Chickahominy WMA Dispersed off Eagles Nest Road

Chickahominy Wildlife Management Area stretches across 5,200 acres of tidal-plain hardwood and pine forest in Charles City County, Virginia, where wooded bluffs give way to marshy creek corridors near the Chickahominy River. Primitive camping along Eagles Nest Road sits quietly inside this working wildlife area — reached by a winding gravel road that rewards patience and is easiest to navigate in daylight. A free camping authorization through Virginia DWR's online system is required before you arrive, and campers must stay at least 300 feet from the boat ramp.
