Some places are just different.

Set along the banks of the New River—one of the oldest rivers in the world—our riverfront safari tents offer a chance to slow down, unplug, and experience the New River Valley the way generations of visitors have for decades.

Wake up to mist rising off the water. Spend the afternoon floating downstream, fishing for smallmouth bass, or relaxing in the shade as the river drifts by. In the evening, gather on your private deck, watch the sunset paint the mountains, and fall asleep to the sounds of the river just outside your tent.

Unlike traditional camping, everything is ready when you arrive. Comfortable beds, fresh linens, electricity, heating, air conditioning, and a furnished riverfront deck allow you to enjoy the outdoors without sacrificing comfort.

Located at New River Junction in Blacksburg, Virginia, our safari tents place you directly on the river while keeping you close to Virginia Tech, local restaurants, hiking trails, and everything that makes the New River Valley special.

Whether you're planning a romantic getaway, family adventure, fishing trip, or Virginia Tech weekend, you'll discover why guests have been returning to New River Junction for generations.

Cancellation Policy: One hundred percent (100.00%) of the total booking charges (less $20.00 cancellation fee) will be refunded if the cancellation is made more than 5 days prior to the arrival date of the reservation. For cancellations made within 5 days prior to the arrival date, no refund will be issued.
