Best RV Parks & Resorts near Nags Head, NC

RV camping facilities in the Outer Banks area include several options for motorhome travelers. Oregon Inlet Campground in Cape Hatteras National Seashore provides both primitive and electric sites, with concrete pads and good spacing between sites in the dune-side loops. Camp Hatteras RV Resort offers full hookup sites on both the sound and ocean sides of Highway 12, with 50-amp service and concrete pads. "Sites are very close together with picnic tables, but no fire rings are provided—if you wish to have a fire, it's BYO ring which must be up off the ground," noted one camper about Camp Hatteras. OBX Campground in Kill Devil Hills features full hookup sites with gravel pads and picnic tables, including premium waterfront sites along a coastal waterway that accommodate large rigs.

Most Outer Banks RV parks are seasonal, with many operating from March through November. During peak summer months, advance reservations are essential as oceanfront locations fill quickly. Cape Hatteras/Outer Banks KOA Resort provides cable TV and WiFi access, though several visitors report connectivity issues throughout the region, with AT&T coverage ranging from 2-4 bars at most locations. Dump stations are limited in the area—Oregon Inlet's facility is located across Highway 12 from the main campground, while other parks offer full sewer hookups at individual sites. Pet policies vary by location, with most campgrounds allowing dogs but implementing leash requirements and sometimes charging additional pet fees. Wind exposure is a notable consideration for RV campers in this coastal region, potentially affecting awnings and outdoor setups.

    Hatteras Sands Campground

    Hatteras Sands is amazing!!!

    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!

    Hatteras Sands Campground

    End of the Road Summer Fun

    Open:  April - December

    Sites: 85 with 24 pull thrus

    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 Campground

    Most Are Permanently Occupied

    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. Overall Rating: 2 Usage during visit: Full w what looks like permanent trailers Site Privacy: None Site Spacing: Super close Site surface: Gras Road Noise: Not really Through Traffic in campground: No Electric Hookup: Yes Sewer Hookup: Yes Dump Station: No Potable Water Available: Yes Bathroom: Yes Showers: Yes Pull Throughs: No Cell Service (AT&T): 4 bars Setting: Open . Not a pretty setting. Weather: high 60s and low 50s. Bugs: not this time of year. Solar: great. Rig size: large fifth wheels are here.

    Frisco Campground — Cape Hatteras National Seashore

    Best in Hatteras NSS

    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!
    Beach Access: boardwalk P1 and P 29: Price 2023: $14 w interagency pass Usage during visit: Light Site Privacy: Some great sites Site Spacing: Good Site surface: Blacktop. Our site was pretty level. Reservations: Required. Campground Noise: Quiet as can be.
    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 . Electric Hookup: No Sewer Hookup: Yes Dump Station: No. We will use the dump station at Oregon Inlet when we drive out of the Outer Banks. Potable Water Available: Yes. At restrooms. Generators: Allowed.
    Bathroom: Clean. Flush Toilets. Showers: Cold water and breezy. Pull Throughs: A couple. Cell Service (AT&T): 1 to 2 bars. Setting: Dense low shrubs between sites. Weather: Sunny and cloudy days. Highs are low to upper 60s. Always some wind. Lows are in the 50s Bugs: Not this time of year Solar: Great when sunny. Host: I don’t believe there was one furing our stay - late in the season. Rig size: Large rigs okay in selected sites. Sites: P6 is cozy little sight, no view, but the picnic table is in a cozy little very shaded area. Ideal for warmer weather - tables in SHADED/PRIVATE picnic area: P8, P10, P40, to a lesser degree-D4, D5 , F1 PRIVACY: A2, A3,A4(picnic table and grill down a short hill from site.) A6 D2, P46, P48,P49,P50, P55,P56 through P62 even, P9(picnic table, a few yards from trailer site.) P17, P65, P67, P69, P71, P22, P24, B1, B5, B7, B4, B6, P26, P28, P26, P30, VIEW of distant ocean: P66, P57, P51( our delightful sight - splendid view), P61(a peak of a view- less privacy), P73(pull over site, no privacy- great view of ocean.), P67(very splendid view of dunes, not ocean)
