R.O.S.A. Land Campground

Welcome to R.O.S.A. Land Campground!  Hot Water Outdoor Shower Back Up and newly chopped, dead Hackberry wood available as EXTRAS.  R.O.S.A. 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, solidarity-focused rematriation project. This land is co-deeded to MK of Handewa Farms and owned at present by K Cox, Steward of the Respite and will be passed on to MK and her seven Afro-Indigenous children once the Roundhouse is paid down.  In the meantime, an intentional community of farmhub tenants, visitors, campers and Handewa Farm members all co-habitate on the land together. 

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.

Privette Pointe

Once a working cattle and tobacco farm,  this land has been in our family for generations.   Experience magnificent sunrises over rolling hills,  just inside Wake County near the Franklin County border.   Two sites beside the pond,  stocked with fish,  a bridge to feed them bread from,  and a fountain to listen to as you unwind.Learn more about this land:Wake up beside the pond, listening to to fountain as you drink your morning coffee.  Fish from the bank or toss bread to the fish from the bridge.  Hike the property and take pictures of breathtaking sunrises and sunsets.

A quiet area surrounded by trees overlooking a pond where the only sound is the whispering of the winds. Access the area on a private farm road and emerge into a pristine woodland paradise. Enjoy the serenity of being close to nature but not too far from civilization, Read/Write a book, see the stars, slow the pace and enjoy. Perfect space for nature lovers, peace seekers, metro escapees, business traveller minimalists and even horse travelers who would like to stake out their horses in an open field.

Pure nature at its best...Bring your own amenities. The space is large enough for large gatherings. You can order a large tent, porta-potties, generator, etc. for a  your event.Will require some planning, and is a different cost structure, so msg me.

Serenity Farm

An off-grid experience with on-grid elegance. Owned by a yoga instructor and NYC transplant, this is a dream come true. The farm was purchased to raise my children, and when they went off to college, it was converted into my dream of owning a retreat center in nature, hosting yoga and wellness events, and sharing the peace of nature with my community.It seems very rugged when you enter, but when you get to the end of the driveway, the meadows open up, to reveal a small organic garden and a firepit. We have a covered pavilion for community yoga, an onsite walking path, and access to the Mountain To Sea Trail.Learn more about this land:This is the spot for campers looking to get away into nature, without "roughing it".  We make sure that you feel taken care of when you are here...We are less than an hour from downtown Durham, Raleigh, Wake Forest, but you are totally surrounded by nature and feel that you are far far away.  There is easy access to elegant, well-stocked restrooms (hand lotion, hair ties, scented soap).  In the evening our farm turns into a magical place with twinkling lights.  We have a yoga studio, yoga events, and even a yoga+brunch.  Our property is well maintained and sprayed for mosquitoes.  There are many community gathering areas, as well as a designated area for cooking.  You can walk our new trail, hang out in hammocks (that you provide), or take the 9-minute drive to the marina for some paddleboarding, canoeing, or kayaking.  If you are in the mood for a hike we are steps away from the Mountain to Sea Trail.You may join one of our scheduled classes, or book a private class for yourself and/or your group. You may also book some time in our authentic Nordic Sauna. If you choose to order breakfast, it is served in a private outdoor area.
