3.2mi from Maggie L Walker National Historic Site · 2 sites · Tents, RVs · Richmond, VA
Learn more about this land: Come take a load off at this forested Richmond retreat overlooking Reedy Creek. Set up a tent, car camp, or bring your small trailer to one of two sites on a unique property backed up to 20+ acres of woods. Imagine a hidden gem where you can relax to the sounds of rushing water and chirping birds, but can walk or bike to coffee shops, breweries, restaurants, parks or the river. If you are coming into Richmond for a Brown's Island event we are a five minute Uber to an access point using the Potterfield walking bridge (it's a beautiful walk across the James River to the island). Each campsite includes 3 level spots to pitch tents (see dimensions below), and a connected space to park one car, van or small trailer. The large parking space can be used as a fourth tent footprint if needed. There are additional parking spaces. Each site has a fire pit (with firewood on site), a grate to grill over the fire, a picnic table, and a hammock. There is a shared outbuilding with a composting toilet, hand washing sink, outdoor shower (solar warmed), and space to change privately.  Campsite W ~  Tent footprints: 1) 10' x 12' 2) 10' x 13' 3) 9' x 10' Campsite E ~ Tent footprints: 1) 15'x16' 2) 10' x 15' 3) 9' x 10' **Pricing is based on groups of up to four adults or two adults with children. For groups of five to seven adults there is an additional charge of $10 person per day. For groups of eight or more we suggest you reserve both sites and have the entire camp to yourselves. Campsites W and E are about 80' apart. Both are around 100' to the creek. The spots can accommodate a total length (towing vehicle plus trailer) of up to 35 ft. There is an outdoor spigot with potable water and hoses for clean up. The woodlands and creek adjacent to the campsites have trails that are accessible to the public. You and your furry friends are welcome to use these paths, but know that others may be using them too. Richmond has so much to offer and we are just a hop, skip, and a jump to many wonderful attractions - kayak or sunbathe on the James River, walk or bike on trails around the city, rock climb, dine, imbibe. PLEASE NOTE* These sites are on a private property with a house that is visible to campers, but we give our guests complete privacy and don't plan to interact unless you need something from us. While you are on a 2 acre property backed up to a 20 acre wooded area, we are still in the middle of the city and you will hear city sounds. This is a safe space. We do not discriminate based on anything that makes you...you.

1.3mi from Maggie L Walker National Historic Site · 1 site · Lodging · Richmond, VA
NEW IN 2025: There is a beautiful cabin for guests to use. Sleeps 5 easily. Also new is the outdoor kitchen and bar. Check out @sharpsislandrva on Insta to see pics! NOTE: The parking situation has changed due to construction! The parking information in the pictures is not correct (but Hipcamp won't let me delete them). Contact Andy at 804-212-6639 for parking instructions. There is no bridge to Sharp's Island, but we can rent you a canoe or kayak. It's super easy. Sharp's Island is so named because the Sharp family of Richmond owned it as far back as the 1850s. The old brick foundation you see in the pictures is all that remains of a house that was built on the island in 1895 and stood for 75 years! We consider ourselves stewards of an amazing historic, ecological, geologic, and recreational asset, and we would love to have you add your story to this island's long history! Learn more about this land: One-of-a-kind really only begins to describe 1-acre Sharp's Island! For starters, this is the only legal camping option in the city of Richmond. You read that correctly. This is your own private island, and it's right in the heart of downtown RVA! The Piedmont meets the Coastal Plain right here at Sharp's Island. That makes for amazing fishing, especially during the spring shad and striper runs.  Some other incredible things about camping at Sharp's Island: You can motor up to it from Ancarrow's Landing, canoe over from the trail just below Mayo Bridge, or make this the destination for your downriver raft/kayak trip; at summer river levels there are oodles of great swimming holes along the banks; fire pit ready and waiting for you. And lots more!

Weekend Trip to Diamond Heritage Nature Sites
Ryant has set up a really nice place to camp! It is quiet and beautiful. And the wide open sky, with virtually no light pollution provides an amazing view of the stars!! The first night we were there, it was crystal clear and we could see stars that we had never seen before. The second night, there was a bit of haze and it made a really awesome halo around the Moon! If you're into history, he has done research, and continues to do so, and has great stories about the history of the property and what he is in the process of uncovering. I would highly recommend that you check it out. He's a great guy and can relate to your needs, as he loves to camp as well. I was very impressed by the investment he has made in equipment to help out campers who might not be as prepared as they should be. It's only going to get better, as he has big plans for improving, even beyond the excellent property that it already is. You won't be disappointed. Rightly so, he expects respect of the property and other campers, but isn't that the type of place you want to go? It is definitely one of the things that are high on my list. We'll definitely be back!

