Button Farm offers a tranquil escape with its expansive fields and peaceful atmosphere, perfect for those looking to disconnect and enjoy nature. Campers appreciate the privacy and the well-maintained facilities, including picnic tables and a clean composting toilet. The farm's proximity to DC makes it a convenient getaway, yet it feels wonderfully remote. While the majority of feedback is positive, a few visitors noted the lack of natural shade, suggesting preparation for sunny days.

Quiet, open space with no one around — just what we needed. Great picnic tables and a peaceful atmosphere. Would stay again.

My wife and I had an unforgettable stay here. The campsite is in a wide open field with no one else around — just peace, quiet, and endless sky. It felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. The picnic tables were sturdy and well-placed, making it easy to enjoy meals outdoors. A perfect spot for couples who want to disconnect and enjoy nature in total privacy. Highly recommended!

Beautiful location and very fun to be on the farm. I'd highly recommend for a secluded location so close to DC.

Button Farm was wonderful. The field was large but had a nice private/intimate feel to it. We enjoyed chatting with Steven during our check-in. I would highly recommend staying here.

We loved waking up to the bird calls and the warm breeze. What a lovely spot. Really private and flat which is great for car camping.

Stayed at the Big Field instead of the farm site since both were available upon arrival. Steven is a great host and was very communicative throughout the whole process.
Bathroom was very nice and so was the site. 10/10 will come back

The big field is huge! I think it is stated as 23 acres but it seems even larger. I found it very peaceful. It will accommodate a bunch of people easily so for just me it was great. I didn't have time to hike all the trails nearby but it would be great to come back another time to explore the area over a 2 or 3 night stay in the future. Great host. Great place. Very awesome composting privy... best I've every seen!

This is a beautiful peaceful space and such an interesting project that is underway there! Steve and Tony were wonderful, friendly, welcoming, and informative. The geese and hogs are a wonderful addition to the experience. I would absolutely stay here again.

Accessible to town yet there is a quaint and remote feel to the property. The land is gorgeous. Steven is warm, accommodating and communicative. Love this location!

What a beautiful property! My 2 year old son loved seeing the geese, chickens, and hogs. Tons of room around the farm for groups of any sizes.
One tip on navigating there: if Apple Maps tells you you’ve arrived and you can’t find an entrance (happened to us after crossing the bridge), keep driving 200 yards. The entrance will become obvious.
Thanks for hosting us! We hope to return

Button Farm
This is a great location. Please don’t raise the price, though. The price is a bit higher than many. I think the price is about correct for what it offers. The only issue I had was not being informed of the flee market during our camp stay. The use of the pavilion is important especially when it rains or the sun is especially hot. We could not use the pavilion and lost a few hours waiting for the rain to stop. We’ll return for sure, but I’d like to know next time if the pavilion will not be available, I’ll choose a date when it is available. The historic nature of the farm is really interesting, I look forward to the new plans you have that will allow for guided tours of the property. Love the outhouse as well. You can probably add one or two more camp sites with another pavilion and outhouse close to the other sites. Love the fire pits and the privacy/distance between sites. Well done, Button Farm! See you all again soon!

Big Field
This was an excellent area to camp without being to out of the way. Checkin was easy, the field felt nice and private, and the campsite was spacious and clean. I would love to stay again sometime.
One thing of note, I visited on a cooler day, but be prepared to bring your own shade on a hot day, as there's no natural shade on the campsite.

Quiet open space. level surfaces. Soft grass. we biked in which was useful for getting to the toilet a few hundred yards away. Bring your own water and Firewood.

I loved my time in the big field! Steve was great, he even gave me the pick of sites since it was windy in the field but the field was too beautiful to not brave the cold! I will absolutely be back! Thanks so much!

Button Farm is a peaceful secluded camping area and I was surprised that updated instead of portapotties there is a high end composting outhouse in place.
Steven is an accommodating host and the farm has some fun information plaques to check out at the location

Lovely spot, very private, super clean composting toilet, (we switched to the farmhouse site due to a cancellation). Steven was very friendly, had set up a picnic table under shelter for us because rain was expected. Great access to Seneca Creek trails. Photos and description very accurate.

Big Field
This was my favorite Hip site yet! Great location with biking and omg the trails right on the property. The mill down the hill is a must do. We took chairs and sat in the creek. Close to the C & O. A winery was 3 miles away. The site was wide open and secluded. Very quiet and tons of birds and deer. Steve met us at the house and gave us and was very friendly. The bathroom is a bike ride away but not an issue at all. The geese, chicken and three lazy fat pigs were a bonus. The history of the property was interesting. Take the time to read all the signs around. Would love to go back in the fall with the leaves changing!

If you are into peace and tranquility this is the place to stay. Stayed on Big Hill behind the barn. Was going to stay for one night decided on a second. I will be coming back. Thank you for allowing me to camp at your place.

Gorgeous property that was very quite and private. Nicely manicured lawn and fire put area . Will definitely be back

Very much looked forward to the first visit of the season to Big Field and Button Farm, which was closed to campers in April and May. Perfect combination of wide open vistas across the field backed by woods, with breezes ranging from gentle to brisk to take the edge off of summer heat (‘tho only in the 70s this week, so very pleasant). Numerous bluebirds in flight, two young deer, a small rabbit, and butterflies around camp were fauna heights this trip. Quiet at night for great sleeping. And enjoyed as always catching up with the host. Highly recommended.
