If you're looking to unplug, spread out, and enjoy a quiet piece of land to yourself, Camp Waypoint is exactly that.
This is a private, wooded property offering a simple, no-frills camping experience—no hookups, no crowds, and no designated sites.

The land opens up at the front and gradually narrows toward the back, creating natural variation in space and privacy. Many guests enjoy the peaceful setting and the ability to truly disconnect while still having the convenience of nearby essentials.
While it feels tucked away, you’re just 7 minutes from Walmart, gas stations, and food if needed, and a short drive from East Carolina University, making this a great option for game days, events, or visiting family.
This is true primitive camping—bring everything you need and pack everything out when you leave.
Perfect for:
• Self-sufficient campers
• Tent camping
• Couples or solo travelers looking for quiet
• Quick overnight stays
• Anyone wanting a simple, peaceful place to land

We were so thankful that we found a spot at Red Farm. We had been on the road for 8 hours and really needed to land for the night. Monte was super nice and told us if we ended up coming back his way and the spots were taken, he would find a spot for us. Easy to find and had great services attached for a good price.

We had a great time. It wasn't very busy so it was pretty quiet and peaceful. Every campsite had views of the river and some had access to the river. The host was nice and checked on us after we had settled in. It was a short drive to refill water at Vollmer's farm(which also had coffee and ice cream!). Each site had its own portable toilet which was great. Will definitely be back to explore the river by kayak!

We had a great 3-night Easter/Anniversary getaway at Bright Star Farm in our little camper, Bonnie Sue. We enjoyed the country atmosphere, including being around the animals - horses, peacocks, chickens, etc. The location is easy to get to. Steve met us there as we arrived, showed us where to park, gave us info on the restroom location and supplied an electrical extension. The restroom was a nice sink and toilet, but no shower. Bonnie Sue has a shower, so no issue for us. Water pressure was great and everything worked well. We were going to go into New Bern, but ended up just enjoying the sunshine and peacefulness at the farm. We did visit Kinston one night to eat at Vivian Howard's restaurant, Chef & The Farmer, which was very good and unique. There is a Dollar General 5 miles away if you need anything, so that's good. Steve & Connie were great hosts. We will definitely go back to this location again in the future!

Jeff and Megan were great hosts, offering suggestions for local food and gas stations. Nice peaceful Hipcamp for our “halfway to the coast” stop.
