This was a 55-acre farm, split in half to accommodate a bypass through Charlottesville, so the previous owners had to give up half the land, and actually moved the house down to the other half of the property! They had to build a land bridge to get to the new home site, so they turned the bridge into a dam and created a beautiful large swimming pond, complete with beach and gazebo. My wife Stephanie and I bought the property in early 2017 and have turned it into a private horse farm, adding pastures, a riding ring, and 6-stall barn. There are ~21 horses who live on the property. The property is unique in that you can hardly see another house from anywhere on the property and yet we are only 2 miles from Barracks Rd. Shopping Center, and 4 miles from the University of Virginia.

Awesome campsite for 3 Dads and kids. Plenty of privacy, amenities were great, and it was close to Charlottesville.

Site 6 - Remote tent site
10/10! Easy to get to, just enough amenities, gorgeous, well-maintained land. Close enough to the city to be convenient but far and wooded enough to feel remote and relaxing. Bonus: sweet dogs on property!
