104 acres of peace and quiet for your enjoyment. This site would be best suited for tent campers at the moment due to no bath houses or electricity for the time being. Come enjoy your stay bring a kayak or canoe and float around the 6 acres of ponds and catch some of the many bass, bream or crappie that occupy the waters. My property is located 7 miles off highway 74/76 in Whiteville and 10 miles to Lake Waccamaw. 32 miles to Ocean Isle Beach, 45 miles to Wilmington, 36 miles to North Myrtle Beach. Also in the pictures the grass hasn’t been cut and the tin hasn’t been put back on the picnic area by the pond. These things will be done before your stay! The road is grassy/dirt I would recommend a suv or truck for your stay. When there’s no burn ban in place or lack of rain i do try to keep firewood on-site but I recommend checking with me before your stay. I am new to this so please give me a chance to get everything squared away on the page. If you have any questions feel free to e mail me! I am currently working on getting the new roof installed on the shelter and the well operational upfront. If you book you will have the entire property for you and your party.

Small quiet campground that has some adorable amenities. Pet and child friendly. Nick (the owner) is super helpful and they even have item you may have forgotten they will lend out. Firewood is provided. We stayed I. Their little cabin on a whim. Cozy but small. AC and heat both worked well. Their camp store has very affordable gifts and some supplies one might need. We came to this area to try some unique restaurants. The cabin allowed us to stay and try all of them. We went to the Mad Boar on Friday night for some amazing prime rib and unique appetizer. We went to The Country Squire and enjoyed a wine tasting before a dreamy colonial meal. The atmosphere here was so realistic. They even have an inn. And of course we had to go to the Duplin Winery. Next time we will bring the kids to enjoy the craft hour and playground.

Camp Ground is quiet and well laid out. Facilitaies are clean and maintained. Lake was open and fun to play in.
Camp ground is next to airfield, you might get Helicopter nosies from time to time.

We really enjoy this little state park. It’s small, quiet, and clean. We use it all the time to “test” new camping gear and setups before we travel further from home on longer trips.
Guide
This is a very large campground with mostly full-time people. Nice laundry facilities, decent sized transient sites, beautiful beach and piers. It was "off-season" but the weekends were quite busy. There is a 5mph campground rule that most definitely is NOT followed. Kids and adults drive golf carts like it's the Indy 500. Was a nice stay, but probably won't go back.
Scout
I’ll definitely be staying here again! Beautiful and very well maintained landscaping, clean facilities, very helpful and friendly staff. Really close to the beach, a good selection of restaurants as well as other points of interest. My only regret is that I didn’t have time to stay longer. Thanks again for a wonderful weekend!

ScoutThis is a relaxing, natural campground. Many bird songs at sunrise and Whip poor will calls at sunset every night. We have dogs and there are nice places to walk along the pond, and grass areas all around the campground. The dog park is nice for some off leash time. The facilities are great with a store, laundry, and clean restrooms and showers. A very nice pool is available, but with Sunset beach, and Ocean Isle beach just minutes away we have gone there daily. I am fascinated by Bird Island that is a nature preserve and reachable from Sunset beach, this is a day trip we are looking forward to taking the dogs on. Calabash is another town we have visited and it is a gem. We didn’t expect to want anything but seafood but the Peruvian restaurants’ line out the door was intriguing and we ended up there for a late lunch and loved it. My partner is an avid fisherman and had a great day fishing on a Hurricane charter out of Calabash.

Beautiful Arabian horses. Also goats, ducks, turkeys, chickens, roosters, Guineas, etc.. Cats and dogs add to the fun. Tom and his wife are great hosts. I set up a small tent on the lawn, and the fall weather was perfect. Would have stayed longer, but I had to hit the road.
Scout
I’m a fan of this place it is beautiful and quiet sites are primitive but well cared for nice security features bring mosquito repellent
Traveler
We stayed in site 5 for 11 days. The Yurt had been removed but the platform stayed. We were able to get up our large tent on the platform and have enough space for our chairs. The lake is beautifully kept and clean. Very shallow. You can walk out a good 300 meters. We kayaked and fished while we were here. The rangers were helpful and checked in to make sure we didn’t need anything and kept the trash can empty. All the locals we spoke to we friendly! The down side is you are a long walk to the toilets. This is primitive so no power or water at the site. We absolutely loved it and plan to come back again!
Bring mosquito netting or pop up to keep the horse flies away!

