Our new happy place!

Our first time here and what a great gem! Small campground without much to but the pool, so be prepared to explore Manteo and the OBX beaches. Close to all the thing Manteo has to offer. A tight fit for a big rig, but we made it work. We liked how it was off the beaten path, but close enough to be an OBX tourist. We already made reservations to come back!

Spot: 49. Traveled in a 38' Class A Motorhome.

Booking: Online or phone. (Booked online.) They do not assign spots until the day of your arrival.

Drive in: Easy on and off from Route 64. (Don't miss the turn onto Bowertown Road. (Easy to miss.)

Interior roads: Gravel. Wide enough to maneuver. The fact that the sites are not at an angle makes it difficult to not run over the grass, but we did the best we could.

Space size: Just wide enough for our rig + plus another car. (We kept it parked by the pool to give us more room.)

Facilities: Full hookup at all the sites. Bathrooms were clean. Great pool. (Kids loved it. The sunsets were amazing.) You have to walk down the street a bit to the dumpsters, but that did not bother us. Only thing we wished this campground had was a dog park. Also, fire pits are not allowed, so be prepared for that.

Cleanliness: Overall clean campground. Well maintained. Some seasonal campers, but a good mix of both.

Staff: Glenn, the camp host was very gracious. Did not see too much of any other staff members over the weekend. But since we didn't have any problems, this did not bother us either.

Activities: Although not much to do at the campground, there is a lot to do in Manteo. Visited Festival Park, walked around downtown and enjoyed wine from Bluegrass Trading Company. We missed the Lost Colony Play, but that just gives us a reason to come back!

Wifi: Good Wifi. Was able to stream a movie at night.

Food: Plenty of great places to eat that are not that far from the campground. We had dinner at Poor Richard's Sandwich shop (very great spot.) Carolina Bar-B-Que, Srtipers, Darrells, and the Lost Tavern are on our list for next time.

We were very excited about this small, quiet campground that is off the beaten path for most OBX campers. We will certainly be back.
