    Absolutely gorgeous campground. The host met us immediately at our site to ensure we had water on board. The roads leading in are not well marked if you're not familiar with the area, and completely in the dark if you come in at night. The sites are very large, open and grassy. Pads are paved. Electric only. So peaceful hard to believe the hustle and bustle of the beach is nearby. We'll definitely be back Camped in 40' motorhome with 4 slides. towing 10' enclosed bike trailer. 50 amp. Site long enough to back in MH and gave room for trailer/bike in front.

    It is a beautiful place. We visit often and each season presents new discoveries and joys. This trail is remarkable for several reasons. It traverses several types of North Carolina landscapes including salt marsh, swampland, pond, riverine, bottomland, pineland and includes what appears to be a rather large spring. I will leave it to you to explore each of these biomes and find the spring for yourself. A wide variety of creatures lives in and around the park and may be seen at any time. I recommend early morning or late evening for viewing animals. During the day from dawn to dusk many types of birds may be seen. The animals that are around include black bear, white tailed deer, red squirrel, gray squirrel, rabbit, fox and others. Birds include herons, cranes, gulls, bluebirds, cardinals, jays, crows, ravens, duck, goose, woodpeckers, osprey, hawk and an occasional eagle. The water is crowded with creatures including marsh snails, blue crab, fiddler crab, flounder, spot, croaker, minnow, frogs, turtles and others. There is a lot to be learned here as the area was originally 'opened' during the 1930's with a WPA Project that intended to drain the land in order to reduce the number of mosquitoes. The result, however, was quite different and left canals throughout the marsh which allowed encroachment of salt waters. The area has recovered quite nicely and now presents a wide variety of wildlife and plants to view and discover. Also at this location are campgrounds which can be reserved. There is a sizeable boat launch for canoe, boat and kayak. Easy access is available then to local freshwater rivers and streams, large saltwater marshes, bays, the barrier islands and on to the ocean.

    The park is primarily a barrier island with ferry service, though there are some onshore trails…read morethrough the forest and ample picnic space while you're waiting for the boat. The ferry is reasonably cheap and does not take advance reservations. They limit capacity on the way over, but obviously this does create a situation where passengers can build up by the end of the day, to which their solution appears to be to have the last scheduled ferry service double up if need be (they had at least two boats it seemed). The island has ample uninterrupted beach, which had plenty of sea life, including a sand dollar which I would more typically see farther south. There was a modest paved walk through the island to get to the beach, passing primitive campgrounds and some bathroom facilities on stilts. During my visit, they emphasized that the water available on the island was not drinkable; apparently they had to repair facilities after a hurricane and the intent was to produce drinkable running water, but there was still some unsolved technical issue. They cautioned us in advance to bring plenty of water, and there were working fountains on the mainland. Every island is different, and in this region, most of them are settled. The next really wild one heading north is Shackleford I think, and heading south would be Masonboro (which I haven't found practical to get to). The atmosphere here is worth preserving.

    Great place, very close to beaches, aquarium and lots of things to do. Very friendly people.read more

    I will start by saying that the staff onsite and the community was very friendly. Thankfully, since…read morefrom the moment we arrived we had a whole crowd of onlookers wondering how in the world we were going to fit our 41 foot 5th wheel into the lot they sent us to. Let me go ahead and warn you - if you have anything bigger than a 35 footer DO NOT STAY HERE. If it is going to rain - DO NOT STAY HERE. The lot they put us in they claim can fit up to 42 feet - absolutely not the case. The roads are narrow and if it's a weekend of holiday, packed with trucks, boats and trailers. It took nearly an hour to finally get into our spot (which we could only do by the help of the neighbors and we had to drive through someone else's lots which thankfully the grass was dry, if it was wet at all there's no way we would have been able to get in there.) in fact we would have just left immediately but it was Memorial Day weekend so everything was full. So we finally get into the spot and the water hook up is way in the back of the lot behind the electric box, so unless you have an extra long hose (which we have NEVER needed at any other park) your hose isn't going to reach. Then the rain came. I've attached video and photos to show you how flooded this spot got. We had to walk through 7inches of rain every time we left our house and this was just after a few hours of rain, not like a torrential downpour or anything. With kids and dogs this was absolutely terrible. In order to get the rig out we had to have use plywood in order to avoid getting stuck. After emailing the management team about this, they claim they have put many rigs our size in that spot - though the staff on site specifically told me ours was the first of that size they tried to fit in there. The staff onsite also said they've continuously asked corporate to do something about the way that spot floods and that they agree we shouldn't have been placed there. Corporates response was that it was our fault for having trouble getting in and that there's nothing they can do about the flooding. Perhaps try paving the spot or at least putting down gravel. The fact that this company thinks it's acceptable to place ppl in this muddy mess blows my mind. Thus my warning for future travelers.

    I'm writing this review a little late in the season but better late than never! I used Pogies from…read morethe spring to recently as my primary spot for bait. They always have a couple of chest freezers stocked with a great selection of fresh frozen baits packaged in nice sized packs that I used up in a day or two of fishing. The freezers are always clean,organized & not overstocked,translating to nice,quality baits.They also keep nice sized live & kicking green crabs when they can get them. Another great offering is single/tandem kayak rentals at a really fair price.I rented one for a whole day for the price other places quoted me for a half day to just a couple of hrs & if you book online you get a $$ break.You can also fish off of their private dock for a couple of bucks,which is really worth it when Bicentennial Park is overwhelmed with a bunch of families & "munchers"(my kind term for yahoos & others who'll stand 3ft from you & eventually cause you some sort of misery,lmao!) They also have artificials of every size,shape & color & the coolers up the middle of the shop always have a gem that you need or not really but ya know how that is,for a way better price than the big W or other places in the area,AND you can find a great discount on alot of them. The staff is laid back & personable,not pushy or just plain apathetic! Thanks guys for keeping up such a great business,much appreciated!

Book online it will shave off some precious sand dollars. No waves? That's great, too easy. You don't have to put a boat in the water, they have a cool slide to launch you so you don't look like a weirdo. Service was friendly, helpful and able to launch even the stockiest of gentlemen.
