Wolftrap Farm was owned by James & Dolley Madison during their time, and they called it Black Meadow. Their home, Montpelier, is just across the mountains you see from the campsite. It passed through the hands of various local farmers during the 19th & 20th centuries, and for many years was a dairy farm. It became primarily a horse farm in the 1970's, when it was owned by the German Von Wulffen family.The Cuthrell family from the Norfolk/Virginia Beach area acquired the farm in 2003 and converted it to a resort farm, featuring upscale vacation homes. Beginning around 2013, the farm started morphing into primarily a wedding venue, and now hosts over 60 weddings each year.

My partner and I had such an amazing 2 night trip. The bed was super comfy and the cabin was really unique with a modern flare, yet warm and cozy inside. I highly recommend using the hot tub at night. It was so amazing sitting in there and looking up at the stars. Our host, Trevor, was wonderful. His hospitality, on making sure our stay, was flawless. 10 out of 10 for sure. We will definitely recommend this retreat. Thank you again, Trevor.

The tiny house has everything you would need. It was cute, quiet, and the hot tub was perfect for the chilly autumn nights. There’s a projector screen right by hot tub which made for some spooky vibes. And the cute fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. There’s also some trails to walk and we got to see some highland cows. Would definitely recommend! Thank you host

First and foremost the host was extremely responsive with all my questions. The tiny house was exceptionally cute. The area was just what we needed to get away from every day things. The kitchen tho we didn't need much has all your basic needs.

As we fled from Hurricane Erin, this mountain retreat was the perfect escape. The owners were incredibly responsive, and we had no trouble checking in. The house itself was spotless and had everything we needed—all we had to bring were our personal items and food. Tucked away on a secluded mountaintop, it was a fantastic spot to continue our summer vacation. The house even had basic supplies for the kids, which was a huge bonus.

Great site, quiet and spacious, beautiful views of the mountains. Clean restroom/shower facilities conveniently located near tent. Tent setup was very comfortable with a bed, a/c, grill, table. Quiet, and loved having the horses nearby. Glad that there was a fridge to keep perishables, and other supplies like plates, etc. Ladies room was awesome.

Frogsong was an incredible stay. Maybe our favorite ever actually. The house itself is sounique and beautiful, and the stream that is located only a couple of minutes away captured my heart and soul. There are very very few places as magical as frogsong, and even less that are available to stay at.
Thank you Ken & Alice for offering your little slice of heaven!

This is a beautiful farm. The setting was very peaceful. It was really cool having access to a full kitchen within just a few steps. The showers and restrooms were clean and convenient! As it ended up being near record breaking temps during our stay- our host Tina had the AC running in the tent, ahead of our arrival to help cool it down a bit. We look forward to visiting Wolftrap Farm during the fall season!

The cottage is super cozy, clean, and welcoming! There is a fire pit and grill (charcoal BBQ) available on site. I enjoyed sitting out in the porch and cooking with my portable stove top. The induction works well, but it’s a 2 burner with limited capacity, so plan accordingly. Our hosts were gracious and the entire setting was picturesque and quiet. Would stay again!
