Great location!

I camped at Paul's property while traveling for work. Great location, very secluded but close to town! Will definitely stay here next time I'm coming this way for work.

Site motorhome 2

Paul is a very gracious host and and stays in contact using Hipcamp text messages. The property is located near the South end of the Shenandoah National Park and is relatively quiet. We would recommend this location.

Private, Kind Host, Lots of Land

Paul was very accommodating; super friendly and flexible, while also being communicative and respectful. Paul had a big open field in the backyard of his property, which was great because I was able to just set up my tent on the sidelines (which on Memorial Day weekend was a godsend since I know it was a madhouse up in Shenandoah National Park) with no disruptions and with ease. There were facilities available on the property, and once again, Paul was so kind and helpful in making my camping stay a nice one. The only thing that I would say (and I don't fault Paul for this at all) is that there were a lot of bugs, which are not my thing (so there was a lot of running to my tent and trying to quickly close it up haha). But if you are fine with insects, this is a great campsite with a tremendous host. Thank you Paul for letting me stay at your property, and for being so understanding!

Site 4. near workshop

Paul has a beautiful space- it is large, peaceful, and private! Paul was a very accommodating host, who's passionate about his property. He's 12 minutes down the road from St.Marys National Wilderness park and about 20 minutes from the city making it a prime spot for your camping getaway and your vacation plans.

Virginia Homesteads

I really liked how Paul opened up ALL of his land for us to use. He showed us where to pick blackberries and took my girls for a ride on his 4 wheeler (after offering for me to take them on it… when I declined taking it he offered to take them.) He also was more than willing to take pictures of us which is something that’s always hard to do as a solo adult traveler with two little children. We also loved that we were able to see dear and lightning bugs while there. The accommodation are not “amazing” but they’re more than adequate and Paul was a real gem.
