mountain Brewery (great burgers), less than a 10-minute drive.
I look forward to spending a bit more time at Galleywinter on my next trip to the area. Would definitely recommend!
