Locate Coffeewood Correctional Center Inmates

Coffeewood Correctional Center is a state prison in Culpeper County, Virginia, not a county jail or regional jail. People who need to look up inmates at Coffeewood Correctional Center should use the state corrections locator rather than the Culpeper County Jail records path. The facility houses sentenced state prisoners, so visits, mail, phone calls, and money follow statewide prison rules. A Culpeper County arrest may start in local jail custody, but a state-prison sentence moves the public search into the Virginia Department of Corrections system.

Coffeewood Correctional Center Overview

Coffeewood Correctional Center is operated by the Virginia Department of Corrections, not by the Culpeper County Sheriff's Office. The VADOC facility directory lists Coffeewood with its Mitchells address, mailing address, phone number, and warden. The directory identifies Paul Hibbs as warden. For public search purposes, the most important fact is the facility type: Coffeewood is a VADOC state prison for sentenced prisoners, not a local booking jail for fresh arrests.

That type distinction controls the whole page. A person recently arrested in Culpeper County should first be traced through the local jail, feeder facilities, VINE, and court records. A person sentenced to state prison is searched through the VADOC Inmate and Supervisee Locator. Coffeewood may physically sit in Culpeper County, but it does not use the Culpeper County Jail roster path for public lookup, visitation approval, money deposits, mail processing, or inmate phone service.

The VADOC directory is the approved source image for Coffeewood's facility listing.

Coffeewood Prison Population

The 2024 PREA audit is the best sourced population and facility snapshot for Coffeewood. It listed designed facility capacity of 1,028, current population of 968, prior-12-month ADP of 929, no over-capacity in the prior 12 months, a population designation of men and boys, age range 20 to 85, Medium-Level 2 security, and 14 housing units. A prior 2021 PREA audit listed designed capacity of 1,022, current population of 863, ADP of 850, male population, age range 19 to 84, and Level 2 security.

The 2024 audit also said Coffeewood was not over capacity during the prior 12 months. That point differs from the local jail capacity picture, where the state jail report showed ADP above rated capacity. For Culpeper County inmate population research, Coffeewood should be counted as a state prison population source located in the county, while the local jail and regional feeder facilities should be treated as jail custody sources tied to arrests, court appearances, and local commitments.


Coffeewood VADOC Inmate Search

Use the VADOC Inmate and Supervisee Locator for a Coffeewood inmate search. The locator covers incarcerated people in VADOC institutions, probationers and parolees supervised by District Offices, people assigned to institutional hospitals, people housed in local or regional jails under VADOC authority, and CCAP participants. It is not the same thing as a Culpeper County booking roster. Search by first and last name or by DOC ID, then use filters only when they help narrow the result.

The VADOC locator screenshot in the manifest shows the official state locator fields used for sentenced inmate lookup.

Those fields are the correct path for Coffeewood because the facility is a state prison.

  1. Open the VADOC Inmate and Supervisee Locator and read the disclaimer.
  2. Search by DOC ID if known, or enter the person's first and last name.
  3. Use optional filters such as location, race, gender, and age range only when results are too broad.
  4. Confirm the listed status and location before planning a visit or sending money.
  5. If the person is not found, check local jail, regional jail, federal, or ICE paths based on the case history.

If the locator does not show Coffeewood, do not assume the person has no Virginia corrections record. VADOC can move state prisoners between facilities, and the locator may show another prison, a district office, a hospital assignment, a local or regional jail under VADOC authority, or a supervision status. If the person has not been sentenced to state prison, return to Culpeper County Jail, CVRJ, RSW, Middle Peninsula, VINE, and the court portals.


Coffeewood Correctional Contact

Use Coffeewood's VADOC directory information for facility contact and mail routing. Use VADOC statewide pages for rules that apply across state prisons, including visitation approval, scheduling, money, and phones. Do not send state-prison mail to Culpeper County Jail, and do not call the sheriff for VADOC visitor approval. The sheriff may have local arrest or court transport context, but Coffeewood custody is under VADOC.

Coffeewood Prison Visits

VADOC visitation is approval-based. The VADOC visiting page says visitors must apply before visiting a state prison, renew approvals, add minor visitors, and schedule after approval. Research notes say visits can generally be scheduled up to 14 days ahead and are generally limited to one weekend visit. New scheduler users register, wait for approval, and receive an email after the registration request is processed. Facility variations can apply.

Coffeewood State Prison Context

Coffeewood belongs in Culpeper County inmate population research because it is physically in the county, but it should not be mixed with Culpeper County Jail custody. A defendant arrested in Culpeper may move from local booking to a regional jail, court proceedings, sentencing, and then state prison reception or assignment. Once VADOC custody applies, the public search, visit approval, phone account, and money deposit rules become state prison rules.

For someone still in pretrial custody, use the jail and feeder-facility map instead. For someone in federal custody, use the BOP locator. For immigration detention, use ICE ODLS. For a person listed at Coffeewood, the VADOC locator and VADOC family and friends pages are the controlling public paths. Local court records may still explain the conviction or sentence, but they do not replace VADOC custody information.

The practical handoff is simple: arrest and booking are local jail topics; conviction and sentence details are court topics; prison custody, visits, money, phones, and prison mail are VADOC topics. Coffeewood's page should therefore stay prison-specific. It should not promise a county booking photo, a county jail roster profile, or a local bond counter, because those are not the systems that govern a sentenced VADOC prisoner.

Note: Coffeewood is a VADOC prison, so use state prison rules before visiting, mailing, or depositing money.
