New Bern KOA Holiday

Pretty camp site, level gravel sites clean bathrooms and good WiFi. Some of the neighbors were loud, I know this is not managements fault, just be prepared.

This campground was great. Nice spacious site near the water. The bathrooms were very clean and each had a shower sink and toilet all to yourself. Climate controlled also. There were activities and a well stocked store.

Gets 4 stars primarily for the staff and the location. Standard sites are crammed together making privacy an issue. In our site we could not fully open our awning without it hanging over the neighbors site. Location is great for e plowing New Bern and he surrounding area, which is why we were there. And the staff is exceptional. Pat signed us in and led us to our site. She even gave us a baggie of kitty treats for our Kamping Kitty, he loves them. The rest of the staff was also very nice and helpful. We stayed for 5 nights, Sun - Thu nights and had a great time. If you go, would recommend a deluxe site for the breathing room.

Not bad this is called a holiday one but I would say this is more like a journey one it doesn't seem very resort-like.

This campground was: clean, fun, had gorgeous sunsets over Neuse River estuary; good fishing on fishing pier; very helpful and friendly staff and campers. We had an unobstructed view of the River and enjoyed it thoroughly. We will be coming back soon! Just a great experience.

The grounds are well kept and everything is super clean. The staff is very helpful and accommodating. This group likes to have fun and they seem to love their jobs. There are a couple of ponds for catch and release fishing, and a river for fishing to keep watch you catch. The sites are easy to get in and close to level. Do yourself a favor and enjoy this campground!

Well maintained, sites are level and spacious, cabins are very nice, lots of activities for families.

New Bern is a really wonderful little town on the coast of NC and this KOA is close to all the action. I really enjoyed our stay and the local town. We stayed in a camping cabin that overlooked the little pond area. The bathrooms were nice and clean and cabins were nicely appointed.

This was a very nice, well maintained campground. The staff were extremely polite and helpful. We stayed from Aug 11-14, 2020. The pool was nice on a hot humid day. They have gem mining. You buy the bags of dirt in the camp store. The bathhouses are all very new due to a recent hurricane and they were kept clean. The dock/pier was picture perfect as the sunset over the Neuse river. The playground and jump pad looked like they would be a lot of fun but were closed due to Covid 19 restrictions. They had horseshoes and Gaga-ball that were open. They had 2 fenced in dog parks and a dog washing station. We chose this campground for it’s location near historical downtown New Bern and we would definitely recommend it to others. They have RV sites, tent sites and cabins.

Very family friendly, pool, nice clean sites, cabins, clean shower rooms, tons of activities for the kids and the staff are amazing!

We used New Bern KOA for our shakedown trip with our new RV. Easy in, full service, lots to do. A great first experience with KOA
