In a remote valley, along the banks of Craig's Creek, just north of Roanoke VA, the property includes mature hardwood forest, pasture, and an 1830s log cabin where we live. We love to share this special place with visitors, and have some basic amenities for campers. The campsites are at the edge of a large pasture and just a few steps from Craig Creek and our big swimmin' hole. Totally secluded in a remote valley - no houses or roads in sight (but our cabin is a short walk through the woods if you need something), no cell service for most providers, but within a short drive of Roanoke and Blacksburg, and countless outdoor recreation opportunities.

Bell Tent at Cedar Grove

We had a lovely time camping at Ned's site! The tent was clean and comfortable, and was nestled in a valley between two beautiful mountains. We had a wonderful time exploring the property and the surrounding area. We didn't bring our dog, but we found ourselves remarking that she would have been easy to bring. We'd love to be back and would definitely recommend to a friend.

Great camping spot

Great camping spot! Ned and Alexis were great hosts - super responsive and friendly. We came with pups and it was ideal as you are situated some distance from the other two sites. Nice little creek nearby that you can swim in. site is close to hiking trails - we did the Dragonstooth Trail and loved it.

The perfect campsite

Ned and Alexis’ property was immaculately maintained with little homey touches such as hanging lights to really bring out the aesthetic of the campsite. The bathroom facilities were clean and well maintained and the groundskeeper was very friendly and helpful with any questions we had. 100/10 highly recommend staying here if you plan to camp out.

Creekside Woods

Private depending on other campers

This was our second visit, overall it was great. It’s serene and secluded, Ned and the other hosts are all super friendly and their pups are sweet. We were definitely let down due to the noise level in the very early morning hours, there was a group on the hill and they chopped wood each morning at the crack of dawn. It was disappointing because we come to such a secluded place to enjoy waking up to the sounds of nature, not to wake up to the sounds of wood being chopped by people who either don’t understand or don’t care about camping etiquette. Wood can be chopped at any other point during the day. It is especially frustrating when there is also pre-chopped wood available by the hosts.

Walnut Bottom

Nice campsite, the location under the giant walnut tree and near a creek was lovely. There were some small pieces of trash around the edges of the site, and a large pile of dog poop. The picnic table was on it's last legs. There were portapotties within an easy walk. No water for washing camp dishes or refilling bottles, which was a real bummer.
