    Enfield - Rocky Mount KOA

    No Frills, Full Hookups I-95 Waysration

    Excellent place to camp overnight or for a couple days to rest while traveling the I-95 corridor. Full hookups to empty your tanks (heated water to avoid freezing in cold), level sites - mostly pull through so you can get in and out with ease. Large open areas to walk the pups and a decent sized dog run so they can get exercise (I can’t run that fast :) ). They has a small pool for hot summer months to cool off and refresh. Camp store has needed essentials but don’t expect to find everything a camper can desire. Campus is sparsely appointed but it has all that travelers really want which is a quiet place away from the noisy highway that is safe and has the site amenities of bigger and fancier campgrounds. I rate 4 stars because it serves its intended purpose, has level sites (didn’t even need to unhook to get level) with full hookups, and it’s priced for a quick overnight or even long-term stay if you are of humble needs. We will make it a regular stop on our journeys south and north again.

    Fayetteville RV Resort & Cottages

    Great Place to Stay

    My thoughts and experience of Fayetteville RV Resort. This was our 2nd time staying here, this time we stayed for a long weekend, Thursday - Sunday during the month of April 2021. It is located a short distance from Interstate 95, making it a great place to spend the night if you are traveling on to another destination. Or stay for a nice relaxing vacation like us.

    Our site #27 located across from the office, pool, mini golf and bathhouse is a back-in site, gravel pad, nice, level, average length and width, fire pit and picnic table. Full hook up’s, water, sewer and electric. Also cable tv and internet with average campground WiFi speed.

    Things we liked about this campground:

    • All sites seem to be gravel pads, nice, level, average length and width. Full hook up’s. I would guess half of the sites are pull though. They have sites that can handle long rigs. Also depending on your site nice shade trees.

    • The staff and the couple managing the place are very friendly and it shows that they care about the guest. The campground is clean and well maintained. Seen staff making rounds all day.

    • So much to do for the kiddos and adults. Two pools, hot tub, mini golf, basketball court, horseshoes and playground all included in your price.

    • For the adults they have a nice workout center with lots of equipment.

    • During our stay they had scheduled kid activities and movie night with popcorn.

    • On Friday evening they had a food truck scheduled for dinner.

    • We really liked the “Meet Your Neighbors Happy Hour”, they really wowed us with this event. It ends early enough that you can still have a quiet evening around your camp site. Check their activities list for schedule.

    • Saturday morning they had a Waffle breakfast.

    • Two large fenced dog parks, one located at each in of the campground.

    • Two fishing ponds and dirt walking trail though the woods and around ponds.

    • Two newly remodeled bathhouses and laundry rooms. Staff keeps them clean though out the day, we never had an issue with dirty or un-stocked bathrooms.

    Verizon cell phone service was great.

    Local Eating Places: Nothing special, Waffle House, Subway, Foxes Pizza and a corner grill all within 10 minutes away.

    Attractions or things to do in the area: Averasboro Civil War Battlefield and Museum is only 9.6 miles. There is around 10 historical sites along the route that is connected to the history museum. In Fayetteville about 15-20 minutes there is a lot to do and see.

    Four Oaks Lodging & RV Resort

    Non-Descript Roadside RV Parking Lot

    If you find yourself passing up or down the I-95 corridor and simply need a patch of land to layover for the night and you’ve got one of those incredibly large mobile homes on wheels, then this non-descript RV location near Four Oaks (look for the cross-roads of where Hwy 301 intersects Hwy 701(exit 90 on I-95) may just be the perfect spot for you. But to be perfectly clear, Four Oaks is more of a layover than a destination - I would really only consider this on the way to somewhere else where I am getting in late and leaving early. 

    With a couple dozen or so RV parking lanes for your parking pleasure, all of the sites come equipped with the typical 20 / 30 / 50 amp electrical hook-ups, waste disposal and water connections. There’s the standard picnic table, fire ring / BBQ, garbage receptacles, propane refilling stations, covered pavilions and even a community BBQ. The hosts are somewhat grumpy and offer pricing by the night, week and month. Overall, the community is inviting and friendly and there were a few that invited us over to chat with them and share a beer. While there’s not a ton of amenities to pick and choose from, this location does come with BBQ, doggie park, free WiFi & high-speed internet, store and vending machines. Near this RV parking lot, you do have access to Wilmington, Emerald Isle and lovely (but crowded) Myrtle Beach. One of the best perks though is that this campground serves up a nice continental breakfast on the weekends for campground guests, plus there's also free ice and cable for any overnight guests. 

