Getting Outdoors

There is plenty of opportunities to get out hiking in the area. At the south-eastern end of the lake is the Lake Waccamaw Nature Loop, a 3.6-mile trail that follows the shoreline for half of its route before looping back to the start. It’s an easy trail, just right for the whole family, including your dog. A little further away near Wilmington, but a short drive in your rental RV, there are many well-marked trails along the coast and following Cape Fear River.

No complaints with the service. Observation - no access to the top bunk on this trailer, and bathroom was SOOO small.....but we survived. We actually vacated the trailer on Tuesday, Oct. 28, not Thursday, Oct. 30 Also, this email shows that there were 2 security deposits put on hold. Will both be released eventually?
