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.

This is a smaller, mostly primitive campground. There is a selection of 50 amp electric only sites (no water on site, but potable water at the front & select spigots around the campground). We have a 30ft travel trailer. We enjoyed our stay despite the beach being closed due to hurricane damage and COVID. The bathrooms and showers were nice and clean with great water temperature and pressure. Short drive to outer banks beaches and within 10 minutes of a Walmart for supplies. We enjoyed our stay and will be back!

Well maintained park. The site hosts were very friendly and visible- I felt safe and had their contact info in case I needed it. Showers were nice. The park was clean and the paved trails through the woods were a treat!

We absolutely loved this area! The Hosts are absolutely wonderful and makes sure that everyone is doing what they are supposed to. They were even there to help when our tent was leaking in the rain. The only thing I was a little disappointed in was there was no way to reach the water. Everything close to the water including the picnic area was closed. They said it was on a 2 year plan to be redone. But they campground was so nice and the trails were wonderful. The kids had a great time and so did we. We will definitely be back!! ❤️

I experienced hearing loud angry arguing for a hour midnight Friday night. It sounded more like domestic dispute and came from bathhouse side of campground; opposite my campsite and close to host, Bobby&Janice Thompson. Saturday night 1am an 18-wheeler parked idling on campground entrance (directly next to host site). Driver and camper argued very loudly until 215am when truck revved up and drove inside entire campground road. The popping of hydraulic hoses and brake lines was very frightening alone, not to mention sheer size of 18-wheeler maneuvering very small campground, was unnerving at 1 - 230am. I felt an out of body experience locating me back where the event causing my life stressing event happened long ago. My PTSD was triggered and I decided that leaving is wiser choice since Bobby&Janice failed on the risk management part for Flanners Campground as a whole.

THE BEACH IS CLOSED DUE TO HURRICANE FLORENCE!!! NO SWIMMING OR WATER ACCESS HERE!!! The campground is nice and nice facilities. Only issue was the host the man is very nice and pleasant the woman his wife not so much. She will accuse people of speeding through the campground and is very rude about it. Speed limit is 5 and we had site right at gate they keep closed so no room to speed to our site if wanted too. She accused my husband of speeding and we had been back for a good hour before she came and said she knows it was a dark truck and very deaminingly said was him. Most of the trucks were dark in color there lol. There is a nice paved path around the campground where you can view the water at least. But do not enter beach area as host said they will arrest people if go past the closed gates. Campground flat and nice large sites with trees for privacy.

Janice and Bobby are the absolute best hosts!! They were very kind and accommodating. The sites were very well kept and the fire area set up was awesome! Each fire ring has a grill that you can raise or lower for better than normal temperature control while cooking. The bath house was very clean and they kept it stocked everyday. And there was hot water in the showers! Cell signal was just about perfect even out on the trails! I will definitely be back soon!
