Twenty plus years ago, there was an ad in the paper listing ten acres for sale in Old Church. It has always been a special place and so the adventure began... We built the house and ever since, have been adding gardens, paths, trails, benches, swings and generally giving back the love to the land for the pleasure it has provided. As a result, there is wildlife and birds galore. Hummingbirds will delight you as will the tree frogs and lizard frogs at the frog pond canoe. Wander down the path to our first vegetable garden location which is now a prime spot for pitching a tent or just hanging out and watching for deer, turkeys, or turtles. Depending on the season, you can enjoy blooming azaleas, coneflowers, crepe myrtles or zinnias. This is a super woodland that will give you every opportunity to relax and wonder at the beauty of nature. The RV site is close to the house and we will be right here should you need us.

Well it’s here. I’m Located in Wakefield Virginia. If you’re traveling to Virginia Beach I’m one hour away. From my farm there is a free ferry in Scotland where the ferry departs to Williamsburg just 30 minutes.

All have a clean picnic table and a fire pit. 100 feet away you’ll find that clean bathroom, shower and a wash station for hygiene. You’ll see the love I put into this and because I love it and my prior guests love it, which means it may be right for you also. In the town of Wakefield you’ll find gas stations, dollar stores, a Value food market and if you want (to go) food we have that also. Plus it’s home to The Virginia Diner.

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!

2 nights at Private Farm House w lake

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.

This is my girls favorite place to camp and I can’t blame them! There is plenty for them to do, the farm animals (and piglets!) are friendly, and the hosts are great folks. This is our third time camping here and we are looking forward to coming back!

1 night at THE FARM @ NOEL

Paul’s land was an excellent place to camp for a quick overnight trip. The camp site was secluded and quiet and Paul was very helpful in getting us set up. We have added this to our list as one of our favorite spots in the area.

Weekend Trip to Peace Hill Farm

Susan was quick to respond for confirming the booking. This was my second stay at Peace Hill and I had a wonderful time. I stayed at Site 3 and it is very flat and close to the Lafayette Hall where there are bathrooms with showers and a kitchen. The site faces the owners main house and horse ring. If you want more privacy, pick the sites on the other side of the Lafayette Hall. I loved walking the property and visiting the farm animals!

This was a great place to camp. Looked like it has some good amenities but wasn't able to take part because I arrived late and left early. The campsite was clean, private and peaceful. The host was very informative and had good communication. I'd like to come back again.

Fun country style room with complimentary food and drinks. Microwave and fridge toaster and coffee maker with coffee. Some fun couples games to play! Ac and the heater. And books to read.

1 night at Farm cottage in the country

We absolutely loved our stay at this Hipcamp spot last week! It was the perfect retreat—so cute and cozy, and truly had all the amenities a weary traveler could possibly need. I was especially impressed by how conscientious and thoughtful the host was throughout our stay. For instance, the space was efficiently designed with plenty of hooks for hanging items, which is essential in a small space. We were also very grateful that she provided snacks and small bites to eat after our long drive, and she was incredibly communicative and fast at responding to any questions we had. As a pet owner, I was also appreciative that the space was pet-friendly, allowing my dog, Biscuit, to join us on the trip. I sincerely hope to stay again sometime soon, perhaps when the weather is a bit nicer! Highly recommend this wonderful spot.

Peace Hill is a beautiful working farm which provided plenty of level space to camp. There is plenty of room to load and unload tow vehicles. The generous permission to use the community center kitchen and bath were outstanding perks. For bicycle enthusiasts, its proximity to the Capital Bike Trail Charles City Parking area was a bonus. For tourists, it is close to Jamestown and Williamsburg. I loved watching the exercising of the horses. The friendly waves of those feeding the farm animals made me feel welcome. Susan was very accommodating when I had to leave early due to snow. I will definitely revisit this site when in the area. FYI: I found it best to put Peace Hill Fellowship in when goggling directions so I wouldn't end up at the Bed & Breakfast.

We enjoyed our stay on this property! The archers den campsite felt very private and had plenty of space. We loved the big fire pit with cooking grate.. The three campsites are far enough away from the winery/brewery that you don’t feel like you are camping at public business. Even though they had live music playing and seemed pretty busy we could barely hear anything going on. On the other hand if you wanted to enjoy the festivities it’s just a short walk from the campsites.

This campsite was great and the winery/ brewery on site was so much fun. Our puppy loved the dog park as well as walking around the campsite. The picnic table and fire pit were high quality and thus was the perfect back drop to the Fall season. Will definitely be coming back. Sheridan was wonderful and very quick to respond even when I mistakenly went to the wrong location, she redirected us with ease!
