I have stayed at North River Campground for the last 30 days. It is such an enjoyable place to be. Beautiful grounds that are far and beyond what you would expect from a normal campground. The lake, fishing and quietness are what i like most of all. I am not sure how long I will be here, but you can bet that I will be back. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Sawyer for a great place to relax!

As an Aviation Contractor, my wife and I have had the pleasure of finding this campground. Over the next 12 months I have found that this campground offers excellent accomodations, activities for every age group. We found this campground to be maintained and operated by Judy & Everett Sawyer, and the made us feel like family, a true pleasure to have met. They strive for perfection, and those who have stayed at this campground will agree, the lawns are maintained, trimmed, RV sites have patios, and pinic tables, all or most overlooking a 5 acre lake. The Sawyers, even have train rides for the children, and it was amazing to see all the children riding around the lake on this train. I would recommend this campground to any first time campers, as well as the numerous groups which exisit. The quality of this campground sets the standards for others to follow. I would like to thank the Sawyers for their hospitality and friendship, and look forward to planning a vacation there in the near future.

We just stayed at North River campground last night and had a wonderful time. I must agree that this campground is spotless. We brought our inflatable canoe and paddled around the lake and under the fountain to cool off. The staff are extremely friendly. The fire ring was so nice to enjoy. Will we return? You bet - we have already made reservations :) If you love nature - you will love this campground tucked away off the beaten path.

We come here every year to break in our new Scouts and Parents to the camping experience and to let the Parents see what they should have to go camping. This campground has all the best that Camping has to offer for Cub Scouts. The sites are clean and the owners take good care of the grounds and are very friendly. We look forward to this camping trip every year. If your Scouts are looking for GREAT Place to camp this would be it!!!!

VERY clean, neat and QUIET campground. Beautiful large site, serene wooded surroundings, and pretty lake with a fountain. Did I say QUIET? It was the most relaxing campground my wife and I have visited. Thanks, we'll be back.

Found out about North River campground from my Sister who lives in Currituck. It is a beautiful campground in a secluded area away from freeway noises. We stayed 11 days to attend our Nephews wedding and see the sights in the area. It is definitely one of the best campgrounds we have stayed at in our years of traveling. Especially enjoyed the pizza and hot wings on site.

Robert & Louise Webster


This place is an old folks home. Seriously, I do believe the 2 small boys with us were the only children present. The place was pristine and very well kept up. No complaints there. We felt somewhat harassed by the owners due to where we parked our golf carts, how we loaded our golf carts, general nitpicking of our group (3 paid sites, 2 nights). Will we be here again- NO. One of our friends brought his dog who does not ever wander off and the owners threatened to kick him out if "he didn't get his dog on a leash right now". Rude. Sorry, this is a negative testimonial so it is doubtful it will be published on your website.

Just wanted to say thanks for a clean, quiet, friendly campground. Thanks Everett and Judy for making us feel right at home.

Good luck with the new season.

Judy and Everett, we would like to thank you for a great time this past week. It was great for all five of the brother's to be together again on New Year's eating oysters and all the good food everyone cooked. We have camped in alot of campgrounds and yours is a STAR FIVE. We have never camped where the owners carried so much for their guest. I hope everyone will come out and visit. Beautiful-Beautiful place.

We stayed at the campground in Mid October 2008. We have never stayed at a campsite that was so clean and so friendly! We stayed with our two small dogs and even the puppies loved the grounds. The hospitality was incredible, the pizza a good alternative to local dining. We felt welcome and genuinely comfortable. The lake was beautiful with the fountain. We even tried fishing for a bit. We were attended to so graciously and enjoyed our relaxing stay. We will surely visit again. Thanks for making us Marylander's feel relaxed and welcome!

We had visited North River Campgrounds in September and really enjoyed our weekend there.  Judy and Everett made us feel very welcome at the campgrounds.  They even took time to visit the campsites in the evening, just to say Hello and to see if we needed anything.  Then we returned again for a lengthy stay of 7 weeks while we waiting to get into our new home. I would highly recommend this campground to everyone.  The campgrounds extremely clean and they have a wonderful family environment.  Fishing on the lake is very enjoyable and not to mention the gorgeous sunsets over the lake are breath taking.  Judy, Everett and Debbie made us feel very welcome as if we were apart of their family.   They have terrific pizza, hot wings and other foods  Their breakfast pizza is a great alternative to a traditional breakfast.   If you travel  in the Camden county area you need to make a stop here, because if is well worth the visit.  Thanks to Judy, Everett and Debbie for making our extended stay so enjoyable.

This was our first time camping in our travel trailer. Judy and Debbie really helped us check in quickly and get us to our site which was a really large site, all neat and the grounds were beautiful. The lake and fountain was so nice. I'll remember to bring my fishing pole next time. Everette was so helpful with setting us all up and showing us the hookups. Knowing that we were new at this he would check on us from time to time as he would ride on his golf cart setting up the other campers arriving. I've been camping at several places as a child and with family. I have never been to a campground that was kept in such a pristine condition. It was evident that Everette and Mary care about their campers and their campground. I am definitely going back. Also it is so close to Nags Head and the Outer Banks. We are from Va. Beach but those that are interested in visiting Va. Beach or the Outer Banks you are only slightly over an hour away in either direction. Thank you so much Everette, Judy, and Debbie. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to see you again soon.

We stayed at North River Campground this past weekend for the first time and we will definitely be coming back. Everette , Judy & Debbie made us feel right at home. We rented one of the apartment suites and had plenty of room. Everything was so clean and nice. I have told everybody about this place. Can't wait to get back. The grounds are beautiful. Flowers everywhere. Felt just like we were at home. I can't say enough. Thanks again for making our weekend so enjoyable.

What a gem! Immaculate grounds and sites in a peaceful location. Such friendly owners, too. We stayed here 3 nights, an hour's drive away from the hub-bub on the Outer Banks where our nephew got married. One of the best campgrounds we've experienced. Pizza and sandwiches on site so if you don't feel like cooking or going out, that's a great option. Many local farmer's markets for fresh produce. North River Campground and Everett, Judy, and Debbie are the cream of the crop.

Charles and Carol Cook


First and foremost we imagine when you look up the meaning of Southern Hospitality we would find the names of Judy and Everett Sawyer. The moment our group arrived; we were wholeheartedly welcomed; we felt right at home. We have been camping since 1978 and have not visited a better kept campground-- on a scale of 1 - 10; we would rate this one a 12. It is gorgeous!! The grounds are immaculate, the sites are large with concrete patios, table and flowers -- really nice. Everett came by several times to ask if we needed anything-- and sometimes just to chat-- that was nice!!! We would highly recommend North River Campground to everyone; it is worth the trip. Thanks Judy and Everett for making our week-end so enjoyable. We will definitely return.
