R.O.S.A. Land stands for Rare Occaneechi Saponi Alluvial Land-based retreat and campground offering individuals and small groups a place for rest, exploration, sanctuary, and grounding. Equal parts woodland, floodplain wetland and pastureland, R.O.S.A land is stewarding 23 acres of ecological magical oasis on a tributary of the Upper Tar River in an Aquatic Habitat deemed an important NC Natural Heritage area of the Piedmont of North Carolina. Rare mussel species and amphibians live here. Come see for yourself! This is a queer-stewarded, solidarity-focused rematriation project. This land is co-deeded to MK of Handewa Farms and owned at present by K Cox, Steward of the Respite and will be passed on to MK and her seven Afro-Indigenous children once the Roundhouse is paid down. In the meantime, an intentional community of farmhub tenants, visitors, campers and Handewa Farm members all co-habitate on the land together. We offer nature-based immersion for artists, healers, cultural and frontline organizers and their families taking time for restful resistance. It is a triptyech of woods, water and pastureland butting up against an untouched wild old hardwood forest - a combination unlikley found in the PIedmont- nestled among small tobacco, horse and hay farms in the Southeast corner of Granville County between Oxford and Roxboro in the beautiful PIedmont of North Carolina.

The site was pleasant! We went in late spring so having plenty of shade and the creek running through was quite helpful! There's plenty of space here, so that wasn't a problem. The facilities (toilet, shower) are a few minutes walk away. Having additional firewood on-site available for purchase was very helpful, and cheaper than retail. The walk down from the parking area and the facilities is a bit steep, so make sure you have plenty of tread on your shoes/boots, and if you have balance issues you might want to look into a different site. It can also be slippery on wet days, but there was no issue when it is dry. The location overall was nice too, it's fairly close to a couple good sized small towns, and only an hour or so outside of Raleigh and Durham. Overall a very nice place to camp!

Super AWESOME Place
When you are trying out a new location. You never know what you are going to get. This place was way more than I could have asked for. Site #3 was quiet, shaded, and the platform to set your tent up on was a nice touch. I will definitely do this place again. Though I really want to stay in the tree house next time. Looked super cool. Thanks for having me Kristen, and hope to travel back there soon.

Beautiful Getaway
We had a wonderful time at our one night stay. We played in the water, used the trails, built a fire, and met some truly wonderful people. The communication was impeccable, and we will 100% be back!

The site was very well put together with lots of shade. The directions on the app were clear and they had an excellent stock of firewood ready to go. I'd definitely like to go back at some point.

The camping site is absolutely beautiful as well as the general atmosphere of the land. The creek/river gurgling was very soothing. Lots of beautiful wildflowers and cool plants around. Hosts were super helpful and prompt to respond to any questions I had. The only thing I would say was strange was that the water on the shower and the water basin outside had a bit of an eggy smell.
