I purchased a 1960's ranch home and 4 acres over 5 years ago. I turned the home into The Fab 4 House, furnishing it with authentic Mid-century Modern furniture and naming each bedroom for 1 of the Beatles. I rent it out and it is great for events. However, I needed 1 bedroom accommodations so I purchased 3- 8'x40' shipping containers and turned them into tiny homes. You can rent 1 or all 3.

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.

Phillip’s place was perfect for a camping getaway with our 2 year old! The instructions to reach the campsite were super clear and everything we needed was provided. Would absolutely stay here again!

We loved camping at this peaceful and private hipcamp, complete with a stocked pond and plenty of room for the dogs to run off leash. The meadow is fenced on 3 sides which was a nice peace of mind having the dogs with us. My son and I fished the pond and we caught a bunch of small bass and sunfish/bluegill. It was great for my sons fishing confidence to catch something so easily! We brought our 14ft vintage Shasta (low ground clearance) and we had no trouble on the way in or turning around. We would definitely come back for quick easy trips close to the triangle!

Weekend Trip to Container Experience
As far as glamping goes, this is as nice as it gets. It felt more like an Airbnb, with the whole container being painted, decorated, and inclusive of bedding and towels. I had always wondered what it was like to stay in a converted shipping container and it felt very normal, and maybe a step up from a cabin. It's a good spot for a sleep and shower for a day or two, especially if you're looking to visit things in the local area. You'll hear the road a bit and dogs when people bring them, but it really is a good value. The bathroom has the light and fan on the same switch and the fan gets pretty loud. The water pressure is high, and you'll want to bring toiletries, but you get a hand towel, wash clothes and towels. Like others mentioned, the bed is really comfortable.

Camping next to the Capybara pond has been one of our families best weekends! Alison is great. We bought admission to the animal haven and equine rescue as well and it was fantastic! We will be back! Thank you for a great weekend Alison!

Our family loved camping at Parkton Place. Heather and Chris were great hosts. The views were beautiful and the property was nice and clean. Our kids had a wonderful time playing with their friendly dogs, fishing at the pond and loved feeding the farm animals. Thanks Heather and Chris!

Wonderful serene setting to camp. Private, peaceful and lovely. Nice campsite and fire pit overlooking the pond. Lots of frogs and birds serenading as the sun goes down and the stars come out. My pups exhausted themselves chasing dragonflies and butterflies. We all had an excellent time!

My family and I had a great experience at Sugarneck. Our dogs especially loved exploring the grounds. The tents are the perfect compromise between an authentic camping experience and modern conveniences. We will definitely be planning a return visit.

We had a great time at Alison’s campground & zoo. Our site was right next to lamas and capybaras are little walk away. It was so peaceful and relaxing. The zoo has lots of animals. Such a wonderful place for any family.

I had a really great stay here. Bekah was an incredible host—super responsive and genuinely helpful in guiding me to the exact spot to camp, which made everything feel easy right from the start.
The property itself is peaceful and well cared for, with a calm, quiet atmosphere that’s hard to find. My dog absolutely loved it too—plenty of space to roam and relax without feeling crowded or stressed.
One of the highlights was the trails on the property. They’re beautiful, easy to explore, and add a lot to the experience if you enjoy being outside and moving around a bit.
Overall, it felt like a thoughtful, welcoming place to stay. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, nature-filled spot with a great host.

Really nice piece of property. Host is super cool. Be prepared to bring in everything you need. We went with a group of eight, did some archery and rode bikes. Super chill. Would definitely go back!!

I was with a small group. We booked several sites and had the whole camp for our group. We had a great time. We gathered around the campfire to share stories and beverages. My tent vestibule faced the water. It was wonderful view to wake up to.
Lillington was a short drive to pick up supplies and eat at a diner.
Host Sean was friendly and came to visit and share his story.
Our group will probably make this and annual destination.

Phillip's property was just what we were looking for this weekend. Phillip was great at communicating details about his site. Our dog really enjoyed running around the field and swimming in the pond.
