Dragonfly Landing at Tranter’s Creek

1 site · RV2 acres · Greenville, NC

Dragonfly Landing is 2.59 acres of land in rural Eastern North Carolina. I live with my family on the eastern side of the property, and the camp site is on the western side. Tranter’s Creek is a beautiful, secluded, fairly narrow but deep creek that is perfect for kayaking, fishing, and wildlife viewing. I have lived here for 19 years, and I love watching the native plants and animals throughout the seasons. Dragonflies are abundant during the spring and summer months, and we have a lovely population of fireflies in late summer. There is a large, unused building near the campsite that serves as a pack house in the early 1900s and then as a clogging club in the 70s.Learn more about this land:Park your self-contained RV on the flat land, and you are right next to Tranter’s Creek which is excellent for kayaking, fishing, and wildlife watching. While there are a few houses behind me, my land faces the creek, and there are no other houses on the creek, so you will be able to enjoy the view. Common wildlife seen here are eagles, herons, the occasional anhinga, river otters, amphibians, and reptiles. The creek itself is about 15 feet deep in the middle. Common fish in the creek are bream. We also have crawfish! There is ample low space to put in your kayaks, and the creek is navigable and beautiful. There are no other houses on the creek in the general vicinity, so your exploring will be quiet and peaceful. My land is fully fenced, so there is no on site traffic of any kind other than my family of three. Outside the fence is farmland and low lying forest. My landscaping is minimal as I prefer the natural state of the flora and fauna. It is a nature lovers’ dream. We are centrally located between Greenville, Washington, and Williamston. We are a 15-20 minute drive from Greenville, NC, home of ECU and many locally owned restaurants and breweries. We are also a 15-20 minute drive from Washington, NC, with its gorgeous waterfront on the Pamlico, it’s many restaurants, and it’s brand new breweries and gin distillery. Williamston, home of the AG Center, is also 15 minutes away. I do have dogs, but they will not be loose during your stay.
