We loved this park. It is surrounded by a beautiful, maritime forest and all the sites are shady. Store is well supplied; and the fishing pier gift shop has a nice selection of gift items. Beach is clean and beautiful. We were impressed by how quiet it was: considering the size of the campground and the number of people there. Convenient to all attractions. Our site #3, was set back with no privacy, hence the 9 rating. This is the place for you if you prefer a woodsy "real" campground feeling rather than a rowdy resort atmosphere.
This is our second time staying here. We were in site 56, which was spacious and well shaded. Family pitched a tent, plenty of room. We felt our site was attractive, grass cut, shrubs trimmed. Quiet hours are observed, people are friendly. Close to restaurants, we visited Newport and Wickford, and antique shops are nearby.State beach fees are pricey, but the beaches are beautiful and have nice amenities.Granddaughter and friend loved it.We will be back.
We camped in site 137A, which had a beautiful lake view, but roads on 3 sides, and a rental cabin on the fourth, so no privacy. There were noisy, roaming groups of teenagers out until 12:30 AM. People walked in the middle of the road making driving difficult. The kids we brought (2-13 year olds and 1-3 year old) loved the lake and 3 pools, which were immaculate and attractive. Store was well stocked and prices were reasonable. We visited the Morgan Horse Farm which was very enjoyable. Crowded and not my favorite type of place, but fun for kids.
We loved it here and would consider seasonal if we lived in the area. Big, shady sites and beautifully maintained. Very pleasant staff. If you have a boat, this is the place to be. Canals lead out to Chocowinity Bay, and the water and boats give the campground a nice ambience. Great walking paths, lakes, fishing,kid's activities, pools.Although large, did not feel crowded or hectic. I hated to leave. My one complaint is no cable or free wifi--a campground this size should be able to provide these.
This campground is immaculate and landscaped beautifully. It's close to Asheville and Chimney Rock. The staff were pleasant and helpful. What did not appeal to me was the closeness of the sites--we didn't feel like hanging outside, you could hear conversations in your camper, and I had to keep the blinds closed for privacy--people were too close. As a sightseeing base,great, but to relax at the campsite, didn't work for us.Site #13.
This is our third time here--peaceful,views to die for, immaculate,staff are friendly and helpful. Not much for children to do,just a small pool and playground, but a great base for sightseeing or just kicking back. Sites are spacious,wifi is free. Mountain views on two sides, and farm views make this one of our favorite places.All the sites appear to be good ones.
We only stayed here one night on our way to WDW, but wished we could've stayed longer. Our site was shaded and across the road from a lake. The campground was attractive and we saw an area where boats were being launched. Easy to get to, looked like a nice place for an extended stay.
