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!

Whip up meals with our charcoal grill, griddle, or two-burner stove—inside or out. You’ll find dishes, utensils, seasonings, blankets, board games, and even complimentary coffee (best enjoyed with a curious chicken nearby).
Nestled on our 6-acre homestead, this peaceful escape offers sunrise views, star-filled skies, and a fire pit, swing, and table for relaxing outdoors.
Want more adventure? We’re just 15 minutes from Williamsburg. We are also fortunate enough to have many parks and outdoor activities to choose from. We're only 12 minutes from York River State Park, which has a gorgeous river shoreline. The York River is known for its rare and delicate environment, where freshwater and saltwater meet to create a habitat rich in marine and plant life. You can hike, bike, kayak, raft, and more. They even hold classes on fossils!🦴
You can also meet our goats and geese, and we sometimes have fresh eggs for sale—just ask! 🐐🥚
All you have to bring is yourself (well and maybe some snacks)!

It gives me much satisfaction in working to clean up this land. I appreciate your support by staying here, and I look forward to the opportunity to offer memories that can be remembered with fondness. While staying here, you may use my bathroom in my house if you need. I recommend bringing all the things you would bring if you were camping in the woods far from society. However, I do have a tent for two, including mattress pads and sleeping bags you may use. Otherwise, this is a relatively primative site (for now 😉).

Enjoy rustic charm with a splash of modern comfort in our cheerfully renovated RV—still rocking its 1999 disguise on the outside, but don’t be fooled! Inside, it’s glamping magic: bright, cozy, and fully stocked with all the essentials (and then some).
Whip up meals with our charcoal grill, griddle, or two-burner stove—inside or out. You’ll find dishes, utensils, seasonings, blankets, board games, and even complimentary coffee (best enjoyed with a curious chicken nearby).
Nestled on our 6-acre homestead, this peaceful escape offers sunrise views, star-filled skies, and a fire pit, swing, and table for relaxing outdoors.
Want more adventure? We’re just 15 minutes from Williamsburg. We are also fortunate enough to have many parks and outdoor activities to choose from. We're only 12 minutes from York River State Park, which has a gorgeous river shoreline. The York River is known for its rare and delicate environment, where freshwater and saltwater meet to create a habitat rich in marine and plant life. You can hike, bike, kayak, raft, and more. They even hold classes on fossils!🦴
You can also meet our goats and geese, and we sometimes have fresh eggs for sale—just ask! 🐐🥚
All you have to bring is yourself (well and maybe some snacks)!

It gives me much satisfaction in working to clean up this land. I appreciate your support by staying here, and I look forward to the opportunity to offer memories that can be remembered with fondness. While staying here, you may use my bathroom in my house if you need. I recommend bringing all the things you would bring if you were camping in the woods far from society. However, I do have a tent for two, including mattress pads and sleeping bags you may use. Otherwise, this is a relatively primative site (for now 😉).

Weekend Trip to Blanchard Farm
My favorite part of the property was the fun little things to do. Rope swings, hammocks, hunting stand to climb. It was fun to be walking around the woods and come across random little things. The yurt sites were very private and provided your own space for relaxing. I was the only one camping this weekend, but they still seem spaced out enough to feel secluded. Definitely more space than what is given between lots at a state park.
Josh and his wife were both very kind and helpful. I have a hard time packing too much around due to health issues, and Josh was kind enough to put me in the closest yurt and help me with the firewood I purchased. The yurt is spacious and gives you a home away from home feel while still being in the outdoors and leaving things like electricity away. I will definitely be back! Thank you so much for such a great trip.

We enjoyed the property and all of the amenities in the cabin. We stayed on a cold weekend and were able to cook hot food and use the heater to stay warm while we watched movies. We enjoyed feeling secluded but also able to reach Ian at anytime.

Stargazer tiny cabin at the Guinea Farm was perfect for me and my pup. Ian was the perfect host and made us feel so welcome. Meeting the chickens and guineas was a lot of fun and the beach nearby was breathtaking. We explored the area, had a few campfires, and relaxed. Even the rainstorm was amazing while inside Stargazer!!! The cabin was super cool. We will be returning! Just a quick note that did not detract from the experience at all - we did encounter some hunting dogs loose at the beach hunting a deer. Its obviously hunting season and off the location, just good to note. We loved our trip here and valued meeting Ian and learning about his much loved birds, clearly living in paradise. Definitely worth a visit! The cabin itself was extremely clean and well stocked. The property was fun to explore, even has corn hole and axe throwing!

