"Camp Hook" offers an active, social atmosphere in a safe and comfortable country setting!
Every "camper" has ample daily playtime out of his kennel with compatible dogs, under our watchful eyes. For dogs that don't play well with others, we humans provide the entertainment while we teach them to get along. There are toys galore, and a large pool for warm weather. We've just added a baby pool for vertically challenged dogs.
We have only 15 kennels open for campers, so each dog is able to enjoy a very personal experience!
A lifeguard is always on duty to make sure everyone has a good, safe time at Camp!
Every dog has a shaded kennel and water is replaced daily, or more often as it warms in summer. Most love a dip in the pool. The dogloos have cedar shavings all summer to discourage insect pests.
Don't worry about your dogs getting too cold in the winter--I won't let that happen. The dogloos are stuffed with hay in the cold months and the dogs make themselves a snug nest.
A dog makes it very clear when he's uncomfortable!
I keep 20 crates, mostly very large, set up in my barn, complete with blankets and comforters. When the nighttime temperatures dip too low or severe weather threatens, the dogs have a slumber party in the barn.
We also have jackets for dogs in cold, wet weather if they haven't brought one. You can't tell a dog he can't get out to play just because it's a little blustery for humans!
Hours of Operation:
9am-5pm for drop offs and pick ups, unless special arrangements have been made.
We are closed for drop offs and pick ups on these days:
New Year's Day
Easter Sunday
July 4th
Thanksgiving
Christmas Eve after 12pm
Christmas Day
Rates:
The fee is $20 per day, per dog, counting from the day your "camper" arrives and including the day he is picked up. The reduced rate for 3 dogs is $50/day for all 3.
Please pay for the days you reserve, even if you pick your dog up early--I have had to tell another dog's owner the kennel was taken.
We do NOT charge extra to administer medications, vitamins, treats or kind words!
Current shots and kennel cough vaccine required.
Bring your dog's food in a covered container to discourage critters from thinking this is Golden Corral.
We accept cash and checks. Sorry, no credit cards.
We also provide horses, cattle, and other livestock to bark at for no extra charge!

Camp hijinks...
Leapin' lizards, Lily!
We have moved!
The new address is 10829 Old Raleigh Wilson Rd., Middlesex, NC 27557.
After leasing the old place for 10 years, I have finally bought my very own farm!
8 quiet, peaceful, and beautiful acres!
It's only 3 miles from the old place, so don't panic that I've hidden even further into the boonies. It's easy to find.
The 64 bypass off the Beltline cuts over 15 minutes from the Raleigh drive. Now that the 540 connection is finished, it cuts 20 minutes off the driving time from Durham. The world keeps getting smaller!
Directions to Camp Hook:
- Directions from Raleigh:
- Take the beltline (440) to the new bypass, Hwy 64/264 E/Rocky Mount. It will completely bypass Knightdale and all those traffic lights! Ride that bad boy all the way and it spits you out on Hwy 64 E.
- Go past the Wendell exits, and then past the Zebulon exit.
- The next exit after Zebulon is Five County Stadium/Wilson 264 E. Take this exit.
- The second exit off 264 E. is Selma-Louisburg/264Alt./Hwy 39. Take this exit and turn right off the ramp--Hwy 39 S. Five County Stadium (our famous Mudcats) will be on your right.
- Take an immediate left onto ALT 264.
- Go 4.2 scenic miles until you hit the only traffic light in Middlesex, at HWY 231. Turn right.
- Go 2.4 equally scenic miles to the split intersection of HWY 231 and Old Raleigh Wilson Rd. After you leave Middlesex, it will be the third left.
- Our driveway is .4 miles from the intersection--the second on the right after you turn. The famous Camp Hook wagon is at the entrance.
- You made it! Honk if you don't see us!
- The sign directs you to park by the kennel house.
