This campsite always offers a clean and tidy appearance. Always well maintained by Glenn and the volunteers of the conservancy. This campground offers the prettiest amenities with access to the Appalachian trail and the. Bears den overlook. Great locale. Great local amenities offering food and drink. A most beautiful part of virginia

This was an ideal camping spot for a larger group. Close to many scenic outlooks and hiking. Note: parking is very limited

Nice sites in wooded area
Campsite #5 at Bear's Den offers a unique experience, but there are definitely some pros and cons to consider.
Pros:
====
- The wooded setting is beautiful and provides plenty of shade during the day.
- If you’re looking for a rustic feel, this site delivers. It's a great place to connect with nature and enjoy the sounds of the forest.
Cons:
====
- The ground was quite rocky, making it difficult to find a level spot for pitching a tent. It might be better suited for hammock camping. Otherwise consider a thick pad or cot for a more restful night.
- We visited during a holiday weekend, and the campsite was quite busy. The noise level was higher than we expected, which detracted from the peaceful ambiance we were hoping for since all five sites were occupied that weekend.
Overall, while Campsite #5 has its charm, I would recommend it for more seasoned campers who don’t mind a little ruggedness. If you’re looking for flat, easy tent sites or a quieter experience, you might want to consider other options.

I loved the sites which are large and tucked into the trees. Bear’s Den is in a great location but feels isolated. Access to water and a shower are always a plus!

Kid's First Camping Trip!
This was our first time camping with our Kiddo's 7 and 4. The site was easily accessible for them with several beautiful nature trails and an incredible cliff view of the sunset. The site itself was well kept with a deep walled firebit, clean ten sites, and picnic tables for meals. I really couldn't ask for more it was a wonderful stay!
