First off, don't move into Charlotte proper. Move into one of the adjoining counties. Lower taxes and more home for the money. Plenty of camping places in nearby areas. State parks and private owned camp grounds, i.e.Good Sams or KOA.
Camping in NC is great. Mountains, beach, lakes or streams, you've got it all in NC.

When we go there we stay at Carowinds Camp Wilderness. It is part of Carowinds theme park.
Nice place, flat, large sites, easy in/out, nice location, quiet (occasional overhead airlines as it is near airport but they don't fly at night - or I don't hear them.
We were there last when our son & DIL moved from Denver to the Charlotte area. They ended up in a new house in Indian Land on 521 just south of Charlotte, so they are in S Carolina (and enjoying a lower tax base and infrastructure that supports all the new growth there).
If you need a good realtor in that area let me know. Their's was fantastic - high energy, very knowledgeable. I also know of one to avoid if looking on the north side of Charlotte.Larry KE4DMG

LOL, thats exactly where I live. Indian Land is great, however, the explosive growth in the area is taking its toll on the roads and the ability to get anywhere quickly. Fort Mill is also nice, but expensive, and has nice schools. There is a Cabela's right next to the Carowinds Park if you want to do some outdoor shopping too.

You all are so wonderful! Thank you for the info. My work is north of Charlotte in Mooresville. I think a commute to Indian land is an hr 1 way.

You'll also be able to enjoy the MANY great State Parks in South Carolina. If you like camping near the beach, SC will be a great option for you. NC beach camping is better for the Overland guys. But NC has great mountain and lake camping for sure!
