"HYTTE" is a Norwegian word that translates to "cabin" or "cottage' in English. Hytte are small, wooden houses that are often built in the countryside or forest. They are typically rustic and simple, with basic furniture and utilities like a table ,chairs, bed and heat source. They are not equipped with running water or electricity. Ours have solar! The idea of hytte includes freedom, frugality and a simple life. We offer Steinhytte-the stone cabin, Trehytte- the wood cabin , Rosahvalhytte-the pink whale cabin and Furuhytte-the pine cabin. Come embrace what the Scandinavian people have been doing for hundreds of years. Unplug, unwind, relax and enjoy nature. See it through the eyes of your childhood. Play. Live. Breathe. Welcome to our little piece of heaven! Our property offers a variety of activities for you to enjoy and a variety of camping options. Set up camp in a tent, hammock, a car, a bus, or stay in one of our primitive dry camping cabins. All camp areas are private from our home, with a porta potty and well water available. Please be aware-we are a working farm. There is sometimes noise and if you are sensitive bring earplugs, headphones, etc... The ducks chatter and talk the night away, the dogs do bark if Bambi-Baloo-Thumper or their chicken siblings hang too close to the pens. We have wildlife here! Owls, coyotes, bear and deer some are more musical than others. Please be aware! Never put your hands where you can't see! North Carolina has several poisonous snakes and although we don't see them often, we are playing in their playground There are mosquitoes, ticks, fire ants (esp. after a good rain) and critters outdoors. Always bring bug spray even if you think you may not need it! To avoid unwanted interaction, keep tents/screens on cabins zipped or closed when not in use. Make sure food is "buttoned up" for the night and be aware of any crumbs or scraps dropped on the ground or in cabins. This will invite unwanted guests of all types. Be aware and observant where you walk and use a flashlight or headlamp at night. We will not be responsible for injury, bites, stings, etc... Be smart and camp safe! There are MANY things to do in our area that are low cost to free, which is an added plus for any families coming to visit! Just ask me and I'll give you suggestions depending on your budget. Plenty of stuff for grown-ups too! Walmart Express is less than three miles away and Walmart Supercenter is less than five miles away. Smithfields BBQ, Chinese and Bojangles are close by. There are two wonderful restaurants nearby El Mexicano and Riverside a Pizza/subs place that will deliver camp side too! Be sure to mention what site number you are camped! If you love the ocean, the beach is just a short distance away. Emerald Isle is ten miles away, Ft. Macon is twelve miles away. These both have public beaches and Ft. Macon offers hot showers if you don't opt for our cold one! Hikers will love the nearby trails and abundant hiking options from poccosin (bogs) swamps to the Mountain to Sea Trail. Our property is perfect for outdoor adventure and exploration. If you prefer a more relaxing stay, you can stay on our property and enjoy a refreshing swim in our pond or cozy up by a campfire. Bring your s'mores gear to belly up to a picnic table. Birdwatching is a popular activity here as we are a family-run bird farm with a variety of feathered friends including ducks, chickens, guineas, geese, turkey and even an emu or two! We offer mini tours of the animals when we feed up and kids like to help gather eggs. Just reserve the "Feeding time" and a head count. We are passionate about birds and love to share our knowledge with our guests. The porta toilet is located at the end of the emu pen and well water is available in front of the barn. Any vehicle over 6' will have to enter/exit on West (left) side of the pond due to low clearance. Cold water shower available. (Let me define...high tech redneck style; a hose with multi option spigot.) Our property is also conveniently located near the historic towns of Beaufort and New Bern, perfect for a day trip. There are nearby stores and farmers markets where you can get fresh veggies, and we are always willing to suggest places to go. You can also visit Fort Macon, Hammocks Beach, Carteret County Speedway, the NC Aquarium, local farms, live music at The Gardens and more. Go see a local mud bog on Saturday nights or check out the local Bogue Sound distillery and fabulous seafood restaurants, which is just a short drive away. Bring your boat because we have plenty of space to park and can direct you to whichever type of waterway you want to be on. There are nearby private fishing charters, horseback riding and ferry adventures to go see the ponies. Better yet go visit the NC Maritime Museum in Beaufort and get inspired to sign up to build your own boat. They offer excellent sea themed classes for the children during the summer. Sign up early because they fill up fast. Just one of our neat local treasures. We know people/locations to get you going for beach fishing, kayaking, hunting, and tons more. Don't forget there are many festivals, parades and floatillas nearby to enjoy. Mumfest in New Bern is always awesome and don't forget the NC Seafood Festival. During Winter carriage rides can be arranged through historical New Bern. We are open year-round, and Wintertime is a delight at the beach. Come visit us during the holiday season to enjoy the lights and cuddle up to a cozy campfire. The cabins are heated by propane, and we can have a tank ready for you when you arrive for an extra charge. A single 20 lb tank typically lasts four days. Light a luminary to float on the pond to make your New Year begin just right even just for a special occasion! We ask that no one smokes inside the cabins for the safety of yourself and allergies to other campers. Thank you in advance and please police your butts. We try to keep the area tidy. Please do not feed anything to our birds! Each species has a specialized diet and just one food item wrong could kill them. We love sharing our pets with you and Miss Jennifer is always willing to answer questions. Make sure to get the coupon codes for the active military, vets, repeat campers! So come unwind, unplug, and enjoy the simple pleasures of life in nature. Remember how to play and have fun like in your childhood. We look forward to hosting you!

