(Note: Fireworks, crackers, sparklers, garbage burning are not permitted) Tip: check out the 'Phases of the Moon' calendar in photos before booking! Formerly: Spruill Farm Conservation Project The Spruill Farm belonged to the Spruill Family for over a hundred years and has just been 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. *Note: the shoreline changes with the wave action and the seasons. This makes the Bobby Wilkins shoreline trail so beautiful- always changing. If your expertise and interests coincide with the mission of the Farm, feel free to propose collaborative projects to julia@thepeanutfactory.org

It's a beautiful site! The Albermarle Sound is beautiful, the sound of waves, the sunsets, lovely to swim in. It was the best camping experience we ever had.

Great Spot on the Water!
This is a beautiful campground on the water! Lots of space, easily available and dry firewood, definitely rent a kayak or bring your own; it is magic on the water at sunset. Julia was very available and quick to respond when we had questions. Perfect spot to stop and camp otw to the OBX!

We loved it, and are already talking about our next stay. We did a little swimming and hiking, and had the most relaxing time just sitting around thr camp fire. Site #1 is very spacious. The scenery is beautiful. We saw a deer and lots of frogs. We especially enjoyed the sunsets over the water. Although it's not entirely private, we did have enough privacy. The Porta-potty was very clean. I do recommend that you bring a camping shower. We didn't have an opportunity to me Julia, but did meet her husband and he was super nice. Can't wait to come back! Will definitely do some boating next time!

Very private and quiet. No other campers around while I was there but met owner Julia who was very accommodating and informative. Swam in the Sound and had a fire. I didn’t use the kayaks but they were available. I’d love to return for the Fig Festival!
