3. Brunswick Beaches RV Resort
7 Reviews•53 Photos•54 SavesOpen YEAR ROUND Just a little history - - - The owner, Tommy Bradsher and some friends were on a fishing vacation in the Florida Keys and stayed at a campground. There he met a fellow Mason and Shriner who owned the campground. They had several conversations about how enjoyable it was to run a campground as well as the work involved. As a business owner and native of Brunswick County, he did research to see if it would be an advantage to invest in creating a new campground to attract more campers to the area. In 2003 based on his research, he and wife, Wanda, forged ahead with the idea of creating a family camping atmosphere. So welcome to the South Brunswick islands, your home away from home. Leave all your worries behind from the moment you enter this campground. Located well off the main road, relaxation is the theme of your vacation. Being a family owned business; we have family in mind. Visitors to the park can be found relaxing by the pool, fishing in the pond, or playing a family game of horseshoes, volleyball, or basketball. For those who do choose to venture out you won't need to travel far to reach one of 3 family beaches where you can build a sand castle, play in the gentle surf, or fish from one of the piers. The sport enthusiasts can spend their days on the Atlantic Ocean catching their spill of fish, or teeing off at one of 35 championship golf courses. At the end of the day treat yourself to fresh, local seafood at Calabash, the Seafood Capital of the World, or simply grill directly at your site. Located half-way between Wilmington, NC and Myrtle Beach, SC gives you the advantage of a wide variety of activities. You can choose from live shows, outlet shopping, restaurants then come back to the campground to wind down and relax. Give us a try and you just may find your forever home away from home.

Clean and Family Friendly
Such an awesome KOA, bathrooms were immaculate. Free coffee everyday and so many activities! Great communication, they text before every event, and if something is lost they send out alerts. Loved our stay!

So Awesome We're Staying Another Month
Pickleball! And there's the bar/lounge, swimming pool, gym, laundry but most of all, space. You're in the south, so friendly folks who give you all the time in the world is a given. Yes, southern hospitality is palpable here. We're just a few miles from the beach, walking distance to a restaurant and or convenience store; crawling distance to Dales Pub across the road. It's like a KOA here, without the big trikes, lake and boats- but there are a couple ponds where the turtles come and go. Highlights for us; 1.) The laundry will run off an app on your phone. 2.) The pool and patio is truly awesome; we hang there almost every afternoon(weather permitting). 3.) Did I mention pickleball?! Downsides? Well, there is the price, but that's relative. We're getting a$1200.00 monthly rate which makes it do-able. Sometimes, when the winds blow out of the east, every camper smells the sewage treatment plant across the back fence- Check Google maps satellite view. Truth be told, it is rare, only a few days out of the month. The large majority of the time we get the cool coastal breeze. We camped at Oceans RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

Very Nice!
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!

Ideal shaded sites, close to beaches, fishing, and good food.
This 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.

Camp Ipecac Group Camp — Singletary Lake State Park
Nice spot for family/friends gathering
This is a spacious group camping area; You can rent some cabins and/or rent RV spots so if you have a mixed camping family, so came come in their rvs/trailers and others can rent a cabin and y'all will still be next to each other. The park is on the smaller size but has a few hiking trails that are very nice. It also has a trail that goes around Singletary lake! The lake is awesome, great kayaking and fishing! The area is just away from White lake and Elizabethtown to be secluded and private but close enough to get what you need from the Walmart or Food Lion in town! There are also a decent number of "hometown" restaurants in town if you want to go out to eat! Georgio's is awesome!

Surprisingly quiet
Just off the road. Close to lots of places to eat and beaches. Seemed to have lots of activities some places even had chimaeras and Weber grills.

Fantastic Location
After hearing about the mosquito situation, I was worried, but have not seen one yet - October 9. We hiked a trail to see Venus flytraps in the wild. A short peddle to the ocean beach. Very nice sites.

