Our 1850 home overlooks our 23 acres that we are happy to share with you.

I am grateful for the blessings we have been given and look forward to meeting you! We now have two parking spaces with power (110v, 20amp), water, and a dump station. If you need to use the power we ask that you pay a small service charge ($20) to help us recoup the cost of installing it and pay for the power. The water line typically has a little air in it, so we recommend running it for about 30 seconds until it runs normal before hooking up your hose. If you come in the summer/fall you can enjoy the large field of wildflowers. Great for pictures! You are welcome to take a walk through the gate and "sit a spell" by the pond in the Adirondack chairs, or enjoy a fire in the provided firepit by the parking area. We can fit three guests, but if its booked just contact us and we will try to sort you out. Our spots do not allow for pull through parking. Please note, we are an active honey farm. That means there are going to be bees flying around. If you are allergic to bees, please find another place to stay.

July 6th possible a small celebration. The historic 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 farmed fields, a total of 90 acres. Divided by Duplin and Onslow County line making it very unique! Chinquapin, NC 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. 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 our first Glamping A-Frame cabin available. We have had several community events hosting fishing tournaments, fireworks, music, and food trucks. Our camp office/store is opened most weekends or by check-in requests and fishing passes available 7 days a week online from sunrise-dark. Our lake features fishing for Bass, Crappie, Bream, Catfish, Bowfin, varieties of Panfish, and more. Check out our Facebook page (JCO Campground at Lee Baysden Pond) for all the latest news and catches! We have tagged bass that have been released back into the lake. Let us know if you catch one so we can record it! We are continually trying to make JCO and Lee Baysden Pond a great place in our community for friends and families! Enjoy the great outdoors unplugging from all the daily devices of reality. Enjoy bird watching for ducks, geese, heron, osprey or occasional eagle, owls, turkey, and more.

Nick’s Nook

5 sites · Lodging, Tents13 acres · Chinquapin, NC

Our little private campground is a hidden jewel in the making. Each campsite is private. We are not a parking lot like so many campgrounds are these days. We are still currently working on infrastructure but are willing to host campers that are self sufficient at a reduced rate for now. We do have a fun play ground, hiking trails, a steam we lovingly named Alligator Gore (to keep the little ones out of the mud). We are pet friendly. Each site has a fire ring or fire pit. We have a full bathroom available. We have a small camp store. We have group camp sites, pull through RV / Camper sites and a few glamping cabins. Located only 40 minutes from the NC coast and much more affordable and less crowded. We are still growing so we do not have a pool yet but will have one in the future. We do have a kids and youth program with weekly crafts and other activities. Picnic tables are available on some sites. Almost across the street is a wonderful boat ramp and fishing spot on the Cape Fear River. Canoe down to a sand bank about a mile down river and have a romantic picnic. A Celtic themed restaurant, the Mad Boar, is just a 10 minute drive if you are looking for a unique farm to table experience. And Duplin Winery is just 15 minutes away with tastings and tours. Located just 10 minutes from I-40 off US 41 we are easily found. A diamond in the rough.

Secret Garden Bees

1 site · RV23 acres · Linden, NC

Welcome to our Farm! Please read ALL information below and watch our video tour here: https://youtu.be/9RVml5psbZ8 Secret Garden Bees is a Veteran Owned active honey farm nestled in a quiet, rural area outside Fayetteville, North Carolina. Enjoy fresh, raw honey, farm produced jelly, fresh eggs, and enjoy our large family of ducks, chickens, farm dogs, and of course, honeybees. Our 1850 home overlooks our 23 acres that we are happy to share with you. I started keeping bees as a way to help treat my PTSD/Anxiety from my time in the Army Bomb squad and was able to grow it into a business that supports my family. I am grateful for the blessings we have been given and look forward to meeting you! We now have two parking spaces with power (110v, 20amp), water, and a dump station. If you need to use the power we ask that you pay a small service charge ($20) to help us recoup the cost of installing it and pay for the power. The water line typically has a little air in it, so we recommend running it for about 30 seconds until it runs normal before hooking up your hose. If you come in the summer/fall you can enjoy the large field of wildflowers. Great for pictures! You are welcome to take a walk through the gate and "sit a spell" by the pond in the Adirondack chairs, or enjoy a fire in the provided firepit by the parking area. We can fit three guests, but if its booked just contact us and we will try to sort you out. Our spots do not allow for pull through parking. Please note, we are an active honey farm. That means there are going to be bees flying around. If you are allergic to bees, please find another place to stay.
