Get away from it all when you stay under the stars. Relax in one of the most gorgeous settings around, right at the "North Fork" of Sweet Springs Creek, & just below in direct site of the Falls & Upper Cascades! Here, you are surrounded by mountains, a waterfall, an undulating creek, picturesque cattails, cascades. Here, you really are in the middle of the magic. What else could you ask for in a campsite?

The space
*After April 1, 2025, this site will no longer allow vehicle access to the site, as was the case in the past. Due to catastrophic road damage from recent flooding, all guests booking after this date must park at the top of the Falls area, and walk down to the site, this is about a 5-minute hike. This is not ideal for guests with mobility issues, or those bringing lots of camping gear. Please book Top of the Rock or The Cattails if you require direct vehicle access to your campsite. We provide a lot of camping essentials so you do not need to bring much.

Ever wondered what it would be like to camp out in a field that feels like a pristine golf course set in what feels like a National Park?. You'll be amazed at not only the high-end nature of your surroundings, but also at the diversity of your surroundings: picturesque mountains, clear blue creek water, waterfalls & cascades, as well as fantastic wildlife & views of the Beaver Preserve. This site is REALLY in the middle of it all. Every site on the Property has its unique qualities, & a certain theme in its surroundings, but the location for Sweet Springs really is in a league of its own. Come stay here & you'll see why. This site is located below the Falls, next to the Creek, and is situated next to a gorgeous, gigantic Osage Orange tree, under which you'll find the picnic table, & plenty of shade. You are also steps away from our creek bridge.

Site is heated well by propane heat in the winter. 1 grill bottle of propane included. Additional propane for purchase: $30/bottle.

No running water or electricity directly at this site. Communal restroom, shower & kitchen are a short walk away. Site does come with a portable potty with disposable "wag" bags.

Guest access
This site is one of 7 sites operated by Beaverdam Falls. Sweet Springs is 1 of 3 canvas wall tents on the Property. This preserve is private and an exclusive property only for guests who have reserved any of our sites, & there may be other campers, fly fishers, or activity going on elsewhere by the Falls or on the land, as we are an active nature preserve. Most guests never see each other, nor are campsites visible from each other, but you do not have complete private control over the property through your reservation. Your booking only ensures that you have your site reserved. The property is open only to reserved guests, so there are no crowds.

Other things to note
This site is a former Tentrr Signature site that we had actively listed online for 4-years. This site had nearly 100 5-star reviews during that time. Tentrr has folded as a company, so we now control the listing ourselves on Airbnb.

Please visit our site under our name, Beaverdam Falls, to peruse Property information, & to visit our FAQs Section.

My work: French Teacher/Entrepreneur
Speaks English and French
Having worked in many areas, I have much of my work experience & time in the service industry: managing at the restaurant level, and in events, & even at wineries as well. Although I love the service industry, my passion has always been teaching. But, I love working in nature, managing natural land, & restoring cars in my spare time. Most recently, I taught French in public schools, managed online learning programs in Richmond Public Schools, & I have my BA in French & Theatre, & my MA in French Literature from UVA. Born & raised in Florida, Melbourne/Ocala are both my home towns, but the Virginia’s have my heart! After finishing my MA & teaching French as an instructor at UVA, I ventured into ecotourism, camping & property/land management for my family properties. Currently, I operate an ecotourism business at our ranch & nature preserve, Beaverdam Falls in Alleghany County, Virginia. We operate glampsites through Tentrr, Airbnb rentals, among other things, & manage other lands & homes in WV and FL. I’m fortunate to do what I love, & to be in the great outdoors. We do not discriminate, & welcome ALL!
