Natural Roots Farm
This was thee most amazing find! It was super cozy and private and such accommodating and friendly hosts. It was super convenient to park at our spot and the outdoor bathroom wasn’t bad either, will definitely book again in the future!

Not private, but great stargazing!
13 ft pop-up camper · With pets ·
Natural Roots Farm
Let me start with the positive: the setting was beautiful and the open skies at night made for great stargazing.
A few small issues: we did not get the camp site site we booked, the owner said this was because we were in a tear drop trailer and they put everyone on the camp site in the middle of the meadow because it is the flattest. I expected three sites because of the map in the listing, but there were six active while we were there, one of which was on the other side of the small tree grove and made privacy very difficult, especially because there is no potty tent for the center of the meadow and because this is the high point. We expected there would be some farm noise and dogs, but the quacking waterfowl and hound dog yowl were more than anticipated. This might be an issue if you’re not in a camper. The firewood was a bit overpriced for the quality and amount, but overall we enjoyed our time. Can’t beat 15 mins to the park!

Natural Roots Farm
We camped in a travel trailer. Rebecca and William had us in a lovely spot that was fairly level. The campsites are spread out so everyone has privacy.
We enjoyed a visit to their farm and are still enjoying fresh eggs!

We really enjoyed our stay at Natural roots farm. The meadow has 5 Campsites and you can see the other campers across the field but the spacing is such that you can't hear them and there's plenty of privacy. It's the kind of Camping we did when,I was little: just tents and small trailers. Not the RV cities that are the norm now. It was the most peaceful camping I've had in a long time.
Thank you Rebecca for hosting us. Also the eggs were excellent.
I would happily camp there, again

Overpriced Sleeping In a Field
14 ft car · With pets ·
Natural Roots Farm
Lots of thoughts! I wish someone had posted a more helpful review for me - so going to give the details of my experience. I would not come here to tent camp if you want to sleep.
1. Getting there/Actual Site:
We followed owners from their house to a field. All the camping happens in a large field that is split up into 5 sites. They had just mowed so there were lots of bugs but actual site was ok. You can see all the other sites from wherever you are and “bathrooms” are pop up tents that are shared. Our site was at the back of the field so we had lots of bees at our site from the beehives nearby, we backed up to the outdoor dog Kennel/duck/rooster etc enclosure. We tent camped so barely slept with the noise from the animals at all hours. It’s a very tight fit for anyone in a camper to get to these sites.
2. Hosts/Amenities:
Hosts are nice, they went out of their way to show my kids all the animals. Each site has a picnic table, fire ring and water jug with well water. We had ordered fire wood and $10/order was a rip off. We had to order another one to get through two nights of fires. So $30 for two nights of fire wood - that’s ridiculous. Also, for $45/night felt overpriced for sleeping in a field, then I had to pay $30/night for my parents to come stay in the same campsite as us. There are no hiking trails, you don’t stay on the actual farm so you don’t see any animals (just hear them). It didn’t feel like an “experience” just sleeping in a field.

This was an awesome campsite! The starry night sky and mountain views were lovely. Wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a wonderful weekend at site 2! The land is beautiful and well-maintained, and there was car access via a dirt road/path in the field. We parked right at our site. They give you a big jug of water and set up a fire pit w grate, bucket toilet, trash can and firewood (need to purchase from them). 3 of their sweet dogs stopped by to visit, which we loved. We got to check out all of their farm animals (there was also a little puppy!) and meet the hosts’ (hilarious) kids. The farm animals are a little loud in the morning and we heard some dogs barking at night, but we expected it bc the listing is very clear that it’s a working farm (and dogs are often part of a working farm). FYI they’re not kidding when they say there isn’t cell service at/near the site. Save gps routes on your phone! We had to drive to a local market called Maybelles (7ish min drive) in Dyke to use the wifi for directions. Great store btw - free wifi, big walk-in beer cooler, good breakfast biscuit sandwiches, cheap prices. We’re planning to come back!

Wonderful time staying overnight. The sight was clean and came with a fire pit, bench, “outhouse” tent and even some water too! The campsite was on their property and the family was very lovely!! Their Great Pyrenees family was is adorable. We even had one of them keeping us company at the campsite 🏕! Loved it

The camp site is in a beautiful open field surrounded by trees which provide shade when needed. Comes with a fire pit, swinging bench, picnic table, portable outhouse with luggable loo portable toilet, and 5 gallons on water. Hosts were responsive and had everything set up and ready.
Unfortunately, we would not choose to stay here again due to the number of dogs that barked continuously overnight leading little to no sleep. The site is on a working farm in which the owners have dogs to protect the livestock. If there happen to be coyotes when you stay, the dogs will bark which was very loud at the campsite.
We asked to owners if they could restrict the dogs barking and were told they would try their best but we should understand it is a working farm. Our expectations of a working farm are cow, rooster, etc. noises at various times especially into the morning - which we expected going into the camping trip. We do not feel it is reasonable for campers to expect multiple dogs barking all night to be part of a working farm and this has not been the case when we have camped at other farms. If this is the owners expectations, we recommend the farm not host campers as a reasonable expectation of a camper is to have enough quiet at night to fall asleep. We have no reason to expect silence but the dogs barked the entire night.
Though this only occurred the first night we were there, given the risk that this would occur again we wanted to ensure people knew this is a possibility.

