Twin Poplar Farm

The Farm is located on 65 private acres of Woods and Field on the Tye River. This is a place for people who love nature and want to be out in it. We have chosen to prioritize conservation over ease of access, so though the sites are all walk in only  [or paddle in!] this means you will camp on the grass or leaves not the gravel of a parking lot. 
There are only 3 sites on the land so you can soak up nature without noisy neighbors.

"Twin Poplar" refers to the Tulip Poplar's extraordinary tenacity, after being cut down, like the Phoenix who returns to life after death, a Poplar will often regrow as two "twin" trunks. A chance for a new life and growth!

Such a beautiful spot, a clearing on a knoll in the middle of the woods!

The knoll above the creek, under the Beech Trees.

Look for the mailbox! [Tho' there aren't ALWAYS rainbows...]

End of the day, fire by the river. The Beach is a perfect spot for fires and to put in or take out for a paddle, just steps from the camp site.

Late afternoon as the sun is setting and the woodpeckers have a good laugh at you getting a fire going!

Harris Farm Grown

We have owned our property for 10 years and have grown our family farm starting with Tennessee Walking horses and now Black Angus cattle.  Our farm has organic pastures for our cattle to roam.  We have 2 ponds for fishing or paddle boating. Plenty of nature to watch or just plain relaxing in Mother Nature. 
The horses are friendly... so are the dogs!Learn more about this land:Park your camper on one of our spots and enjoy the quiet of way off the asphalt! Enjoy the Fire ring and picnic table area nearby for s’mores or just hanging out under the stars listening to the frogs. This is a working farm with cattle in the fields grazing and horses out in the pastures. Several pups have run of the land and are very people friendly.&nbsp;Please note: Site 1 has 50 amp power and Site 2 has 20 amp power.

Site #1 - view of horses and fishing pond. 

Site #2- next to fire ring and picnic table. View of woods and horses. 

James River Depot

An active hay field nestled between the river and the railroad.&nbsp; A great place to enjoy some R and R.&nbsp; We love to float the James and there is easy access to the river on our property.&nbsp; A beautiful field as well as some trees for added shade. Fun to hear the trains and the water as you get amazing views of the night sky.

Arcadia Sanctuary


Welcome to Arcadia Sanctuary

An 83-Acre Mountainside Retreat for Earth-Based Spirituality in Central Virginia
Arcadia is our beloved sanctuary for earth-based spirituality, nestled on the southeastern slope of 4,000-foot Mount Pleasant in Central Virginia. Conveniently located near I-81, Arcadia offers a secluded, nature-immersed experience—just a short drive from the modern world, yet miles away in spirit.

Please note: There is a town called Arcadia off I-81, but we are not located there. Be sure to follow our directions carefully.

A Living Landscape of Forest, Water, and Wildness

Our land features a flowing mountain creek with waterfalls, towering Beech and Sycamore trees, and Witch Hazels leaning gracefully over the water. You'll encounter trout, crayfish, salamanders, snakes, and the full chorus of mountain wildlife.

With nearly 2,000 feet of vertical mountainside, Arcadia offers trails to explore and camping options ranging from creek side convenience to secluded mountain hideaways. While most of our gathering areas are near creek level, higher sites are available for those seeking solitude—just be prepared for a bit of a hike to the bathrooms, showers, and fresh water.

A Natural Amphitheater for Music and Gathering

Arcadia is home to one of the finest private stages on the East Coast. Our natural amphitheater—shaped like a pie wedge carved into the mountainside—hosts live performances throughout spring, summer, and fall. With a top-quality sound system and stunning surroundings, it’s a magical venue for music, ceremony, and celebration.

Stay With Us: Yurt Glamping, Tent Camping & More

Our beautiful yurt is available for rent and offers a unique glamping experience surrounded by nature. For traditional campers, we offer multiple campsites near the creek, as well as more remote locations higher up the mountain.

Every stay includes access to the shared amenities: bathrooms, hot showers, fresh water, and community gathering spaces.

Meet the Arcadia Community

Arcadia is alive with more than just trees and streams. You’ll share space with our free-roaming flock of chickens, ducks, turkeys, and guinea fowl, along with two friendly dogs, nine curious cats, and the human stewards who live and care for this land year-round.

Luscious green next to the pond.  A great place to camp, be visited by the ducks and listen to the wildlife and the creek nearby

This is our mountain and your campsite will be about a third of the way up it.  

Guinea hang out is close to this tree.   

This is the out door amphitheater close to camp site. where when there is music you can listen there or from the luxury of your tent.

Spring Valley’s Tiny House

Spring Valley Farm was established in 1980 by Mr.Simmons and his wife. Since then they have two thriving herds of cattle, raised countless piglets, and rehomed many horses to their forever homes. Though Mr & Mrs.Simmons are still alive; his son Chad Simmons, and his wife Michelle Simmons, run the business.

The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cooking supplies!
