This is the one!
This Hipcamp is five stars! We stayed in Cedar Grove 1, and have our eye on Cedar Grove 2 for next time. We had four adults and each couple had an overland style trailer. The sites are huge with a picnic table, fairy solar lights, a very nice permanent grill, and an awesome fire ring. This camp has wood available for a very fair price and the bathroom area is super clean and cute. Camp 1 and 2 are the closest to the bathroom area but not too close 😄. We will be bringing a little larger group next time for sure! The host had excellent communication and reached out right away. The lake on the property looks like fun and we enjoyed a leisurely stroll along side, (until warmer months next year). We are looking forward to our return trip just one hour away from Western NoVa.

Fall Foliage
We had a lovely time camping at this location. We caught and released quite a few fish from the dock by our site, and enjoyed the beautiful fall foliage. Eric's directions were clear and easy to follow, and the fire bundles he puts together are a great value. We ended up leaving early because it was a bit too cold at night, but we plan to come back in the spring. We'd definitely recommend this site. While it was just my partner, me, and our dog, this location would easily accommodate a much larger group. Thank you, Eric!

Great time new GW Forrest.
Awesome time. Great for kids, our 5 year old had a blast trying out the different paddle boats on site and traipsing through the woods.
I was personally pleased with the wide, and well maintained fire pit. It's the worst when you show up to a site and you have to do pit maintenance before you even get started. It was a great pit to use our dutch oven / tripod cooking set up.

Returning Happy Campers
This site is awesome! I have visited twice and had a great experience both times. It's nestled in a valley with beautiful views, and we had enough kayaks/canoes for 10 of use to each have our own on the lake. The bathrooms are quite seriously the nicest, cleanest port-a-potties I've ever seen. Also, the site is only about a 15 minute drive from the entrance to Shanendoah National Park! We have already recommended the site multiple times to our friends and will definitely be going back.

Great Camping!
My family had an incredible time camping at Eric's property. We spent most of our time at the lake, fishing and paddling the provides boats and kayaks . They even had an equipment shed by the lake with life jackets for all sizes, including young children. The sites are well maintained and big enough for large gatherings. I can't wait to come back again!

Best camping spot ever!
Truly the most idyllic campsite we’ve ever experienced, and Eric is a fantastic host. Gorgeous private spot between lake and forest creek with mountain ridges all around. Incredible views and peace/quiet. Eric offers a range of well maintained kayaks and canoes as well as free fish food to attract tons of fish in the lake. Grill, fire pit with wood, and outhouse add to convenience. Can’t wait to come back!
