All hail William Smallwood. Not only did he serve in the Revolutionary War, but he left behind the ideal escape from beltway chaos. Just 40 minutes outside DC, Smallwood State Park is a 628 acre paradise with a marina, boat launching ramps, a picnic area, camping area, pavilions, a recycled tire playground and nature trails. The park is on the Mattawoman Creek, less than a mile from the Potomac River, but if you’re ready to swim, errrr, boat/fish with the big fish, the Potomac River is just a mile away. Feeling reflective? Go way back to the 18th century with tours of Smallwood’s Retreat House, open on the first and third Sundays, May through September.

We are a Nature Retreat bordering Nature Conservancy land along a tributary and up and down the Rappahannock River. You can hike along the stream down to the river and up and down the river. You can fish and float the river. There are no trails so a moderate level of fitness and comfort in the forest is needed.
You can follow the water ways but it is wilderness. Camping there is primitive but available or you can camp or glamp at Earthwalk Ways Retreat. We are also adjacent to a 50 acre farm on the other side of the creek that is available for hiking. There is a reservoir nearby as well.
We are in the midst of the suburbs not far from Fredericksburg, which has some great historic and community places of interest.
Our facilities are private and we only rent to one or 2 guests at a time. You can glamp in a trailer, or car camp in a nice campground with power and water or you can go primitive and pack in. All spaces include access to our classical 11 circuit labyrinth and backyard gardens where you can enjoy zen rock garden and other contemplative nature crafts. There are some great extra's here as well including an outdoor jacuzzi and indoor infrared sauna and massage chair. These spa features are another great way to get your zen on here. I offer Forest Bathing and individual retreat support sessions, an quarterly sweat lodge and also vision quest support if people would like to experience a solo nature immersion feast.

Serenity - Privacy - Beauty - This little house by the water has it all. New Sealy queen-size mattress, well-equipped kitchen, Cuisinart coffee maker, full oven, glass-topped stove, new refrigerator, and fully screened porch with water view. Perfect for 1 or 2 adults looking to get off the grid and recharge. In St. Mary's County, MD, just 90 minutes south of Washington, DC. However, the space is small, and it is really a studio apartment as I think the pictures make evident.
Guest access
Your own kitchen, your own screened porch, our dock, bird watching (eagles, hawks, osprey, martins, bluebirds), deer, rabbits, occasional foxes, wild turkeys, and, if you are fortunate, peacocks. St. Mary's City is 40 minutes away, and there are numerous restaurants accessible within 20 minutes. Even though we are out in the hinterland, there are 2 local bars where live bands play on a regular basis within a 10-15 minute drive.
Other things to note
This is a warm and cozy space, just perfect for relaxing. There is a bookcase full of books on a variety of subjects, from escape reading to serious philosophical essays, and the water is on view 24/7. There is also a VHS player and more than 40 movies available. There is no cable or WiFi access, but most phones work here. The reception for T-Mobile is not so good

Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen, a queen bed upstairs, a twin trundle downstairs, and a cozy living room—offering all the comforts of home.
Our private 6-acre lake, fondly named Ursula’s Underwater Universe, is home to a variety of fish, including largemouth bass. A swimming platform floating over the deep area is perfect for resting or diving. Kayaks are available for free, and toilets and showers are conveniently located next to the lake.
By the lake and its small sandy beach, the Cabana is a serene escape. Comfortable patio furniture invites midday snoozes, cozy reading time, or family gatherings. It's also a great spot to keep an eye on your family’s lake activities or watch farm residents like turtles and the many varieties of birds, including great blue herons.
Also by the lake is a screened patio, our “Lilly Pad”, featuring lounging and dining areas—all with breathtaking views of our picturesque lake.
Mom’s Stage is a magical hub where music, art, and community come alive. Nestled in the heart of our expansive grassy field, this full-sized performing stage is a sanctuary for expression, laughter, and connection. Interested in a larger group event? Please inquire!
As the sun sets, gather around the fire pit for evening bonfires, warm conversations, laughter, and the joy of shared meals—whether it’s a simple dinner or a tasty marshmallow roast.

Escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life at this beautiful farmhouse loft near the South Anna River.
Outdoor features include a wooded lawn, walking trails with river access, Adirondack chairs, and a fire pit.
Indoor amenities include a comfortable queen-sized bed, a kitchenette, a washer/dryer, hot shower, a TV, free WiFi.
Just 15 mins west of historic Ashland, this countryside getaway is perfect to relax after a long week, but close enough to explore the dining options in town.
This space offers a tranquil and rejuvenating escape from the busyness of your daily routine. You can unwind in the peaceful surroundings of the wooded lawn out front, relax under the birches or the old pear tree, take a walk by the Japanese maple, or bask in the shade of the giant European Beech. You can even show off (or work on!) your green thumb by planting something in the constantly evolving Guest Garden.
Or... simply spend a lazy day down by the river with a good book, and cozy up by the campfire on a chilly evening. With comfortable amenities and gorgeous outdoor spaces, this retreat promises a relaxing and refreshing stay that guests won't soon forget.
You'll find a map in the Welcome Book as soon as you get here. Most of the trails (all pictured) you can access, but there are a couple trails we ask you to avoid for privacy reasons. It will be more clear when you arrive!

This is the best camping place I’ve ever stayed in It literally has everything you need, it was so nice to disconnect and relax in here, I am an artist and I never get the peace to just paint without interruptions but in here I even got inspiration from the land.
The host is super nice, he met me and my sister at check in to show us around and make sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed.
I felt super safe out there and I never felt like we were missing something.
I will definitely come back! Also there is a lot of yummy places in that area so we were never hungry lol
If you are reading this and considering staying just book it already!

Weekend Trip to Grasshopper Acres
I absolutely loved camping at grasshopper acres. The entire experience absolutely exceeded my expectations. Josh had everything prepared for us when we arrived, he was very helpful and pleasant. The outdoor camp potty was very clean and had plenty of supplies. The tent was very well prepared with cots, tables and a wood stove. It rained off and on the entire weekend that we camped. However, it didn't bother us because we had more than enough space inside of the tent. We painted, played games and just fellowship and enjoyed each other's company. It was an absolutely great experience and I can't wait to do it again.

We absolutely loved our stay at Sunrise by the Pond! My 12 year old daughter and I spent plenty of time with the goats, got to take the canoe out on the pond, and slept wonderfully in the tent. We both woke up shocked at how well we slept! The bed was comfortable and the tent stayed shady well into the morning. It was absolutely perfect.

Josh is the nicest human! Honestly, the favorite part was the toilet. Best outhouse at a glamping site I’ve seen yet! He had all of the cooking supplies we needed, plenty of wood, and the tent was super comfortable, especially with the stove at night. Thanks for making my Mama’s day weekend even better.

Camping on Kevin’s farm was a dream! The scenery and wildlife were absolutely stunning. Kevin was very friendly and had everything I needed already set up (firewood, water tank, etc.). None of the farm is off limits, which meant for lots of time spent with the animals. Would recommend this site to anyone needed a peaceful, healing retreat away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

1 night at Grasshopper Acres
Spacious land with neighbors far enough away that you’ll never feel crowded. It’s a glamping style experience that still captures the spirit of real camping and you get the atmosphere without the hassle of setting up and breaking down all your gear.
The tent itself is huge, easily fitting an additional 2–3 cots beyond the 2 already provided, which come with sheets and blankets. (Bring your own extra blankets if you’re expecting a cold night.) A small space heater inside the tent keeps things warm, and there’s a composting BOXIO toilet with a foot pump sink nearby. There are plenty of other amenities too, but it's too many to list here.
One thing to be aware of: this site is genuinely off grid. It’s a few miles from the main road, and the further in you go, the narrower, rougher, and less paved the roads get. It felt a little eerie, though the host does disclose this upfront.
No real complaints, this spot works for just about anyone. The host was incredibly accommodating, informative, and kind. Would absolutely return if I find myself in the area again.

We can't recommend the Farmhouse enough!!! A refreshing swimming lake and nature all to ourselves. Peaceful but with all the creature comforts of a soft bed, full kitchen, and WiFi :) The space is large enough that everyone could do what they wanted. We fed the goats, gathered some eggs, hiked the woods, paddled and swam in the lake, then we had drinks in the screened in patio. Bug free! We did not regret a second of our visit.

The house was so cute a cozy. It is a real house with electricity, internet, TV, dvd player, and Netflix, a full kitchen, and the bathroom is right beside the upstairs bedroom. The view from the bed in the morning was a beautiful huge tree in the field. Down the hill is a very large pond. I can see a float and canoes that would be great in the summer. There is a huge pavilion beside the lake with couches, a long table, chairs, a grill, and a refrigerator. There are two outside RV toilet stalls at the lake too. When I drove in I saw horses in a field and a little donkey running around, playing in a a pen. I stopped and watched. Close to the house they have goats in a pen and they wanted me to pat them. The owner, Maria, told me I could. She also has a pig and chickens. I enjoyed the solitude but this place would be wonderful for a family outing or corporate retreat. I forgot a few things, so Maria directed me to a nearby Walmart in Tappahannock. I highly recommend a stay at Maria's farm.
