From check-in to check-out, you are made to feel like your patronage matters. We received our KOA discount easily, no questions asked. We were given a packet of information about the campground and the Wilmington area. Excellent job! Our site was full hook-ups with 50amp, cable and free wi-fi which was very high speed from our site #29. It is a long level pull-through with grass. This campground accommodates RV'ers with dogs. They have a "dog park" that is separated into 3 different areas. Exercise equipment for the dogs, seating for dog owners and waste pick-up bags to dispose of "pet droppings". A great feature in a campground as it allows our pet to be loose but in a confined safe environment under our supervision. We could not find a negative thing about this KOA and have plans to return next year at this same time. Nice job Wilmington KOA! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

What a joy this place is! :) Not on our list for a destination, but a wonderful place to stop on our way to the outer banks. It is true it is on a busy highway, but the sites are off enough to muffle the sound enough to sleep. Large pull throughs with convenient hookups, and wide sites with plenty of room for slides. Bathrooms are immaculate, with conveniences like hooks and seats for "stuff", with even a cute little TV running to watch while you dry your hair. Staff at check in were top rate, and very friendly. This is one of the cleanest KOA's I have ever stayed at. Modern and updated. Great little pet area, with nice playground for those that would need that, though we don't have children or dogs. Our inside spoiled cats, however, loved to watch the multitude of squirrels from their perch on the couch. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Reservations were as we had made with site near restrooms/showers ; staff in office very courteous and knowledgeable ; packet included directions to nearby state parks, beaches, etc. Site was dirt/gravel and wide enough to not feel crowded. Good location from where to go to places we wanted to see. There are trees but not too many, and general condition of the park was very well groomed and kept clean. Garbage cans available throughout the Kampground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a nice KOA. The site were level and long enough. The space between the sites was generous. It is well located just off highway 17 with good access to stores etc. It is in the trees so it was shady and nice. All the hookups were located well and the cable and Wi-Fi were good. The site are mostly sand with some grass. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed overnight passing through town to see family. Our reservation was made correctly, and set outside for us, as we arrived late. We found our site, hooked up and everthing was fine. There is a convenience store and large truck/RV wash at the park entrance. The dog park in the camp was nice, too. No complaints: a good KOA. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great park, we really liked it here. WiFi worked perfect, sites have plenty of room around them, are easy to get into and are well kept. Makes a great place to stay when visiting Wilmington. Pool made a great way to cool off after being in the heat most of the day. Only reason I give it a 9, instead of a 10: While they do have a playground, it could use some improvement. Consists of little more than one slide, and the large chess set. Could use a few more things there for younger kids to do. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We've stayed here several times and always enjoy it. The park is very well maintained and the staff super friendly and accommodating. WiFi was excellent and we were a distance from the office. We enjoyed the Bark Park for the pooches. The pool is quite nice also. We did encounter one thing that we had not experienced here before. We were a last minute reservation and got one of the very few sites that have utilities on the "wrong side" if you park like everyone else. Our check in suggested we reverse to get the utilities correct. The down side to that is you then share a patio with your neighbor...a little too close for us (and them!) The solution is simple: just park like the others and run an extra length of cable and hose and you'll have a nice site. Management was very cooperative on what was a minor issue. I mention it only as a head's up if you get one of the couple of sites that are this way. A very nice park that we enjoy visiting. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I am generally not a raving fan of KOA camping, mostly due to price but I have to say that the Wilmington KOA really is something a cut above. There are a lot of big rig suitable sites with easy ingress/egress. 50 amp full hookup sites just about everywhere, a 3 pen off leash pet exercise area and plenty of places for kids to play. The sites are all packed and level beach sand/gravel and our semi tow vehicle and 40' 5th wheel fit nicely with room for the Smart car without anything hanging out or sitting on the grass. Its surprisingly quiet with no nearby railroad tracks, Interstates or airports to rattle us. Their site has a decent promo video which gives a good perspective of the available amenities. The staff has been mostly college kids with a few workamping older folks like us, thrown into the mix. We reserved a Lodge (not a cabin with no bathroom) for visiting friends. Its a short Park model with a log cabin motif inside but complete with a queen bed, bunk beds and everything but linens. They are loving it! Talk about convenience, there is a Hess gas station at the entrance which, at the moment has the lowest fuel prices that I can find in this whole area. On the opposite side of the KOA driveway is a big vehicle pull through car wash with lots of bays tall enough to handle any sized RV. That’s just too darned convenient! Its only about 5 miles to Wrightsville Beach to the south and a good bit farther to Carolina Beach but the roads area good and wide and generally fast. As I said, I am not a big fan of KOAs and have stayed in a few that were not acceptable but this one is something special and is well managed and cared for. Its certainly better than many of the Coast to Coast Deluxe resort properties we have stayed in. We will definitely come back here. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

