The Guinea farm is 18 acres of feild and forest on the rural middle pennensula. Only 1 mile from 2 separate secluded beaches and a boat launch. There is verly little traffic or light polution here, nature is at your fingertips. Come visit the farm and experience agrotourism at it's finest. Pick your own veggies in the community garden and meet the Guinea fowl! Enjoy the windernes and learn about the local ecosystem here on the middle pennensula. There are 3 sites spaced out across the 18 acres set apart for privacy. Wisteria is a primative site closer to the entrance gate. Trilogy is a suspended tree tent in the pines 700' beyond that and seperated by dense forest. Stargazer Tiny cabin is an offgrid rustic camping cabin on the back side of the property. Each site is surronded by several acres of forest and close to the edge of a large feild. There are romaing guinea fowl that may come make a very loud appearance as they canvas the property eating bugs. Deer, Turkeys, Bald Eagles, foxes, and other wildlife are common guests also. Mid-summer is what I call frog season, Tree frogs are abundant and provide a wonderful soundtrack. There are free to use bicycles, an axe throwing board, and cornhole boards available. 4 miles from shopping and dining in Mathews Virginia, 15 miles to Gwynn Island. Gwynn's Island is an island located in the Chesapeake Bay off of Virginia's Middle Peninsula. The island is located in the northeast part of Mathews County, south of the mouth of the Piankatank River. It is connected to the rest of the county by a swing bridge over Milford Haven.

Stargazer Tiny Cabin

I’ve stayed here twice in the treehouse and the tiny cabin and both are amazing! Its like home away from home but add nature to the mix. I’m thankful I got to make my last memorie here with my fur baby Teddy and we came back to honor him once more. The beach was very beautiful in the morning for the sunrise and if you ever need anything cause you forgot to bring it, there’s a dollar general like 5 min drive away. It’s a great place to get off your devices but have no fear there is Roku lol and WiFi and it’s great!

Wisteria Treehouse

We loved our stay at Ian’s treehouse. It was quiet, close access to beaches and even had USB port connectivity for powering devices. We took advantage of the propane heater on a cold night — thank you!

Stargazer Tiny Cabin

This was our 3rd trip to Ian's place. Second time in the cabin. Even though it was sooooo cold Saturday night and Sunday morning, we still had a freaking blast! Like always, Ian was amazing. We requested more firewood to stay warm and he stopped what he was doing to cut some and bring it back to us. We enjoyed seeing and holding the birds. He has lots and lots of chickens right now! Somehow we managed to fit 3 people and 3 dogs in the cabin and stayed warm. I can't recommend this place enough! We have yet to find a place we like quite this much. Can't wait to come back!

A Truly Wonderful Experience

Stargazer Tiny Cabin

My wife and I had a absolutely wonderful time staying at the Stargazer Cabin. Ian was very attentive and has truly thought of everything when he built this cabin. We had no problems with the solar power even though it was cloudy and we were nice and warm all night thanks to the diesel heater. The kitchen was fully equipped with any cookware you would need and we also did a little cooking over the fire pit as well. We definitely plan on coming back with some friends. Thanks for a great time, Ian!
