About Flanners Beach Campground

Located in the Neuse River Recreation Area in eastern North Carolina, Flanners Beach Campground is situated on a bluff overlooking the scenic Neuse River and within a half-hour drive from the Atlantic Ocean and Intracoastal Waterway. The campground is extreemly busy and reservations are reccamended but must be made 3 days in advance. Of the 39 campsites, 7 are considered first come-first served campsites that cannot be reserved or held, so a person must physically be there with their camping equipment to purchase the campsite. Flanners Beach campground has the option to use Scan & Pay system, but by the rules of recreaiton.gov it may only be used for first come-first served sites. Please make sure to contact a campground host to ensure availability before paying for any campsite. Failure to check with the campground host for availability may result in the loss of your camping fee.

The hosts make this location a gem.
The location is close to everything yet it feels like you’re tucked away in your paradise.
The sites are clean and easy to get around. The at the gate reservation process is smooth and both the hosts and the co-host are awesome.
I return over and over because of the sense of family.
Travelers tend to pick up family members and I’ve picked up the hosts at Flanners.

Nice bike trails and water views. Outdated showers & bathroom, both in desperate need of updating. Sites varied from fairly private to completely exposed. Damp environment. Good access to AT&T services and close shopping and activities.

The sites and facilities were well maintained and clean. I enjoyed walking through the area and spending time in the picnic section--enjoying the sunshine. Meeting other campers staying nearby was also a pleasure.

It was a nice, quiet, clean campground. As others have described, the check-in process is a no-contact text at the gate. I received a text back with instructions and maps. It wasn't a problem. There is a nice paved trail that loops around the campground and also a few single-track trails. The "Flanners Beach and Croatan National Forest Loop," trail became pretty over-grown near the water and we couldn't find the continuation of the trail. I would stay again.
