Land patented by Lt. Nicholas Spencer. A celebrity of his day. A merchant, a secretary, a govonor and president of the first colony of Virginia. I take great care in this land and continuing to work on weekly. The number of sites are limited so each camper feels the total remoteness and beauty of this land. It insures the land stays pristine and wild. With surrounding lands in conservation you are truly with nature when you arrive. Learn more about this land: Pitch your tent on historic "GREEN HILL", in the Northern Neck, Westmoreland county founded in 1653.The highest elevation in Mt. Holly. Access to Nomini Creek, for fishing and bird watching. Many bald eagles! Paddle along the creek where George Washington, Robert E. Lee and many other historical figures once navigated. Canoes, jon boat and kayaks available. Land first patented 1650 then by Lt. Nicholas Spencer 1665, secretary and president of Jamestown in 1683 and later governor. The abundance of large mature trees and their canopy help keep the area cool even on the hottest days. There are hiking trails available onsite and many more available at local parks/public grounds. Located close to many vineyards, breweries, restaurants, and historical landmarks such as George Washington's birthplace, Robert E. Lee's plantation and James Monroe birthplace. Also, a boat ramp is 5mins away to access the potomac river for fossil hunting and fishing!

The camp was not as advertised. The picture was of the same place but the campsite itself was a mess.

Historic "GREEN HILL" on the Nomini
This was a perfect spot for our family! We had the whole place to ourselves which made it extra special. We have 4 kids and 2 dogs who enjoyed exploring all the land! Mark was a fantastic host and accommodated us on such a short notice. He was also quick to respond, bringing what we needed when we ran out. We will definitely be back.
