(Note: no fireworks, crackers, sparklers, or garbage burning are permitted) The Spruill Farm belonged to the Spruill Family for over a hundred years and is now being set up as conservation easement protected land. It includes hardwood forest, swamp, a beautiful swimming beach on the Albemarle Sound - one of the largest freshwater sounds in the world-, acres of farmland, vegetable garden and perhaps the largest fig orchard for hundreds of miles around. The purpose of the Spruill Farm is to further environmental research, promote ecological education and sustainable practices, and provide access for the public to the ever-diminishing shoreline experience. Please enjoy the incredible sunsets and woodland views, while respecting the serenity of this unique gem on the inner-banks. Wildlife on the property include Red Fox, River Otter, and 95 species of birds, including Bald Eagles (2 nests on the farm), nesting Osprey, Wood Ducks. Visit the 'Spruill Farm Conservation Project' on inaturalist(dot)org to see all 95 species, and upload any images from your observations. Because it is a nature preserve, please read the guidelines and rules closely if you choose to book with us. If your expertise and interests coincide with the mission of the Farm, feel free to propose collaborative projects to julia@thepeanutfactory.org

Although a very windy night, it was quiet and nice by the water. I plan to stay again

We will be back
What an amazing stay right on the water! 10/10 we will be back to visit again. Nice folks! Plenty of firewood! And got to launch our canoe with ease right into the sound from camp.

Delightful
The campsite was beautiful! It was such a treat to pull into the farm and make our way to the site which was right on the waterfront. Julia, the host, was incredibly helpful. She made sure we had everything we needed, and responded immediately to any questions we had. It felt wonderful knowing that all the beautiful trees on the property will be preserved in perpetuity! Can't wait to return!

Everything about this beautiful Hipcamp is as described & photographed. Abundantly clear that the property is well cared for by the hosts; and they were super kind & helpful. After our first night, we sent a request to Julia for 2 additional nights… within just a few minutes, received her confirmation of extended stay…quick response so helpful! Found it hard to leave this unique spot…and looking forward to going back.
