Most of our visitors are dazzled at the beauty of the woods and water. We border 400 acres of the Santee Cooper Wildlife Management Area, and you can enjoy 180 degree views of the cove and waterfowl, from white herons to bald eagles.
Meals are a special experience for our guests, and you have a lot of delicious options. Our friendly outdoor cooking area features barbecues and a pizza oven (depending on when you book). This is a great place to make new friends.

You can grab a pizza for the outdoor pizza oven, or if you don’t want to cook after a long day, pick up a convenient crock-pot meal. Crock pots are included in the kitchenette hotel rooms. Just place a pre-made meal in the pot and dinner will be waiting for you when you get back from your lake adventures.
Our family restaurant is a local favorite and offers fried, fresh-caught catfish. We are open for three meals most days. You can have a hot breakfast starting at 6:00 am, and be on the water or in the woods at sunrise.
The restaurant crew is happy to deliver food to your room, RV, or campfire--and you might even talk our chef into grilling your catch.
If you don’t feel like hunting or fishing, Bells Marina & Resort has play spaces for the kids and relaxing spaces for adults. Join us for movie nights or just unwind at the community campfire.

I work full time as a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner plus have a side hobby making homemade jams and flavored goat cheese spreads. We love the peacefulness of where we live...although the chickens, ducks, turkeys, guinea fowl, peacocks, goats and horses do get a little loud come feeding time.

Heirloom Hamlet
4 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Ridgeland, SCAni, Fitch and I are typical people (mostly) who are running an experiment. We are trying to find out if a person can use their hands and their head to handcraft a little piece of heaven, with very little money. Three years ago we left our South Florida home studio and creative furniture business to pursue a new goal. We wanted to do something special while we still could...something different and interesting with our lives. Have we done that? You be the judge.
We set out to design and hand build an experience in environmentally friendly living that balances modern and old-world homestead features.
You will see us erecting micro-cabins, installing solar arrays, dry toilets and composting. We're woodworking, clay-forming and metal pounding. We are big believers in being mindful and respectful of our environment wherever possible, but also in being reasonable and balanced in that endeavor. So, we are incorporating both alternative and municipality utilities as they fit our homestead design.
Through good design, our goal is to show just how "normal" bio-compatible, small living can feel. We all have priorities and they will naturally vary greatly...and that's okay. But we don't believe that any of us should be so self-focused that we completely shut out the importance of being good to the earth and good to others.
To be completely transparent, though, we also have had a goal to inspire something good from within, in any onlooker. We've found it to be so fullfilling to identify real wants and needs from perceived ones, and then to work hard to literally, physically turn ideas into a reality.
It is a true challenge to turn off some of the modern world's noise and nail down what we personally really need and want from life, as opposed to what we have been trained to need and want. Even if we are among the few that can do that, it may be even more difficult to muster the courage to make the changes necessary to go and get that life.
Ani and I feel like this "happiness" word we hear so often has become such a buzz word that it has been overused (or at least misused) these days. We think that maybe more of us would feel more fullfilled if we were striving for "the pursuit of contentment" rather than the mystical "pursuit of happiness". Possibly then we'd feel a sense of control over our life and not be so aimlessly trying to get a hold on the abstract. This is the conclusion we have personally come to and it is where we've aimed our focus as we carve out our place.
At the very least we hope that our guests don't expect to find a common, and definitely not corporate, approach to living here, that they can appreciate some of our old-fashioned ways. We hope that as we cross paths, we won't be held to a business standard that we have worked very hard to remove ourselves from. We realized everyone has a right to be themselves, but our presentation at Heirloom Hamlet has been purposefully designed to be a relaxing getaway in a unique hideaway.

Long term stays (7 or more nights) please make contact before booking.
I was the first person to purchase property here in 1995 in what is known as Moultrie Plantation. This is a private property community with its own private dirt road. The plantation is rich in Civil War history and people still find arrowhead 's, Civil war buttons and other Civil War related items on the dirt roads where the soldiers marched through the plantation. It is a quiet, peaceful neighborhood where owners enjoy the country life.

JCO at Lee Baysden Pond
15 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents86 acres · NCThe pond was originally much smaller and a mill pond in the 1920's and features a long dam along one side. It is a 22 acre lake, 2 smaller ponds and surrounded by woods, swamp, and fields, a total of 90 acres.
The Lee Baysden Pond was originally owned by Mr. Lee Baysden himself and first opened for fishing in 1956. The store/office is the original detached kitchen from his homeplace, which is the white house just up the street. We still use this today and it has Mr. Lee Baysden's handwriting in the store that states opened June 1956. The pond was owned and fished until the late 1990's. A hurricane damaged the dam and land was sold sometime after. The next owner dug the pond into the lake it is today and fixed the dam. It was deemed private and no fishing was permitted during this time frame. In 2020 My husband Tyler, and I decided to buy the Pond when we saw the signs up for sale. It was way overgrown and covered in algae and duck weed, but we saw the potential and love for the lake in our community. We could not see it developed off into housing. We created JCO, Juniper Creek Outfitters and Guide Service, fall 2020 and began to restore the lake and land to better than ever! We also have cabins in the works for 2022. We have had several community events hosting fishing tournaments, fireworks, music, and food trucks. Our camp office/store is opened most weekends and fishing passes available 7 days a week online from sunrise-dark. Our lake features fishing for Bass, Crappie, Bream, Catfish, Bowfin, Panfish, and more. Check out our facebook page for all the latest news and catches! We are continually trying to make JCO and Lee Baysden Pond a great place in our community for friends and families!
