Peaceful RV & Tent Site on Farm‑Land in Central North Carolina — “Greenfield”
Welcome to Greenfield — a quiet, 6‑acre private retreat nestled near Stoney Creek, just outside Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Our spot is only about an hour from Goldsboro, Greenville, or Raleigh, making it a convenient escape while still offering real country charm.
Whether you bring an RV, a camper, or a tent, you’ll enjoy full hookups (electric, water, and sewer) and a private driveway for easy access. There’s room for one camper, and space to stretch out comfortably while soaking in the farm‑land setting. Campfires are allowed, and you’re welcome to bring your pet — the land is pet‑friendly and offers plenty of open space.
You’ll be surrounded by a mix of woods, a pond, and a creek running through the property, giving you a true “escape‑to-nature” vibe. It’s a great spot for a couple, a small group, or a solo traveler seeking peace, privacy, and a relaxed pace.
At night, enjoy peaceful surroundings — away from city noise but still close enough to city conveniences if you need supplies or want a change of scene. This spot is ideal for people wanting simple comfort, open skies, and a serene countryside experience.
Book your stay at Greenfield and enjoy a quiet retreat in the heart of North Carolina — perfect for reconnecting with nature, unwinding by a fire, and waking up to the gentle rhythm of pond, creek, and countryside.

Our farm is a beautiful, private 25 acres with an 1830s house, outbuildings, animals, orchards, gardens, pastures, old trees, wildlife habitat, a spring, and woods. Here you can relax; watch nature; meet our chickens, goats, horse, cats, and dog; take guided tours to learn about the farm, animals, plants, archaeology, and history or learn to make mead; and purchase eggs and homegrown seasonal food and products. Listen to birdsong and watch clouds during the day, wander a path through our 5 acres of woods, see fireflies in the evening, and star watch at night. Nearby are hiking, horseback riding, historical sites, fishing, antiques, breweries, shooting, and more.
We are located in a rural area and have many different domesticated and wild animals so you may hear diverse animal noises and see or smell animal poop, although we try to keep things clean and tidy. Our neighbors have dogs, cattle, and chickens/roosters and occasionally shoot guns during daylight hours (one neighbor is a sporting club with skeet shooting and hunting dogs) but typically our farm is a quiet and peaceful place. We mow regularly and our rooster and chicken ladies wander far and wide eating bugs but, in the summer, they can't get every mosquito and tick so please plan accordingly for your own comfort.

What an amazing place and amazing hosts. Absolutely beautiful and serene with a peaceful ambiance beyond compare. An abundance of space that allows you to just enjoy the outdoors with almost anything you can bring along for fun. I loved every second and I will definitely return and if you’d like to see this amazing place before you go you can find the video on my YouTube channel “Finding Jay” for more.

I love this farm space and Rebecca who runs it. I rented the pine run site. Spacious and comfortable. Walks around the farms are beautiful feeding a friendly horse and saying hi to the goats and chickens.
Rebecca offers breakfasts st a reasonable fee but i missed that during my second visit here.
You cant miss out on visiting here.

First time taking the camper out and I’m so glad we chose this place! Brought our 2 pups with us and they had a blast. Our fur babies were pooped from running around and getting all the snuffs in! I think what made this so enjoyable was the sense of security and Bekah’s thorough communication. Will definitely be visiting again!

The site was lovely, but not as private as I’d hoped. I could see the neighbors, and hear everything from the neighboring campers on the other side of the barn. The property was beautiful. My dog really enjoyed walking around and seeing the donkeys and such. I never did locate the trail. If you pay extra for it, like I did, ask for specific directions for it.

Bekah's camping site was beautiful, my tent was in a circle of trees, pines and hardwoods. The gentle breezes set the stage for a truly relaxing couple of days. Lots of birds to listen to, not buggy, in beautiful meadow. I would definitely stay again. Bekah was warm and friendly, letting me know where to find local services and that she was home and nearby if I had any questions. Just lovely.

I loved tent camping at pine valley location. The long morning walk to the barn was perfect with a cup of coffee. Rebecca went above and beyond for my 7 and 8 year old. Lots of exploring and interaction with the animals. We didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to go back. Thanks for sharing your piece of heaven with us Rebecca!

This is just what we are looking for in a Hipcamp. Large property with plenty of privacy, well away from the road. We were able to park in the woods and it felt like we were the only ones there. The Trails on the property were convenient to walk our dog. Host was very friendly and accommodating.

Emma was so accommodating at the last minute!! I accidentally drove a bit out of my way and thankfully she welcomed me in at 8pm with little notice. She wrote out detailed instructions for me to get into the camp.
Her son, James, was awesome and gave me a tour of their place. He even introduced me to the horses. The land was seriously so special, and something I won’t forget. I’m so grateful I got to stay here and experience it.
Thank you, Emma and James!
