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.

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!

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!

Bald Eagle Farm has been in our family for three generations. Today two generations still live and operate the family farm. We once raised tobacco and cattle and have now converted to growing hay and grain. My family wants to share the views and the experience of sleeping under the stars
on our beautiful secluded farm. You will hear nothing but the wind, birds, frogs and insects while you doze off or enjoy the dark sky and camp fire.
We live on the farm so we are always here to help you out if needed. We can provide you with water from our deep well. We are here to make your stay as comfortable as possible and provide a restroom in the case of an "emergency".
Recently named a finalist for 'Best Hipcamp in Maryland'! Thank you SO much for your support and we look forward to hosting you in 2022.
There are three campsites on the farm, one by the pond and two by the river. Very secluded and all sites include , firepit, log bench,
and a picnic table that seats 3-4 people. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN FIREWOOD. AT THIS TIME WE ARE OUT FOR THE SEASON.
The original river campsite has been moved to a more remote spot so that all campers can access the pond and pier to the river.
Farm encompasses nearly 300 acres on the Patuxent River. There is access to the river on high tide via our private creek (must bring your own canoe or kayak) and 150 acres of marshland. Over 100 acres of woods to walk through and a pond for wildlife watching.

Alex has cleared a nice walking trail into the deep woods that is really scenic. I camped at the top of the hill since I think it would take a 4 wheel dive to get back up from the bottom. I would recommend ear plugs because of the neighbor's competitive crowing 🐓 roosters! I just turned a podcast on and went right back to sleep. Verizon cellular was acceptable with one to two bars. This is a real find for NOVA! Thanks again, Alex, for a second stay.

Matthew's camp site was great! Private, beautiful sunset view, nice setup around the fire pit!
We used a tent, but there were great trees for hammock camping too!
Porta John was clean, with no funky smells, and a large non-potable water source just in case.
Definitely recommend this spot for a weekend getaway!

I find it difficult sometimes to leave reviews, especially when you have nothing bad to say. We enjoyed our stay for a week in our RV. It was very quiet. The stars are very bright and the views in the country were very peaceful. It is a little remote and some of the back roads might be tight for larger bus style RVs with the trees in the branches, but our 34 foot Jayco Greyhawk had no problems at all navigating to the farm. We would definitely recommend this farm to anyone in the area looking for a place to camp. The animals are very friendly and our little Jack Russell loved running around, taking in all the smells.

We had a great time at Casa Vargas after taking a day hike in Shenandoah. The waterfront site was beautifully situated right next to the lake. There were beautiful birds and horses to pet. We definitely recommend it and hope to come back soon!

Awesome host! This is our 4th Hipcamp site and we enjoyed every moment here even my 13 years old son said, "Dad, this has been the most stress-fee camping trip ever." We paid $30 to rent the kayaks and my kids enjoyed them as well. Quiet and quaint! We will be back again in the near future!

The Lakeview site at Casa Vargas was beautiful, quiet, and peaceful. We camped right on the shore of the lake and enjoyed watching the swans swimming around. There was a picnic table and a fire ring, and also a couple of kayaks a short walk from our site. There were two or three houses on the other side of the lake, but otherwise nothing but hills, woods, and farmland. The site was remote enough that there was no road noise whatsoever. We used leveling blocks for our camper but probably would have been fine without them. I would highly recommend this site.

Highlight for us was sleeping near the water, seeing billions of stars, and hearing all the different birds communicating in the morning. However, you must go prepared with your own water, toilet, and electric sources. It’s really was a gem for us.

Casa Vargas was just what we needed. A quiet and peaceful getaway. We camped at the LAKEVIEW spot. Our dogs had a blast playing in the water but likely scared the fish away for me. The night sky was clear and amazing. And Juan was very welcoming and helpful with any questions we had. I would definitely recommend staying here and we’ll likely return. There are plenty of winery’s and breweries close by but this trip we just chose to sit by the lake and relax.

My wife, 2 boys and I stayed Sat. and although we had to pack up at night because little man was to cold, we would definitely be back. Matt met us and showed us where everything was and had the campsite cleaned and ready for us loaded with fresh cut firewood. We will definitely be back in the spring. Directions were easy to get to it. Nice 5 minute walk to the river also.

Site is exactly as pictured. There are two adjacent sites on both sides, which were empty during my visit and I enjoyed my solitude as a solo camper. Someone did drive past on their 4-wheeler but it wasn’t a problem. Shane’s communication was great. He was able to promptly answer my questions prior to booking and also took the time to reach out to me after seeing the road condition to ensure I had an adequate vehicle to make it to the site. Would 100% recommend and I will return. Thankful for the opportunity.

The farm animals and the farm fresh eggs were much appreciated. It was too cold to explore but the campsite met our needs for a one night stay. It was a bit tricky backing into the site. Rodney’s communications were excellent. The area looks like it would be lovely when the weather is more hospitable. We should have taken advantage of the offer to dump our tank as the Camping World didn’t honor the Good Sam perk of free use of the septic dump.
