I really enjoyed my time at Camp McFender! The trails were great and the Bent Creek was amazing to listen to while around the campfire and going to sleep for the night. The compost toilet/outhouse was very well taken care of.
Russ was very friendly and even gave me a little goody bag when I arrived! I'll definitely be back.

Had a great time tent camping. The directions were clear and the site was great. Russ met with us after arriving to introduce himself and gave us the lay of the land. There are nice trials near the sites that provide great hike's. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

what a wonderful camping location!!! The stream was great to listen to at night, there were plenty of great spots to camp for our whole group (8 of us), including off-road campers (small ones) and a couple of trucks with overhead tents. There were plenty of tent sites along the stream and we are far enough away from the main roads to have a peaceful camping experience!! There was even a Johnny house up from the campsites available, if needed. Very accommodating hosts as well Thanks for a wonderful place to have a weekend getaway!!

This campsite was amazing for the whole family adults, kids, and dog had a blast. We were able to play in the creek, with a zip line during the day and listen to it run at night while we sat around a camp fire. Russ was an amazing host and we couldn’t ask for better we would definitely come back.

AHMAZING SPACE! We absolutely loved it! We will be back! We were so lucky to be the only campers so we had the whole place to ourselves! BTW if you are into mountain biking DEFINITELY take your bike! He has awesome trails to walk or ride !! We actually exhausted the dogs. The hosts clearly have an awesome sense of humor, be sure to look for the gnomes! Side note: if you’re not from VA please note early April can be “iffy” camping but we still absolutely loved it! (We are from VA so we expected some weather challenges lol.) We absolutely highly recommend this host and his property … we can’t say enough how much we loved the land. We have used the app before and so far this is our absolute favorite spot!
