Flanners Beach Campground

Hosts are excellent as are facilities

Love this place

Arriving mid-evening on a hoiday weekend our site had an electrical problem. Our EMS detected it and broke the circuit to protect our rig. The next morning I reported the issue to the camp host. He provided a 50amp-to-30amp dogbone and advised that it is unusual for both 30amp and 50amp services to have a problem on the same pedestal. If that was the case he said he would do everything he could to move us to a site with working electrical hookups. The campground was booked solid. Moving us was going to entail calling no-shows to see if they were going to show up at all. After the holiday weekend he would contact an electrician. Except for the electrician, none of that was necessary because the dogbone worked like a charm. We had perfect 30amp service for our stay. Our camphost was awesome. He stayed cool, was not bothered that we had reached out for help, provided an immediate resolution, and had a plan should that resolution not work. 5-stars and a pat on the back to him.

Nice campsite. Great trails to hike.

It’s a nice campground. It’s neat and clean. It was quiet and convenient to many attractions in and around New Bern.

Great site, everything was well kept up. Kids loved biking on the paved loop around the campground.

Only one toilet for the men to use, and it was out of toilet paper.

RV spaces we difficult to navigate because trees and brush were not trimmed around the space. One bathroom was closed and the only bath house did not have any heat and hot water wasn't adjustable because the knobs were missing. The river front was not open to visitors and seems to have been closed for a long time. Some spots with electric hookups were not occupied but the web site said they were. Will not visit here again.

Very quiet campground. The showers are a little dated but were kept clean. There are only 2 places to get water so fill up when you get there.

We hit the jackpot with this campground! Flanner's Beach Campground was peaceful, well kept, and friendly. We traveled from NH to NC and were visiting family in the area. When we pulled in we were delighted that our site was shaded and private, as specified. Our dog enjoyed the many strolls on the forest trails and sandy beach along the rivers' edge. Our host was very helpful and kind throughout our stay. There's even a campground cat (no-name yet). Maybe there should be a Name-That-Cat contest?!?! Our vote is Scout!

If you're in the mood ... Travel down to Morehead City and visit Fort Mason at Atlantic Beach. The sweet treats at AB Ice Cream and Candy Shoppe really hit the spot. The Cherry Point military base is right in the area, so you can always see what is going on there. We were a little early for the air show, but maybe next time!