I’m a returning camper. Last time I went to Trilogy. Love this whole property. 2WD accessible. I was greeted by the host Ian who promptly brought me a huge pile of firewood. Campsite has a nice picnic table and nice fire ring with swivel cooking grate.
The treehouse features a deck with a tent for anyone who needs it. The treehouse also has a griddle and grill running off a propane tank.
Inside the treehouse has bar stools and a bar top dining area. It also has L-shaped benches on the back wall and a foldable table. There is a projector with Roku stick for streaming off of their WiFi. Also for fun there is a Nintendo 64 with 3 games including Mario Kart 64. All electrical components run off a battery powered by solar. There are USB-A ports in various area for your convenience. Additionally there are cots and camping chairs provided.
I had a great time and felt very safe on the site. I really got to relive some childhood memories sleeping in a treehouse and playing video games. I highly recommend.
If sleeping in the provided tent isn’t your thing or you have brought your own, there are countless areas surrounding the treehouse and an adjacent field with ample room 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

We had a wonderful stay at the Stargazer tiny cabin. It was incredibly cozy, warm and clean. The cabin had every amenity we needed, and Ian provided clear instructions for everything. He responded to all of our requests quickly and kindly, which made our stay even better.
One of the highlights was looking up at the stars at night. It was absolutely fantastic! Aaron’s Beach and Haven Beach were only 3–5 minutes away, and we had the best time there with our dog.
This was truly one of our best stays, and I strongly recommend Ian’s place. We will definitely be back!

Went camping as a group and couldn’t have asked for a better weekend. Ian was absolutely amazing to meet. He let us explore the property, meet all his different birds (even got to see one in the cutest little hat), and gave us eggs for breakfast! The property is beautiful, with wonderful beaches nearby, and beautiful views of the night sky. We were even lucky enough to watch shooting stars while there. Couldn’t recommend Ian or this property enough. We will definitely be returning and camping at the other sites he offers!

This is our second time at Ian's hipcamp and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. The stargazer cabin was lovely and definitely a nice glamping experience. We didn't have to bring anything with us other than toys for the kids and food to feed ourselves. We brought my 60+ MIL and she loved that there was a composting toilet 😅 Being around the birds was so fun and we went to the little Haven Beach nearby and had a wonderful time- it was a perfect beach for young kids with lots of shells, fun rocks, and calm waters.

Ian was very kind and helpful! My sister and I brought our brood of younger kids (age 3-13) and they loved it as much as we did and I'm positive our older ones would have. There's quite a few chickens with fun back stories. My oldest daughter wanted to steal Zed the zombie chicken. There was very little light pollution so we were able to lay out on our sleeping backs in an open field and watch a meteor shower, my kids and I actually fell asleep out there because it is so peaceful. We stayed at the treehouse, so cool! It slept 8 comfortably. Ian showed me the heated cabin in case we wanted to visit later this season, we probably will. There was a griddle and fire pit, we used both for cooking. The small town less than a 10 minute drive has every forgotten item one could need. Ian's is a wonderful place to be! Guinea zoomies are about as cute as a dogs. He also had two very sweet dogs.

Wonderful spot! Beautiful area and the variety of Ian's birds added a whole other level to the experience. Spent less than 20hrs there but between visiting the secluded Adams Beach at sunset, making a campfire outside the treehouse, and laying out in the field under the stars made it feel like several totally unique and great experiences. We hit up the other slightly more developed (though still very secluded) beach on the way out which was a perfect finishing touch.
Ian is awesome and a great host and communicator. It'd be fun to have a few more people out next time we stay.

Let me first start by giving the due credit to the host directly. Ian was incredible. He stayed in touch throughout the duration of the trip. Making sure we knew about all available amenities and ensuring we got the absolute most out of our stay. Communication was certainly a 10 out of 10. Not to mention he was just a super cool dude, he let me know our group could come see his various birds (which was a tremendous hit with the kids, and the adults for that matter) I stayed at camp with our dogs but the rest of my group met him personally and had nothing but good things to say about him. He really did set the expectation for what the best host possible could be.
Now onto the campsite itself. The Wisteria Treehouse was incredible. It was just the coolest how it looks and is set up. From the creature comforts inside it- a charging station, n64(as a 90's kid i saw it and thought, HOW COOL IS THAT. he even has Mario cart for it), projector, seating, a cool bar style seating arrangement to look out, to the lights strewn around the tree house. It was beautiful during the day, gorgeous at night. The bell tent very comfortably fit my family of 4 and two dogs. The layout of the site was perfect. Plenty of room for our groups kids to run and safely play. The little field next to the tree house made for the creation of some amazing core memories when night fell and the moon lit everything up for our group. There's so much more and it's a 100% guarantee we'll be back.
