Greenock Farm

48mi from Westmoreland State Park · 4 sites · Tents, RVs · Lothian, MD
Please read entire description and most importantly, there are no toilet facilities, so please pack it out, dig a hole or bring your own head if you're not self-contained. No presents for me or other campers, thank you. 45-acre Historic farm, several sites to choose from depending on adventure wanderlust (including a 4WD drive site). Located on private gravel lane, approximately 1/2 mile off county road. Either corn or soybeans with a woods backdrop. Secluded and private, yet 25 minutes to downtown Annapolis, 10 minutes to the Bay, great for cycling, paddleboarding, kayaking all 10/15 minutes from farm. DC 45 minutes, Baltimore 1 hour. Jug Bay wetlands, wineries, fun little waterfront towns and Bay front restaurants all within easy reach. Check out individual sites for description, each has its own personality. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. First listing actually has several options. For large campers/coach/fifth wheelers the area by the tractor shed will be the best. Around the corner there's two other choices both with firepits which will accommodate units up to 40 feet depending on your backing/maneuvering skills. Field of Dreams and Sycamore Ridge will accommodate campers under 25 feet with some backing/maneuvering skills. For those with 4WD and an off-road camper/trailer/tent choose Off the Grid, two entrances for easy access, travel along a logging road to an open site with fire pit. Suitable during dry conditions and not responsible for damage to vehicle or camper. Great spot for those who truly want to be in the woods off the beaten path, site takes about 5 minutes to reach due to low-speed access.

Earthwalk Ways Retreat

94%
(26)
41mi from Westmoreland State Park · 7 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Fredericksburg, VA
We are a Nature Retreat bordering Nature Conservancy land along a tributary and up and down the Rappahannock River. You can hike along the stream down to the river and up and down the river. You can fish and float the river. There are no trails so a moderate level of fitness and comfort in the forest is needed. You can follow the water ways but it is wilderness. Camping there is primitive but available or you can camp or glamp at Earthwalk Ways Retreat. We are also adjacent to a 50 acre farm on the other side of the creek that is available for hiking. There is a reservoir nearby as well. We are in the midst of the suburbs not far from Fredericksburg, which has some great historic and community places of interest. Our facilities are private and we only rent to one or 2 guests at a time. You can glamp in a trailer, or car camp in a nice campground with power and water or you can go primitive and pack in. All spaces include access to our classical 11 circuit labyrinth and backyard gardens where you can enjoy zen rock garden and other contemplative nature crafts. There are some great extra's here as well including an outdoor jacuzzi and indoor infrared sauna and massage chair. These spa features are another great way to get your zen on here. I offer Forest Bathing and individual retreat support sessions, an quarterly sweat lodge and also vision quest support if people would like to experience a solo nature immersion feast.

The best camping in Westmoreland State Park, VA guide

Overview

About

Spend a few days at this Potomac River retreat and you may want to stay forever. Horsehead Cliffs provide visitors with panoramic views above the river. Fish on the pier underneath an elegant Victorian gazebo. Hunt for fossilized shark teeth along the 1.5 miles of shoreline.

Battle with water birds for the best fish. The Potomac and Rock Spring Pond have plenty of fish for everyone. Find catfish, bream, bass, and crappie in the pond. The park's boathouse can help with bait, supplies, and boat rental for the day.

Expect majestic birds, including bald eagles, ospreys, kingfishers, herons, terns, and gulls, to fish for their dinner, too. Have binoculars handy to see the birds up close.

Seven trails cover 6 miles of the park. The beach trail has stunning views of the Potomac. Travel back in time 200 years with trips to Mount Vernon or Washington DC, with your campsite as a home base.

Around 74 standard and 41 electric campsites await. More than 30 cabins dot the landscape.