I stayed here for 5 weeks while renovating my motorhome. It is a very clean and well run facility. Bath hi puse is immaculate as is thee campground. There are no activities but there is a very scenic small lake with walking paths. Great location near restaurants and a small town . Very nice people here!
Scout
Beautiful, peaceful location, rural yet easy to find. Fire pits and picnic tables for every site. Mike is extremely friendly, very experienced with camping and RV life and always goes above and beyond to give you a calm and memorable stay. Great eggs!
Scout
We go every weekend in the summer to swim
GuideDecent campground and bathrooms. No swimming in lake which sucks.
LegendJake from the Dyrt here! Legacy farms is an awesome horse farm that offers primitive camping for tenters who want to rough it, or hookups for those who want to bring an RV for a different type of farm experience. After staying, make sure to leave a review on the Dyrt and post some pictures for us to see!

Ashley here with The Dyrt! We'd like to welcome this host, Joseph, to our platform. There is a fire-pit available and a new gazebo on the property. You will be the only person camping here. Bring your fishing poles, you'll be right next to the water. Have a dog? This is a great place to let them run. Enjoy your experience with them, take some photos, and don't forget to leave a review!

This KOA journey is exactly what the journey type campground . This a stop over spot where you can count on being a few miles from95 and has what you expect, reliable hookups, level site and courteous staff. Simple and sufficient.
TravelerRangers and hosts are wonderful at this SC State Park. Serene setting on a lake, nice sized campsites. I stayed in campsite 11 which I was somewhat difficult to get get into so definitely only for smaller rigs, the other thing is you might now want to take campsite # 12 if they offer, the water, electric and sewer hookups for 11 are basically in campsite 12 front yard. I was here over two weeks and enjoyed
Traveler
Wonderful, small, relaxing campground. Large, level, FHU sites. Some permanent trailers and seasonal campers, mostly occupied by traveling healthcare professionals. Well maintained. Campground is surrounded by the owners farmland. Horses, cows, donkeys, chickens. Simple and peaceful. The owner, Lisa was the best we’ve ever encountered and we’ve camped in all of the lower 48. Well maintained. We will definitely return!
ScoutThe bathroom, the grounds were very clean. Walked trail behind campground. Wi-Fi is excellent.
GuideThis campground is a nice KOA Journey, it is conveniently located right off of I95. The staff is very pleasant, the campsites are a decent size and well kept, the campground overall is clean and nice. The pool is clean and cool, a nice respite from the days drive.
I would give this campground 5 stars if it was further away from I95. To get to it, you get off the highway and loop around about 1-2 miles, but you cross back over I95 and it is situated right next to it, so there is a lot of road noise. Not a great place to several nights if you are looking to hang out outside of your RV. If it wasn’t for this, this would be a fantastic campground. That being said, I would definitely stay here again for an overnight stay.

Less than a few miles to downtown Wilmington.
GuideFun place. There were happy chickens roaming around. The camp host were really nice and showed us where to set up. The bathroom was very clean. There are horses, cattle, chickens and a turkey. The animals come to say hi. The kids loved our stay. Right off I95. Great over night stay.
Farm Camp. Right by road so was a little loud at night but manageable. Bugs so don’t forget bug spray. Rooster alarm. Great place! Will definitely stay again.
Traveler
This was not our ideal spot because it was very close spots to other campers. And so many bugs. Not just mosquitoes, but knats, horse flies, flies, etc. They were terrible. However, the river was lots of fun. Most was pretty shallow and a huge sand bar area. The kids loved it and dogs too. Lots of people fishing too. Very friendly lady runs it. Porter potty near by. Trash cans at each site. Fire pit but no grate. No showers.
Scout
Imagine the cutest grandpa you've ever met opens up a campground for his friends. This is the vibe. I'm a VERY low maintenance traveler. I sleep in my car and shower when I can. I got a tent lot with electric for $40. Compared the the giant RV resorts in the area it's a steal. Hot water with fantastic water pressure. If nature and a couple bugs scare you, feel free to go to one of the resorts. I was 50 feet from the bath house. Toilet space is pretty tight. Right on the edge of the woods. Best to call ahead, I called the morning of. Cash only.
TLDR: Underated. Quiet. Good showers. Cash only.
