Big Meadow

92% (30)

Tent site · Sleeps 5

This site is on a grade, and ideal for campers with smaller sized vehicles who want to set up a few tents in natural shade. Big Meadow is a little more private than our other terraced forest sites, although you may still have camper neighbors within fifty feet on some weekends. If you are bringing more than one vehicle, you may want to park along the edge of the forest to make room for other guests. Big Meadow is the name of our area's most popular Shenandoah National Park welcome center and campground. (Skyline Drive) Big Meadows and nearby hikes to waterfalls are a "must see" first destination if you are headed to the Park.

Brown's Gap (Firepit campsite)

90% (24)

Tent site · Sleeps 5

Recent improvements to this site make setting up a tent easier, and the retainer wall top provides sitting and dining space. There is plenty of room for 3 tents, and extra parking. Campsite surrounded by lots of trees located near top of our campground. If you want additional privacy or shade, you may push your tent area back into the woods a little more. Some tenting areas are on a grade, as we are located on a hillside. I've included a few fun photos of our farm and Grampy's Village Zoo, and a recent hike to Nelson County. This site is named after a really nice pet-friendly hike along a stream, accessible from Harrisonburg's Port Republic Rd. You can take the hike all the way to the Shenandoah National Park's Skyline Drive.

A favorite site for campers who want a little more privacy. Located at the top of our camp, mostly accessible by smaller vehicles. There are 3 fairly level pads available for tent set ups. Surrounded by trees. Don't miss a day trip to Dark Hollow Falls, in the Shenandoah National Park. I've included a number of photos of this immense, staircase accessible cascade.

RV/tent site · Sleeps 5 · Vehicles under 18 ft

Improvements almost completed!!! Popular site for small to medium sized vehicles, near the bathhouse, and easy to access. A very neat, comfortable site with 50 feet -75 feet space from other guests. (Neighboring buildings several hundred feet away.) We’ve just added a breaker wall, fire pit, and level area for a 12x12 tent. Named for our beloved Yellow Cliff mountain and overlook, near New Market Gap. (Ask about a guided tour to this very unique and breathtaking hike)

Silver Lake

RV/tent site · Sleeps 5 · Vehicles under 22 ft

This is our largest boondocker spot in the upper meadow, with lots of shade. Enjoy a fairly flat gravel pad large enough to accommodate a 22 foot camper. Firepit included. Bath house is within a hundred feet. We named this site after Silver Lake Mill in Dayton, Virginia. Great tourist shop and up close view of a civil war era feed mill and lake. While you're in Dayton, check out the Dayton Community of Shops for a really rich local-culture shopping experience. I've lived here for 16 years and always find something new and special at the Dayton Community of Shops.

Fridley's Gap

RV/tent site · Sleeps 10 · Vehicles under 30 ft

Fridley's Gap site is a wide open meadow area, located immediately to your left when you first get into our property. There is room for several vehicles and tents. It's a good choice for campers who need lots of space, but no electrical hook up. You can set up tents under the trees along the fence line. Accessible year around. We named this site after this area's most popular hike and rock scramble. Fridleys Gap is located about 15 minutes from here. It has a swimming hole and, further in, a great overlook. I've taken my kids rock scrambling many times at Fridleys Gap

Located in the lower meadow, our Crabtree Falls site is accessible year round. Well suited for your medium sized TT. Larger RVs will need blocking .

We will provide a portable tank (Blue waste tank pictured) Site photos are from our guests, and local adventure seeking. I named this site after Crabtree Falls in Nelson County, Virginia.

Our first time camping at Nathan's farm/campground went very well. Nathan and his big dog are very nice. The trees are great. The bathroom was super clean. Note that the entire site slopes uphill from the access point so be prepared to level your camper.

Dark Hollow Falls

We had a great experience staying at Dark Hollow Falls, needed to find a camp site on the road somewhat last minute and Nathan property was in a great location close to the highway, but still felt nice and tucked away. We took advantage of the fire wood he supplied and all of the amenities, Nathan was very kind and considerate of our dog who isn't always great with other animals. Thank you to Appa for keeping the bears away at night!

Silver Lake

The other reviews weren't lying when they say this place is on a hill. This spot is about 4-5% grade with very minimal gravel. It's advertised as not being totally flat but given the location it's less than ideal. The right side of the parking spot is overgrown plants and about a foot drop of into an even lower ditch making it difficult to access the passenger side and trunk. Rain made it even worse. The fire pit is very close to the parking spot. It's advertised as being able to accommodate a camper, so wasn't expecting a tight fit in a car. There were no chairs at the site like in the photos. The dog barked all night. Wifi was good. Plenty of amenities otherwise. Id pick a spot lower by the entrance where it's flat.

3/5 stars

Tent · With pets ·

Melrose Cavern

3/5 stars; was adequate but could have been better. There were no flat patches for a tent in our site (#11), nor did there look to be flat patches in most of the sites around us. The campsites were also very densely packed together such that we had tents on both sides of us within 10-15 feet. The communal bathroom and shower were ok, they were unmarked (couldn’t tell which was which without opening each of the three doors) and they were intermittently out of toilet paper during our stay. Reasonably clean though. The road isn’t gravel all the way around the loop so we felt like we were driving through dirt forest to get around to our site - without someone (another camper) to tell us how to get through we would have been very confused.

I did Love this spot! It’s a little tricky getting in. And I would Triple check what spot you’re supposed to be in and be aware that their “map” is a little hard to figure out. I would also be aware that their dirt path to get to the camp sites is probably not all-car-friendly. Otherwise this was a fun campsite!

Solar lights line the road and make it easy to walk around at night. Shower has hot water and good pressure. Be sure to say hello to Nathan’s big floofy Newfie who loves to visit campers!

We had a great time tent camping in Traveler’s meadow as first time campers! Nathan was super responsive and helpful. The bathhouse was really convenient to have nearby our campsite. It should also be noted that the campsites are pretty close to one another, but there is still enough room for some privacy. Overall, was a great experience and recommend that others visit if they are in the area.
