Family Fun at Cedar Island Ranch
Horseback Riding
We’re famous for splendid 90-minute rides and the excitement of spotting the legendary Wild Colonial Spanish Mustangs (oh, they’re real).
Crabbing and Clamming
Crab is a verb here. Crabbing, clamming, and casting a net to catch local shrimp provides a day of fun and dinner!
Fishing
Have the camera ready – it’s going to be epic. From beach or boat, the best trophy fishing of your life: speckled trout, flounder, red drum, mackerel, blue fish, and mullet.
Playground
Relax while the kids swing, slide and climb in the shade. Or join in the fun.
Volleyball
Many happy hours in the sand. Stop by the front office to check-out a ball – and play hard, but play nice.
Horseshoes
Gesundheit! The horses have donated their old shoes (you should see the size of their closets!). They’ll tell you: it’s the only way to throw a shoe.
Cornhole
The great Cedar Island outdoors gives the ever-popular target game new excitement.
Pet-friendly
Dogs and iguanas welcome on the beach and in the campground, if they behave themselves.
Canoes & Kayaks
There is no better way to get a close glimpse at the fantastic beauty of Cedar Island than cruising through the Bay on a canoe or kayak.
Natural Beaches
If you are looking for relaxation, our pristine white sand beaches are calling your name! The waters of the Pamlico Sound are quiet, and sandbars are frequently formed throughout the shoreline, making the waters perfect for sunbathing, walking, or playing with young children.
Modern Camping at Cedar Island Ranch
Free WIFI
Fast, reliable Wi-Fi, necessary for roughing it. Did we mention it’s free?

What did you forget? We’ve probably got it if it’s legal. Fishing gear, fishing licenses, ice and all the convenience store fare.

Clean up in our modern bath house.
Fire Rings
Every pad and cabin gets its own fire ring with a nice bench for fire-watching. You’ll find wood at the Camp Store.

Dog Park
Fun and freedom in a fenced fortress fit for Fido.
