Duck Neck Campground

4 ReviewsAdd Review

Duck Neck Campground operates on the Chester River with boat-in access only, creating a water-focused camping experience for RV and tent campers willing to transport their gear by boat. This private campground accommodates RVs up to 60 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections, plus a dump station for additional convenience.

The campground consists primarily of seasonal sites, with approximately 25-30 spots available for transient campers according to visitor reports. Five waterfront sites provide direct river views at premium rates, while the remaining sites sit closely spaced throughout the property. "Mostly seasonal trailers and campsites," notes Roscoe T., reflecting the established community of long-term campers who return each season.

Amenities include restrooms, showers, and a pool area with playground equipment, though reviews indicate the bathhouses show their age and maintenance varies. Cell service proves spotty across major carriers, and the remote location requires a 20-minute drive to reach restaurants or supplies. The campground features a fishing pier and boat ramp, making it primarily suited for visitors with watercraft.

For those preferring land-based access, White Swan Tavern offers traditional camping west of the area.

Several reviews noted the campground's waterfront location with boat access as the main attraction. However, many visitors reported overcrowded sites, dated facilities, and limited activities make it challenging for families.

Below our standards

Mostly seasonal trailers and campsites. If it were not for the Chester River and dock there would be nothing left to do. Staff was fair and obviously not trained with how to provide good customer service. They have five waterfront sites that provide a great view and perhaps 25-30 others for transients. All of the sites are very close together so you better hope for a good, quiet neighbor. The bathhouses have toilets and showers that are very dated and NOT CLEANED OFTEN. My photos will show:

  1. A beautiful view of the river if you want to pay a premium for these sites.
  2. Debris left in the bathhouse for quite some time and the dated conditions of same. I will not be returning to this campground.

Packed in like sardines!

We’ll never come back here!!! Campers are packed in so closely most can’t open their awnings. Our door is about 5ft from the neighbors sewer drain and we’re inches from a tree on the other side. Flies everywhere, zero privacy (we can’t even open the blinds. My neighbor sneezed last night and we could hear him from ours. Nothing to do here if you don’t have a boat. Seasonal campers look like they’ve been here 20yrs+. Some newer ones, but not really. Unattended dogs. If we weren’t so far from home, we would’ve left already. Tomorrow can’t some soon enough!

Not what I’m use too

This campground is mostly seasonal campers that keep to themselves. Not much for the kids, they do have a pool and small playground. There is a nice pier and boat ramp. Bathrooms by the pool are nice and clean did not check the second bathhouse but was told you needed a code to access it. No cable or internet and cell service for att, sprint, and T-Mobile was spotty. I can’t say anything bad about the place other then there is nothing to do or activities for the kids but if you would like to get away from it all and do a little fishing this is the place. You have to drive at least 20 minutes to find food and things to do.
