Primitive camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
I purchased this home with the intent to turn it into a massive play ground for kiddos and kiddos at heart. We welcome anyone that embraces the spirit of play, levity, kindness and doesn't sweat the small stuff. If you enjoy seclusion, river play, goats, donkeys and still being roughly 25 minutes equidistant between downtown Charlottesville and the nearest entry to Shenandoah National Park... this place may be for you. Park you vehicle by the house and walk down to the river. Donkeys will greet you on the way. They are very friendly, but may be skittish around new dogs, so please ensure your pups are leashed. Please note that donkeys are perimeter animals. If you dog is aggressive, this place may not be for you as the donkeys may treat the pup as a threat. If you need help carrying gear down to the river, I'd be happy to haul your gear on the UTV, provided our schedules align. Otherwise, it is a 7 minute walk to the river/campsite. Please ensure the two gates you will go through are closed so the donkeys do not get out. We also have a couple of goats and an Aussie that thinks she can heard the goats and donkeys, but they are only out if I am out with them. Kiddos 12 and under are free and should not be factored into the number of persons staying. Bring your whole brood... the more the merrier! I have two boys, ages 6 and 8, and would be happy to arrange play dates if your little ones would like that.

Absolutely loved every second staying on this property. Rega was a wonderful host- kind, helpful, and very generous with his time and energy despite being busy working on ever-improving the property for his guests. His passion for cultivating a space for “children and adult children alike” was evident, will all sorts of fun and interactive features around the property, not to mention the super friendly donkeys and goats (he’s really not kidding about those). We were there for two nights, and spent our days hiking in the Shenandoahs, paddleboarding off of Rega’s dock, and exploring the surrounding area. The location was perfect for our needs. Very fortunate to have been able to land this booking on a busy Memorial Day and would stay again in a heartbeat!

Fantastic river vibes
The spot by the river is absolutely lovely! We really enjoyed taking the paddle boards out on the water - spent the whole day on the river! Rega was a fantastic host, very communicative.

RV Parking
Excellent level and protected parking spot for our camper. A little walk down to the river where the views, goats, and donkeys are. Rega was incredibly welcoming, kind, and helpful. It’s an awesome spot and a wonderful place for kids with swings and animals, and lots of space to play. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely stay again when we’re in the area. It would be difficult for someone who has physical limitations as it’s a steep trail down to the river. Rega has an all-terrain vehicle which he uses to help people take gear down to the sites by the river and would certainly help with rides if needed. RV spot is good for small campers, we have a 16’ Scamp and it worked but anything bigger would be tough to back in.

Camp with Donkeys
Camping with donkeys
I had such a great time camping on Rega’s property with the donkeys, goats and his pup. They were all very friendly and Raga was extremely helpful and communicative. The campsite was spacious and felt private and the property was gorgeous with hammocks everywhere to enjoy.

RV Parking
Great covered structure with a flat poured concrete pad made for easy leveling & extra cover from the unexpected rain storms! Site location & structure are good for RVs max of 20' with a total trailer & tow vehicle length under 30' or things will be TIGHT for maneuvers. Host provided access to 120v power cord & potable water. The host was very helpful & gracious.

It was a lovely stay. The host was so kind, welcoming and friendly. He even helped us with our gear and took us down to the river on his gator (which my kids loved!) We'll definitely go back!
