Squirrel Hollow Road Camping

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Hikers and dispersed camping enthusiasts heading into George Washington National Forest will find Squirrel Hollow Road Camping less than a mile from the paved highway, with around five drive-in sites set just off the road. Sites are large enough for two vehicles or a small teardrop trailer. No pets are allowed. Weekday visits tend to be quiet, though some logging traffic moves through the area. No water or toilets on site, so everything must be hauled in and packed out. Cell service is available. Campers wanting a developed alternative can check Squirrel Gap Rd., located close by, or browse campgrounds around George Washington National Forest for more options in the region.

Spacious sites

Large campsites and relatively quite. We took two vehicles and found several suitable sites. Traffic was light with one pickup overnight and a small convoy of motorcycles the next morning

Convenient off the road boondocking

Sites are located less than a mile from the paved highway. We found 5 spots just off the road. All were easily accessible by cat or with a small teardrop trailer.

True boondocking, haul it in, pack it out. Evidence of a cat hole in the site we picked

Sites were quiet at night. Some traffic related to logging activity. Looks like a popular weekend camp spot for locals.

We camped during the week and had nobody else camping on weekdays.
