Hayes Plantation is a site near Edenton, North Carolina that was the plantation of Samuel Johnston (1733-1816), who served as Governor of North Carolina from 1787 to 1789. Johnston become one of the state's first two United States Senators, serving from 1789 until 1793, and served later as a judge until retiring in 1803.

Samuel Johnston died at his home, Hayes Plantation, in 1816 and is buried in the Johnston Burial Ground there. The plantation house is privately owned, but was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1973. It is now within Edenton. However the current house was completed by his son, James C. Johnston, a year after Samuel's death.

It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1973.citation|title=PDFlink| [http://pdfhost.focus.nps.gov/docs/NHLS/Text/74001341.pdf National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination: Samuel Johnston House, Hayes / Hayes] |32 KB|date=January 12, 1973 |author=Charles W.