"Bloffe"- the bluff

100%
(46)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 12 ft
Small spot ideal for one small tent or car camping. Log bench and firepit. Level grassy elevation. This is a smaller site and gives access to the grill and additional seating at the South end of the pond by the swimming area. It is not suitable for a larger vehicle. Direct access to the pond. We block all traffic on the West side so no one drives thru your camp. Heat up a fire and cook your meal directly on top of the antique firebox using only foil. Take a nighttime dip in the pond before you tuck in for the night. Make yourself a drink, cozy by the fire and watch the solar fairy lights come on around the pond.

"Orkenhytte"-Out West cabin

100%
(2)
Quirky · Sleeps 1
Orkenhytte translates to "West cabin". Not only is it located on the western side of our property but it was inspired from being fresh back from a cross-country camp trip starting in Utah. I was thinking only of desert, cactus and all the little things that I relate to that environment for me. Aliens, dinosaurs, sand and bright Latino colors. Vibrancy! So based on that, you can come stay in our 6 x 8 modified Starlight Meteorite pop up style camper to see if you grab my love for the WEST! It a small, cozy space with a desert themed decor. Scoop up one of the drums to try a new beat, grab a pen and notebook to write a poem or just take a nap in the hammock. (Available hammock and hammock chair are stowed inside in the red end table drawer.) There is a Kokopelli table available with a portable charcoal grill for your cooking. Inside are two solar powered lights to do any late-night coloring. Lay in the bed and watch the mini prayer flags catch a breeze from the pond. Think on good things and be grateful for our beautiful planet. Tucked in the edge of the woods behind the pond. This site is located directly across from site #8-Rosahvalhytte. Its great if you just need the extra bed for a body in conjunction with the other cabin. There is a wall, so you have privacy if your camping solo. Direct access to the trail to the pond. There is NO firepit available at this site. Service dog only. This is a small space designed for sleeping.

"Rosahvalhytte-Pink whale cabin

100%
(2)
Cabin · Sleeps 2
Site #8 is privately tucked in the pond corner of the woods behind the pond. There is zero pond view just lots of lovely trees. Truly tucked away and private you will hear some of our farm sounds but are more likely to hear the owls and coyotes. This cabin offers the sea theme in the woods. Holly got to choose the decos for this one. There are some games, cards, and an old oil lamp that reflects beautiful light at night in the cabin. Turn on the overhead "fairy seaweed" and feel the magic of staying in a tiny space. It offers a Twin XL bed and standard twin trundle below. There's a proper bench and small counterspace to write, draw and muse if needed. We are still working on the exterior so be patient with us. Solar is going to be installed soon. We have pre-gamed a stay and the granddaughters give it a five thumbs up. We ask that no cooking or smoking in done inside the cabin! If you move or rearrange anything inside or outside the cabin please put it back where you found it!
