Beaufort Waterway RV Park

I can’t speak for the campground but I do not recommend the boat slips. Over the 4th of July weekend I booked a wet slip online, sight unseen to use for a few days while we were from out of town for a few days visiting family. After paying a $62 deposit online I received a phone call from the business owner, Richard stating that it would be better if I waited a day until I used the slip due to ongoing dredging in the dock area. I was assured that my balance would reflect deducting a day from my reservation. I agreed, and I waited until the next morning to go put my boat in the slip. When I arrived, the entrance to my assigned slip was 2’ deep and had very limited access due to another boat in close proximity. Also, dredging had not been completed and hazards associated with operating a boat in the dock area had not been mitigated. I spoke with Richard face to face and voiced my concerns and stated I did not feel comfortable trying to squeeze into the slip and requested a refund. He agreed with my request and assured me a refund minus any processing fees that were charged would be credited back to my card.(Cancellation policy was never mentioned) I understood the fees and was ok with that. Today I received a refund of $13 of my $62 deposit! I spoke with Richard about the inadequate refund amount and he stated that the difference was due to fees. Even if fees were 10% it would’ve only amounted to a little over $6 not nearly $50!!! I gave him a chance to make it right as a credible business owner and he chose not to so that’s the purpose of this review. I’m not upset about the money as much as I am being lied to. It’s his business, he can do what he wants to but don’t tell people one thing then not follow through with it when given the opportunity. Again, it’s about credibility and integrity for me. I’ll take my business elsewhere in the future.

He answered the phone at 7 pm. If he wanted to handle this during office hours he could’ve done that but again, he chose not to. Typical situation of always playing the victim.

Nice park close to Havelock and Beaufort. Additional improvements are currently underway. Staff is very helpful & friendly. Good views of the intercoastal waterway and boat traffic as well as fishing from the pier or your site. Sits in the shadow of the overpass so expect some traffic noise at times. Take a minute to review the rules before booking as there are a few that are different from other parks. May be best suited for families with older or no children due to proximity to the water and strong currents. We camped at Beaufort Waterway RV Park in a Motorhome.

We enjoyed our stay a lot! Clean lot, boat ramp was easy to access, boat parking was nice and secure, and to top it off everyone was super nice. The owner is very polite and very reasonable when needed. We will be staying here again a lot and i highly recommend staying here. Not a far drive from beaufort waterfront. After a trip to the grocery store we just took our boat everywhere from then on out. The creek is very simple to navigate and it is an easy boat ride to morehead waterfront and Beaufort water front to attend activities and restaurants.

Our family took a last minute trip to the coast and the only place that was pet-friendly that had availability for the four nights we needed was Beaufort Waterway RV Park. We stayed in Cabin 2. It was immaculate and didn't have any "pet aroma" at all, which was a pleasant surprise. The loft upstairs could have easily accommodated two or three children in sleeping bags or on cord or a futon. Mrs. Tina was very friendly and showed us around at our nighttime arrival. My husband and son enjoyed fishing right from the grassy area by our cabin, as well as on the pier. Highly recommend!

Spent a great week here while visiting family! Our drive-in site was right on the intercoastal waterway! Saw many beautiful boats/yachts daily as well as a smaller cruise ship!! We arrived a day early and the owners Richard & Janet were very accommodating and directed us to this beautiful site as well as taking his personal time to give me explicit directions on how to get to the campground!! I highly recommend this smaller but growing piece of paradise!!! They have wonderful staff (Meg and Billy) to answer any questions and they work very hard to maintain its beauty.
Enjoy!!!!
