Best Cabin Camping near Duck, NC

219 Reviews

Several cabin camping options exist within a short drive of Duck, North Carolina, with facilities ranging from basic to well-appointed accommodations. North River Campground and Outer Banks West - Currituck Sound KOA offer cabin rentals with electricity, indoor plumbing, and climate control systems. Most cabins include beds, refrigerators, and microwave ovens, providing a comfortable alternative to tent camping. One camper noted that their experience at North River Campground was "really clean neat camp ground. Well cared for landscaping, nice lake, level parking spot with concrete patio." Cabin units typically accommodate between 4-6 people, with separate sleeping areas and modest living spaces.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. The KOA properties near Duck feature standardized cabin layouts with consistent amenities, while other properties like Sandy Point Resort Campground offer more unique accommodations. Some cabins include waterfront views of Currituck Sound, particularly at the Outer Banks West KOA where, according to one visitor, "We had a great view of the water and could see the Currituck lighthouse at night." Most locations are pet-friendly with appropriate fees, though size restrictions may apply. Reservations are essential during summer months when occupancy rates approach 100%, especially for premium waterfront cabin sites.

Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities vary significantly between properties—some cabins offer full kitchenettes with stovetops and basic cookware, while others provide only microwaves and mini-refrigerators. On-site camp stores at larger facilities like the KOAs stock essential groceries, ice, and camping supplies. Camp Hatteras and North Landing Beach also offer cabin rentals with varying levels of furnishings. A camper who stayed at West Outer Banks/Currituck Sound KOA mentioned, "The sound was great to swim in!" Many cabins include outdoor picnic tables, fire rings, and access to shared bathroom facilities with hot showers, though deluxe cabin options typically include private bathrooms.

    Cape Hatteras/Outer Banks KOA Resort

    Very nice

    They claim to be a camping resort. Well, their definition of resort and mine are different...The grounds were very well-kept. Their property is Right on the beach and has direct access. Nice sandy beaches. There is a freshwater shower at the entrance to the beach so that you can rinse off when you’re done. The bathhouse was nice and clean. The shower area is co-Ed. They have a cute little play area for the kids, and had scheduled fun activities throughout the week. (some required an extra fee) Office doubled as a little camp store with some basic groceries, cold drinks, and souvenirs type stuff. All of the staff that we came in contact with were extremely friendly and helpful. They have a really nice pool area with zero entry and two small waterslides for the kids. Plenty of chairs on the pool deck, and a small area of shade where you could eat or get out of the sun.They had sites for RVs all the way to tents. We splurged this time (heat, salt, and sand!) and opted for a camping cabin.(I somehow forgot to take pictures of the cabin, but it is identical to the one in my Arkansas review… Except no TV. I really thought there was a TV… But no matter, we didn’t miss it.) The camping cabin was basic one double bed one set of bunkbeds, there was air-conditioning and plenty of room. A nice swing on the covered porch. Picnic table, grill, and fire ring. The cabins were very close together, but it wasn’t an issue. This campground also offers deluxe cabins which look like your typical Beachhouse type rental. We were visiting on the holiday, I had looked into tent camping over the Fourth of July weekend and they wanted $150 a night for a TENT site. Yeah, I don’t think so. The beach at the Outer Banks is lovely, it’s not commercial and trashy (like I would describe Myrtle beach) and as far as I could see everyone on the beach was good about observing social distance, and Nobody crowded each other. We stayed three nights and had a wonderful time. Overall we will definitely stay here again. Oh, dogs are welcome year round on the beach, only restriction being they have to be leashed. They are also welcome at the campground and there is a dog play area and a dog bathing area.

    North Bayshore Campground

    Excellent family run campground close to Sandbridge beach

    Wonderful spot away from crowds but close to beach. Tent, RV or “ tiny cabin” options. Clean, quiet and pretty. Canal runs around campground that gives you access to Back Bay. Pool and playground. Small store. Super friendly staff. Love it there. 5 minute drive to Sandbridge. 15 to Va Beach strip. Level ground but water collects with heavy rains- to be expected at he beach.

    I think pets are OK. Good showers.

    Cape Hatteras/Outer Banks KOA Resort

    Campground for the whole family!

    They don't call this the Cape Hatteras KOA Resort for nothing!!  This family friendly campground has SOMETHING for every interest!  

    We have several family members/friends who would never camp tent - which makes this is the campground for this purpose!  We are not normally KOA campers, but to be able to stay in the same space as family - and for them to have beds and Aside from tent/RV sites, there are "deluxe cabins" or tiny homes, log cabins, raised cabins etc.  This is a KOA - so the spaces are tight and close together, but for this trips' purpose, it was fine.  

    Similarly, if you have people who would never swim in the ocean - they have you covered!  There is a large pool - a double waterslide, a hot tub, a kids pirate playground, 2 enormous jumping pillows, volleyball, horseshoes, basketball, tetherball, etc.  