KOA Parks are generally well managed, clean, and provide good family facilities. I have no complaints about this parks cleanliness or facilities. But it seemed a bit disorganized when we were assigned to a site which turned out to be occupied by one of their Workampers. The site we were shifted to required the water hose to be run under the coach to the adjoining site. The people in the site next to us had parked their tow dolly next to our picnic table, and the KOA management had not required them to move it. These aren't major complaints; but when a RV Park is charging what most would consider to be premium rates, you might expect exceptional sites, competent management, and a unique experience. You won't find it at the Wilmington KOA. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here over New Year's weekend. They were in process of removing a number of trees to make access to some of the sites easier for larger rigs. The sites are kind of close, but level. There are 3 dog runs. This would be an ideal base for visiting the Wilmington area. The park personnel were very friendly. We arrived 2 hours after closing, but a couple were still in the office and checked us in. It's not the nicest KOA, but it is pretty good. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Stayed three nights in a lodge and loved it! Had a nice side yard with a few large trees and plenty of room. Not a lot of road noise. Being very tired of hotels, we found this to be a welcome experience. Only negative was finding some light bulbs burnt out which were promptly replaced by the staff upon notification. Also the bathroom drain was clogged up. None of these issues really took away from our enjoying our stay. I couldn't help but notice that the camp sites were quite spacious. If I'd had my motorhome with me I know I would have appreciated this fact. An added plus was that we happened to be there when the hosts were recording their video of the month and because we participated they gave us a free night! If in the area I would definitely stay in this campground again. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.

This park is over priced for what you are offered.The sites are dirt and the grass is sparse. This is a sister site to the New Bern KOA, which was a 10+. This was nothing special.

The campground looked clean when we arrived. Unfortunately, we had the campsite from hell. First, there was a tree situated in the middle so that we could not open our awnings or use our satellite TV. But worse than this was our neighbor on one side was allowed to have at least 3 large tents, three large vehicles, at least 8 people plus 2 dogs , one which barked all night for a couple of nights. When we tried to put up a tent on our site, we found dog poop all over the place which was disgusting. Also the site was mostly dirt with tufts of grass instead of grassy like the others. When we complained, all we got was "sorry about that". We camped here in a Motorhome.

There are level, gravel sights. It is great for pet owners (2 pet run areas). It has a great pool. Some sites are close together, but we were able to open slides and awnings. There is a car wash with RV bay at the entrance. There are plenty of restaurants nearby. The only problem, and it is minor, was the extended length of sewer hose required at our site (36). We will definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was our third trip here in 3 years. We use it as a quick getaway on weekends. As far as facilities go, this KOA is average, though our dogs love the bark park. What makes this an above average campground is the fact that the staff goes above and beyond to make sure the customer is happy. They are very friendly and helpful, which is why we will keep coming back to Wilmington KOA. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This park is neat and well-kept. Most sites are shaded. Access can be a little tight for big rigs due to trees and fences, as well as tight-radius turns. Electrical power was a problem during my stay, with frequent voltage drops to 100 volts. The park maintenance staff said they were unable to help with the problem, since this was an acceptable level of service. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Enjoyed the stay at the park. Nice to have a self-serve car wash with an RV bay right at the park entrance. Close to town to enjoy the restaurants and attractions. Enjoyed the pet play areas. Needed more than one bath-house; it is a long walk from the back of the park. Our site had recently had work done on it, so there was loose dirt that became very muddy in the rain.

I was very disappointed when I pulled into my site and found the road was gravel and not paved with gold. $75 dollars for a site, and we had to stay 2 days. There was a motel down the road advertising a room for $69.00. They stated they were full because of the azalea festival. Well even at $40.00 I would find this to much money. Gravel roads, gravel site, unheeded pool. Snobby staff. I will never stay here again. Gouge is the name of the game. Not only did I have to pay $1.39 for gas but got gouged on the camp site also.

This is a nice campground as described. The sites are dirt pads. Our 20 foot sewer hose would not reach the connection and the water hookup was on the passenger side of the motorhome requiring us to attach a 25 ft hose to a 25 foot hose to reach. It seemed to us that the campground was a bit pricey considering those flaws. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great campground that is not too large and is convenient to all that Wilmington has to offer. Very clean grounds and very friendly staff. Pull thru sites were easy to get in to and very level but narrow. Some sites, including ours, did have low tree branches that prevented the use of an awning. Playground is in great shape and the full sized chess board was fun for the kids. Pet friendly with two fenced in off leash dog pens. We will definitely being staying here again.

Sits just off of a busy, four-lane road (Market 17), but the noise isn't bad. Stayed here during some big motorcycle event down in Myrtle Beach, SC, and the campground was packed with bikers. Only complaint is that the men's shower/bathroom is in need of modernizing - rather than providing cable TV in the restroom, why not put the money into upgrading it?

