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!

W.T. Farm?

What makes W.T. Farm special is the diversity of textures of the landscape. We have great mountain top views, as well as, a deep holler with cliffs, rock outcroppings, and waterfalls. The fields are full of fruit and nut trees and there are 5 ponds. Each of these supports its own flora and fauna.
I acquired stewardship of this land years ago and have developed perennial orchards wherever possible. I started with pears and have branched out into pawpaws, apples, persimmons, currants, black walnuts etc. and I boast that I planted the first commercial hickory oil orchard in the world. I am an eccentric horticulturalist and graft cultivar varieties onto existing trees like oaks, hickories, black walnuts, and even the maligned invasive honeysuckle, autumn olive and multiflora rose.
Just last year I bought an adjoining farm that opened up 50 acres of more orchard planting. It is on top of the mountain and offers an expansive view of the valley and ridge system that defines our region. Funny thing is that because the land between the old farm and the new farm is divided by cliffs in the holler the only way to get from one to the other is a 12 minute drive or vigorous hiking. On this new land is a historic log cabin I am renovating that is said to be one of the original settler's cabin on the mountain.
Because of the amount of tree fruit I grow and the varied landscape, there is a rich diversity of birds and animals to be seen. One of my favorite walks is along the cliffs to the top waterfall where there is a sweet wading pool. I have also built a number of ponds and four of them are quite swimmable. One has a dock and is where we spend much summer time refreshing and frolicking.
The farm is also a small (very small) licensed farm winery and we make and sell traditional hard cider from our apples and pears. Our cider can be purchased along with our nut oils and flours and other farm produce you may not be familiar with. We live to eat. Coming here is a gastronomical adventure!
I run the Acornucopia project from here and from it we are developing a foragers network that would very much suit the lifestyle of hipcampers. We pay foragers for wild nuts they gather. Also often there is an opportunity to work on the farm harvesting and processing food. Let me know if that is something you would like to do.
Treely Yours,
Bill

In a remote valley just north of Roanoke VA, along the banks of Craig's Creek, the property includes mature hardwood forest, pasture, and an 1830s log cabin where we live. We love to share this special place with visitors, and have some basic amenities for campers. The campsites are at the edge of a large pasture and just a few steps from the creek and our big swimmin' hole. Totally secluded in a remote valley - barely a house in sight (but our cabin is a short walk through the woods if you need something), no cell service for most providers, but within a short drive of Roanoke and Blacksburg, and countless outdoor recreation opportunities.

Come camp at the top of the mountain on our private, undeveloped land. You’ll have access to miles of trails through wildflower meadows, old-growth forest, and ridgeline views. The site is peaceful, remote, and surrounded by native plants and wildlife.
This is a primitive campsite — there’s no running water, buildings, or electricity. It’s best suited for campers comfortable with a backcountry setup who want quiet, privacy, and natural beauty.
4WD Access Required:
The campsite is located at the top of a mountain. You’ll need a four-wheel-drive vehicle to access it. Though we are happy to arrange a shuttle for your gear with advance notice.
Water:
There is a year-round creek nearby with non-potable water. Perfect for rinsing off or washing dishes. Bring your own drinking water or a filter. 6 gallons of water will be left at the campsite to put out the fire or wash your hands.
Firewood Provided:
We supply firewood for each stay. Bring your own firestarter or lighter.
⚠️Please don't bring in firewood, it can introduce pest and pathogens harmful to the forest.
Trash Drop-Off:
Please pack out your trash. A drop-off point is available at the base of the mountain near the exit.
Cell Service:
Cell signal is strong at the campsite but I encourage you to unplug and take in the surroundings (P.S. The pictures don't do the land justice!)
Wildlife:
This is a natural, wooded area. Expect to see birds, deer, and maybe raccoons. Bears are uncommon but possible — store food securely and follow Leave No Trace practices.
No Bathroom On-Site:
You’ll need to bring a portable toilet, dig a cat hole, or use a wag bag system. Please be respectful of the land and other future guests.
Seclusion & Stargazing:
You’ll have plenty of space and privacy. On clear nights, the sky opens up, making it perfect for stargazing. There’s very little light pollution here and from late summer through early fall, the Milky Way is visible overhead.
You’ll see different native plants and wild edibles depending on the time of the year.

We had a great time tent camping here! Ended up a bit cloudy due to rain, which just means we’ll need to come back again soon. The site was perfectly private and met our needs. We ended up needing to leave a day early, but we could’ve enjoyed several more days here. Highly recommend booking a stay.

We tent camped here through a huge rainstorm, our site remained dry. The creek next to it never got up to where we were concerned about it getting into our site. The restrooms were exceptionally clean, well lit, and well stocked. The showers were great! The best outdoor showers I’ve used in a campground by far. Access was very easy, the campground feel is very private and secluded although it’s close to so much activity along the Greenbrier river. Other sites in the campground are not to close, you can have conversations at a normal speaking volume and never be heard. Most if not all sites are well shaded. Grass is mown for your site and a picnic table and fire ring is also at each site. This was an absolute dream of a campground 10/10 would go back anytime! Also the owner would come through every couple of days asking for feedback or things we may think needed improvement. Extremely friendly and welcoming!

