Discover Blacksburg RV rentals for memorable road trips

Home of Virginia Tech University, Blacksburg is a midsize college town tucked in the Appalachian foothills, with lush scenery and gently rolling terrain. Roanoke is less than an hour’s drive away. Named in honor of William Black, the town was founded in 1798 on a 38-acre lot he platted into 16 squares and deeded to the town trustees. His brother’s land made up the core of the Virginia Tech campus while another early settler's farm also formed the university grounds.

On The Fringes of Appalachia

You don't need to leave town to soak up the verdant scenery and get a good workout. Several paved walking and biking trails take you through the gently rolling landscape of Blacksburg. Close to downtown, the tranquil 0.8-mile Deerfield Trail serves up a variety of scenic views while walking alongside Tom's Creek. For a more vigorous workout on two wheels, take the paved seven-mile Huckleberry Trail that connects Blacksburg to Christiansburg. The trail is gently graded and dips 100 feet as it approaches Christiansburg.

Where to Park Your RV

New River Junction features a riverside setting, tubing activities, and outings to Big Falls Park. There are electric and water sites here along with restrooms and hot showers. A dump station is available in place of sewer hookups.

The Town of Sixteen Squares

The best way to get acquainted with Blacksburg is to take the historical walking tour of the Sixteen Squares, the original 16 plots of land that eventually became the townsite. Some of the interesting landmarks within these squares are the (house with the) Five Chimneys, and the log cabin houses of the early 1800s at the intersection of the Wharton- Jackson Streets. The Presbyterian Church and the Christ Episcopal Church sanctuary are two of the few old buildings from the mid-19th century that remain standing today.

Our second time renting through Big Lick RV rentals and such a smooth process both times. We were able to maximize our fun time outdoors with the work of the RV already taken care of. Thank you!
