A firepit to cozy up around and share stories, laughter, and marshmallows. This is more than just a parking spot – it’s a haven for rekindling connection. Why Choose This Spot?

Designed with couples in mind, it offers quiet time and the privacy you’ve been longing for – a perfect retreat for two. It’s a space where the lines between Mother Nature’s beauty and warm shelter blur.

When did you last sit quietly, holding each other, letting the worries of the world melt away? This isn’t just another campsite; it’s an invitation to reconnect. Imagine This… The crackle of a firepit warms the evening air as you wrap up in a blanket and share a quiet moment under a canopy of stars. The deck becomes your morning refuge, where coffee tastes better and smiles come easier. You feel the breeze whisper through the trees, and for once, there’s nothing to interrupt the peace. This is where love finds room to breathe and grow. It’s the perfect spot to fall in love all over again – with each other, with life, and with the simplicity of being together. Conveniently located with easy access to outdoor adventures and local attractions, yet far enough to give you the privacy you crave. Whether you want to explore the surroundings or simply stay put and soak in the tranquility, this spot is your ideal base. You deserve this time an you’ll rediscover the joy of connection.

Gratitude at the Mill Pond

2 sites · RVs, Tents30 acres · Heathsville, VA
In 1831 formerly Northern's Mill had an old mill house, dwelling house, outbuildings, mill pond and water courses with about 31 acres and was bought for an enormous amount of $10.00! At the working mill the owner's wife baked pies for the workers to enjoy while they waited for their ground grains (most likely corn, soybeans and wheat). The pond is also recognized as Courtney Mill Pond and Kissinger Mill Pond. Fires in the 1980's have claimed the building creating a perfect place for you to enjoy nature outside. Learn more about this land: Fresh and salt water surrounds a birding, fishing paradise with 5 acres to explore. Bald Eagles are a common siting. We offer a primitive camping experience in the heart of the Northern Neck.  The road is washed out and fresh water pond mostly drained. You will access from Mundy Point Road. This historical site had a working Mill built in the early 1800's. Please check out my friend's place nearby at Callao Brewery and Rivah Vineyards at the Grove!  Grab some fresh local veggies from one of the Amish stands and don't forget your tackle and bait at RW's. Camp 1 has the most room for car camping and groups close to the road and overlooking the pond. Camp 2 is a short hike to a private knoll overlooking the grassy marsh of Mill Creek, this is tidal water that flows to the Potomac. Welcome to Gratitude!
