Caldwell Fields Group Campground is actually two separate fields adjacent to each other. George and Milton, each provide group camping and can be reserved together or separately. They are great for groups who prefer old-fashioned, rustic camping who require few amenities.
Craig Creek meanders along the edge of the fields where visitors can enjoy splashing and relaxing in its cool waters. The creek is also stocked with trout, providing good fishing opportunities for visitors.
Caldwell Fields provides two fields that may be rented separately or together. Each field can accommodate a group of 50 or less people with space for up to 20 vehicles. Groups may choose to rent them together accommodating a group of up to 100 people and 40 vehicles total. Each field has an entrance gate, and they share a vault toilet. There is no potable water, no hookups and no trash collection. State Highway 621 to Caldwell Fields is unpaved.
Located in a narrow valley and flanked by National Forest lands, the two large grassy fields are bordered by large shade trees.
Caldwell Fields is located 20 minutes from Blacksburg, VA, home of the Virginia Tech Hokies.
From Blacksburg (junction of North Main Street and US 460), follow US 460 west for 2.8 miles. Turn right on Craig Creek Road (SR 621), go 8.8 miles. Road turns to gravel after 4 miles. Caldwell Fields are on the right.
This is merely a parking lot.
Very remote,no cell phone service. I got a very weird vibe here. Only my opinion. I did not stay..
Great place to get away from the cellphone. Restroom was clean. Grass was a little high, but near a creek.
This is a good spot to plan a group Camp event or other outdoor field event for large groups of people. However not really enough picnic tables. One thing that's really nice about the site is the creek that is so close. Your kids can just go play in the CREEK.
Have to call rangers to make arrangements to camp here, but gives off a very uneasy feeling. No cell service. Nice to pull over, have a picnic, play in the creek a bit, but I wouldn't camp here🧐and I camp EVERYWHERE. Gives the "ut'oh" feeling🤷♀️
