Stories from the community

2 nights at Canter Lakes Farm

Sunset cliff fishing site was great! We had a 34’ travel trailer and took some maneuvering to get back in there but after that it was a breeze. Julie had very specific and detailed directions on how to get to the site and utilize the bathhouse. Did a little bit of fishing but no luck, saw a bunch of blue gill tho. For summer camping with kids I would highly suggest sometime of portable power but I would bet it’s beautiful in the fall. Bathhouse is nice could use some insulation and an a/c but it gets the job done.

Weekend Trip to Black Barn Farm

My girlfriend and I enjoyed our stay in the cozy room at the #5 Trehyee site, which overlooks a beautiful pond. We appreciated the layered natural canopy as the weather brought rain over the Fourth of July weekend. The sounds of nature and birds were wonderful throughout the mornings, evenings, and nights. I was pleasantly surprised by the property's genuine care and charming decor. We look forward to returning to visit the birds and explore more of this fantastic area in North Carolina.

Weekend Trip to Canter Lakes Farm

We enjoyed our camping - the space was private and large with a tree swing for the kids. I did not have to worry about being the "loud family" since there were no other campsites nearby. Kayaks were available for use and the kids loved meeting and petting the pony. The hosts, Julie and Scott were awesome and readily available.

Weekend Trip to JCO Campground at Lee Baysden Pond

Great getaway in a private area. Contessa and her husband were great host!

2 nights at The Secret Sanctuary Farm

James and Sola were very nice and welcoming! We stayed at Lokis lookout and enjoyed the serenity! Feeding the animals was a nice welcome to the property, and a great way to start off a quiet camping weekend. We found it super convenient that there was lots of camping equipment for cooking that was made available!

Weekend Trip to Canter Lakes Farm

I went with my two young boys and we all loved it! We got rained on while we were enjoying Wilmington but the property owners helped us tremendously by letting us use some bedding. They were amazing to communicate with and so helpful! The property was beautiful and we wished we had more time to explore it. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to JCO Campground at Lee Baysden Pond

This a great little spot with a very nice pond. The owners are amazing. They made it feel right at home. The pond is a good size to bass fish or just take a kayak for a stroll. A ++ place to relax.

1 night at Happy Haven

Just got back from an awesome RV trip to Sneads Ferry, North Carolina 🏖️! I can't believe how beautiful the area was, it was the perfect getaway. Our RV was super cozy, and it made the trip so much more enjoyable. The host was so friendly. Definitely will be coming back.

Weekend Trip to JCO Campground at Lee Baysden Pond

It has been a little while since our last visit and once again were very comfortable with our visit. Contessa was wonderful and greeted us on our arrival. Even though we knew where we needed to go she insisted on taking us to the site and made sure we were happy. Her son was great showing the way to the site on his bike. The site was clean and grassy. My dog loved it. He also enjoyed the swim in the lake. Thanks you for everything and we will be visiting again soon.

Weekend Trip to Crockett Landing

We very much enjoyed our time! The host Paul was extremely nice and gave us good recommendations for things to do in the area. We particularly enjoyed taking the kayaks he provides out on the water and being able to take a hot shower at the end of the day. There’s also an outdoor kitchen set up that made it super easy to do dishes after meals. We happen to be the only campers there during our one night stay since what would have been our neighbors had to leave early. Due to this it was very peaceful and quite except a small amount of traffic noise, but it honestly wasn’t bad at all!

Weekend Trip to JCO Campground at Lee Baysden Pond

We fell in love with campground, quiet and well laid out it was just what we needed. Plenty of space between sites freshly mowed our "front yard" stretched 80' to the water's edge. Wild Mallards nested along the water while Canadian Geese glided down to the surface and herons visited the edges in search of dinner. Other campers fished from the bank or quietly trolled the lake. Our site felt and looked like many of those ads the RV sellers push when trying to sell the RV lifestyle. Our host were two of the nicest people you will ever meet and have deep roots in this community. Step back in time and relax. We will be returning again later this year and staying longer. Thanks Contessa for letting this old couple drift back to our childhood in the rural south and feel right at home.

