Within a 60-minute drive from the Swift Run Gap Entrance Station.
Less than 5 miles from Downtown Charlottesville and 7.5 miles from UVA lies a quiet and peaceful 3+ acre lake on 27 acres with multiple flat areas for tent camping and 2 areas for an RV. Both full and partial sun and shade can be found. Outhouse available or BYO. Multiple campfire locations, or make your own. Excellent fishing for trophy largemouth bass, crappie and bluegill or sit by the waterfall and enjoy a book or picnic. Optional: chairs, tables, propane range, charcoal grill, picnic style grill large enough for whole hogs, 10x10 shelter, 5 gallon water tanks with spigots.This site is a flat grassy space with creeks on 2 sides and the lake on the other. There is enough space for as many as 8 2-person tents and guests can enjoy 1 acre and the lake to themselves. Fire ring for campfires. Just a short walk to fishing opportunities for largemouth bass, crappie and blue gill. Pit toilet nearby or bring your own toilet.

Loved tent camping here! Ben gave great directions. A great little getaway right outside Charlottesville. Awesome fishing as well.

This was a nice and quiet spot, no traffic noise from the road and a nice lake to watch the ducks at sun set. The family was very kind and welcoming and I will definitely come back next time I’m in the Charlottesville area. Also the ground it’s self is nice and flat so very little is needed to level the camper and plenty of space.

Kicking back in Charlottesville
My first Hipcamp experience and it couldn’t have gone better!! I spent two nights on the property Ben and Sarah are wonderful hosts and the site did not disappoint. You can expect to receive a warm welcome by Ben and the happiest little boy this side of the Mississippi!! The site is very secluded and quiet leaving nothing but the wind through the trees and forest creatures to help you sleep. I use a rrt on my Jeep and was able to park without the need to level. Ben let me ride my mountain bike a bit around the property. No fishing this time but there are several spots you can setup and fish the day away! The property is so close to Charlottesville that the second day I decided to Uber to Monticello for a trail run and tour of TJs house. If your like me and actively try to avoid hotels then this is the spot. Thanks!!
