Chalk Banks — Lumber River State Park
About
State Park
Located in Columbus, Robeson, Scotland, and Hoke counties 60 miles south of Fayetteville, Lumber River State Park has two access areas located about 1 hour from each other: Princess Ann and Chalk Banks. Possibilities for paddling on this 115-mile river are extraordinary. An abundance of wildlife and plant life, including the belted kingfisher and the rare Carolina bogmint, helped Lumber River earn federal designation as a National Wild and Scenic River, the only blackwater river in the state to have that honor.

Both accesses have camping facilities. If you have a reservation, please verify the location of your campsite prior to your visit. Princess Ann and Chalk Banks accesses are located 1 hour apart, so please check that you are headed to the correct campground.

Primitive and peaceful
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
Awesome spot
Awesome place. Decently far off the main road so it's quiet. Probably the biggest spots to camp I've ever seen gives you the feel of basically being way off the beaten path. Also the lumber river access is ideal to kayak and fish. The park rangers and maintenance people were chill and friendly. Park is clean and well maintained
Hidden gem
Extra large and private campsites. One of the campsites has a hammock stand. The group site is huge. The whole park is very clean and spacious.
