Enjoying 8 acres of the simpler life with Renee and our children, 15 minutes north of Harrisonburg, Virginia. We love animals, planting gardens, preserving quality food, and hiking and camping in both of the world-famous national parks here. We are 4th year hosts, and immensely gratified to share all we can from this amazing Shenandoah Valley. For many adventure seekers, we have been a gateway to nearby attractions, while many of our guests come here specifically to enjoy a humble get-away in the woods with electricity, great Wi-Fi and a hot shower. There are several petting zoos near us, in case you want a little close-up exposure to some cute farm animals. We are located 45 minutes from the Shenandoah National Park. Nathan is an avid hiker and familiar with many fun outdoor attractions in the area. Please reach out to us, should you need any help planning your trip. Some great hikes: Trayfoot Mountain to Blackrock Summit from Port Republic Rd Elliot Knob and High Knob fire towers Fridley's gap swimming hole & overlook. Meems Covered Bridge in Mt. Jackson Wildflower Trail (see a long lost, 500-pound millstone) Blue Ridge Tunnel Hone Quarry falls Reddish Knob Emerald Pond Yellow Rock Cliff and Storybook Trail (Great overlooks!!) Please ask about scheduled group hikes as well, we would love to help you have a good time. Other fun things: Frontier Cultural Museum Back Home on the Farm Melrose Caverns Ruby's Arcade (awesome wood fired pizza, 150 year old Duck Pin game)

Kennedy Peak

Owners seemingly don’t care…

Upon arrival, the spot we booked nearly a month ago was taken by what looked like a long-term renter. We tried calling the host to no answer. We messaged the host who said “you’re fine at Crabtree”. We ended up parking at Crabtree Falls and were extremely disappointed with the overall scenario at Traveler’s meadow. We originally booked kennedy peak based on reviews and fit for our RV (30ft travel trailer). Crabtree falls was extremely unlevel and unkept. It clearly shows the host does not care about grounds maintenance. Our leveling jack was at the lowest point it could go and the RV rear was like 3ft off the ground and it was STILL unlevel. The grounds grass was very tall, possibly allowing fleas/ticks for your pets. There are random holes you may twist your ankle in and cannot see due to leaves on the ground. There is water & electric hookup, but sewer is one of those portable totes and they request that you contact them to dump. We wanted to dump the night before we left so we can leave early in the morning, but the host was unavailable so we had to drag the full tote uphill twice. Overall, we only booked this spot for its proximity to Shenandoah NP, but will not return. T-Mobile home internet was 180MBPS and cell service was 2 bars of 5GUC. Verizon was 1 bar LTE.

Crabtree Falls

Crab tree falls

Not what I expected based on pictures and write up describing it. Small RV spot right next to two other RV that I believe live there and right off the road, so you could hear cars coming and going. Also very close to neighbors whose dogs bark constantly. There was a bathroom in a closet like shed and similar to an RV toilet and sink and a separate shower right next to it, with a concrete floor. Just feel like it wasn’t accurately described but not out right fraudulent. No one bothered us and no problems other than the ground in our spot not being very level for camper.

High Knob

Loved our spot in the woods

We stayed at high knob on Nathan's land and absolutely loved our experience. He was very laid back and accommodating, provided all the essentials (shower, toilets, sink, trash etc) l. We loved the farm fresh eggs we got and the spot in nature. Would absolutely come back, thank you!

High Knob

Too much bad DIY.

The toilet and shower situation is not good. While they exist in the strictest sense they suffer from more creativity than quality. The shower walls are just bare wood. I don't know how they intend to keep it sanitary. Since the shower and stalls were built from scratch I don't understand why they didn't allow for more room. The RV toilet is a maze of plumbing with no instruction. The compost toilet is just a seat screwed into a cement slab sitting over a recycling bin of waste covered in wood chips. Like the shower, I don't understand how they intend to keep it at all sanitary unless they get in there and scrub the slab. Trash cans were completely full for several days until weekend campers arrived. I don't know what happened but it looks like someone ran into my tent. Dont pay attention to the map they have at the toilets. The instructions for check in say to close the gate but no one bothers. Likely because the gates are not mounted properly. The site I was on would have been very difficult to pitch a tent and sleep on floor because the grade of rock used to attempt to level the site was huge. thankfully I had a cut. Nearby site with what like like a cute bridge has some sort of rigged hand rail/rope that is mounted so poorly it is just a hazard thinking anyone might consider it usable support.

High Knob

Has potential, false advertising

Site was advertised as having some privacy, there’s was little to no privacy and the tent site had almost no flat spots to comfortably put a tent down. We accidentally booked the rv site rather than tent sites, but Nathan was kind and let us use the other available site. But unfortunately there was still not much space to put our tent flat without huge branches or rocks jutting out. Found lots of trash on the ground that my puppy kept picking up, which I don’t mind but I can see how that could be a concern for others with dogs.

Yellow Cliffs Mountain

Affordable family owned campground

Nice wooded campground with water, small shower, toilet, and dish washing station. My spot (Yellow Cliffs) was not level, so I didn't sleep well; however I walked around the campground and most of the other spots looked like they were terraced better. Nathan was friendly.
