Welcome to our farm

A small town in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley
Hidden Valley Farm’s 470 acres of rolling hills and mountainous views
Settled on the outskirts of Raphine, a small town in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley, the farm has easily accessible and short connections to historic Lexington, Staunton and Charlottesville. The cottage is suitable for couples, single travelling adventurers, business travellers, families with children and small groups looking for a quiet place to immerge themselves. At the farm, you’ll be surrounded with nature, but conveniently located just minutes from Interstate I-81 and a short drive from town and many fun-filled adventures.

With limited cell service and unavailable access to WiFi at the farm, uninterrupted memories are waiting to be made! Early risers will enjoy spending mornings on the wrap around porch watching the sun rise.  Wander the farm and visit with many of the friendly animals and breathe in the fresh, country air. Keep watch for wildlife emerging from the forest’s edge while roasting marshmallows over a dancing fire.   As dusk settles in, the fireflies glow and play their own game of hide and seek. As you rest, look up into the twinkling sky as darkness falls and make a wish on a gleaming, shooting star!

Take a look around the farm

Our farm is nestled in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley, in Raphine.  With such a fantastic location, you have access to several historic towns to take a stroll around or head to Blue Ridge Parkway for a beautiful, scenic drive.  We also are in a remote location so cell service is not available, providing the most peaceful time on vacation.
