THE CAMPGROUND IS REGISTERED WITH MONTGOMERY COUNTY SHORT TERM RENTALS LICENSE # STR25-00075. The campground is situated in the wooded area on the back of 27 acre horse farm which is known as "The Stables at Mezza Luna." There is Wi-Fi to all the sites. Every year in the spring there are 4-6 Thoroughbred foals born that eventually will become racehorses. They live on the farm until they are 2 years old and then they go off to begin their racing career. In the daytime, when you are not sitting around your campfire, you can walk the fence lines and visit with the Mares and Foals or just watch them frolic in the fields. Hint! "They love peppermints, carrots and apples." Who knows, you might get to meet a future Kentucky Derby winner. Nearby attractions include: BLACK HILLS REGIONAL PARK (15 minutes) for boating, hiking or biking Vineyard 61 (5 minutes) Stone Silo Brewery (5 Minutes) Leechwood Haunted Forest (5 Minutes) October weekends only There are also chickens and peacocks that are very anxious to receive your love and affection with any type of treat such as raisins. Kids can even go in the chicken coop and pick out their very own egg they can cook for their breakfast. For the energetic campers and kids there are also lots of trails that you can walk or hike on and there is a small stream the kids can play in. There also is a playground with swings, monkey bars, seesaw and trampoline. There is a dumpster in front of the barn for you to place your trash. Please drop off during your stay or on your way out of the property. Don't miss out out on this hidden gem just minutes from our nation's capital.

Your Private Couples' Retreat

5. Your Private Couples' Retreat

39mi from Bensville · 1 site · Tent, RV · Hague, VA
Welcome to the ultimate getaway for lovers. This is not your average RV camping spot - it's a sanctuary where intimacy and serenity blend seamlessly with the great outdoors. Bring your own RV or Camper and enjoy. Nestled in a rural residential neighborhood on a gravel dirt surface with plenty of space for a 40' max back-in RV, this spot offers everything you need for comfort and convenience: Full hook-ups with water, sewer, and 50/30 amp electric service. A charming deck platform where you can sip coffee in the morning or watch the stars at night. A picnic table perfect for shared meals or a spontaneous card game. A firepit to cozy up around and share stories, laughter, and marshmallows. This is more than just a parking spot – it’s a haven for rekindling connection. Why Choose This Spot? Have you noticed what most campgrounds lack? Intimacy. They can be noisy, crowded, and anything but private. This space is different. Designed with couples in mind, it offers quiet time and the privacy you’ve been longing for – a perfect retreat for two. It’s a space where the lines between Mother Nature’s beauty and warm shelter blur. Where you can sit hand-in-hand with your best friend, partner, road dog, or love kitten and feel the world slow down. When was the last time you truly unplugged together? When did you last sit quietly, holding each other, letting the worries of the world melt away? This isn’t just another campsite; it’s an invitation to reconnect. Imagine This… The crackle of a firepit warms the evening air as you wrap up in a blanket and share a quiet moment under a canopy of stars. The deck becomes your morning refuge, where coffee tastes better and smiles come easier. You feel the breeze whisper through the trees, and for once, there’s nothing to interrupt the peace. This is where love finds room to breathe and grow. It’s the perfect spot to fall in love all over again – with each other, with life, and with the simplicity of being together. Conveniently located with easy access to outdoor adventures and local attractions, yet far enough to give you the privacy you crave. Whether you want to explore the surroundings or simply stay put and soak in the tranquility, this spot is your ideal base. You deserve this time an you’ll rediscover the joy of connection.

11. Gratitude at the Mill Pond

48mi from Bensville · 2 sites · Tents, RVs · Heathsville, VA
In 1831 formerly Northern's Mill had an old mill house, dwelling house, outbuildings, mill pond and water courses with about 31 acres and was bought for an enormous amount of $10.00! At the working mill the owner's wife baked pies for the workers to enjoy while they waited for their ground grains (most likely corn, soybeans and wheat). The pond is also recognized as Courtney Mill Pond and Kissinger Mill Pond. Fires in the 1980's have claimed the building creating a perfect place for you to enjoy nature outside. Learn more about this land: Fresh and salt water surrounds a birding, fishing paradise with 5 acres to explore. Bald Eagles are a common siting. We offer a primitive camping experience in the heart of the Northern Neck.  The road is washed out and fresh water pond mostly drained. You will access from Mundy Point Road. This historical site had a working Mill built in the early 1800's. Please check out my friend's place nearby at Callao Brewery and Rivah Vineyards at the Grove!  Grab some fresh local veggies from one of the Amish stands and don't forget your tackle and bait at RW's. Camp 1 has the most room for car camping and groups close to the road and overlooking the pond. Camp 2 is a short hike to a private knoll overlooking the grassy marsh of Mill Creek, this is tidal water that flows to the Potomac. Welcome to Gratitude!
