Tar River Tent Camping (Max 6 Tent)
A lovely spot for a birthday
This was a great spot for a large gathering. There was some flooding of the campsites due to some rain the last few days and they put us in a spot away from the river and it was perfect. They provided a clean Porto potty with toilet paper, firewood and trash. They checked in on us to see if we needed any more firewood. Also some nearby grocery stores and restaurants for easy meals.

Tar River Tent Camping(1-3 tents)
Camping in March
Staying at this location is a lot of fun. I stayed with my son and my friend and his son. Everything is organized and the sites are ready for your arrival. Our location had a picnic table which is great for sitting containers on and preparing food.
We had plenty of space to set out tents up. They provide you with firewood but you can pay to have a little bit more stacked for longer fires. We had great weather, no rain and was in the 50s as we slept. The spot is right beside the river so you can fish right there at your camp spot. I would like to plan to camp there again hopefully in April or May. There is a small shop nearby you can always get breakfast from too [coffee and breakfast sandwiches] but may need to drive back out onto the road to get to. Highly recommend.

Great time!
Great location and campsite. Hosts were very helpful. Complementary firewood was great and we really enjoyed the short walk to the farm stand for coffee and breakfast!

This was a great site and we will definitely be back! The site was roomy and secluded. The view was great. We could hear lots of wildlife at night.

Perfect getaway!
We absolutely loved staying at Tar River Life with Nikki and Mann! It was beautiful, especially with the fall foliage. The campsite was clean and scenic with the lake right beside us, perfect for kayaking. The fire was already made when we pulled in (since we were running a bit late), which was unexpected and so appreciated. We stayed in one of their large tent accommodations that came prepared at the site and it made the entire trip!!! The tent was large enough to stand in and it could have fit over 6 people. The tent had a wonderful skylight to view the stars and windows on all sides for air flow and added views. It even rained both the nights we stayed and the tent protected us from the wet and cold. Our site was very private and the few other campers we saw were very friendly. All of this, for such a good price made it one of our favorite camping experiences ever!!!
