Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2023.
Welcome to our small Farm and Inn, nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Madison County, Virginia. Located just minutes from Shenandoah National Park, we offer intimate nature-inspired cottages and camping on our 120-acre working farm. Enjoy an evening under the stars with fireflies and a campfire after a long day hike, fly fishing on one of our beautiful trout steams or touring the local vineyards and breweries. We currently offer one cottage and a few campsites for our guests. Our campsites are all private, located acres apart with tables, chairs, firepits, some elevated sleeping areas, some hammock spots and a few with a roof. Many of our spots require walking away from your vehicle, short distances. We have three drive-in sites that will accommodate one or two vehicles. We do not allow RVs or trailers due to our narrow mountain driveway. Camper vans are welcome! Our farm store includes Animal Welfare Approved products such as Eggs, Chicken, Beef, Pork, Lamb and Dairy from the farm as well as produce, jams and mushrooms and other items from our local community. We offer camping essentials, local art, bike rentals, farm experiences and tours. The property has miles of trails along mountain spring-fed streams, a small pond and access to three private acres on the Robinson River, a stocked Trout stream, just 2 miles down the road. Our property is centrally located to White Oak Canyon and Old Rag Mountain trailheads in the Shenandoah National Park as well as many vineyards and breweries. Please check in with us about current rentals and camp availability. We are in the process of restoring an 1850s Chestnut log cabin, which will be available for our guests to rent as well as other cottages.

Butterfly Camp: Near Shenandoah NP
The campsites were laid out well and had great amenities. We took a walk down to the pond and saw their ducks, donkey, and friendly farm dog! Great place to stay.

Wisteria Camp near SNP
Stunning location! Great experience
Wow what a special place! We loved it here and wish we had more time to spend in this area. I wanted to check out the luray caverns on our way down the east coast on a road trip and this seemed like the best Hipcamp in the area. Etlan is a truely stunning valley with the most gorgeous farm land and houses I have ever seen. There is a brewery/winery within 3 mins of the campsite with food etc which is awesome if you want to get something close by! We got there a touch too late on a Sunday so went into sperryville for pizza which was some of the best pizza I have ever had. Jennifer was super kind and accommodating, she left the eggs I purchased from her at camp for me which was so nice. Super great experience!

Butterfly Camp: Near Shenandoah NP
We loved our time at Butterfly Camp! It was very peaceful and the view was incredible. Jennifer has thought of every detail-readily available firewood, dishwashing tools if you forgot them, and even cute lights for the paths around the site. If you forget anything, I'm certain that Jennifer has it available in the Farm Store. I personally loved that I could buy a couple of pieces of art by local artists in the store. Thanks, Jennifer, for a great stay!

Sparrow Hammock Camp
Great site with an excellent host.
This was a great camp site with tons of privacy for a weekend camp. The host was super responsive and accommodating. The property was beautiful with a few nice trails to hike.

Sawmill Cottage near Shenandoah NP
The Perfect Stay
Sawmill Cottage is a perfect stay. Comfortable house in the country with all great amenities you need. So great to unplug and sit around a warm fire on a cold night. Stayed for the holiday weekend to climb Old Rag early the next day and was the perfect stay. Looking forward to coming back in the spring.