This is a very nice KOA. It is surrounded by the suburbs of Wilmington but it feels secluded. The sites were well spaced, woodsy and there was a separate area for tents. It is an easy 7 mile drive to historical area. Staff is friendly, area is safe all areas were clean. They had free internet/PC available in the adult tv room/library. They also had a store for supplies and free doughnuts in the morning. There was a very nice playground and the camping cabins looked very pleasant. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Campsite access was very good with adequate size pull throughs. Playground and swimming pools were nice for children; they even have a yard size chess game. Convenient driving to the Wilmington’s historic section and beaches. The campground is family oriented with more families than retired travelers. The campground is dog friendly with two fenced in dog areas they even provide doggie bag stations which are scattered throughout the park. Keep the broom handy there lots of sand to track in. Dirt roads and mostly dirt campsite with some grass. Each campsite had a fire ring which we did not use since we camped here in August 2006 when the temperatures reached 100 deg.

I found this campground to be a very nice place to camp. My biggest complain is the cost. I hate to have to pay extra for my 3 kids. I understand the one who is 21 year old. But to pay extra for my two younger kids just kind of, well it makes me mad. Over all we enjoyed the stay here as a base of operations to visit in and around Wilmington. Having WiFi at the campsite was a nice thing as I had to do some work for the company over the Labor Day weekend, this made it nice that all I had to do was set it up and get my work done. The bath houses were in great shape 90% of the time. I found them dirty and in a mess one afternoon, I notified the office and someone got right on cleaning them up. The store was marginal with goods but worked and had everything you might need without having to leave to get it. A Food Lion is just a 1/2 mile down the road. A Wilco/Hess is at the camp entrance with Diesel fuel on two pumps so that was nice, not having to hunt a up station with diesel fuel for my truck. The campground staff was friendly and the owner was on site Saturday and Sunday. The campground had entertainment Saturday in the form of a Hawaiian Luau. With real dancers and roasted pork with side dishes. This was all free to paying guest. We camped on three sites and also had one couple in the Kamping Kabins. Over all we had a great time and would like to go back. I will plan a trip when the rates are cheaper, Off season. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We found this to be a very pleasant campground. Our site was a nice and wide pull through that required no leveling of the rig. There was some shade at almost every site. All sites had a fire ring. Check-in was quick and easy and we found the staff to be very friendly and on top of enforcing the rules, while not being overbearing. We camp with our dogs, so we especially enjoyed the large enclosed dog park. Though there was some minor road noise from highway 17, we didn't really notice it most of the time. We found the convenient location to Wrightsville Beach and downtown Wilmington to be a big plus. We plan on going here again when it's beach weather! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

available in the office for use by campers. You can also connect your laptop there or connect in the laundry room. I especially liked that the bathroom had a coded locked door. I felt a little safer. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice campground. Level, gravel pull through sites for the most part. Some back in
sites. Lots of tent sites and some cabins for rent. Staff was excellent during our stay. Very freindly and willing to do a little extra to make the stay more pleasant. Some noise from the highway, but not disturbing. Next to a fire house which can make some noise every now and again. Pool was not too large, but very clean. Playground was nice. Restrooms were clean. Good cable TV. Great location for the beach, downtown, etc. Will stay there again for sure. Not a perfect rating as they need to dump the expensive per child fee. Adding $3 per child adds up way too fast, and will steer many campers elsewhere. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very clean and well kept. Most sites are shaded and very nice. Only two 50 amp sites, but eight more being added. Roads are well graveled, but can be dusty at times. They charged us a 3 night minimum of $135 for the Azalea Festival, but we saw folks who stayed less than that. If they want to respond to the needs of today's RVers, Internet access should be added at the sites. Nice location for Wrightsville Beach. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I'm specifically rating this low simply because they do not seem to be family oriented. KOA campgrounds are portrayed as being family oriented yet they usually charge extra when you have a family that is larger than 2 people. Of the three KOA campgrounds I have been to this one was A) The most expensive. ($36 + $6 for children per night) B) Had the least children oriented recreation. C) Was the one with the least options for various camper types. My opinion is that this campground caters to Retired Folks with Motor Homes and that it is not interested in being a family oriented
campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

For a KOA the place is not bad. Most sites have gravel some do not. Roads are good - no gravel on roads - small number of potholes in roads. The showers, restroom, and washroom were spotless. Staff was nice at check in, office has a good supply of RV items. Some road noise from Hwy. 17. Cable TV is very good. Would be nice if sites had 50 amp power. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very clean park. The closest one to the beach that is nice. However, when you make reservations they will bump you quick. Even after you have called later on to confirm your reservations. Rates are resonable and everyone is nice but watch it with the reservations. The owners patrol the area often which is nice for us. They say they have a pond which it actually looks more like a bath tub. We camped here in a camper.

Nice campground. Had a great lot near kids playground. Pool was nice and road were in good shape. Satff was friendly and knowledgable about local "to do" things for kids. Went there Labor Day weekend 2001. Site was large and easy to back into. would recommend for short stays of 2-4 days with kids. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