My friend and I had an amazing time camping on Ryant’s property! The site was very spacious and Ryant offered many supplies to us for us such as firewood, lounge chairs, and tiki lamps. He was very friendly and welcoming when we first arrived as he showed us around the site and told us the story behind his property. The highlight of the trip was Ryant’s “glamper” tent which he offered us when we arrived. It’s an elevated platform with a tent and storage unit on top. It made our stay all the more comfortable and easy! I would 10/10 recommend this property to anyone wanting to camp for cheap and receive great care and service from Ryant.

We enjoyed our stay on this property! The archers den campsite felt very private and had plenty of space. We loved the big fire pit with cooking grate.. The three campsites are far enough away from the winery/brewery that you don’t feel like you are camping at public business. Even though they had live music playing and seemed pretty busy we could barely hear anything going on. On the other hand if you wanted to enjoy the festivities it’s just a short walk from the campsites.

This campsite was great and the winery/ brewery on site was so much fun. Our puppy loved the dog park as well as walking around the campsite. The picnic table and fire pit were high quality and thus was the perfect back drop to the Fall season. Will definitely be coming back. Sheridan was wonderful and very quick to respond even when I mistakenly went to the wrong location, she redirected us with ease!

Note that the city noises at night (which host is transparent about) are real; there are trains with blaring horns every night several times, so just bring your ear plugs. There are also coyotes, abundant birdsong and the babbling creek to listen to :)

Christopher Run Campground

Welcome to Christopher Run Campground, a unique destination nestled on the shores of Lake Anna, where history and nature intertwine. Established by Sam and Jean Bazzanella in 1973, this campground transformed from a small picnic area into a beloved retreat, thanks to the couple's resilience and vision after losing 40 acres of farmland to the lake created for cooling the nearby nuclear power plant. When Hurricane Agnes filled the lake in 1972, the Bazzanellas' initial efforts—a modest picnic shelter and boat ramp—quickly gained popularity among friends and family. As word spread, visitors began to request overnight camping, inspiring the Bazzanellas to officially open Christopher Run Campground. Initially featuring just 60 sites and a small store, the campground rapidly became a sought-after spot for outdoor enthusiasts. Over the years, with dedication and support from family and friends, the campground expanded to accommodate over 200 sites, offering a variety of amenities that enhance the camping experience. Today, Christopher Run Campground continues to thrive under the guidance of the next generation of Bazzanellas, ensuring that guests enjoy the same warmth and hospitality that made this campground a cherished destination.

Cozy Acres Campground stands out as a unique destination for outdoor enthusiasts, offering a blend of serene privacy and access to nature's beauty in rural Powhatan County. Established in 1974, this family-owned campground was the dream of Larry Daniel, who envisioned a place where families could connect with nature and create lasting memories. The journey to creating Cozy Acres began in 1972 when Larry and his wife, Jean, operated an RV sales dealership in Richmond, VA. While they enjoyed success in their business, Larry's aspiration to open a campground never faded. When he discovered the ideal property in Powhatan County, he seized the opportunity, despite Jean's initial reservations. With the support of their young son, Scott, the family dedicated their weekends to transforming the land into a welcoming campground. After two years of hard work and just after welcoming their second son, Preston, Cozy Acres Campground opened its doors in time for the 4th of July weekend. Today, visitors can enjoy spacious sites, a peaceful atmosphere, and nearby attractions such as swimming holes, hiking trails, and local restaurants and shops. Cozy Acres Campground is more than just a place to stay; it’s a haven for families seeking adventure and relaxation in the great outdoors.

The best camping in Maggie L Walker National Historic Site, VA guide

Overview

About

Want to get up close and personal with a pillar of African American history? Visit the Richmond home of Maggie Lena Walker. A civil rights leader in the Jim Crow era, this tough woman left behind a legacy.

Among her (many) accomplishments, Walker was the first female founder and president of a chartered bank. This historic site in the heart of downtown Richmond is a tribute to her life and work during a time rife with civil rights struggle.

Park rangers lead visitors through the restored two-story residence several times a day. With its collection of Walker family artifacts, this place quickly transports you to the 1930s. The historic site also features a visitor center, which details Walker's life and the role Richmond played in her endeavors.

If you have some spare time, walk through the historic Jackson Ward neighborhood. A podcast tour brings the old segregation-era buildings to life. If you don't have an iPod, the visitor center can lend you one.

You can easily see this historic site in a single afternoon, but don't let that fool you. It's impossible not to come away from this landmark feeling inspired by Walker's courage and spirit.
