This campsite offers a serene escape with a picturesque stream, making it ideal for families and nature lovers alike. While the sites offer some privacy, they are closer together than some visitors expect, so it might be worth booking multiple sites for larger groups. The host, Chris, is praised for being accommodating and helpful. The bathhouse is well-maintained but might require some patience during peak times due to limited facilities.
This site was great! I camped out of the back of my truck and got to watch the creek and the sun go down. The property is beautiful, great little woods and green grass and a very clean bath house. Very tranquil little slice of VA with a beautiful view of the mountains. Recommend.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the campsite, particularly the stunning views it offered. However, I believe the directions to the site could be improved by adding more visible signage. On a positive note, the shower facilities were excellent—clean and well-maintained, which made for a very comfortable experience.
We arrived at Stoney Creek which is part Shenandoah valley not long after a snowfall which was followed by rain which froze as the temperature dropped to the low 20s. Roads in this secluded area were not fully plowed so we were happy to settle down for the evening and get cozy in our minivan camper. Chris, our host , was very helpful, making sure all went well with us .
The bathroom has a shower, a washer and dryer and best of all, heat ! There's a gas station/convience store just down the street. There was phone service (T-Mobile) along with Internet which is rare in the mountains in the middle of nowhere.
Chris, our host, lives close by and was extremely accommodating. We hope to visit again in warmer weather because the area is breathtakingly beautiful with magnificent vistas of mountain peaks and expansive valleys.
here on a solo trip. Chris greeted when I checked in late at night and graciously showed me the amenities. clean bathroom, hot shower, and a picnic table. site was private and quiet. the site was scenic left and right - a lovely brook and a view of the mountain. definitely one of my remarkable hipcamp finds!
The campers are nice and well placed. Chris goes all out to make sure you have everything. Bath house is a little far away but thats ok. It is worth the trip.
