Moonrise Farmstead offers a peaceful and accessible camping experience close to Richmond, featuring flat sites with large fire rings and a clean outhouse. Guests enjoy the open space, beautiful sunrises, and opportunities to interact with farm animals like goats and chickens. The hosts, Meg and Ben, are noted for their friendliness and helpfulness, ensuring a welcoming stay. While the road noise can be prominent, it tends to lessen at night, making for a serene environment to stargaze or enjoy a quiet evening by the fire.
The campsite at Meg and Ben’s farm is truly a sanctuary in Virginia. Not only is the set up perfect for a scenic getaway, but the hospitality that the hosts create is unmatched. I will be coming back for another trips. Lois
Great place to bring the family. The goats are fun and a highlight, the sky is bright. It’s close to kings dominion so it’s easy to get to from Richmond. no trees, so no hammock camping. Would definitely come back.
The kids and I had a great overnight trip to Moonrise Farmstead! The sites are mostly flat, with a nice fire ring and spool table at each site. We were the only ones there, so it was very private. There is a very nice outhouse convenient to all 3 sites. We took a quick stroll to the beaver pond and checked out the goats and chickens. The girls loved watching the baby goats play! Beautiful sunrise, sunset, and stargazing. Ben was a gracious host, very accommodating and friendly. We will be back!
So easy, clean, and accessible. The sites were all exactly as described. I wish we had spent more time, but we were just passing through and appreciated the ability to make a night of arrival reservation. The composting toilet was great for a picky kiddo I was traveling with and he loved freshening it up with pine shavings. Thanks for having us!
We tent camped in site 1, and it was a lovely night. The fire ring is large and very well made. Great place for star gazing. Clean site, well maintained and beautiful property. The outhouse was clean and did not smell at all.
Great farmstead camp spot🙂 nicely kept areas and the cable reels are good for staging equipment. You don't have to drive super far from the highway but there's enough woods around to dampen much of the noise.
