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.

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).

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.

Beach has not been restored. Bathroom needs renovation. Also could use cleaning.

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

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.

We love this campground, for us it’s 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!

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.
