Three reasons to subscribe.
Monthly construction update
Photos and progress from Doug. The actual story of how a 65-site campground gets built — equipment, hiccups, decisions, what's coming next. Sent the first week of the month.
Early-bird booking access
Subscribers get a 24-hour advance window on the Azalea Festival weekend, July 4 on the Battleship, Halloween weekend, snowbird stays, and opening weekend. The dates that always sell out first.
Wilmington travel tips
The Camp Guide editorial team writes one local trip-planning post a month — Wrightsville Beach itineraries, Carolina Beach with kids, Halloween in Wilmington, what to do when it rains. Subscribers get the early preview.
What the emails actually look like.
Short. One photo or two. A few paragraphs. A clear "here's what's next." Not a sales pitch.
"Subject line: 'Construction update: the pond's full of water.' Body: actual photo, two paragraphs about how the engineering got there, and a one-line preview of what's next. That's the cadence."
If you don't like it, the unsubscribe link is at the bottom of every email. We won't take it personally.
