What a wonderful find in the heart of Appalachia! The Kennedys made sure I knew how to navigate to their property beforehand because they were worried I wouldn’t have service. When I arrived, they had already started a fire at my site and helped me unload car and set up camp. Their hospitality was off the charts and their property is a hidden gem. There even was a baby calf born while I was there. The views, farm fresh eggs, and hot shower next to my campsite easily made this the best hipcamp I have stayed at—the Kennedy Farm is a must visit and a site to see all in itself!

#6 Stargazer's Paradise
Daniel's farm is charming & full of fascinating history! We originally booked site #6, but our late arrival time meant that site #1 was the best option for his parents, Rita & Britt, to recieve us. They had the fire ring set up with dry wood, but snow kept us from making a morning fire so Britt & Rita made us a warm breakfast 💜 The tour of the farm was lovely (definitely would not have taken my 2 wheel drive to site 6 after going up in a 4-wheel drive with her, though). I will absolutely stay here again in the summer for stargazing and the welcoming hosts who know and care about the land they steward.

#7 The Walnut Grove - Remote
Amazing views with tons of privacy. We really enjoyed our stay up on the hill. Quiet nights around the campfire, very relaxing.

#7 The Walnut Grove - Remote
Great place to camp with great views. Friendly hosts supplied wood, firestarter, and eggs. They also provided a table and chairs, which we weren’t expecting. Unfortunately we didn’t have a chance to avail ourselves of their kayaks, but they were available for our use, and the hosts even offered us free transport to/from the boat launch.
We ended up staying in the main site near the barn (I think it’s labeled site #1) for convenience since we were the only guests there. The big grassy meadows can get hot in the sun, but there are good breezes up on the top of the hills, many trees around for shade (or for hanging an additional shade canopy like we did), and nice forested parts right nearby that you can walk through that are much cooler. The nearby porta-potty was very clean and convenient, and the water hose/sink was also not far. Our site was also near the barn porch, which is nice for watching the sunset or escaping the rain. The shed with the showers is a bit farther from where we were (5–10 min somewhat steep walk), but the water heater there provided good showers (not crazy hot, but the warm water kept coming consistently even throughout long showers), and there was one outlet where we could charge a phone.
Cleveland VA is located between about 45 minutes and 1.5 hours from a lot of the places we were interested in like the Great Channels trailhead, the Devil’s Bathtub, and Abingdon and Damascus. When planning your routes from the “center” of Cleveland, budget an extra

#6 Stargazer's Paradise
Really beautiful property and friendly animals (baby goats especially)!! Helpful hosts—the gravel road is tricky but the host drove it up for me and my 2WD made it up no problem.

We were joyfully greeted by our hosts and escorted to our site on top of their gorgeous mountain ! Words and pictures don’t do it Justice ! Beautiful scenery! Cattle and donkeys in the near by fields. Shower house with hot water. And a clean cedar chip out house. We slept so well with only sounds of birds and critters ! We hiked the mountain top to see the old homestead and barns still standing . On the way down the next day the black sheep greeted us. It was a wonderful place to camp. We look forward to coming back!
