Legacy Farms Leisure Area

5 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents43 acres · Lumber Bridge, NC
We carved our 43 acre horse farm out of wild swampy land in 2007 and finished the barndeminium in 2008. We started with Hipcamp 5 years ago & enjoy meeting new people. My husband is retired from the Air Force and works full time doing the chores. I worked full time as a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner, but I just retired in May of 2024. I have a side hobby making homemade jams, pickles and flavored goat cheese spreads. We love the peacefulness of where we live...although the weather chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, guinea fowl, peacocks, goats and horses do get a little loud come feeding time. We have different sites, please read each description or message me before you book a stay. All the sites have an 8pm latest check in unless you've stayed with us before. We are constantly looking for ways to upgrade or make our farm more fun to visit.

The best camping near Carvers Creek State Park guide

Overview

About

Embark on an adventure through Carvers Creek State Park, where the legacy of James Stillman Rockefeller's winter retreat meets the splendor of the Sandhills. Traverse miles of hiking and biking trails, cast a line into the serene fishing waters, and picnic amid the whispering longleaf pines. While overnight stays under the stars aren't on offer, the park's day-use activities promise a full day of exploration and discovery.

When to go

The best time to visit Carvers Creek State Park is during the spring and fall when mild temperatures make outdoor activities pleasant. Summer offers longer daylight hours but can be quite warm. Winters are cooler and less crowded. The park is open year-round, except on Christmas Day.

  • Check trail status before your visit as conditions can affect accessibility.
  • Pets are welcome but must be leashed and attended at all times.
  • Remember to pack out all trash and respect the park's natural habitats.
