Key Stone Camp

1 site · RV1 acre · Arapahoe, Pamlico

Learn more about this land:Camp directly on the Neuse River! The views are incredible. Relax on the porch swing, swim off the sandy beach. Mins to Oriental and Minnesott Ferry.When we first saw this property we fell in love with it and we hope you can enjoy this little piece of heaven too. Originally we put in the additional site for friends and family to enjoy and then we found Hipcamp and thought, why not?What I love about the property is the water. It's so relaxing listening to the waves and looking out across the river watching the boats, birds, or dolphins with fish jumping and crab fishermen re-setting their pots. Cherry Point is not far away and we have been delighted by an impromptu fireworks show or a plane fly-by. Oriental is a small town full of sailboats and the town has a lot going on. They have a website called Towndock to see what's happening. You can grab a coffee or ice cream at The Bean, stroll down the waterfront looking at the boats, and drop a line off the fishing pier. There are some great local restaurants and even a Brewery that hosts food trucks and music on the weekends. You will not be in the middle of nowhere as there is a grocery store, a marine store and a dollar general to pick up supplies.The Minnesott Ferry (free) is a 10-minute drive and you can get to Beaufort, NC or Atlantic Beach in about an hour.Welcome! CaraExtra Info: The camping spot is a pull-in along a shared driveway with my neighbor and so you will be perpendicular to the river, but camping is all about being outdoors and there is the yard, picnic table, and beach to share. We haven't put a firepit in yet, but we plan to. When leaving, you would need to back out, but there is a driveway across the street so there is plenty of room. The reservation will be dependent on the rainfall so I don't have the instant book feature turned on. Because parking is on the grass, if it's really wet, you could get stuck and nobody wants that.

Coastal Tiki Hideaway & Cozy Camper

3 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents1 acre · Pine Knoll Shores, Carteret

Bring your RV (or tent) to the coast or camp in our RV! Nestled alongside our home, this camping retreat is just minutes from Morehead City’s waterfront, historic Beaufort, Atlantic Beach, Pine Knoll Shores, Croatan National Forest, and Cape Lookout National Seashore. After spending the day at the beach or exploring the area, come back to your cozy camper to relax in the hammock, grill out, eat at the picnic table under the expansive branches of our 30' magnolia tree, and gather ‘round the campfire to enjoy some s’mores. --COASTAL TIKI HIDEAWAY CAMPSITES-- We offer two campsites on 1/3 of an acre in Morehead City, NC - just minutes from the beach. Both are full hook-up (water, electric, sewer), 30 amp (not 50 amp), and are both set-up for RVs or tents. --COASTAL COZY CAMPER-- In addition to the two campsites, we also have our camper set-up for vacation rentals. Our 26’ Jayco Jay Flight Bunkhouse camper comfortably sleeps up to 5 and features a queen-size master bed with privacy curtain, a bunkhouse with two full-size beds and individual privacy curtains, and a convenient RV flip sofa. There is a built-in refrigerator/freezer and fully stocked kitchen with stove and oven and a kitchen table with booth seating. The bathroom has a standard RV tub shower with water heated by a 6-gallon propane water heater. The living room has a flat-screen TV, and the master bedroom has a flat-screen TV with Roku. High-speed WiFi throughout. --AMENITIES-- The campsites and camper are located in Morehead City next to our home on about 1/3 of an acre. The entire space is fenced-in. The entrance/exit, all amenities, and community space are located on the fenced-in lot next door to our home. We have an outdoor fire pit, charcoal grill, two picnic tables, Adirondack chairs, hammock, wooden bench swing, fishing kayaks, an outdoor sink and countertop area, palm trees, and boat trailer parking. --PET POLICY-- Pets are welcomed; although, certain pet breeds are restricted, such as Pit Bull, Doberman Pinscher, Rottweiler, and German Shepherd. Message host for specifics. Pets must be kept on a leash at all times. Please clean up after your pet. --WIFI-- We are a small, family-owned operation. At the current moment, we are not offering wifi. --KAYAKS-- The two fishing kayaks are complimentary and included in your stay. The kayak racks are located on the fence at the front of the property. There’s a life jacket and a whistle with each kayak, as you will need to have those on board per Coast Guard regulations. With the Crystal Coast having so many waterways and water access points, there really are several different places to launch your kayak throughout the area, so it's easy to have a unique experience with each new adventure! The two kayak launches that we recommend are the Beaufort waterfront and the Morehead City waterfront. The kayak launch on the Beaufort waterfront is near the corner of Front St and Pollock St at Grayden Paul Park. It is near all the ferry ticket booths and docks. The launch is a sandy strip of land, where you can easily get into the water and then paddle around Taylor’s Creek and enjoy Carrot Island. If you get lucky, you might see the wild horses on Carrot Island! At the Morehead City waterfront, there is a local kayak company at Jaycee Park by the transient docks, and they put their kayaks in the water there. I would instead recommend going to the Morehead City waterfront at 10th St., where there is a little beach, boat ramp, dock, small fishing pier, and kayak launch. This is just a block over from Jaycee Park where the other kayak company is located. From here, you can paddle over to Sugarloaf Island and enjoy the beaches on the island. Keep in mind that our amenities and grounds are shared with any guests vacationing at the Coastal Tiki Hideaway and the Coastal Cozy Camper, and there is not a reservation process for the kayaks. It is first come, first served. Also transportation of the kayaks to and from your destination is the responsibility of each of our guests, but feel free to message us with any questions or for any tips as you are planning your kayak trip. --THE LOCAL AREA-- The Coastal Tiki Hideaway and the Coastal Cozy Camper are located at the North Carolina Crystal Coast - NC's Southern Outer Banks - specifically the Morehead City area, just minutes away from historic Beaufort, Atlantic Beach, Pine Knoll Shores, Croatan National Forest, and Cape Lookout National Seashore. 1 mile to Restaurants/Stores 3 miles to Croatan National Forest public game lands 4 miles to Public Boat Ramp 6 miles to Morehead City Waterfront 6 miles to Atlantic Beach 9 miles to Beaufort 9 miles to Fort Macon State Park 11 miles to NC Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores --SPECIFIC LOCATION-- *Online Maps may have our address listed as either Morehead City, NC 29557 or Newport, NC 28570. This is the same location. If you look on the map, you’ll notice we are located in a small neighborhood just off of hwy 70 as Newport meets Morehead City. Also, online satellite maps may show an older view of what our street looked like from before Hurricane Florence, so don’t let it worry you if it doesn’t show campsites. :-) --WITHIN 5 MIN-- We are located in a neighborhood just a block’s walk to places like Dunkin’ Donuts, Fiesta Burrito Mexican Restaurant, and Circle K.

