Come enjoy the serene views of Marsh Duck Way located in The Back Bay/Pungo area of Virginia Beach. A night under the moon and stars is all it takes to recharge. Whether it’s practicing mindfulness, reconnecting with yourself, moving your body, practicing gratitude, or simply watching the birds, fishing, crabbing, a quick getaway can offer space to focus on what means most to you. Waking up to the symphony of birds chirping in the morning and a gentle breeze rustling through the native foliage as you lay in the hammock enjoying your morning coffee uninterrupted by car horns and cell phone rings? This is available in Virginia Beach? Yes…there’s a place where you can still catch sight of a deer or fox through the tall trees, spot dancing river otters on the bank or in the creek. The Wildlife Refuge is adjacent to this property and across the bay…In this area of Pungo you can expect to see migratory birds, more than 300 species call this place home…which affords some of the best bird-watching opportunities on the East Coast. While this is especially true during the fall and winter months, when thousands of birds, such as snow and Canadian geese, tundra swans and a variety of duck species flock to the Bay to rest and feed before their long journey south, many species can be spotted year-round. Osprey, gannets, gulls and terns can be seen fishing and wax myrtles line the canal to the bay which provides habitats for a variety of nesting songbirds. There is no shortage of waterfowl that can be spotted here. In addition to a large number of avian visitors each year, Back Bay is also home to many other species that crawl, swim, scurry and slither with a variety of snakes and turtles. Few places on the East Coast offer such unique beauty and diversity of wildlife and opportunities to experience all of these wonderful creatures in their natural habitats abound. Head out of our private launch on a paddle boat, paddle board or one of our kayaks into the Back Bay. These are available as extras😊. There is a fire pit, firewood, a kudu grill and string lighting throughout the trees! The wild is calling you at The Back Bay Marsh Duck Way Campsite. All you have to do is answer.This property allows you to set up your campsite situated within the 2 acres of trees, under the string lights or on the bank of the canal whichever you prefer! This campsite is waterfront with spectacular views and a hammock nestled in between the trees for your use. You can fish, crab and have a bonfire…firewood is provided at the site. There is a trashcan on the property to dispose of trash…please clean up after yourself before you leave : )

5 stars!

Solid spot! I would highly recommend this location. It was perfect for what my Family and I were looking for enough privacy, space, fishing, relaxing. The two residents/ houses near site are not the host so need to respect their property lines but had no issues. Danielle, the host was very accommodating to our request for early arrival and bringing trailer, two cars and kayaks. Also the solar lights and hammock were a nice touch. The host also offers a trash bin which was much appreciated. 5 stars!! Thank you Danielle!!

Great Spot!

Spot was awesome to get away for a couple nights. Tucked back on someone’s property right on the marsh. Plenty of space for tents and camping equipment. Especially enjoyed fishing for bass right next to the fire and music. Would definitely return.

Great campsite! The hammock and string lights added a good ambiance, and the stars at night were pretty. Clear and simple instructions too!
