About Beechland Campground

Beechland Campground is a small, family-owned campground on the edge of Manteo on Roanoke Island, run by the same local family behind The Refuge in Wanchese. It is the “town” basecamp of the Outer Banks: about a mile from downtown Manteo’s waterfront, restaurants and shops, with sunset views over the Croatan Sound and the island’s history — Fort Raleigh, the aquarium and The Lost Colony — close by. All sites carry full hookups, and the campground takes RVs, travel trailers, fifth-wheels and motorhomes; it does not offer tent camping.

Campground Layout and Site Types

Sites sit on gravel pads with 30- and 50-amp full hookups, in back-in and pull-through configurations, and a heated pool overlooks the sound. The campground is compact and family-run, with a small on-site farm nearby (not a campground amenity). Exact site count and maximum rig length are not published online — call 252-260-5800 to confirm the right site for your rig before you book.

Tips for Your Stay

Bring bikes: downtown Manteo is an easy ride away, and the town setting is the whole appeal. Note that Beechland is RV-only — no tents — and that sites are assigned on arrival. Call ahead about rig length if you are running a larger setup, and ask about the military discount when you book.