    Insider’s tip? Here's a few: (1) Take advantage of the close proximity to 30 acre Tucker Lake (conveniently located where Interstate 40 intersects 95), where some decent fishing can be had – we caught (and released) several smallmouth bass, brook trout and black bullheads. Here, you’ll find white sandy beaches, paddle boats, kayaks and canoes for rent, rope swings, 165 foot waterslide for the kids to jump into the water and scattered open pavilions with BBQ’s and grills. There’s also a handful of ill-maintained trails to hike on; (2) If you'd like to hit the links then nearby Johnston County Country Club has some really nice fairways that you'll want to explore; (3) Should you grow weary of trying to conjure up that next meal from the depths of your onboard mini-fridge and want to try out some local fare, then head on over to nearby JP's Country BBQ where they serve up smoked chicken, ribs as well as mac-n-cheese along with some good 'ol Southern cole slaw; (4) Should you find yourself in need of anything there's Ronnie's Country Store just down the road (you wouldn't even need to drive there from Four Oaks), where you can get basic groceries, ice and just about anything for your journey; (5) My favorite site on the property is #8 or #10 as they are furthest from the nearby highway and offer decent shade; and (6) If you come bearing kayak or canoe and are looking for a nice wet piece of paradise to launch into, then check out Holts Lake located just due north of this campground where there's also some pretty decent fishing to be had. 

    Happy Camping!

    Crosswinds Campground — Jordan Lake State Recreation Area

    Awesome State Park

    This was our very first full-time RV park. We loved being in the park and it easily accommodated our 39ft. Class A. Back-in site but with plenty of room to do so. Each site has water and electric hook-up. Sewer however is a dump station. The sites are big with a picnic table, fire pit and lantern hook. Plenty to do here with the lake at your fingertips. Great first experience.

    RVacation Campground

    Great for long term!

    We stayed for several months while waiting for a house to be built...in freeeezing cold weather!  We were impressed that the water lines are heated, so we didn't have to disconnect our water for the unusually cold 2 degree weather. (I believe the campground used to be an KOA)  Really nice little laundry room and dog park.  Everyone was very friendly..we had a nice large pull through site that allowed enough room for our truck and a car.  Even though was right on 95, didn't really notice the traffic noise.  We weren't there in warm enough weather for the pool, but it looked nice!  They did a great job of snow removal as well.  Very clean campground!

    Herring RV and Mobile Village

    Nice owners

    More of a long term place, kind of a middle of nowhere location, but it was at our stopping point. 50 amp service, we needed a reducer to 30 amp, the owners took care of us though and we had a good stay.

    Medoc Mountain State Park Campground

    State Park with Biking, Hiking, and Fishing Opportunities

    The name of the park is deceiving because it is not in the mountains, but it has beauty in its meandering streams and trails.  The campsites have gravel tent pads, and tents must be set up on them.  The gravel on the site where I stayed was deeper than my tent stakes were long, and I could not get a good hold.  I was trying out a newly required tent, which was not freestanding, so it was frustrating.  My advice is to make sure you take a tent that IS freestanding.  Deep gravel tent pads and non-freestanding tents do not go together.  The tent site was large, had a fire ring, and a lantern pole, but the pad itself was NOT level.  I had to move the picnic table so I could set up my tent on the only level spot I could find.  Something you have to be careful about is poison ivy.  There was poison ivy all around the perimeter of my campsite.  The bathroom facilities were surprisingly modern and had spacious showers with hot water.  As far as I know, there are no electrical, sewer, or water hookups, but there is a dump station.  There is a mixture of pull-through sites and back in sites for RVs.  There are plenty of trails to explore, and plenty of fishing holes.  The Bluff Loop Trail leads from the campground and along Fishing Creek.  To see Medoc “mountain,” you have to hike quite a distance, or you can drive to the park office down the road and hike from there.  Cross the road to the Bear Swamp Trail, get on the Saponi Loop (which is also a bicycle trail), and then head to the Summit Loop Trail.  There are several miles of bicycle trails as well as hiking trails, and some of them are one way only, meaning that hikers are required to hike in one direction and bicycles go in another direction.  Even though this is in the Coastal Plain, the Bluff Loop Trail will take you by a couple of sections of whitewater.  They are small, but if you like a (mostly) easy hike through the forest, this trail is a good one.  There are no swimming pools or playgrounds, but if you want to just enjoy nature, there are hiking, biking, and fishing opportunities.

    Jordan Dam RV Park

    Great no frills campground.

    We stayed at Jordan Dam RV Park for a year while waiting for our house to be built.  The campground is a great, quiet place.  There are not a lot of recreational amenities, but there is pond for fishing.  The site maintenance man, Earl, will direct you into your site, which was a bit tricky in the site we were in.

    The RV Park has on-site propane filling, and if you leave your tank on your picnic table, Earl will come and fill it.  This was extremely convenient during the winter months, when we were filling one of our tanks every few days.

    If you are looking for someplace close to Jordan Dam boat launch, or are looking for a long term site, this is for you.


