R.O.S.A. Land stands for Rare Occaneechi Saponi Alluvial Land-based retreat and campground offering individuals and small groups a place for rest, exploration, sanctuary, and grounding. Equal parts woodland, floodplain wetland and pastureland, R.O.S.A land is stewarding 23 acres of ecological magical oasis on a tributary of the Upper Tar River in an Aquatic Habitat deemed an important NC Natural Heritage area of the Piedmont of North Carolina. Rare mussel species and amphibians live here. Come see for yourself! This is a queer-stewarded rematriation project. This land is co-owned by MK of Handewa Farms and K Cox, Steward of the Respite and will be passed on to her seven children, farm family of land partners, Handewa Farms. We offer nature-based immersion for artists, healers, cultural and frontline organizers and their families taking time for restful resistance. It is a triptyech of woods, water and pastureland butting up against an untouched wild old hardwood forest - a combination unlikley found in the PIedmont- nestled among small tobacco, horse and hay farms in the Southeast corner of Granville County between Oxford and Roxboro in the beautiful PIedmont of North Carolina.

Big Beech Creekside (#3)

Respite in the round is one of my favorite places to be! Site 3 is the perfect camp site! Being able to listen to the creek all night is so healing. Respite in the round is one of my favorite things about living in this area. A quick and scenic drive (35mins) from North Durham. You won’t regret taking some time to slow down by reserving respite in the round. Cox is a fantastic host and what she and her community has done to curate this space is so special.

Beautiful space, privacy was amazing! We had a great time. It was our first camping trip and I wouldn’t change a thing! Thanks so much, Kristen!

Comfy bed and beautiful surroundings. If it's a really cold night, bring an extra heater.

Great spot right on the creek. You do have to walk past the house to get to the site, but it was still quiet. The shower and bathhouse were great and well lit at night. The trail along the creek is a lovely walk through the property.

Back Country Canopy (#4)

Land was spacious and all campsites weren’t super close so you didn’t feel like you were intruding on anyone’s space. Campsite four had a nice little trail to walk down too and a nice hill to help break the wind. Warning though, as to be expected, the little trail does get slick when it rains.
