Welcome to Sullivan's Camp Cacapon. After retiring from the US Air Force we settled down in Northern Virginia and began our second careers (as so many do). With the hustle-and-bustle of the DC area (and the dreaded I-95 corridor), we had to find a place to get away from it all. We absolutely fell in love with the Cacapon Valley and it's crystal clear, slow-moving, waters--as well as nearby Berkeley Springs with it's art scene, antique shops, spas and Apple Butter Festival. Nothing more relaxing than spending time in the mountains, fishing, kayaking, and just kicking back.
Sullivan’s Camp Cacapon is more than just a campground, it is a place where families come together and lifelong memories are made! This campground is created by our family for your family. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do! When we found this beautiful 8-acre property, we truly struck gold. Just 20 minutes from the Berkeley Springs, and in the heart of the Cacapon Valley, there is plenty of exploring to do on your next vacation to Sullivan’s Camp Cacapon.
Our campground is the perfect place to kick back for a weekend getaway or to bring the whole family together for a special event! Bring your own tent, or rent out one of our cottages! Camp Cacapon brings a new meaning to camping. You will have all of the scenic outdoor vibes here, with a touch of luxury. Whether you stay for a weekend or a week, we promise that you will come back for more Camp Cacapon fun! We created Sullivan’s Camp Cacapon so that we can share our little piece of heaven with you and your loved ones. As retirees from the US Air Force, our family spends a lot of time here and created this space to get away from the hustle-and-bustle of everyday life. We hope you join us on your next getaway!
Coming from Berkeley Springs on WV-9 W/Cacapon Rd, pass Doris’ Deli in Great Cacapon (very well stocked General Store)
¼ mile past Doris’, turn left at the Emmanuel Baptist Church on to Rock Ford Rd. At this point, reset your tripometer…as you will stay on this winding road for 4.6 miles.
After 3 miles, you will cross over a “low water bridge” (wood bridge with no rails). Keep going on Rock Ford rd, for another 1.6 miles.
There is a huge wood sign at the entry of our driveway, on the right, that says SULLIVAN’S CAMP CACAPON. Turn onto Sullivan’s Retreat Trail and follow it to the end (red roofs).
Outstanding little getaway. Clean, quiet, peaceful, and on a great stretch of river. Bathrooms are extremely clean. Camp host showed up and greeted us as soon as we arrived and made sure we knew where everything was. Will be back again.
Camp Sullivan is a hidden treasure, it’s incredibly private in a beautiful valley right next to the river. The campsite is VERY clean and well maintained, all the sites are gorgeous (definitely recommend one by the river) and the feeling of safety is huge and secure, even with no on site staff, there are cameras everywhere and the host keeps in close contact (Plus the locked gate at the entrance helps with that). Also close enough to town that if we had to run to get supplies it would be a quick trip. Truly a gem! We had zero complaints and will be back every year!
Awesome and secluded place to tent camp! This place gave me the "backcountry wilderness" experience that is not common on the East Coast. There was rain when I visited, but the tent pad area stayed dry and was well draining. There were BBQ grills available. For campfires, there was a personal as well as a group campfire pit area. I grabbed a $5 bundle of firewood on the road into the campsite. I liked that there was a locking gate into the campground. The host was very available via text and email. The hill from the parking area to the camping area is steep but clearly marked. Once you are down in the camp, it is a magical and quiet place! I really enjoyed looking at the night sky and hearing the wildlife along the creek. It was a good, secluded place to stay at while also visiting the town of Berkeley Springs and surrounding areas.
Had a fantastic trip at Sullivans Camp Cacapon! Mark was friendly and informative about the area and the site, he had everything thought out and planned before we got there which made it easy to navigate the weekend. Having clean, pleasant restrooms on site definitely added a nice touch for our group and being that we rented the pavilion with a fireplace, that saved our trip as it rained a good majority of the weekend. We would certainly recommend to anyone looking for a campground in the Great Cacapon area!
We stayed in Oct 2023 and it was phenomenal. Exactly what we were looking for. - quiet, surrounded by fall colors and with a fire pit. Everything was clean and Mark was an awesome and very helpful host. We ever saw a river otter.
