Situated at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and bordering the Jefferson National Forest, Thunder BRidge has scenic, large, private campsites in the woods for those who want to experience camping at its finest. Many of the sites border Elk Creek. Our 100 acres was originally a CCC camp, then a boys’ juvenile detention center and Big Brothers’/Big Sisters’ camp. All within a short driving distance are the Natural Bridge, wineries, breweries, Natural Bridge Zoo, Safari Park, Dinosaur Kingdom, Appalachian Trail, Blue Ridge Parkway, James River, historic Lexington, Devil’s Marbleyard, Glenwood Horse Trail. We've decided to keep the cabin open for the winter months (Dec. through March) but the bath house will not be open unless we have unseasonably warm temperatures. There will be outhouses for your use and we can provide drinking water if you need it.Situated at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains and bordering the Jefferson National Forest, Thunder BRidge Cabin 1 has a very large lot which could accommodate additional tents for an additional fee. The cabin has no electric so bring lanterns and flashlights. If you need water you will have to go to the pavilion, which is a short walk or drive away. If you're not out seeing the nearby sites, you're going to want to spend your time relaxing on the front porch. You'll need to bring your own sleeping bag, sheets and pillows. Our 100 acres was originally a camp built by the Civilian Conservation Corp in the '30s and early '40s, then a boys' juvenile detention center and Big Brothers'/Big sisters' camp, which closed in 2009. You're welcome to explore the property and get a feel for the history of the place. We'd like to share the camp with others and see it come back to life. Within a short driving distance are the Natural Bridge, wineries, breweries, Natural Bridge Zoo, Safari Park, Dinosaur Kingdom, Appalachian Trail, Blue Ridge Parkway, James River, historic Lexington, Devils Marbleyard, Glenwood Horse Trail, swimming holes, etc. We have river access 2 miles up the road if you'd like to fish or put your kayak or canoe in. Truly, there's something nearby for everyone. We'd be happy to give you recommendations of things to see and do.

Thunder BRidge Cabin 1

Cabin of dreams!

A beautiful spot with great amenities for basic camping! The cabin is spacious and clean! A handy fire pit area and yard for activities. There is a creek just a short walk away with very clear water. The outhouses are impeccable and very convenient. Adam was a wonderful host and gave very helpful directions for finding the place since service can be spotty before linking to WiFi.

Thunder BRidge Cabin 1

Perfect spot to disconnect for the weekend. Very large lot and room to run around and explore. Great find! Bathhouse was a bonus to have as well. Check in went smoothly and we got settled in with zero issues.

Beautiful rustic cabin, very private. Hot showers in the campground were great! The campground is also close to many hiking trailheads and the A.T.

Family Cabin trip

The cabin was great! Our first cabin trip with our newborn son - Adam went the extra mile to provide enough firewood for the cold nights so we didn’t have to worry about the little man staying warm. Great family get away for those that don’t mind roughing it but like 4 walls and a bed. We will definitely be coming back!
