We stayed here for 8 days. Very quiet and peaceful. We've seen more geese than people. Close proximity to everything. We enjoyed our daily walk and run. The grounds are well maintained and clean. Keep away from site 23B to 24B. It's tight for big rigs. And go spend some time at their pier to watch the sunrise and enjoy Bogue sounds in the afternoon. Donna is delightful and very friendly. We are coming back here again.

Had a great stay here, the campground is wonderful, saw a lot of complaints about ants, but we didn’t seem to have this problem, either fixed or someone just had a bad experience. Free cable, my only small issue is having to pay for WiFi, but that is a “me” problem. Staff was wonderful, location is excellent. Had a great time and if I come to the area again, will definitely come back!

It a great little campground good for biking right next to the sound and about 15 minutes to the beach it also has a water park near called the salty pirate, but if you don’t want to travel to the beach and stuff they have a pool and a little strip of stores near the entrance the most the campers are simple but sweet they also have a pond which is catch and release with some bass and brim, they have a nice bathhouse right at the pool so you can wash off right after so you can save hassle of riding back to your camper wet, there are often events at the community building by the pond but if you want more information you can ask the manager Brendan who is really nice, next to the pool there is also the office which you can buy candy and merchandise along with with drinks and ice for coolers and if you have kids ornaments are one for that matter there is a little playground biking the office.

This is a camper and RV place. Plenty room between neighbors. Folks here are friendly. Dog friendly campground with a dog park. There are some swings and play area for kids. It’s nothing fancy but well kept and nice for vacation with campers and RV s. I have enjoyed it so far
