Peace and quiet equals “Solitude at my farm. I’m just like you. I want to camp at a quiet place in the country where it’s plenty of acres and no houses to look at and a clean bathroom and shower. Well it’s here. I’m Located in Wakefield Virginia. If you’re traveling to Virginia Beach I’m one hour away. From my farm there is a free ferry in Scotland where the ferry departs to Williamsburg just 30 minutes. At my farm I have 5 sites for tent/camping so it’s spaced appropriately apart I have 2 Rv sites totally away for their privacy and a new mini house also properly spaced away. All have a clean picnic table and a fire pit. 100 feet away you’ll find that clean bathroom, shower and a wash station for hygiene. You’ll see the love I put into this and because I love it and my prior guests love it, which means it may be right for you also. In the town of Wakefield you’ll find gas stations, dollar stores, a Value food market and if you want (to go) food we have that also. Plus it’s home to The Virginia Diner. Amenities include toilet access, a shower, trash disposal, picnic tables, and potable water. Pets are allowed, as are campfires.

Best host - perfect campground!
Marvyn’s campsite has everything needed for a peaceful camping experience 30 amp hookup, water hose, bathroom and hot shower + fast free internet. To add icing to the cake, Marvyn is very friendly and helpful giving us directions to take the free ferry across the James River to visit Williamsburg & Jamestown. Highly recommended!

Peace and Quiet
I had a perfect visit. The property is easy to find, beautiful farmland, and quiet. The hosts are helpful and attentive. I especially enjoyed watching the sun rise above the trees across the field. I also appreciate the clean and comfortable bathroom with shower.
