Haywood Landing Recreation Site

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Fishing, kayaking, and hiking give campers three solid reasons to visit Haywood Landing Recreation Site, a free National Forest site along the river outside Maysville, North Carolina. Access is flexible: drive in, walk in, or arrive by boat. Amenities are basic but functional, with toilets and picnic tables on-site. Mosquitoes can be severe, so bug spray is worth packing. Wildlife is present, and food should be stored securely inside a vehicle. Pets are welcome. Campers exploring the region can compare campgrounds around Maysville or check out nearby Long Point Boat Launch to the south.
