Review Detail

This was our first time out with our new 23-foot travel trailer, and we spent three nights. MCAS Cherry Point is near Havelock, NC, midwayish between New Bern and Atlantic Beach/Morehead City (which is on the NC Coast). Please note that this campground is on a military base and is available only to Military (Active, Reserve, NG, Retired) and Department of Defense employees. Enter at either 1) the main gate off of US-70 onto Roosevelt Blvd or 2) Slocum Ave gate off of US-70. Proceed down Roosevelt Blvd for about 3.9 miles to Monroe Dr. Turn left at sign to Pelican Point RV Park and Marina. Turn left into the RV Park. Office is on the left. ---- NOTE!!! The Main Gate has an overhead height of 13'6". We used the Slocum Gate. Because we arrived on a Sunday and during the weekend of a Federal Holiday, we checked in with the camp host (who was located in space #23) and registered/paid when the staff returned on Tuesday. The spaces are fairly roomy and most of them can be pulled-through (although they are paved for back-in). The amenities were as stated, and were in good condition. We spent our days visiting the coast and going into New Bern, but we found the campground to be quite peaceful (except of course, this is a Marine Corps air base, so we did hear a lot of aircraft (F-18, CV-22, etc.) flying overhead. The main base is just a few miles down the road, with an Exchange, Commissary, and other typical military base resources.
