I started purchasing land in 1984 to create a forest animal wildlife preserve. After retiring from my construction business in New York I have returned to the New River to continue the project. I have a biology degree and raise various types of animals on the land Learn more about this land: Campsite with fire pit with river view near the double shoals . Wood available. Private, beautiful trail to river with immediate access to 60-mile long New River Trail in less than 5 minutes.Campsite with fire pit and river view near the double shoals .Private, beautiful trail to river with immediate access to 60-mile long New River Trail in less than 10 minutes walking . Inside dimensions of the covered part of the shelter are approximately 8 foot wide, 10 foot long, and around 6 feet tall. There is also a cold water only shower , and an outhouse. 2 Wheel Drive vehicles are able to access the shelter unless it is raining, or wet, then they need to park just at the top of the hill above the shelter.

Perfect!
This site was perfect! Pan has electricity running to the covered platform, as well as a sink with running water (cold only). There is an outhouse with toilet paper and a cold water shower. Both are private and both have solar motion sensor lighting to light the inside as soon as you walk up to either. I car camped so I backed up facing the river. You can hear the river rushing from the site. If you are looking for remote, it’s definitely not Alaska. However, it’s very private. The home is within sight (very limited) and sound. However, I could only really hear the river and the crickets! It also brought me comfort as a solo traveler knowing someone wasn’t too far away but it still felt remote. All-in-all, it was beautiful, well cared for and definitely worth a visit!

Absolutely amazing!!! I cannot say enough about how great this night was. I was solo with my dog heading north and stumbled upon a gem. The shelter has everything you need and all the things you don’t. Views were spectacular, even after the sun set. It’s a good walk down to the river but well worth it.

Beautiful campsite. Short hike to the river. Plenty of lighting in the shack. Also signs are very helpful with navigation to the campsite. Private location view from shack and fire pit is amazing!!!

Sweet and quiet spot… we were in bikes so getting up there was strenuous. Never saw the host … all was nice.

I had a great time even in the bad weather. The shelter stays dry even in heavy rain.
