Deck Site
Horse friends.
Galleywinter is a lovely camping experience in a perfect woodland setting on a fully functioning horse farm. Watching them graze and run throughout the afternoon and evening was very fun. The outdoor shower and tub alone are worth the trip! Gail was also very responsive and helpful, despite being under the weather. We will be returning soon.

The Barn at Galleywinter
We stayed in the barn on the most perfect weekend! It truly is a magical place. We did not come with the intention to commune with nature but it happened so organically. My only regret is not spending more time on the farm. We will definitely be back.
Highlights:
Living & sleeping with all the doors and windows open, my horse encounter with Meridian (&Gail), the outdoor shower, & the forest bath
My husband is a Backcountry camper and I am absolutely not outdoorsy. I thought that the composting toilet would be a test of endurance for me, but now I am left wondering, why aren't we all doing this?!
Initially, we (mostly husband) were slightly apprehensive about the proximity of the barn to the main house, but quickly realized how private the space truly is.
I can't wait to come back!

Forest Site
Gail's property is beautiful! The tent space, shower and composting toilet are all well kept. 10/10 would recommend.

Deck Site
We had an excellent stay at Galleywinter. A beautiful scenic and well maintained location. The deck site was perfect for all of our needs. We pitched our tent on the grass and set up our camping table and cooking station on the deck. It was very spacious. The amenities are pristine. Gail was very friendly and easy to coordinate with. Definitely highly recommend!

Meadow Site
Peaceful and Strategic
Galleywinter is a calm and relaxing site with lots of naturalized forest areas and plenty of bird life. The location is amazing - 5 minutes from several wineries and Blue Mountain Brewery, and not far from Crozet, Sugarhollow, Humpback Rocks, Walton's Mountain, Staunton and Charlottesville. As far as tent-camping goes, this is the only option located in the Afton area. There were no other campers at Galleywinter while we were there.
