ScoutWe stayed in early August. Hot, humid, and raining. The sites are large and well kept. Bathrooms and shower houses are available and are clean and well maintained. Dumpster and recycle containers available on exit. Overall very nice!
ScoutThis location has a great staff. Everyone is helpful and polite.
GuideWell maintained, clean, relatively few full-timers. Perfect for a long weekend or week near enough to the beach
TravelerWe quasi-boondocked our camper, stayed at a tent site. Nice, quiet campground. Lots to do in the area; could easily stay longer than the three nights we reserved.
Bath houses were clean, but need more hooks for clothes, towels, etc.
At dump station, the hose for cleaning the black tank leaked.
GuideThis has always been my favorite place to tent camp when I get a chance to stay here as it can get very busy in the spring and summer months. I stayed in February and there was only a few other near my site. I enjoy the convenience of the nearby grocery stores and beaches. But if you’re not back before they close the gate at 7pm you won’t be able to get back to your site until the next day. So be mindful of the time. It’s for the your and the other campers safety. But you can park at your site and walk or bike in and out on the side of the road.
TravelerVery nice campground. Bathhouse was clean. Quiet. Staff was very nice and helpful. Lots of stuff to do in Surf City.
GuideOur kids where very happy with the little pool and we found good facilities to do the laundry. There are some nice shady spots and some are a bit crowded. But good full hook ups.
GuideWe stayed here on Labor Day weekend 2025. The staff I spoke with were friendly and helpful. The grounds before you enter the campground area are beautiful and well kept. The campground itself has many spacious, full hook up sites with packed gravel foundation. There’s no grass due to the mature pine trees but the community areas have lush lawn and beautiful flowers especially around the pond. The bathhouse and laundry were sufficient. They had a nice pool, playground, volley ball court and horseshoe pits. They have a large dog park. We look forward to inviting some friends to join us for group camping here sometime soon. Their nightly rates were very reasonable.
TravelerNew Park with all the amenities you need, clean well kept facilities and grounds. Dog Park and nice mowed lanes for walks. Owner super nice and helpful.
