Beer and nature come together here at Devils Backbones Camp. We’re tucked in the Rockfish Valley in the Blue Ridge Mountains, five miles from the Appalachian Trail and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Our forested paradise is open year round. Here you’ll find 71-acres of campground, including 25 full RV hookup sites, 22 standard non-electric sites, and 24 primitive tent sites (and yes, there’s a 24/7 bath house, too). Our Basecamp Brewpub is open 7 days a week. Please visit our website for up-to-date hours and events.

Spacious wooded site with firepit😊
Spacious campsite with trees for hammocks and tarps. Showers and bathrooms were clean and just a short walk from the campsite. We enjoyed live music at the distillery and dinner one night at the brewpub. The Hipcamp team was very responsive. We’ll definitely be back!

Everything you need plus beer
Excellent group camping set up. Only one picnic table so if you have eight people I would suggest bringing another table to assist with food prep. Camp fire was perfect and firewood was helpful. Easy walk to restaurant and bar but not too noisy at night. A worthwhile experience, rain or shine.

I had an awesome time here with my pals. The campsite is tucked away in the trees just on the other side of the grassy meadow. Brewery and bath house is about a 5-10min walk from the site.

Group Site 105
The site felt nice and remote. All 5 of the Hipcamp sites are a little separate from the rest of the campground, and 105 is at the end. It was easy to locate, and it was fun to be able to go over to the brewpub for happy hour. There is a mix of sun and shade at the site, which was perfect for tent placement and stargazing. The only caveat--and I wouldn't say drawback, just something to consider when planning--is that it's also the farthest site from trash and the bath house. We didn't bring a giant water jug for washing dishes, so we ended up driving our dirty dishes to the pump at the bathhouse once a day. You also have a line of sight to the other Hipcamp sites, but that's pretty standard for campgrounds. No one else was there when we were there Monday - Wednesday.

Spectacular wooded lots
The group sites 100, 101, were beautiful, wooded lots with lots of space. A field very close by made it a perfect spot for family camping with children.