The campsite was beautiful and exactly what we needed! Plenty of space to setup and spread out. The fire pit, bench swing and picnic table were great and the portable “outhouse” was convenient. Rebecca and William were great hosts, even going as far as to help us jump our car the morning we left (left the trunk open too long and the battery died). Highly recommended!

Family time around the campfire and farm fresh eggs. Close to Shenandoah National Park for hiking. Kids loved seeing all the animals on the farm. Beautiful spot for camping.

My husband, sister, brother-in-law and I had an amazing time at Natural Roots Farm! The site felt private and gave great views of the surrounding mountains. Rebecca and her family were very welcoming and friendly, and they made sure we had everything we needed. They were very knowledgeable about good hiking spots nearby. Would recommend to anyone wanting a fun camping experience near Shenandoah NP with family or friends!

Natural Roots Farm
Had such a fantastic weekend on the meadow! The land is beautiful and no cell service! Big plus! They provided water and a privacy tent as a bathroom, which was very kind. They made sure got fresh eggs and plenty of fire wood. The kids were charming and played so well with our dog. We got to explore the farm and got all of our guestions answered. Great spot with lots of fun little towns and hikes in the area. We had to park a bit aways because they don't allow cars in the meadow, but they carted us up with their ATV. Overall a great experience!

Natural Roots Farm Stay Homestead
We loved the RV spot, very cool spot, nice fire ring and picnic table They're such good folks, we felt welcome to poke around the farm and hang out with all the animals. Plus they had great looking eggs, soaps and honey from the farmstead among other things. Loved our stay. Will return next time we're in that area.

Camping at Rebecca’s farm was lovely. The meadow was absolutely beautiful. Rebecca and her husband let us stay in their RV our first night due to the weather. We got to pet a newborn baby calf which was an amazing experience. Would recommended and would stay again!

We had a great weekend at Natural Roots Farm. The hosts were incredibly helpful and friendly. They helped us handle the difficult weather during the first two days of the trip, and made sure we had everything we needed to stay safe and dry!! Looking forward to returning here next time we visit Shenandoah!

Rebecca and her husband had the kindness to accomodate my friends and I at the last minute and we were very well received. The site is beautiful, secluded, and next to Shenandoah Park. Perfect for those who like primitive camping (even though we were provided water, a grill and portable outdoor shower). I would definitely go back!

William was a great host! Very knowledgeable of the area and super helpful (even helping me with a flat tire!). He shuttled our gear to the campsite and provided us with a big jug of water. The stream was close by and the animals were fun to see!

We had a really great time staying in this farm. We were really spaced out from other campers and had really good privacy. The property is beautiful, and you can see just about every star at night when the sky is cleared. The hosts were very welcoming and readily available for anything we needed. Really close to Shenandoah National Park and leaving our stuff to go hiking at Shenandoah felt really safe. This was a great experience and I highly recommend it.

Awesome hosts & experience! The RV was well maintained, private, and in the middle of all the animals. The farm was so fun, our 3 yr old loved it, cows, pigs, sheep, ducks, turkeys, eggs right from the chicken coup. Cooking smores & hot dogs over the fire pit under the stars in the middle of the Shenandoah valley, great family trip! Thank you!

My roommates in and I were in a tight situation after finding out all the campsites in Shenandoah were full... but this campground made up for it!! The site was very private (could see the two other campsites if you were looking for them) but still felt secluded and safe. The hosts are very nice and made the experience very good! Saw the Milky Way and roosters woke us up for our early morning hike. Truly, truly beautiful, we’re already planning a trip back for the springtime!

Rebecca and William are wonderful hosts, and the location was amazing, only about 15 minutes from Skyline Drive. They were very communicative and even drove by in their mule every so often to see if we needed anything (I have to switch from T-Mobile, Verizon works fine). We will definitely be coming back soon!

Relaxing with a wonderful view of Fall’s changing colors and a farm. We were greeted every morning with a variety of animals. The owners were very helpful as well. Overall, my wife and I loved it to say the least and we already booked a future stay. Thanks again!