We had a great stay at The Fire Pit! It rained. The whole time. We were ready for it and after a bit of patience, got the fire going and stayed cozy. Justin was a great host who visited before dark on our first night and provided access to a large stock of wood for the fire. He checked in via the app after to ensure all was well. The loop trail on the property was perfect for a short (20 minutes) walk during a break in the rain. It was green and mossy and almost like another planet! We saw several salamanders, a worm snake, a toad, many birds, cool bugs, and even a huge orange cat that slinked through the site! The calming rain patter was sometimes accompanied by a little road noise but once the sun went down, the cars stopped and it was our own little green world! 10/10 recommend and we will be back when the sun is shining.

This was my first time using hipcamp and the experience was even better than I imagined! The bathroom shack was absolutely adorable and convenient. The location! How unassuming from the front of the property but that view over the river and mountains (from the back of the property) was one of the most emotional experiences I have ever had with nature. I was blessed with a light show over the mountains (lightning/ dry lightning?) that I have only previously experienced on a tv screen. In the morning the fog covered the mountaintops and made it appear as if the mountains stretched into the clouds. Truly beautiful! My host was super responsive, very accommodating and went above and beyond to assure my comfort. We were hoping to meet but she had a sick kiddo, which we mamas know, come first! Definitely will be planning to make another stop here for another opportunity to meet my host and enjoy her wonderful property!

Great place to stay when biking the Greenbrier Rail Trail. I didn't get to talk to Steve but his assistant told me about the improvements they were working on. Should be the best place to stay along the Greenbrier in the near future.

This campsite was absolutely incredible. Waking up every morning to the beautiful views was peaceful and refreshing, and having the river only about 10 feet away from the campsite made the whole experience even better. Falling asleep to the sound of the water and being surrounded by nature was something I’ll never forget.
Terry was also an amazing host friendly, welcoming, and genuinely cared about making sure everyone had a great stay. You can tell he puts a lot of effort into creating a relaxing and memorable experience for his guests. I would highly recommend this campsite to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with amazing scenery and a great host. I’ll definitely be coming back again!

This is a nice secluded and quiet (while we were there). Campground has new bathrooms which were nice and clean. Showers had nice hot water which was refreshing after a day of biking. Campground sits directly alongside Greenbrier River Trail. Truly enjoyed the campground and will use again in the future and highly recommend to others to use.

This was such a magical hipcamp. Our dog enjoyed the open meadow and maple tree site. The hundreds of lightning bugs that come out at night were so magical! It was unreal. Super close to a creek which was amazing to fall asleep to and it’s very close to the swimming hole. The other sites were far enough away we had plenty of privacy. The port-a-potty has a chunk of the top of door missing, but it was actually amazing. You had a view and it didn’t get so hot in there. I vote to keep it this way haha. It was super close to the McAfee knob and dragons tooth parking lots. I would stay here again and again. Highly recommend.

I adored how primitive and secluded this site was. The sky was truly dark and the only human sounds we heard were the occasional train. The site was beautiful and I loved that we had a fire pit. It not only met my expectations but the whole place far exceeded them. I will be returning.

Absolutely gorgeous area. Very well maintained fire pit was already stocked with wood and kindling for us our first night. Outhouse was very clean an added bonus for sure. The stars were Amazing we got some awesome shots of the sky. We had our truck camper and used rocks to level out there were big ones available near by. The other vehicle in our party was hauling a 21’ overland bumper pull camper. He fit in just fine in and out. Great spot will definitely book again

This is a great, secluded spot! Brian's site had everything my dog and I needed and provided lots of privacy to enjoy the outdoors. Unfortunately it was cloudy when we were there, but I'm sure the stargazing would be amazing!

Weekend Trip to Blue Bird with Heat/AC!!
The stay was absolutely beautiful . It had everything we needed it was my boyfriends first time camping so he was nervous but staying the night here made him change his mind he loved the out doors it was just something quick & simple just to get away for the night . The bus is next to his house but the host didn’t bother us at all . He was on stand by if we needed him . Which i liked for the privacy . We just wanted the wood burning & smiling in each others faces lol . Google Maps doesn’t help you get to the bus but Apple does takes you straight to the bus only thing is we drove in the night we were to literally follow Scott’s directions to keeping left lol we thought we were going in his grass but we over thought it . Lovely stay we will definitely return back thank you .

Overview
About
The highest peak in Greenbrier State Forest, Kate’s Mountain, is named for a woman who took her kid up to the mountaintop in 1756 for protection during a battle, so you can scale this 3280-foot high peak in honor of one hardcore lady! Killer views abound, overlooking the surrounding countryside of southern West Virginia. See if you can spot the heated pool, shooting range, archery field range, or frisbees flying through the air on the disc golf course. There are cabins and campsites for you to reserve, trails to hike or bike, and great bass fishing in the Greenbrier River. Also in the vicinity of Greenbrier is the town of White Sulphur Springs, home to the birthplace of American golf. This resort is well-known as a luxury hotel, but was revealed in the 1990s to be a former Cold War bunker! Set up as an emergency relocation center to house all members of Congress in the event of a nuclear attack, it’s now open for history buffs and the curious to snoop around.
When to go
The ideal time to visit Greenbrier State Forest is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its peak. Summer offers a full bloom of activities, though it can be quite busy. Winters are less crowded but prepare for chilly conditions.

- Check the weather forecast and dress appropriately for seasonal changes.
- Be aware of park hours, typically from 8:30am to 5pm, and plan your visit accordingly.
