The Great Outdoors

Lots of people head for the lush forests and pristine beaches of North Carolina each spring and summer, to enjoy some of the most enchanting outdoors areas on the East Coast. With an Engelhard camper rental, you’ll have the freedom to move about the area to customize the perfect itinerary for yourself, checking off the best state parks, national forests, wildlife refuges, and campgrounds on your list. Engelhard is surrounded by wildlife refuges, integral parts of the ecosystem designed to accommodate a wide range of wildlife. Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge is a 150,000-acre sanctuary where tons of migratory birds and woodland creatures are studied, preserved, and protected from human development. This particular refuge is world famous for its red wolf population, one of the only places they can be found in the world. Mattamuskeet National Wildlife Refuge is minutes from town, encapsulating Lake Mattamuskeet, also full of animals like red wolves, black bears, white-tail deer, and bobcats.

RV Parks

There are lots of campgrounds to make use of in the area, and most of them are found across the Pamlico Sound on the barrier islands of North Carolina. Ocean Waves Campground could be a fantastic place to call home for a few days, with cooling sea breezes, a fully stocked camp store, a pool, and much more.

City Sightseeing

Engelhard is practically a one-road town, so aside from a few local restaurants, a hotel, and a church, you won’t find much excitement hanging out in the town itself. There are some unique old buildings to check out if you enjoy that sort of thing, like Wynne’s Folly, an old plantation house built in 1848. This Greek Revival style house is made from bricks and has been on the National Register of Historic Places for a few decades. Inkwell is another historic home by Lake Mattamuskeet, with a unique design resembling an octagon. This home is open a few times per year for tours, with divine apple orchards adorning its lands.

This is our 2nd time renting from Tom. He is very timely with communication, organized, and very professional. Camper is clean and well kept. The air conditioner blows cold on those hot summer days! Delivery drop off and pick up was seamless. Highly recommend!
