Willville Bike Camp — Attraction in Virginia

WillVille is one of those wild places you'll only find because you saw or heard someone talking about it. In this case, it's usually in the context of "you really need to check it out"

Will Beers is a super nice guy, and the facility, while old it seems, is fairly well kept. Plenty of room for camping, water and power poles spread out, decent tree coverage if you want shade, and little cabins if you aren't keen on tenting it. If you need basic supplies, there's a gas station/market right up the road where the ramps are for the Blueridge PkWy.

The people our group met while we were there was part of the experience too. It's a fun mix of regulars it seems, and then people as far away as Germany passing through on their own wild trips.

The place makes an excellent launching point to hit any number of super fun paved and dirt roads in the area.

We hadn't even been back for a week when one of my riding buddies suggested we go the 5hr trip the following...

I would absolutely recommend anyone stay here. I camped here last week and I was coming back from a 2000 mile trip. My back tire had almost no tread left. A friend of the owner actually gave me a used tire free of charge (just enough tread to get me home), and the owner helped me swap it out. He's got a little shed/work area. Super nice guy. I owe them both a case of beer.

As for the campground itself, the field is beautiful. There's a small creek running in the back. I hung my hammock right next to it, and if it wasn't thunderstorming, I would have fallen asleep to it. The owner also warned me of a tornado watch in the area (thankfully no tornadoes happened). He looks out for his tenants.

There's a couple of nice dogs that live outside on the property. They're pretty friendly, though.

All in all, I'll definitely be coming back here later this year when I pass...

You don't hear the word, 'mellow' used very often to describe the mood or ambience of a place, but mellow it is. Willville is one of those places most people will never experience, because they don't ride motorcycles and camp. Owned and managed by the unflappable Will, Willville provides alll the comforts and companionship a motorcyclist could need. This place is neat and clean, the bathroom immaculate and there's always hot water. There's a spacious area for tent camping as well as bunkhouse and cabin. There a large common pavillion with tables and a grill that can handle a large group, but most of the time, it's the porch by the coffee maker where folks gather. In season, show up anytime and use the honor system to register. And don't worry the dogs...
