Crisp, clean, & comfortable, this Virginia Commonwealth University area Townhome is centrally located & extremely walkable. We think that “Base Camp RVA” is the perfect pet-friendly base camp to enjoy & explore downtown Richmond, VA for active travelers and their four legged friends!
“Base Camp RVA” is a short stroll to the James River, with parks on three sides along with VCU and Oregon Hill on the others. The VCU area is perfect for walking & cycling explorations. Rent an electric bike at the Petronius S Jones Park, a few blocks away or bring your bike and keep secure at “Base Camp RVA” in the locked storage shed off the back porch.
Historic Hollywood Cemetery, on the National Register of Historic Places serves as the final resting place for 2 United States Presidents and offers views overlooking the James River. Sitting 2 blocks away, this Cemetery is lovingly enjoyed by countless Richmonders, and visitors alike for it’s unparalleled peace and beauty.
“Base Camp RVA” provides a well equipped kitchen, with generous cookware, plates, utensils, etc.; a downstairs half bath, and upstairs full bath with tub, Master Bedroom with King, & 2 queen bedrooms. The bedrooms and living room
have Roku TVs with Netflix. The dining area and living room both provide ample room for a group of up to 6. The front porch and back deck are great outdoor spaces with seating for 2 in the front and ample space in the rear. The large backyard is fenced, with large gate doors that open to the alley & garbage receptacles.

6 / 10Average·Jul 2025
Our stay was fine overall, but there were quite a few issues that made it less enjoyable than we hoped.The air conditioner made a loud *boom* sound every time it turned on and off, which was especially disruptive at night.When we arrived, the bottle of Dawn dish soap at the kitchen sink was completely empty. I let the owner know, and their only response was, *“Let me know if you’d like me to bring some.”* I felt a more proactive approach would have been appropriate.There was also a leak from the fridge when using the water dispenser — bad enough that we had to soak up the water with several small towels any time we used it. The owner said they’d get someone to fix it *after* we left, which didn’t help us during our stay.The back gate didn’t function well either. The temporary fix was a bungee cord, which was awkward to use. The back sliding door with a curtain that didn’t slide easily was difficult to use.As for the location — it was fine, but a bit worn and rough around the edges. There are definitely more charming areas to stay and I’d search a little harder for something nicer.Overall, the visit was okay, but between the disruptive noise, maintenance issues, and a generally “just okay” atmosphere, we probably wouldn’t return.
