The Refuge on Roanoke Island

Looking to commune with nature and avoid the rush of daily living? Take a break in the fishing village of Wanchese, and visit a 2 year-old camping getaway.

The refuge is not only beautiful, nestled in the local wetlands, but it allows for pleasurable activities that match the land and nearby water.  Catch crabs during your stay. Kayak or canoe on the pond. Watch the waterfowl take flight.

Amenities are abundant including a built-in swimming pool that overlooks the pond, a heated/air conditioned bathhouse with hot showers and separate facilities for men and women, WiFi, cable, laundry and recycling facilities, a pavilion overlooking the pond, which also can be rented for special occasions but is available for campers when not booked; picnic tables and hookups.

Folks choosing year-round leases pick from 44 lots. Fifteen lots are available for daily and weekly campers. Lots start at 30 feet and accommodate 45 foot-long vehicles. Book your stay early to reserve waterfront sites.

Call for reservations.
