Tucked away in Virginia’s backcountry, our secluded 60-acre farm offers something for everyone: a private 6-acre lake, wooded trails, a friendly animal pen, screened-in patio and dining, and a full-sized performing stage.
Please let us welcome you to the Little Farmhouse at Fox Moon Farm.
Sitting atop our charming grassy bowl, the Little Farmhouse invites you to unwind on its beautiful wraparound porch, complete with rocking chairs perfect for sipping your morning coffee as the sun rises over the hills. 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.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, hosting a family reunion, or simply wanting to catch your breath, our farm provides the perfect backdrop for meaningful connections. Spend time with our friendly horses and miniature donkeys, delight in the playful antics of our baby goats, or enjoy feeding the chickens.
Don’t miss out—book your stay today!

My kids and I had a great time camping on the lake for two nights. The owner has done a lot of work to cut the trails and sites, everything was in great shape and perfectly located. It was very quiet and peaceful, with so many stars visible at night. Seeing the baby goats was a big hit with my girls! We will definitely come back👍🏼

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.

I decided last minute to get out for a quick overnight trip and do some camping/fishing. Found this place not too far from me. It’s wintertime so I had the place to myself, except a bunch of Beavers and some Deer. Everything was as described, I think even during the warmer months there is enough separation between sites that you would have a good amount of privacy while still being right near the water. There are kayaks for use and lots of good fishing spots. The host was cool and helpful. Highly recommend.

This is a rustic little spot about 15 minutes off Rt. 460 in central VA. No amenities, so bring everything you will need, but Merritt was responsive and quite hospitable. The land is privately located among a small hardwood tree grove, but has nice pond views to one side and fields on 2 other sides. Merritt and his wife are lovely people and fascinating to talk to.

My friend and I stayed at the "Hillside lakefront near Beach" campsite. I liked the site because it was very private. The site sits behind the goat and chicken farm, so be preppared for them to roam around your site. They generally didn't bother us, however the roosters did wake us up at the crack of dawn, as they're known for.
The site was spacious, had a table and fire pit, beautiful lake views, and was a short walk from the kayaks. The site was a 30 minute drive from Pleasant Grove Park, which had miles of easy, scenic hiking trails.
Charles and Steven were very responsive and explained to us where our site was, where to find additional firewood, the kayaks, the porta-potty, dumpster, and the general layout of the property.

We thoroughly enjoyed our campsite. We had site #2, a little peninsula that juts out into the lake. There were several spots that we could have pitched our tent, but we decided to pitch it right on the peninsula, surrounded on 3 sides by water. If you want more of a windbreak, you can camp closer to the firepit. The campsite was nice and cleared, surrounded by large trees, and had a nice picnic table. We didn’t end up using any of the provided boats but did use the porta potty, which was very clean. There is a big dumpster on site to dump your trash. Would highly recommend this place. Not totally secluded (we could still hear our neighbor’s music and talking in the distance, but also not crowded at all. It’s a nice in between. Glad we had a 4-wheel drive truck, so just take it slowly on the road that runs the perimeter of the lake to your spot. Our host was very responsive.