Guide to Wendell

Wendell, North Carolina sits along the eastern edge of Wake County at an elevation of 315 feet, positioning RV travelers at a strategic midpoint between Raleigh and Wilson. The area experiences mild winters with occasional freezing temperatures, requiring some RV parks to install heated water lines for winter camping. Most campgrounds near Wendell maintain level sites with good drainage due to the region's clay-based soil composition.

What to do

Wildlife viewing opportunities: Jordan Dam RV Park offers a small fishing pond with ducks, making it a peaceful spot for nature observation. As one reviewer notes, "There's free WiFi, laundry service, propane tank onsite as well as little store on the campground premises itself and even a small fish pond."

Water recreation access: Fayetteville RV Resort & Cottages provides multiple water-based activities within the campground. A camper explains, "Two pools, hot tub, mini golf, basketball court, horseshoes and playground all included in your price." The resort also features "Two fishing ponds and dirt walking trail though the woods and around ponds."

Historical exploration: The Averasboro Civil War Battlefield and Museum is just 9.6 miles from some local campgrounds. According to one visitor at Fayetteville RV Resort, "There is around 10 historical sites along the route that is connected to the history museum."

Shopping opportunities: Hidden Haven RV Park puts you minutes from retail therapy. A reviewer mentions, "The Carolina Premium Outlet mall is just a few minutes up the road along with many restaurants."

What campers like

Community activities: Raleigh Oaks RV Resort & Cottages organizes regular social events for guests. A camper shares, "Every Friday, Saturday and Sundays they have free waffles for small donation. They also have organized activities."

Clean facilities: The meticulously maintained bathrooms at several parks receive consistent praise. One camper at Raleigh Oaks noted, "Bathrooms immaculately kept. Even the trash disposal is out of site and super clean. Great stop."

Pet accommodations: Multiple dog parks at larger resorts allow pets to exercise freely. A visitor to Fayetteville RV Resort explains, "Two large fenced dog parks, one located at each in of the campground."

Convenience factor: North Pointe RV Resort offers easy highway access for travelers passing through. A camper states, "The upside is it's a great stop off the main road, with easy off and on access."

What you should know

Road noise levels: Some campgrounds near major highways experience considerable traffic noise. At North Pointe RV Resort, one reviewer warned, "The place itself is just fine. The tv spaces appear to largely be pull through which I liked but there is a constant drone from the nearby highway that never lets up. It was loud all night as well."

Long-term vs. short-term stays: Coopers RV Park and several other RV parks in the Wendell area primarily serve long-term residents. A reviewer cautions, "This is a decent place but it is for sure mostly for more permanent people. A lot of people have complete build irons and have turned their trailers into non-movable stable units."

Site assignments based on stay duration: Some parks segregate campers based on length of stay. At North Pointe RV Resort, a reviewer observed, "If you stay short term you will stay up front and long term in the back."

Facility maintenance differences: Maintenance standards vary significantly between rv parks near Wendell, North Carolina. One camper at Four Oaks Lodging & RV Resort noted, "This campground has been in the family for a very long time which normally is a good thing. It's quite run down with improvements needed everywhere."

Tips for camping with families

Look for inclusive activities: Hidden Haven RV Park provides a peaceful environment with future amenities planned. A visitor notes, "They also have a nice little pavilion but that's it for now. There are plans for more amenities so be patient."

Choose parks with recreation options: Some RV parks offer extensive family facilities. A visitor to Raleigh Oaks described, "It's not the most natural setting (it's more RV than park) but it had a pool, tennis courts, playground and mini-golf course."

Consider seasonal programming: Holiday-themed events create memorable experiences for children. A North Pointe visitor shared, "We visited during Halloween and joined in the campgrounds holiday fun. They have a haunted hey ride, a costume parade, site decorating, and trick or treating through the canpground."

Pack entertainment: Not all campgrounds offer recreational facilities. A reviewer of Four Oaks explained, "It's ok not great, not a busy area it's ok if your visiting the area and need a place, think it's a bit pricey for what it is though, small designated tent camping area."

Tips from RVers

Propane services: Jordan Dam RV Park offers convenient propane filling without disconnecting. As one long-term camper explains, "The RV Park has on-site propane filling, and if you leave your tank on your picnic table, Earl will come and fill it. This was extremely convenient during the winter months, when we were filling one of our tanks every few days."

Leveling needs: Most RV sites around Wendell require minimal leveling. A reviewer at Hidden Haven noted, "Very minimal leveling needed and only because I'm a little OCD lol."

Food options: Local dining is accessible from most RV parks in the area. A camper at Hidden Haven mentioned, "At the gas station on the corner is a Brothers Italian Kitchen, very good and would recommend."

WiFi reliability: Internet connectivity varies by location within each park. A visitor to Hidden Haven reported, "They do have free wifi and it was good at my site (I didn't have full wifi strength) but the cell data was a little faster."
