Canter Lakes Farm offers waterfront camping on 47 acres. We are a private horse farm with beautiful swimming lakes and river access on site via “Sand Hill Creek” At canter lakes farm you can explore over 10 acres of water without ever leaving our property, and hike almost 3 miles of manicured trails. The sunset and sunrise is always beautiful here! If you’re an early riser you can witness the magnificent steam rolling in over the lakes, creek and cypress swamp while you sip your coffee at sunrise. Bring your paddle boards and cruise, or warm up with sunny yoga on your private dock. Kayak or John boats can explore the river bends from our property, or even make it out to the big wide cape fear. We are also very close to two public boat ramps suitable for larger boats and jet skis. Holly Shelter boat ramp is literally 2 minutes away, Shelter Creek boat ramp is 10 minutes away. Both ramps have a fishing area and allow kayaks/paddle boards. Fishing is good on our ponds and the river year round, (bass, catfish, crappie, bowfin, gar, etc) in June hundreds of wild blueberry plants you can pick and eat. We also have prickly pear cacti for harvesting which you can cook the fruit and paddles over the fire and enjoy. If our trails aren’t enough and you want more adventure, just two miles away is the Holly Shelter game lands entrance where you’ll find thousands of acres for hunting, biking, hiking or horseback riding. And if you’re craving a beach day, Wrightsville beach is just a 30 minute drive away as well as is downtown Wilmington where you can enjoy walking the riverfront for shopping or dining. Tent camping or dry rv camping only at this time. Hot Shower, sink and full size toilet are provided in the bath house. No feeding of the horses allowed, or entering fencing. campers are welcome to visit or partake in farm experience with permission. •Nearest gas station, grocery store and restaurants are in Rocky Point, just 12 minutes from us. •Wrightsville Beach - 30-40 minutes depending on traffic •Surf City/Topsail - 35 minutes •Hampstead- 15 minutes •Jacksonville - 38 minutes •Downtown Wilmington - 30 minutes (riverfront/live oak bank pavilion)

Private Island!
We had such a nice time camping here! Absolute beautiful sunsets and night skies. The shade sail is a great touch although we had decent weather. It will be real nice for shade on super hot days. The site is sandy, level and private. We felt like we had a little island all to ourselves. Julie offered to let us use a paddle board if we wanted to!! This is a great spot for a group of people so grab your friends!!!

We loved tent camping in this beautiful, secluded spot! Definitely exactly what we were looking for. Made wonderful memories and appreciated the bath house!

I would recommend this to anyone who’s wanting to find a nice spot with a beautiful view! Location was close enough to the beach to travel to and the pond was so amazing to wake up to. The other perks were having a bathroom and shower to use! Julie and Scott were super accommodating and responsive to us when we had questions. I would say for campers, be prepared for ants and other bugs but of course that’s what comes with camping in a more secluded area with natural conditions. If you have little ones with you, there’s horses you can view and plenty of room for everyone to explore! Again, it was such an amazing experience! We’re glad our labor day camping experience came with the best of both worlds, the beach and the woods!

Great hidden gem waterfront camping
We love the sandy campsite with all the surrounding ponds. There was a big sail shade that gave us much needed relief during a very hot weekend. We spent most of the time in the water with our dogs on SUP boards. Bathroom was very nice and a shower was great to have also. There is quite many cacti on the ground off the paths which I was worried about at first but apparently my 2 dogs were totally fine stepping on them. The hosts were very responsive and helpful with all of our questions! We are already planning to go back once it gets cooler!
