For you camping purists out there this place is not a campground. This is a vacation resort. In fact once you set up your camper there is no reason to every leave again. This campground has everything you could every want. There are two pools one indoor a very nice town center which has a cafe, a very well stocked store, outdoor amphitheater with community fire pit and a laundry mat that even has drop off service. All sites are pull through and very large in fact you could have placed another camper between most sites. The bath houses were very clean and large with an unlimited supply of hot water. Did I mention that this is an ocean front resort with great beach access! The staff was very friendly and made my stay carefree. I highly recommend staying here if you should ever be in the area. I spent two weeks here and can't wait to go back.
Did I tell you how big this place was? There are over 900 transient camping sites and just under 3000 permanent sites many of which people have erected lavish summer homes.

Stan,
When are you leaving for Columbia S.C.? I'm headed up that way (Summerville S.C ) to visit my brother on the way to Pohick Bay Campgrounds in Lorton Va late Wed 6-11 or early Thursday 6-12.

Stan,
It sounds like you own an oil well...
I wish I could afford to take a trip like that with you. I'm only averaging 7 miles per gallon.
We are in Carolina Beach N.C. near Wilmington N.C., leaving for VA in the morning.
Maybe our paths will cross somewhere else.
Joe
