The Guinea farm is 18 acres of feild and forest on the rural middle pennensula. Only 1 mile from 2 separate secluded beaches and a boat launch. There is verly little traffic or light polution here, nature is at your fingertips. Come visit the farm and experience agrotourism at it's finest. Pick your own veggies in the community garden and meet the Guinea fowl! Enjoy the windernes and learn about the local ecosystem here on the middle pennensula. There are 3 sites spaced out across the 18 acres set apart for privacy. Wisteria is a primative site closer to the entrance gate. Trilogy is a suspended tree tent in the pines 700' beyond that and seperated by dense forest. Stargazer Tiny cabin is an offgrid rustic camping cabin on the back side of the property. Each site is surronded by several acres of forest and close to the edge of a large feild. There are romaing guinea fowl that may come make a very loud appearance as they canvas the property eating bugs. Deer, Turkeys, Bald Eagles, foxes, and other wildlife are common guests also. Mid-summer is what I call frog season, Tree frogs are abundant and provide a wonderful soundtrack. There are free to use bicycles, an axe throwing board, and cornhole boards available. 4 miles from shopping and dining in Mathews Virginia, 15 miles to Gwynn Island. Gwynn's Island is an island located in the Chesapeake Bay off of Virginia's Middle Peninsula. The island is located in the northeast part of Mathews County, south of the mouth of the Piankatank River. It is connected to the rest of the county by a swing bridge over Milford Haven.

Ian's campsite offers a blend of rustic charm and thoughtful amenities, making it a delightful escape for campers. The setting feels secluded, yet provides access to essentials like a fire pit, outdoor shower, and fun extras like a treehouse and axe throwing. Visitors appreciate Ian’s hospitality and the proximity to quiet beaches, which adds to the serene atmosphere. While the presence of guinea fowl adds a unique touch, the overall experience is peaceful and well-received by guests.

Camping and fishing on the Bay
I stayed at the Trilogy site. I stayed in my own tent, but there is a suspended tent available on site. It also had a picnic table, fire, pit, and outdoor shower. I hiked around the property and took part in the axe throwing board. That was a lot of fun. I drove down the road a mile to the beach and did some fishing and came back to the site that evening to cook dinner and hang out around the fire. Ian is a great host. He included firewood and farm fresh eggs for me. I used one of the eggs to put on my burger that I cooked that evening. You can’t see anyone on the other sites from where you are at, you can at times hear some of the other people in the distance, but I was surrounded by good people in a safe area. I would recommend the site to anyone doing a solo camp, family camp, or other group camp. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 💯

Wisteria Treehouse
The treehouse was so cozy , especially at night with the fairy lights. It had everything we needed for a relaxing camping trip and plenty of land for my dog to walk around. Would definitely come back & Ian was very helpful!
