This was a very pleasant campground, although we spent little time here. Site #9 was plenty big enough for our 30ft camper but a tad hard to get in to because of the permanently placed picnic table. Used all of our electric cord to get to the 30 amp receptacle. Shower facility was clean but hot water was in short supply. Also watch out for the fresh water fill hose by the dump. You might get an unexpected shower.

I had an enjoyable stay at the campground. The site was very clean. The bathrooms were decent. It was relatively quiet. Cell phone reception with Visible (Verizon network) was good. There are nice, well maintained trails through the woods around the campground. I did a 5.4 mile loop and had no trouble following the trail. This was my first trip, but based on other reviews it sounds like the beach access is not what it used to be. You can walk over to the recreation area and access the beach there. Can't wait to visit again!

Great getaway. Close enough to town if you need something but far enough away to enjoy nature. Very reasonably priced. Already planning our next trip!

The camp host was very friendly and helpful. Some lots are much bigger then others. There are lots of tree coverage, so not really suitable for campers with solar. The facilities could be better, painted and cleaned more often.

Flannels Beach is delightful, but it is a shame users cannot see the river. Was great to hear the Canada geese coming and goingtho.

Quite place great trails

Flanners Beach is one of our favorite campgrounds. Walking the paved trails is so pleasant and peaceful. We enjoy visiting New Bern, especially Brtopia, Surf Wind and Fire, and the new Firefly Cafe. The Saturday Farmers Market is absolutely amazing! Beaufort is also a short drive.

My CJROTC class does our annual class camping trip here and have an amazing time every year.

Stayed at Site # 7 for 4 nights. We had NO complaints or issues with the campground or area. Glad to see that it's still possible to get down to the river, always enjoy walking the trails. Havelock, the free ferry across the river, and New Bern are all very close and worthwhile trips.We've stayed at this campground several times and look forward to our next time there.

Nice quiet campground.

Small campground close to New Bern activities. Quiet campground. Nice shaded campsites.

Love this campground! So peaceful & love being so close to Flanners. The bathrooms were so clean and the campground host was very hospitable.

The park is always in always pretty nice to me. Still waiting on the beach area repair; however, you can access the water to fish and perhaps wade (I didn't do either). There is a lot of highway construction in the area so a lot of attention to traffic is required. Walked the trails which are asphalt and shaded. Usually try to make it to Flanners at least once a year and will continue.

Large and private sites. Great little get away!

I visit this campground each year in September as my home base as a Volunteer for the MS 150 Bike Fundraiser. I love the campground its locality to New Bern and you can't beat the price. Very quiet here too. My only complaint is the fire pits. As a veteran camper part of my enjoyment is our campfire. The replacement pits that were put in after Hurricane Floyd are an abomination. They are literally 3.5 feet of solid steel. You have to be 1.5 feet from the pit to actually see your fire. Not to mention that they are not cleaned out of a regular basis so there is 2 feet of soot and ash, other peoples burnt food and scraps piling up. The good news of this is if they don't clean them, you actually get to watch your fire. its just 3.5 off the ground. What is the point?

We love this campground, for us its local and a great place to get away for the weekend without being too far. The hosts were wonderful, we had trouble that necessitated us leaving the unexpectedly the first night. Fortunately we were able to come back and finish our stay. I had told them they could let someone else use the site, but they saved it as a last resort and so we were able to go back to our planned site. They were helpful and friendly, just what you want in camp hosts!
@Jennifer252624 · Camped on Jul 3, 2025 at Campsite #8
My only reason for 2 stars is that fact the beach is still closed, otherwise it would be 5 stars.Upon checking in we did not have the right converter plug. We were at site 8, had a 30 amp trailer but the power was 50amp. Went to the host and they immediately came to the site and brought us the correct plug. They were so helpful ! Park was clean, bathrooms were clean
@RichardB521693 · Camped on Jul 2, 2025 at Campsite #6
Beach has not been restored. Bathroom needs renovation. Also could use cleaning.
@CharlesW117121 · Camped on Jun 30, 2025 at Campsite #35
This is okay for a short stay. Sorry that the beach is not open.
@SherryK9489652 · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #36
We loved the location and the towns around us. We went down to the Neseu River and it inspired us to purchase Kayaks to use. we did get to use them once. We went to Cherry Point Church. It was great. It was hard to choose a church since there are so many in the area. We went to Ft Macon as a drive by but did not get to come back. We are definately putting that on a list to do.
@JeremyF5938047 · Camped on Jun 25, 2025 at Campsite #8
This was my second time to stay at this campsite. I traveled down to visit my son who is currently station at Atlantic Beach in the USCG. The campsite is a perfect time away from the busy life. Quiet, clean and excellent camping experience.
@LindaD7786634 · Camped on Jun 5, 2025 at Campsite #17
We enjoyed the stay and the trails. The restroom / showers need a little updating and cleaning. However, we used them the length that we stayed (7 days).
@LanceO9BD2386C · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #2
Great place to spend some quiet days. Campground was clean, sites we large and well maintained. Trails were well marked and easy to access.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
