Camping Rules 

Our philosophy is "leave only foot prints, take only memories". As most of you know, the City of Fredericksburg owns most of the land along the River, especially the areas used for camping. This continued privilege is in your hands. Violations of the following laws could bring about NO CAMPING on the River. The key is bring back your own trash as well as trash you find along the way. (Please don't take anything in glass containers)AND BURY YOUR NATURE CALLS ALONG WITH THE TOILET PAPER. The following is a very short version of the laws governing the river and its banks.

 NO SHOOTING OF FIREARMS
  NO CUTTING OF LIVING TREES OR VEGETATION
  HUMAN EXCREMENT & TOILET PAPER MUST BE BURIED
  BRING BACK ALL TRASH (We provide designated recycling containers at the landing)
  NO FIREWORKS
  NO ALL TERRAIN VEHICLES

ATV's are expressly prohibited on City owned property. What properties does the city own? About 98% of all land on both sides of the river from Eleys Ford to Clore Bros (14 miles) and from the camp site at Deep Run on the Rappahannock River to Clore Bros (11 miles) Obviously this area covers just about all of the camp sites. Please try to pin point ATV activity along the river as well as tree cutting and let us know about it so we can pass this on to the proper people.

The city's land manager is monitoring campsites and river accesses on a regular basis and is determined to bring to justice, violators of these laws

CAMP TRASH
We DO NOT provide a camp site trash pick up service. On a few occasions in the past few years, when we happened to stop in a camp site to drop off canoes and found a group breaking camp, we relieved them of their bagged garbage. This act of generosity was apparently misunderstood as a service that we provide, and bagged trash was left in the camp site. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR RETURNING ALL TRASH YOU TAKE ON THE RIVER AND HOPEFULLY TRASH YOU MAY FIND ALONG THE WAY.
Sorry for the communication problem.
