Tucked away in Rockfish Gap in the beautiful Nelson County...

... is a hidden gem of a brewery and campground that will delight outdoor enthusiasts and beer drinkers of all kinds.

If you follow Virginia's local craft beer scene, you've likely heard of Devil's Backbone.

The Roseland location is much larger and offers an incredible array of brews and food from which to choose.

Whether you prefer light beer or hefty IPAs, you're bound to find something you enjoy here.

Of course, you don't need to be a beer drinker to enjoy the offerings at Devil's Backbone.

Just look at this delightful plate of fish and chips!

Truly, though, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

When we visited, we loved sampling the soft pretzel and beer cheese. It was an instant hit!

And keep your eye out for seasonal offerings. Their Oktoberfest beer is a real crowd-pleaser!

Another thing that sets Devil's Backbone Basecamp apart...

...is the option to stay the night at their on-site campground. Yep. We said this is a brewery campground in Virginia!

The spacious campground features 25 full RV hookup sites, 22 standard non-electric sites, and 24 primitive tent sites.

The campground is convenient too. Devil's Backbone Basecamp is just five miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Appalachian Trail. In fact, in an effort to support outdoor recreation, camping for Appalachian Trail thru-hikers is free for one night.

So the next time you're planning an outdoor getaway in the Virginia mountains...

...you might consider stopping over for a local brew and a night under the stars at Devil's Backbone Basecamp.
