About
Bolar Mountain Volunteer Village is a U.S. Forest Service facility reserved exclusively for volunteers working at the James River and Warm Springs Ranger District in the George Washington National Forest. This is not a public campground and is not open to recreational campers. The facility provides volunteer workers with sites that include water and electric hookups, as well as laundry and shower facilities. No fees are charged because this is volunteer worker housing rather than a fee campground. Public campers seeking to camp in this area should instead visit the nearby Bolar Mountain Recreation Area on Lake Moomaw, which offers 127 campsites for public use across multiple campground loops.
Directions
From Covington, take US-220 North to VA-39 and turn left. Take VA-39 to VA-600 (Bolars Draft Road) and turn left. Continue to the campground and turn right on Twin Ridge Drive.
