Very nice place,well keep,nice paved streets,nice boat ramps,nice piers,nice laundry room, good cell service. WiFi available for $$$ more,cable 👎👎👎 Wanted to stay for a month but only had 21 days opening. $1800 👎

This is a great campground if you don’t want to be far off the main road or by yourself. It is bustling with activity and people and everyone was very nice! The pool is amazing! The slide is so fun! It has 3ft all the way to 6ft roped off sections in the pool! Lots of year round permanent residence with some super cute homes. There is a lake in the middle. The gate closes at 4 and you must have a pass to open it. Very nice place! 

Must go

We enjoyed our stay at Goose Creek! Beautiful area, great family atmosphere and clean facilities. The pool is awesome! Great location, can’t wait to come back!

Nice overnight stay RV Campground new with no shade Very clean Beautiful river but not walking distance from campground Staff friendly I’d say much better in the early spring or fall

My wife and I spent a few days here while searching the area for potential retirement location. It's also a seasonal campground. Bathrooms were spotless, beautiful pool and a nice little waterslide for the kids. Our site was right on water with a great view of the sunset. The barrier Island's are only 5 minute ride over the bridge

This is a great place to stay stocked catch and release fishing ponds. Storage units available on sight. Bath house fire pits level high lots shaded lots and much more.

We spent 11 months at this campground when we needed to live on the coast. It fit our needs as it was safe and reasonably priced for the amenities included (water, sewage, electric, internet, and cable). The campground is well kept as the owner takes pride in his establishment.

We lived here from July 2020 - May 2021

Been here for a year and a half so far. Very friendly people and lots of kids. Alot of full timers here too.

just want to start by saying the camp host, Tanya, is awesome. super friendly and helpful. bathrooms were very clean and well stocked.

the flys were bitting, but the mosquitos were not terrible.

there is water access but no beach.

sites have a good amount of trees to give prIvacy.

$10 a night

Oyster Point Campground is no frills. But vault toilets were well maintained and cleaned. 

Campsites are large and spread out. Logs were at each campsite when we arrived,  great for firewood or for seating around the campfire. 

Campground sits along a body of water, but no water access from any sites. At the entrance to campground there are hiking trails.

Area is remote. Closest shopping was more than 10 miles away.

Host was friendly and personable.

Highly recommend and will return again ourselves.

It was our first time visiting. The host was very nice, the camp sites clean and kept. We found a few paths to the river but the river access was very small. There is a Mountain-to-Sea path nearby as well.

Found the campground on a map and went to see what it was all about. Sites are very large and well maintained. The bathroom is a vaulted toilet. The water spot is close to sites. No power, that makes it real camping. Great experience.

Nice little campground well kept. Make sure you don’t check in after hours lol. Make sure you bring good bug spray!!!

We really enjoyed our night at Oyster Point.  The host was friendly and helped me find another campsite when my was taken by an unregistered guest.  We were able to launch kayaks almost directly from campsite #11.  Tent pads are big enough for 1 large tent or 2 small tents.  The campground is small so fairly quiet.

**Pro's: **

Metal Fire Ring/Grill 

Picnic tables 

Lots of lantern hooks

 Port a Johns were very clean

Some cons:

The bugs are bad in June and bug spray didn't really help.

The sites aren't in order by number. 

The gravel road had a lot of ruts in it so getting my trailer with kayaks in and out was a lot of trouble.

No showers

Port a johns were noticeably tilted down hill

Nice quiet rustic with lots of privacy if you choose. Very friendly onsite host.

This helps find any campgrounds anywhere awesome

We tent camped at this small (16 sites) campground in late May. The location is pretty and on the water. Not a swimming place, but there is a launch for canoes and kayaks. The location is a perfect staring point for hiking in Croatan National Forest. Fierce biting bugs and ticks during certain seasons, so bug spray is a must! Campsites are large and clean with some shade and old (need repair) picnic tables and fire pits. Some sites have electric hook ups. Toilet facilities are there but I do not recommend. Sites feel relatively private, but you do sometimes hear your neighbors. Most sites had RV campers when we stayed there. Also small youth groups frequent this location. Good for tent camping and not far to Carteret County beaches.

We loved our 2 night visit to Oyster Point Campground. Large campsite with shade and privacy, next to the Newport river, and very quiet. Insects were not bad at all (mid October). Campground host was very friendly. Fire pits and picnic tables are showing age and could be replaced. Other than that, a perfect stay.

Fun place to camp, water close by, picnic table and fire ring. Tent pads are pretty big. Host is very nice and cheap.