Over night stop
We did an overnight stop here.
The campground was ok, but our site sucked. It was under construction, so the yard was tore up and we had no picnic table. The site was super uneven, so we didn’t pull the slides out. Sucked about that picnic table for that reason especially.
The campground is ok for a holiday.

Overcrowded - for kids & families
Satisfactory at best - lots to do fir kids - too much light, noise, construction, activity for a quiet nights rest. We did have morning shade at our site which was nice.

Bugs galore, but great Amenities
Just recently got back from a trip here and let me tell you the bugs were vicious! couldn’t walk away from our Thermacell Mosquito Repeller without getting attacked. the bathrooms are very recently re tiled but lost out on benches in the bathroom which makes it a bit inconvenient for changing after showers. the RV run the park and are bothersome at night. will still be going back been camping there since childhood.
Alex M.LegendCarolina Beach State Park
Unpleasant Stay
This campground has plenty of curb appeal: large sites, nicely spaced; shade trees and privacy shrubs; clean, well-lit bathrooms with quality fixtures. I only realized my mistake once I started setting up my tent. The biggest drawback here is the mosquitoes. Out of 30+ campgrounds this summer, this is the first one where I've had to break out the picaridin lotion. (It worked, luckily.) Other wildlife included big black ants - lots of them - and spiders so massive I could see their eyes gleaming in the beam of my headlamp.
These are all natural parts of camping in this environment. What really ground my gears was the RV campers across from me who ran a generator. They turned it off at 11 pm, thankfully, but it came right back on at 8 am. I wasted no time getting out of there. Bad, bad campground etiquette. RV folks - please don't do this, even if you're technically allowed to. It ruins the experience for your neighbors.

Carolina Beach State Park
Great spot!
I’ve been staying here every summer since i was a kid. So probably 11 summers now. It’s a great place. Clean bathrooms and cute well air conditioned cabins. You can ride your bike or walk to the boardwalk with some of the way having a paved bike trails. Gates close i think at 10 and open in the morning so remember to bring bikes. During the summer it is very humid and hot with lots of mosquitoes so remember to bring your bug spray. Try britt’s doughnuts of wake and bake before you leave, i promise you won’t regret it.

Carolina Beach State Park
Beautiful, convenient.
Great campground, excellent marina and paddling opportunities on the Cape Fear River with paddle access to many small white sand beaches. Marine store nearby, Bath houses very clean and newish. Sites relatively private and well shaded for the most part. Be careful in site selection though a few would be very tight for even the smallest pop ups with someone with a PhD. in backing up. I would avoid #60 & 61 in particular. While in the town of Carolina Beach, campground in not on the beach. Beaches are a brief drive away. Nice hiking opportunities too. Shopping and dining options only minutes away.

Beautiful and peaceful setting and wine to boot!
What's not to like. Beautiful, family owned campground. Large spacious and clean well organized sites. Picnic tables and BBQ grills on sites. Pull thoughts. Winery with taste testing hours and wine to purchase. 2-0/30/50 amp service. Dog run, wireless internet, laundry, pool, bath house with oversize showers, covered stage, art gallery/ gift shop, propane, playground, fishing pond, scheduled events.
T-mobile phone and hotspot work well
ATT hotspot ok

Nice hiking trails from the campground
This campground has about 10 sites with electric and water. The rest are dry camping with a lot of shade. Sites are large and separated by plenty of greenery. Showers are clean and hot.

Clean and Quiet
Former KOA campground. Well-kept and quiet. You have to drive to the beaches but that was not an issue for us; means the campground is less crowded. Staff and other campers were very friendly. Pool was clean. Sites are level and not too close to one another.

Wonderful experience right next to the beach! Very private sites and clean bathhouse. Very secure and just gorgeous.
M. B.GuideCarolina Beach State Park
No actual beach access- woods camping
This is a really nice campground but it's definitely Woods camping you're not necessarily close to the beach and any of the RV campsites are really really far from the beach like you need a bike or a scooter or a car to get to the beach from there.
