Our Story

A Quiet Corner of the World, Waiting for You

Nestled along the banks of French Creek in the charming community of Templeton, Nautical Mile Marina & Campground has been a haven for outdoor enthusiasts and weekend travelers for decades.

We believe that the best vacations aren't about rushing from one attraction to the next. They're about the slow morning coffee on the dock, the sound of water lapping against your boat, and the stars that seem close enough to touch from your campsite.