Coastal Tiki Hideaway & Cozy Camper

3 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents1 acre · Pine Knoll Shores, Carteret

Bring your RV (or tent) to the coast or camp in our RV! Nestled alongside our home, this camping retreat is just minutes from Morehead City’s waterfront, historic Beaufort, Atlantic Beach, Pine Knoll Shores, Croatan National Forest, and Cape Lookout National Seashore. After spending the day at the beach or exploring the area, come back to your cozy camper to relax in the hammock, grill out, eat at the picnic table under the expansive branches of our 30' magnolia tree, and gather ‘round the campfire to enjoy some s’mores. --COASTAL TIKI HIDEAWAY CAMPSITES-- We offer two campsites on 1/3 of an acre in Morehead City, NC - just minutes from the beach. Both are full hook-up (water, electric, sewer), 30 amp (not 50 amp), and are both set-up for RVs or tents. --COASTAL COZY CAMPER-- In addition to the two campsites, we also have our camper set-up for vacation rentals. Our 26’ Jayco Jay Flight Bunkhouse camper comfortably sleeps up to 5 and features a queen-size master bed with privacy curtain, a bunkhouse with two full-size beds and individual privacy curtains, and a convenient RV flip sofa. There is a built-in refrigerator/freezer and fully stocked kitchen with stove and oven and a kitchen table with booth seating. The bathroom has a standard RV tub shower with water heated by a 6-gallon propane water heater. The living room has a flat-screen TV, and the master bedroom has a flat-screen TV with Roku. High-speed WiFi throughout. --AMENITIES-- The campsites and camper are located in Morehead City next to our home on about 1/3 of an acre. The entire space is fenced-in. The entrance/exit, all amenities, and community space are located on the fenced-in lot next door to our home. We have an outdoor fire pit, charcoal grill, two picnic tables, Adirondack chairs, hammock, wooden bench swing, fishing kayaks, an outdoor sink and countertop area, palm trees, and boat trailer parking. --PET POLICY-- Pets are welcomed; although, certain pet breeds are restricted, such as Pit Bull, Doberman Pinscher, Rottweiler, and German Shepherd. Message host for specifics. Pets must be kept on a leash at all times. Please clean up after your pet. --WIFI-- We are a small, family-owned operation. At the current moment, we are not offering wifi. --KAYAKS-- The two fishing kayaks are complimentary and included in your stay. The kayak racks are located on the fence at the front of the property. There’s a life jacket and a whistle with each kayak, as you will need to have those on board per Coast Guard regulations. With the Crystal Coast having so many waterways and water access points, there really are several different places to launch your kayak throughout the area, so it's easy to have a unique experience with each new adventure! The two kayak launches that we recommend are the Beaufort waterfront and the Morehead City waterfront. The kayak launch on the Beaufort waterfront is near the corner of Front St and Pollock St at Grayden Paul Park. It is near all the ferry ticket booths and docks. The launch is a sandy strip of land, where you can easily get into the water and then paddle around Taylor’s Creek and enjoy Carrot Island. If you get lucky, you might see the wild horses on Carrot Island! At the Morehead City waterfront, there is a local kayak company at Jaycee Park by the transient docks, and they put their kayaks in the water there. I would instead recommend going to the Morehead City waterfront at 10th St., where there is a little beach, boat ramp, dock, small fishing pier, and kayak launch. This is just a block over from Jaycee Park where the other kayak company is located. From here, you can paddle over to Sugarloaf Island and enjoy the beaches on the island. Keep in mind that our amenities and grounds are shared with any guests vacationing at the Coastal Tiki Hideaway and the Coastal Cozy Camper, and there is not a reservation process for the kayaks. It is first come, first served. Also transportation of the kayaks to and from your destination is the responsibility of each of our guests, but feel free to message us with any questions or for any tips as you are planning your kayak trip. --THE LOCAL AREA-- The Coastal Tiki Hideaway and the Coastal Cozy Camper are located at the North Carolina Crystal Coast - NC's Southern Outer Banks - specifically the Morehead City area, just minutes away from historic Beaufort, Atlantic Beach, Pine Knoll Shores, Croatan National Forest, and Cape Lookout National Seashore. 1 mile to Restaurants/Stores 3 miles to Croatan National Forest public game lands 4 miles to Public Boat Ramp 6 miles to Morehead City Waterfront 6 miles to Atlantic Beach 9 miles to Beaufort 9 miles to Fort Macon State Park 11 miles to NC Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores --SPECIFIC LOCATION-- *Online Maps may have our address listed as either Morehead City, NC 29557 or Newport, NC 28570.
