Hidden Orchard

Boutique Campground in a Hidden Orchard
We are a boutique campground tucked away in a hidden orchard. The well-groomed property sits on a small peninsula surrounded by water on three sides. The creeks around us contain small reds, trout, mullet, gar, and various other species. It’s great fishing for kids, and the area is known for much larger fish if you have a boat.
(Note: we don’t have a boat ramp, but kayaks and paddleboards can be launched easily from shore.) The water is brackish, and locals typically don’t swim in it.
We can accommodate up to eight full-size RVs in drive-through sites (up to 55' in length). Tow vehicles can be detached and parked separately. We can also host four trucks or vans up to 25' in length in back-in sites. RV slots have 50A power and water, while truck and van sites have 30A power and water.
We also offer one primitive tent site, with three to four more planned, and a glamping tent coming in Spring 2026. All sites include picnic tables and fire pits, and tent campers are welcome to use RV sites.
Please note there isn’t much shade, so it can get hot in the middle of summer. This may be fine for RVs, but tent campers should keep an eye on temperatures. Spring, fall, and early winter are especially pleasant — perfect for sitting around a campfire under the stars. With very little light pollution, stargazing is excellent. Small solar torches provide a soft glow at night, but we recommend bringing a flashlight for walking after dark.
Our bathhouse includes toilets and sinks. We do not currently have showers, but we’re working on adding them soon.
As for location, we’re only a 12-minute drive from Oriental, the sailing capital of North Carolina — a charming, friendly town of just 999 residents. Despite its small size, Oriental hosts many local events throughout the year. About 15 minutes in the other direction, you’ll find larger stores like Walmart, as well as health services, laundromats, car washes, and more.
We’re pet-friendly — we have dogs ourselves — and generally very lenient. However, if there are several dogs on the property, we may ask guests to keep theirs on a leash, especially if any show signs of aggression.

Welcome to our little sanctuary. What if you could walk out your door, put your bare feet on the ground and just feel the peace radiate through your body?
Hideaway Haven is an RV site on the other side of the farm with a neighboring farm view.
Coming this summer, enjoy 1 of 4 primitive sites where you can choose to set up camp in your vehicle screened hammock, or tent.
Being able to look out at the sky to see all the stars, to hear the sounds of nature, the birds singing every morning, or watch the wind blow through the trees is an experience.
There's something about nature that brings us back to ourselves; we see God in the big picture of creation. Being able to just breathe and abide brings healing on a different level.
You'll be able to enjoy and purchase items from our onsite Farm Store such as eggs, water, handcraftedsoap, herbal teas and more.
We are a small family farm with chickens, a mini donkey named Moe, and Endangered Poitou Donkey named Maple that we are hoping to get into a conservatory program for breeding and 8 nigerian dwarf goats. They all love people but please keep your hands to yourself unless accompanied by 1 of the owners.
There are many things to do in the area from beaches, to hiking, taking a walk around the local farmers markets on Saturday mornings in Beaufort or New Bern, or visiting the beautiful waterfronts in Morehead City, Beaufort, or New Bern.
There are many locally owned restaurants that all have their own uniqueness. All of them are amazing depending on what you are looking for.
In season, we may offer oyster roasts, and low country shrimp boils as add-on options to your stay while enjoying fireside chats. Feel free to bring your guitar!
Music is a love of ours and we always welcome it.
In regards to the animals, we ask that you do not feed anything to them that isn't already provided. One wrong food could kill them.
PLEASE NOTE
North Carolina has bugs, owls, snakes, coyotes, bears, and alligators all of which usually stay away from humans but one never knows. Do NOT put your hands where you cannot see. You may want to bring your own bug spray.

Spruill Conservation Camp is in a beautiful natural setting on the sound with gorgeous bald cypress trees with osprey nests that you can see from your tent. The campsite was clean and ready when we arrived. There was plenty of firewood for purchase (honor system) and water from the pump for use other than drinking. The porta potty was clean and in a good location (close enough but far enough away from the campsite). We brought our kayaks but unfortunately the water was too choppy but we did care, we just enjoyed the sounds. We saw a beautiful sunset from the campsite. We will definitely return!

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!

Really beautiful, tranquil space. Isaiah made sure were comfortable and then we were left in true privacy with only the trees, water, birds, and flowers as company. Great camp spot for a family as it's a short drive to downtown amenities if you need to go off site.

This spot was outstanding! Thoughtful campsites and friendly communicative hosts made everything much easier. The sites are well maintained and the views of the Albermarle Sound are exemplary. Campsite 3 had awesome wooden log benches around the fire pit! The use of kayaks was a delight- take the time if you can to explore the watery cypress coastline and enjoy the sounds and sights. We have a wonderful time. Everything was just right! We will absolutely return! Thank you!

This campsite was absolutely beautiful. There are three campsites on the property all waterfront and well spaced for ample privacy. There were two very clean port-o potty’s, nice picnic tables and fire rings at each site. We stayed at site one which was a nice flat patch nestled in a water-side forest. This is a good site if you have kids because it is in between a water pump, a bathroom and closest to the trails/beach area. There are several nice trails along the property that take you through a picturesque marsh. We saw a bald eagle among other cool wildlife. Spring was a good time to go because we saw little to no bugs. We had a wonderful time and hope to return some day.

Bright star Farm is a wonderful place for a quiet retreat if you love a country setting. My friends and I spent the weekend relaxing and enjoying all the country and farm animal sounds. We built a fire, made great meals and had lots of laughs. The hosts were fabulous. It's definitely not a place for rambunctious children, but definitely a place for a quiet getaway. A 10 out of 10 for simply relaxing!

Park was awesome! Excellent hookups, internet, bathrooms and laundromat. Fun playground for kids with bounce house planned for future. Walking trails around the two lakes were great for dog walking, or biking. People were fishing, kayaking and swimming. Pool wasn’t open but they have a sand area on lake that is awesome. Only thing they need are trees for some shade.

My friends and I had a lovely, relaxing stay here! The farm is gorgeous and rustic and being right next to the horse pasture was such a treat. Watching the sun set with the horses running in the field was beautiful. The bathroom was very clean and we appreciated the very short walk to it because we got to see the little horse on the way! Our host was welcoming and helpful. We definitely plan to come back:)

This was a great place to camp and was pretty relaxing camping next to the water. Their dogs are very friendly and was nice they visited every so often. Water views are great and even caught three fish. If I had to critique anything, the sites could be labeled better. Didn't really know what was a site amd what wasn't. Only other thing is the geese kept woke me up a few times through the night, but can't do anything about that. All in all, I'd go back.
