Set along half a mile of Johns Creek in beautiful Craig County, Va, our 162-acre farm offers level open fields and shady groves surrounded by the mountains of the Jefferson National Forest. The beautiful, clear creek features shimmering riffles and deeper swimming or wading holes. When the water level permits, you can float the entire 1/2 mile by kayak. The area is home to a wide range of native Virginia species. Down by the water, you might see deer, bald eagles, a great blue heron, northern pintails, and wild turkey. Part of the wooded acreage is set aside as a wildlife preserve. Our mission is to be good stewards of the environment for the benefit of nature, our farm animals, our family, and YOU! In keeping with that goal, we do not treat our pastures with any pesticides, herbicides, or manufactured fertilizers. Whether you prefer car camping or want to leave your wheels behind, we have the perfect place for you to unwind and kindle your sense of wonder at the marvels of nature. We have great spots for individual campers, all the way up to groups of 25. Fresh well water is available by the farm house, and you're only 25 minutes from town for supplies. We do keep a few provisions on hand, such as camper-friendly foods, hygiene needs, batteries, flashlights etc. Depending on availability we might have farm fresh eggs from our own chickens. And by prior arrangement we may be able to provide home-cooked meals. Covered fire pits can be used when conditions allow. Firewood should be gathered from the property or purchased at the farmhouse. No outside wood is permitted due to the potential spread of invasive species. You may also contract for porta potty services for larger groups. The area has much to offer: the Appalachian Trail crosses nearby, the New River is 30 minutes away, you can be in Blacksburg or Mountain Lake in 40 minutes, and summer blueberry picking is just the next valley over. Hike to beautiful waterfalls, Fenwick Mines, or Dragon's Tooth, all within 35 minutes. Mountain bike on unpaved forest roads...the 15-mile Tub Run Road starts right below the farm! At this time, we do not take bookings for specific sites. We will work with you to select the perfect spot based on your preferences, vehicle type, and anticipated weather/conditions.

Such a great campsite and host, highly recommend! Dawna was lovely and very accommodating, helping us to find the perfect spot on her farm. She had a table and chairs and firepit set up for use overlooking the river, beautiful and peaceful place for our family to relax and enjoy.

Awesome spot right on the creek! Clean creek for swimming! Even after quite a bit of rain the site was still nice and clean and great for holding tent spikes. Aside from a few cars going to the cabins down the road, the spot was pretty secluded and great for taking the pups! Will definitely return, thanks!

Fantastic spot with a great host. Plenty of options from open pasture to more secluded in the woods camping. No cell service with Verizon which is ok by me but could be an issue for some people. Would definitely stay here again.

This camp spot is excellent! Outlet host was responsive and friendly. The trickling creek is the perfect volume for falling asleep. The road in is windy and fun and the area has lots of narrow windy paved roads to explore the area. Would definitely stay again

Beautiful campsite! The river that runs along side of it is so relaxing. Todd the host made sure to have campfire wood provided for us and he even had 2 kayaks to use if we wanted. We had plenty of grass to park our 35 ft fifth wheel on and the picnic table was in great shape and the campfire ring great size! It was truly rustic camping just like we love! We had a wonderful and relaxing time while we were there! The only negatives were no WiFi available and we wished there had of been trails to walk our 2 dogs. We highly recommend this Hipcamp if you want peace and quiet time on your vacation. Thank you Todd!
