Cape Hatteras Natl Seashore/Oregon Inlet

This is one of our favorite campgrounds. It is incredibly hard to get in, but when you do... it's worth it. The electric sites are hard to get for a few days consecutively. You need to stay on rec.gov app (or set up notifications.) Section A is for tenting or roof top tents. The B/C section can be for tenting as well, but it's primarily trailers, rvs, pop-ups. This area has some electric sites that go fast. It's a real deal compared to glamping campgrounds. You will get sandy. It might be hot. The showers have hot water, but it is rationed by a pull string. They are not completely closed in, so expect some bugs. Quiet time 10-6, no generators during that time. No golf carts. Sites are paved, but skinny. Trailer and pull vehicle need to be off the grass. Some sand spurs. It's the beach ya'll!

Pretty exposed to the elements. Check the weather before you get there and prepare. Bring LONG (flat or bent bar, if you can find them) tent stakes for the sandy soil! Sustained 20mph winds are no joke. The place is kept as well as any National Park. If you camp on the eastern side of the grounds you have the Atlantic Ocean in your backyard. The sites are really close together but it builds a sense of community. Good place to bring a family/kids looking to build core memories.

This was our first time camping at a beach, so I was skeptical if I'd like camping in the wide open with no trees or privacy. But we picked site C19 (with water and electric) and it was great!! You can sit out back on your chair and face the dune and watch the moon rise in the evening and enjoy the ocean breeze. Sort of a long walk to the beach if you don't have a 4wd but it's still worth it. The marina across the street is very very nice, clean, loaded with all the things you'd want or need on your stay. Oregon Inlet is nice because you're away from all the traffic and busyness of the main highway at the Outer Banks. We will definitely return for the off-season!

Excellent location. Very central for the outer banks. Easy to find as well as easy to maneuver into our campsite. Very clean facilities throughout. The only downside we saw was not enough showers there was a line for showers every time we went. Otherwise, we loved it and would go back

This establishment is truly delightful, aside from the wind and lack of sleep last night. However, we cannot complain. We choose to be flexible and make the best of any situation that arises. The bathrooms are exceptionally clean, featuring open showers, as depicted in the photograph in front of the bathroom. I appreciate the open shower design, as it provides effective cooling, preventing me from sweating after showering. The sites are meticulously maintained, clean, level, and well-manicured. A short walk over the dunes from the sites leads directly to the beach. It is essential to note that there are no trees in the area, so summer visitors should be prepared. Although sewage facilities are not available, a dump station is conveniently located across from the campground. We will undoubtedly return in the fall.
