When you arrive you pull into what looks like a junk yard abandoned cars and paving equipment. We were told to watch out it may be a little muddy. We were unable to reach our site due to the mud and had to sleep next to the junk yard. Trying to pull out in the morning we got stuck in the mud. A yard full of trucks and a working farm they would not help and had to call a tow truck. $200 + later we were rolling. The pond looked beautiful from a distance and the field was beautiful.
We absolutely loved our stay here at the Burton Family Farm. We originally planned to stay just a few days, but ended up extending our stay to a week because of how peaceful and wonderful this spot was.
We parked by the pond and it was beautiful, with geese, ducks and storks visiting the pond and being surrounded by trees changing colors. Town is only a few minutes away with plenty of food, stores, and grocery options. Even with town close by, it was quiet and secluded. D.C is only an hour away and we took a day trip out there then had a relaxing spot to come back too.
Tammy was an amazing host and made our stay exceptional! We can’t recommend Burtons Family Farm enough and will definitely be back next time we come through Fredericksburg!!
