Nicely laid out sites that are a bit close but still not bad, room for slides.  Some trees or shrubs would be nice.  An amazing olympic size swimming pool.  Love the cabins and bright paint plays into the whole beach theme.  Concrete pads are great for larger RV's but road is a bit tight.  Most sites have water, sewer, and electric hookups.  No fire rings or open fires.  They also have Wifi and cable, and air conditioned bath house. There is a laundry facility and store on site.  The site is just minutes from the beach.  You can fish right on the site in the canal or launch your kayak.  Club house for adults, site is pet friendly.  Relax and enjoy the amazing sunsets, they are awesome.

Island Hide a way : I suppose this would be a spot if you’re coming down to fish, etc. However, this is not look to be a picturesque place to camp. (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good (70 yr olds in 17’ trailer). Desire for at least moderately secluded campsites to be offered is important to me.

We stayed at Hatteras Sands Campground for Memorial Day weekend and had an amazing time. They had nice sites with 50 amp and 30 amp hook ups and WiFi throughout the camp ground. Each site also has free cable with a long list of channels and they are actually good channels so don’t forget to bring the coax cable. The WiFi wasn’t blazing fast but it’s free WiFi. Each site has a concrete pad for the trailer. They are pet friendly. There bath house is clean and well kept. They have a pool and games in the office for everyone as well as a laundry center. And all of the staff in the office was amazing and so friendly. Definitely a little more of a drive to get to than other sites but it’s definitely worth it. It’s about an hour and a half from the heart of nags head and kitty hawk. Amazing campground and can’t wait to go back and will drive the extra hour for anytime!

Frisco: The best camp sites in all of Hatteras NSS are in this campground. It is just north of Ocracoke- Hatteras Ferry. There are some sites with views and some sites with privacy - Every site here is better than the open park like setting at the other Hatteras NSS campgrounds. . Dense oak and juniper shrubs break up the campground and give a degree of separation to sites….. Frisco closes for the season on Nov 27. Sad. Oregon Inlet and Ocracoke remain open. (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good (70 yr olds in 17’ trailer). Desire for at least moderately secluded campsites to be offered is important to me. Overall Rating: 4.5. More privacy offered here than Oregon Inlet where we also stayed. Least of campsites are better, in my opinion, than Oregon Inlet. No electricity here, though!

Road Noise: Far from a road Through Traffic in campground: No reason. The perimeter road on the right side is going to see more traffic. That’s because campers will be driving to their sites on the one way interior roads - when it’s busy. However, there are great sites on the perimeter .
