Owned and operated by Art. Mostly long-term residents of several years. I'm here for 3 months as a travel RN. Very nice in general. Close to restaurants and shopping, yet surrounded by woods and generally no street noise. Only drawback is one resident screams and curses wide open, as in last night from 0100 till 0230. No showers or restrooms or laundry facilities, but I had to answer yes they were clean or I couldn't post. They were clean, because they're mine! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This "park" is Art's back yard at the dead end of a street. We got the last site on the day of our visit. Most of the sites appeared to be seasonal, as residences for the occupants. The nearness of an air force base and army base makes this a convenient location. Our stay was an overnight layover and we got the Passport America rate, for which there is no limitation. The location is a few miles off I-95, but we would probably stop for the night again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is not a campground, but rather 12 RV sites in Art's backyard. There are currently 10 full hookup sites and two W/E sites (which as of this writing 5/08 are getting connected to the sewer). Art's RV sites are very convenient to Ft. Bragg/Pope AFB as well as anything in Fayetteville. Very little street noise from the main drags of Skibo or Cliffdale. Shopping and eateries galore about 1 block away on Skibo. Propane refill is available at Owens Garden Center directly across from intersection of Windemere and Cliffdale. $12.50/night reflects Passport America rate with no restrictions. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This campground is OK but it sure doesn't rate a 9 or 10. If one can give this campground those scores, then what score do you give to a true RV resort with wide paved roads/streets and every amenity? The entrance road is a dirt (sand) and, in some places, not wide enough for two rigs to pass each other. The interior roads and sites are sand/gravel. The bathhouse and laundry are old but clean. There is a very nice pool but, with the first peal of thunder, the gate was locked and we didn't get to use it. There are lots of shade trees which may cause problems with satellite reception but free cable is available. Wireless Internet is available for $5.95 a day but the Verizon signal is strong for those that have an Air Card. My speed test was 0.90 Mb/s download and 0.32 Mb/s upload. The staff was pleasant and helpful. I could not get a 50 amp site although the rate ($29) was the same as the 30 amp site that I did get. I got a nice long pull-thru site that was level. This is not a bad campground but, for $29 a day, I expected more. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was our first visit to Lazy Acres Campground but we enjoyed it very much. This park was very convenient while visiting with our Army grandson. We were even able to leave our RV for several days because of a family emergency elsewhere. We definitely would stay there again when in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Follow the signs off the freeway and trust them. At first, it looks like you will be driving out into the woods down an old dirt road. Don't worry, this RV park is tucked away from the roadway noise and was easy to get to. Staff very friendly and escorted me to my site. Owner even picked up my propane bottle, filled it up and brought back to site. We needed a quick stop and this was the spot. Showers/laundry facility very clean. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Pool and campground were very clean. Very friendly--owner offered a flower from his tidy garden! My dogs enjoyed the path around the small lake and into the surrounding woods. We camped here in a Motorhome.
(GPS: 34.97448, -78.88786) In summary: Shabby but clean. Good signage on I-95 and approach roads. Dirt entrance and in-park roads. Very close sites with no screening between sites. Tight turns required to get into some sites. Clean cinder block restrooms with concrete floor and painted plywood dividers. A bit noisy due to I-95 being only 1/2 mile away, auto racing at some nearby track, and traffic at a nearby airport. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We stayed here about 6 years ago, and recently returned for about 3 weeks. The owners and camp hosts are just outstanding folks, friendly, helpful and courteous. Our son returned from overseas and he and his wife visited with us at the RV park on 3 occasions during the three weeks we were there, the owners refused to take the additional person(s) fee. It just was a nice touch to a nice stay at their park. They delivered a newspaper to our site almost daily when extra copies were received from the carrier. Lazy Acres is camping in the true sense of the word. You can have campfires. It is not a manicured resort, but it is clean, maintained and you feel part of the park. Sites are wide enough for slides, and you feel like you have room to roam. There is a pond for catch and release. It does get dusty due to sandy roads, but it does not detract from a down home feeling. We will stay there again when returning to the area. Bob, Debbie and Eddie are great folks, with positive attitudes, interested in accommodating their customers. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Signs on I-95 and signs along the access roads are accurate and easy to follow, but the actual access road is graded, packed sand through woods. We wondered what we'd gotten into until we finally landed in the campground. It's quiet and well kept, what appears as new electrical serive with 50 amp, new cable for TV, and just recently they added a for fee WiFi service that is competitively priced and works quite well. We're here for two days and we are pleased to be here despite our first impressions coming down the access road. Nice owners. Very helpful We camped here in a Motorhome.

Facilities primitive, kind of icky, campground is closer to Hope Mills than Fayetteville.
Great place for fisherman with private stocked pond, very quiet, level and sandy sites, nice staff. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground was very friendly. The staff was happy to help you in any way. Give you directions, their opinion on a good place to eat. All the sites were shaded, and most of them are big enough for anything. The small pond is great. Lots of fish. Bass, Crappie, Catfish pretty good size those fish are. If you like to be surrounded by nature and a quiet place, Lazy Acres is the place to be :) We camped here in a camper.

Great park, lots of trees, fires allowed anytime, friendly staff, quiet We camped here in a camper.
Stayed here for the first time a total of 3 weeks. Drove directly from Arizona and have no complaints. The location is perfect for workcamping at Ft. Bragg. Quiet, remote but 5 minutes to Post, friendly staff, with washers and dryers available. Even numbered sites are reserveable, odd are first come first serve. There are limited service sites with water and 30amp electric if W/S/E (50 amp) sites are full. Limited sites have better views of the lake! We camped here in a Motorhome.
I should have read the previous reviews before take the railroad track entrance. I have ripped out my stabilizer jacks. Do make sure you take the Honeycutt road entrance, through the horse stable entrance to the park. Lesson learned. Earlier my wife called to make sure they had room for us for our 36 ft fifth wheel, they said yes. After getting there and ripping off the stabilizer the individual who my wife talked to said they forgot to tell my wife to take the horse stable entrance, a lttle late for that. Other wise the campground was OK. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Our experience with this campground was just OK. We love the price, and the restrooms/showers were clean and well designed. We followed the advice of another reviewer and entered the park off of Honeycutt DR (By the riding stables) and I am glad we did. The RR tracks at the main entrance are very bad and I can see where many stabilizer jacks have been drug off there. We got a pull-thru, and found it to be very dusty with almost no grass. The beach does not open until noon, and they don't allow parking close-by. You have to park up the hill...Army policy... Despite some disappointments, the price and location were right for us. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice place to stay but nothing to do except rest. They close the lake Monday through
Thursday so no swimming or beaching. Would I stay again, only on a overnight basic as I travel on the Interstate. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a recreation area for military personnel. It is very clean and is located at the top of a small hill so you have a good breeze at all times. There's a decent sized lake with a large playground for children on site. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
