3. Peaceful 5-Acre Vineyard Retreat VA

35mi from Bensville · 2 sites · Tents, RVs · Fredericksburg, VA

You will have access to camp on a beautiful property with the back 5 acres consisting of a micro vineyard, a few hobby farm animals - Turkeys at the moment and a peaceful landscape for your enjoyment. You remain close to all the area has to offer but are tucked away in a nice Northern Virginia hamlet which is known for having its own climate. Usually sunnier than most areas! You will have the 5 acres to yourself with access to the pergola by the pond, a fire pit and only nature out your windows! This location is close enough to all that historic Fredericksburg has to offer while remaining a serene location tucked away and surrounded by forest.

Cedarville State Forest

4. Cedarville State Forest

23 sites · Cedarville, Maryland

If you’re down for a little history (and maybe a little mystery) Cedarville State Forest will definitely dazzle. The 3,510 acre forest was once the winter camping ground of the Piscataway Tribe because of the mild climate and abundance of game. Legend claims that there is a Native American burial ground within the forest... but it has yet to be found. Spooky! Equestrian, family and youth group campsites are available for your overnight stay. 19.5 miles of horseback riding, hiking and mountain biking trails weave through the forest. They pass a number of historical features, including the loblolly pine plantations that were planted by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930's, by a charcoal kiln, and through farm areas whose springs and streams were used to make moonshine!

Fabulous site! Treehouse area so fun for the kids and great to camp in the woods without having lots of other people around you. Conveniently close to Richmond, and fun to see and hear about the family's school in the woods! Loved seeing the piglets!

The play area was perfect for my kids. We were in the Treehouse camping site and I could see them from my camp space but they felt like they were "away" from me. Perfect. The campsites filled up and we made fast friends with other campers. My kids did the nature excursion with Kelly, and loved building fairy houses. Will be back!

Weekend Trip to Peace of Earth Farmstead & Forest

We had a wonderful weekend camping with our kids and dog. The property was unique and had all the amenities that make tent camping a little easier. The playground and trails kept our kids busy as they made new friends and explored. The property feels secluded and safe. We were able to really relax and spend quality time together. Ross checked in on us twice and Kelly was very responsive with messages. We are eager to return soon!

Weekend Trip to Dry RV Pad - 55min from DC - 30amp

This was a very nice and quiet place to stay! I felt completely safe, and the rope lighting was a neat addition to the site. The water wasn't at the site, due to it being winter, but Suzette allowed me to fill my fresh water tank at her house, just up the hill from the site. I would definitely request to come back if I'm ever in the area again!
