10000% will be going back! Greg was super nice. He provided firewood which a huge plus. The portapotty was probably the cleanest portapotty I've ever seen. So close to the river and the floating dock was amazing!! 10/10!!!

We had an amazing weekend on Gregory's land. His directions made the location easy to find and provided the basic necessities that made it perfect. We will definitely be coming back again.

Owls at night were enchanting. The sky is gorgeous at night. Water & dock were ideal. Peace of heaven on earth.

This is our family's third time renting Orphans Island. We love that we can rent the spot and have the privacy to be as crazy as we are. Greg does a great job keeping things clean and updated. He is super helpful and easy to get a hold of if you have questions. We will definitely be coming back again!

This was my first experience with Hipcamp and I truly enjoyed my time there. Greg is a great host, the bathroom was kept clean during our 4 day trip. This was the first girl’s camping trip I took with my best friend where it was just the two of us and we had a blast the entire time. There was plenty of shade, a pretty big fire pit, and tons of privacy. When the sun was too much, we grabbed our river tube and headed to the private dock off of the James river. The water was clear and the surroundings and wildlife was unforgettable. Despite the rain, our campsite stayed dry and we didn’t get bogged down in a ton of mud. It was easier than I thought it would be to find the camp itself and there is a Dollar General about 15 minutes away, so it was convenient. We will definitely be back to do a couple’s camping trip very soon. I am pleased that there is an app like this for people who want to camp more privately. It was a great experience all the way around.

We all loved this spot! The host (Gregory) and his wife were so kind and if we needed anything they would accommodate to that. He made sure we were stocked up on fire wood, helped blow up our air mattresses and even brought us some fishing poles, bait and some floaties. The only bad thing I have to say is that the current in the river was a little strong but we still had a good time!

Was a beautiful campsite. and very private . Greg met us to make sure we had all we needed. He later returned with more firewood. The outdoor facility was very clean. We definitely will be returning.

Camping here was great. There is plenty of room for tents and towables. The view of the James River is fantastic along with the floating deck you can relax on. Mr. Greg was very nice and courteous, and non-intrusive. The road there can get a little muddy, if it's wet you'll probably want to use 4wd to not tear up the road.

Great host! We've been here many times and it is always great. The dock is very relaxing, the portable toilet is very clean, and he always makes sure there is enough firewood.

We loved this campsite, Greg was an amazing host, we had some issues of our own and he was so accommodating and helpful with what we had going on. The river was so refreshing, and peaceful. Would highly recommend staying here, we can't wait to book again with Greg.

A basic, no frills, campsite. But the bathroom was clean, the host was kind and accommodating, there was lots of space to run around, and the river view was wonderful. Playing and swimming in the river and having it almost completely to ourselves was the best! Greg even brought down an extra inner tube for our little girl to play in.

Our family had such a great stay at this location! The owner was there when we arrived to give us a tour and had plenty of wood and water available on site for us to use. The location was perfect and the campsite was very well kept. We played and swam all weekend in our own private camp! Couldn’t have asked for a better trip! Thank you, Greg!

We went tent camping at Greg's my wife and I with four kids. It was very spacious, we never felt cramped even with another group of people there. Greg is very polite and friendly, we are already talking about going back again this year. Would highly recommend if you love being near the water and listening to nature it's really peaceful.

We enjoyed are stay on Orphans Island. This is our 2nd visit and we plan on making it a yearly tradition. It has a ton of space and next to the river is amazing. Great space for my 5 kids to play and enjoy the outside!

This was our 2nd stay! Greg is an amazing helpful host. He added some things to the camp and he really goes above and beyond. He helped us get our keys out of our truck that we accidentally locked inside. He pulled out my grandparents truck and trailer out of the mud. He was attentive to the dock on the river. Super super friendly and awesome!!!! This is going to be our family's camping spot fursure. Thank you Greg for letting our family make memories together on your property!!!
