I had a wonderful camping experience here! The location is surprisingly close to downtown, yet it feels like a peaceful escape far from the city buzz. The hosts have two friendly horses, which added a charming touch to the stay. One of the highlights was watching fireflies at night — truly magical!
There are several designated camping spots to choose from, and they also allow access to the restroom in their home, which was very convenient. Right next to the site, there’s a scenic cycling and walking trail running along the Neuse River — perfect for a relaxing morning or evening stroll.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quick nature escape without leaving the city area!

Camping here was very pleasant. A nice quiet get away close to home for us but still felt like a get away.

Scott was an incredible host. With a limited window to secure land, Scott accommodated our large group of guys and made sure we were taken care of. HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you want a ton of land for activities, but want to be minutes away from the city

Loved everything about this place! The fields, forest, pond and stream were beautiful and clean. It was very private. The host was super; he gave use all the helpful and useful information about the site but kept it concise. We would definitely camp here again and in fact intend on it very soon!

Absolutely wonderful Stay! The host is an absolute joy. The property and horses are great ! We enjoy a wonderful convention with the host and she is so accommodating. We stayed here so we could enjoy a concert near by. There is so much to do within a short distance. Definitely will be back when we are in the area.

I loved staying here , it was so nice ! I love seeing the cattle and horses , park right at the corner and I watch the sunrise and sunset! I saw some fowls and ducks too ! And petting a little kitty on my way to the loo. The horse near the fence likes to come over and say hello ! Haha it took all of me not to pet them ! Careful on the drive into the ranch it’s very bumpy ! On my 2wd! I had my goldfish on my trip , he almost flew out ! Haha

Emma was very quick to respond to my many questions. The directions were very clear, and I was given many options of where to set up camp when I arrived. I felt extremely safe and enjoyed waking up to the horses on the next pasture.

Great experience at Gracie’s farm. The camping area next to the arena makes it easy to watch folks riding and working the horses. My daughter and I took a riding lesson in the morning that was a ton of fun; definitely recommend it if you stay. That being said it is a working farm so expect to have folks coming in and out to load/unload horses near the camping area.

We were looking for a safe / quiet place to stay in our campervan for a few nights close to the Neuse River Trail. This spot was perfect! Trail access is directly on the property (no need to ride or walk on main roads to get there). Emma and co were super responsive to our questions, and it was so nice to wake up to see the horses each morning!

I arrived by bicycle from the Greenway. There is a gate to access the farm without having to ride on a busy road. Emma met me with firewood! Camped under a shelter which kept the dew off my tent & bike. Emma was genuine and hospitable. I will return and tell other cyclists.
