Nestled on a private 65-acre farm in the Alleghany Highlands of Virginia, Beaverdam Falls is located on VA SR-311 (Kanawha Trail) in the Sweet Springs Valley. Nestled in the old community of Earlehurst, between Covington & Roanoke, Beaverdam Falls are an historic series of waterfalls on private property. The Falls are at the headwaters of Dunlap Creek and are the terminus for the Sweet Springs. Available for guest stays & recreation, are the Upper Falls portion. Surrounded by the verdant George Washington National Forest, the Upper Falls, displays a constant waterfall of around 40-feet in height, & decorates the final mile stretch of the Sweet Springs, both on our property. Additional beautiful cascades pepper our tract of Beaverdam Falls as well. This private tract of unparalleled Virginia countryside will simply astonish your expectations. As the source of the Falls, Sweet Springs Creek, serves as a long, unique home for trout, calcified travertine rock, chalybeate water, and ancient beaver dams (as well as active ones!). Beaverdam Falls is a rare place for the lack of stone and the centuries of beavers who have left their trace in & on our creek—and swamp, the Stick Marsh, which has an active beaver dam. Be careful! They do bite!

Sleep adjacent the calming sounds of a waterfall! Explore one of the rarest caves on Earth! Or, view from your deck an active beaver preserve & federally registered palustrine wetland! Or, just walk to the Falls! This site may not be directly in front of the Falls, but it's in the heart of wildlife & nature--and is the most private site! It's like being in your own private world...but be careful, you're near the cave, so if you can find it... watch your step! Located above the wetlands & looking down on the beaver preserve, The Cattails is situated near a fabulous, federally protected wetland, the "Stick Marsh," which is not only full of cattails, but also beavers, muskrats, turtles, & many species of wildlife! View it all from this campsites dry, superb flat ground all while overlooking fabulous Dameron Mtn. If you desire complete privacy, "The Cattails," is the most private, best family/group option, as it's on relatively flat ground. This site is also overlooking The Beaver Preserve & is located near the kayak launch that guests may use to explore the Beaver Lake & wetland. We offer two, free single kayaks for guest use. Site is heated well by propane heat in the winter. 1 grill bottle of propane included. Additional propane for purchase: $30/bottle. No running water or electricity directly at this site. Communal restroom, shower & kitchen are a 2-minute walk away. Site does come with a portable potty with disposable "wag" bags. Top of the Rock is 1 of 3 canvas wall tents on the Property. This preserve is private and an exclusive property only for guests who have reserved any of our sites, & there may be other campers, fly fishers, or activity going on elsewhere by the Falls or on the land, as we are an active nature preserve. Most guests never see each other, nor are campsites visible from each other, but you do not have complete private control over the property through your reservation. Your booking only ensures that you have your site reserved. The property is open only to reserved guests, so there are no crowds. This site is a former Tentrr Signature site that we had actively listed online for 4-years. This site had nearly 50-star reviews during that time.

Beaverdam Falls, Top of the Rock II

100%
(26)
Cabin · Sleeps 4
Relax in high-style at the top of Beaverdam Falls. Sleep adjacent the whirling & calming noise of a gigantic waterfall & overlook the lower ponds & creek basins from surprising privacy and seclusion. Take a hike--no, really! Choose to walk down to the Falls or view it all from the Rope Bridge! The "Top of the Rock" campsite is situated on amazing ground! It's situated just above the largest waterfall on fabulous high travertine rock, but tucked away far enough to still retain privacy and seclusion from the main viewing area below, which is just a short walk down a gravel trail. The rope bridge is also just a stones throw away. This stellar site has a full frontal view of the main water and creek basins below but is not right on top of the falls, so as to be too loud or too visible. And for the most part you are nestled under shade trees and are at the best crossroads on the property to take advantage of all the views and sites. Site is heated well by propane heat in the winter. 1 grill bottle of propane included. Additional propane for purchase: $30/bottle. No running water or electricity directly at this site. Communal restroom, shower & kitchen are a short walk away. Site does come with a portable potty with disposable "wag" bags. Top of the Rock is 1 of 3 canvas wall tents on the Property.