    This KOA is directly on the beach - you never have to get back in your car if you don't want to!  There is a super boardwalk with a bathhouse right off the beach, outdoor shower area (which is SO nice) and even a fish cleaning station for the fisherpeople in your life.  Your four-legged friends are not left out - they have a dog pick up station too!  

    The ocean front campsites even offered covered picnic tables - which for us is always a big win!  We love having an extension of our tent because OBX weather is a little unpredictable and summer - well, we can expect an afternoon thunderstorm.   We also liked the choice of camping on the ocean side or the sound side.  There are benefits to both choices - is it more important to you to camp with the shortest walk to the beach?  Is it more important to camp where you can watch the most beautiful sunset from your tent?   

    We had wonderful weather and were so thankful for the proximity to the beach.  We caught a beautiful sunrise one morning - and usually we are the sunset chasers!  Our weather was excellent and the ocean water was about 74 degrees - refreshing - yet warm enough to play in!  A strong recommendation if you need some amenities for your camping experience!   

    Side note - my ECLIPSE EQUINOX hoodie was amazing as a wet sunshirt this trip.  Not only did I wear the shirt on the SUP but my brother in law loved it as well! I actually prefer this shirt as a swim/sun shirt rather than for hiking now that I tried it in the water.  I did not like the way the hood came over my face when I fell in.  It took me a minute to figure out how to get it off my face.  Yet, my brother in law loved the sunshirt and wore it with a hat on the SUP - said the hood was his favorite feature!!

    Cape Hatteras/Outer Banks KOA Resort

    Great Ocean Beach Destination

    Great KOA park with one row of dunes to cross to the ocean beach that depending on your site is only about 5 min walk. The park is well kept with clean bathrooms and showers. The have laundry and a very nice camp store with groceries, camping essentials and gifts. Sites are level with full hookups including cable that worked well. Wifi is marginal but they reported they have equipment on order to improve. We had spot along the dunes with covered patio with picnic table and a fire ring (no barbeques). The beach is wonderful. Great restful destination. We will definitely return.

    Virginia Beach KOA

    Wonderful campground

    We camped in site 364, deluxe patio pull thru. Concrete pad and fire pit, along w Trex style table and chairs were the perfect addition to the site. We used them all weekend. So much nicer than the traditional wooden picnic tables. Trolley runs every 20 mins or so to free beach area and along Atlantic Ave. $4pp over 17yo. Giant water slide, 2 very clean pool areas w a lot of seating, jumping air pillow and bike rentals. Tons for kids to do. Tonight we made and launched rockets. Overall, an excellent visit. One complaint is that people don’t seem to teach their children campground etiquette. We had kids run thru our site all the time. That was annoying, esp during meal time.  Overall, we highly recommended visiting this KOA!!

    Camp Hatteras

    Oceanfront RV Park

    We stayed over Christmas so as you would imagine, it was very quite. Its true oceanfront so you hear the waves from the van. Firewood and Ice available at the campstore. The sites are very close together with picnic tables. Note: no fire rings. If you wish to have a fire its BYO ring which must be up off the ground. The amenities are nice, loads of full hookup sites. Great location. Expensive park. Friendly owners. Contact-less check-In was easy with a pre-prepared pack.

    Virginia Beach KOA

    Awesome Place

    The Virginia Beach KOA is a nice place to stay. Plenty of things to do every day. This is a newly renovated KOA, and they added a lot of new sites. Also a new pool with a lazy River. We stayed at a premium site which provided a fire ring, a picnic table, and 3 chairs on the paved site. The landscaping is very well kept. There are some sites that have plenty of shade, but a good amount of them don’t. If you are a family with kids, this is definitely a KOA for you to check out. They provide you with a schedule outlining all of the events they will be having that week. There was a day where a few food trucks visited, including our favorite, a Rita’s food truck. They had live music most nights, which is always a hit or miss, but still fun. They have a dog park for your furry friends. One of the best parts of this KOA is the bus service that runs from the campground to Virginia Beach proper. It even takes you to the VA Beach Aquarium, which is our favorite. The bus allows you to bring all your beach gear and runs well into the evening. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay at this KOA and would definitely return.

    Sea Mist RV Campground

    On the beach for RV campers

    We werent able to stay here because on arrival we found out that not only do they not have designated tent sites, but that tenters arent even allowed! Very disappointing. That being said, RV campers will be very happy to stay here. There are two loops, the south loop is older with many trees and shade and more space between sites, the northern loop is new and treeless and open with sites close together. However, both loops have direct access to an incredible extensive strand of premier beach right on the ocean, with the protection of a natural sand dune barrier. There is a bathhouse and central MWR clubhouse as well. The south loop does offer basic bunk camper cabins as well, and there are full fledged cottages north of the north loop at Dam Neck; however, as mentioned, no tent camping at all! Hence my knocking the rating down a star.

    This campground is on a Navy base near Virginia base, so you do need a military connection to make use of any of the recreational facilities including the campground. But the base MWR has extensive recreational equipment rentals, and you would have access to other typical base amenities