"HYTTE" is a Norwegian word that translates to "cabin" or "cottage' in English. Hytte are small, wooden houses that are often built in the countryside or forest. They are typically rustic and simple, with basic furniture and utilities like a table ,chairs, bed and heat source. They are not equipped with running water or electricity. Ours have solar! The idea of hytte includes freedom, frugality and a simple life. We offer #4 Steinhytte-the stone cabin, #5Trehytte- the wood cabin ,#8 Rosahvalhytte-the pink whale cabin and #9 Furuhytte-the pine cabin. Come embrace what the Scandinavian people have been doing for hundreds of years. Unplug, unwind, relax and enjoy nature. See it through the eyes of your childhood. Play. Live. Breathe. Welcome to our little piece of heaven! Our property offers a variety of activities for you to enjoy and a variety of camping options. Set up camp in a tent, a screened hammock, a car, a bus or RV, or stay in one of our primitive dry camping cabins. All camp areas are private from our home, with a porta potty and well water available. Please be aware-we are a working farm. There is sometimes noise and if you are sensitive bring earplugs, headphones, etc... The ducks chatter and talk the night away, the dogs do bark if Bambi-Baloo-Thumper or their chicken siblings hang too close to the pens. We have wildlife here! Owls, coyotes, bear and deer some are more musical than others. Please be aware! Never put your hands where you can't see! North Carolina has several poisonous snakes and although we don't see them often, we are playing in their playground-the great outdoors. There are mosquitoes, ticks, fire ants (esp. after a good rain) and critters outdoors. Always bring bug spray even if you think you may not need it! To avoid unwanted interaction, keep tents/screens on cabins zipped or closed when not in use. Make sure food is "buttoned up" for the night and be aware of any crumbs or scraps dropped on the ground or in cabins. This will invite unwanted guests of all types. Be aware and observant where you walk and use a flashlight or headlamp at night. We will not be responsible for injury, bites, stings, etc... Be smart and camp safe! There are MANY things to do in our area that are low cost to free, which is an added plus for any families coming to visit! Just ask me and I'll give you suggestions depending on your budget. Plenty of stuff for grown-ups too! Walmart Express is less than three miles away and Walmart Supercenter is less than five miles away. Smithfields BBQ, Chinese and Bojangles are close by.

Macon offers hot showers if you don't opt for our cold one! Hikers will love the nearby trails and abundant hiking options from poccosin (bogs) swamps to the Mountain to Sea Trail.

We offer mini tours of the animals when we feed up and kids like to help gather eggs. Just reserve the "Feeding time" and a head count.

There are buckets available to bring water to your site. Any vehicle over 6' will have to enter/exit on West (left) side of the pond due to low clearance. Cold water shower available. (Let me define...high tech redneck style; a hose with multi option spigot.) Our property is also conveniently located near the historic towns of Beaufort and New Bern, perfect for a day trip.

JCO Campground at Lee Baysden Pond

27 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents86 acres · Chinquapin, NC

Rated Finalist for Top Hipcamp in 2023 and 2024! This is a Family Venue! No Parties and/or drunknesses allowed. We strive to create an environment for nature viewing, stargazing, fishing, and unwinding in nature as camping should be. the historic pond was originally much smaller. We have records that date back to our 6th Great-Grandfather, Joab Fountain, who received a royal grant from the crown in 1773 for the property and then just a grist mill, blacksmith shop and old general store. The property was passed down through the Fountain family until the late 1910's. Originally a creek dammed up for the purpose of the mill it was later dug out in the late 1940's by Lee Baysden. In a long story (that can soon be found on our website/blog) the land was auctioned off in 2007. This landowner dug it out and made it the 22-acre lake that it is today. The property also features 2 smaller ponds and surrounded by woods, swamp, and farmed fields, a total of 84 acres. Divided by Duplin and Onslow County line making it very unique! Chinquapin, NC 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. In 2020 My husband Tyler, and I decided to buy the Pond when we saw the signs up for sale in the height of the pandemic. We created JCO, Juniper Creek Outfitters and Guide Service, fall 2020 and began to restore the lake and land to better than ever! We introduced our first Glamping A-Frame cabin in 2021 and in 2024 the Floating Cabin. We host community events such as fishing tournaments, music, movie nights, and food trucks. We also host special occasions in the cabins from engagements, honeymoons, birthdays anniversaries. Youth groups and scouts also welcome. Ask about special pricing. 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.

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.
