A family-owned campground in the middle of Brunswick County, built by people who sold the house, moved into a fifth wheel for a year, and came home knowing exactly what they wanted to make. Thirty full-hookup sites, eight cabins, and a week's worth of reasons not to get back in the car.

Two-night minimum · two-week maximum · open year-round. Booking runs through NewBook — deep-linked by stay type, so a guest lands on what they picked.
Thirty full-hookup sites, eight cabins that are closer to cottages, and one loaded rental RV for the friends who don't own one. Every site and every cabin gets a fire pit, a picnic table and two parking spots.
30 SitesLevel gravel, 50 amp, water and sewer, and room for a tent alongside. Big-rig friendly, and nothing stacked on top of anything else.
Eight CabinsCedar-lined, vaulted, each one styled differently. Kitchen, bath, linens, coffee maker, smart TV, and a porch you'll actually sit on.
No RV NeededOur own fully loaded rig, parked and ready. The easy way to camp alongside friends who own one — or to try the life before you buy into it.
A 360° tour of the whole forty acres — plus the park's own film, shot from the ground and from the air. Spin the cabin row, look down the RV rows, see the pool from above, then pick the spot you actually want.
Every cabin and most of the sites look onto the common area, so you can sit down with a coffee and still see everybody. That is the whole design.
Which is the detail parents of small swimmers keep writing about. Loungers, shade, the bathhouse a few steps away and the pines right behind it.
An easy walk through the pines with a llama beside you. Vicki from SundMist guides it and stops at the hidden pond.
Mown grass paths through undeveloped pine woods. Morning runs, dog walks, bikes.
A kinder, gentler dodgeball, and the reason nobody comes back to the site until dinner.
Cedar walls, vaulted ceilings, and a porch. Eight cabins, no two the same.
After ten years of running franchises and five years in our first home, we sold it all and moved into a fifth wheel full-time with our two girls and two dogs. We'd never really camped before. We dove in headfirst.
A year on the road later we knew what a campground was supposed to feel like — so we came home to North Carolina and built one. You'll find us here most days, because this is also where we live.

The bathhouse feels like a luxury home. I walk over alone to shower, and I feel safe.Google review
Fourteen of the guest reviews we read mention how clean this place is, and more of them name the bathhouse than any other building on the property. The current website never uses the word.
A lot of places say that they treat your family like their own. This place does it.Google
They're kind and remember who you are.Google
This place has an overland travel feel. Close to the main road but not too close — it is still peaceful here.The Dyrt

Written to be machine-readable — this is what an answer engine quotes when somebody asks a chatbot what In The Pines costs. Four booking directories currently publish four different starting prices and the park publishes none.
Four campgrounds within twenty-five miles sit closer to the sand than we do. None of them has forty acres of pine woods, a gem-mining sluice and a llama. That's the trade, and we think it's the better one.
Two-night minimum, open all year. If you're not sure which site or cabin suits you, call us — we'll talk it through.
We'd love to host you — Bryan & Jessie
