Been a seasonal site camper here for 3 years, stunning views of the Pamlico sound, great access to the ocean, sound and NC 12. Great staff, bathhouses, laundry facilities, etc. Quiet campground and great reasonable rates. We love it and plan to be there long term! Great for windsurfing, kite boarding, paddle boarding!
LegendGreat location, very close to the beach. Staff was pleasant, and accomodations were nice. Some site are a bit close to a busy road, and you get road noise. But if you ask to be in the back of park, it is quiet. Paved roads and have premium sites that are paved, with concrete pads and beautiful furniture, along with cooking fire pit. Other pull thru sites are gravel and grass. Wifi was awesome. Best yet at campsite. Very clean. Would recommend this site
GuideGreat 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.
GuideWe have have spent many weekends here over the last few years and love it! We attended their Super Bowl event there, the crawfish bowl and many more. The personal are wonderful and have 0 issues with our sites or anything else there.

LegendOregon Inlet in Hatteras NSS, NC.:
Great beach and Kitty Hawk nearby.
We like this campground even though sites are pretty tight. We have been here later in November in the past. The weather was much cooler, but this campground is pretty empty then.
(Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good
(70 yr olds in 17’ trailer). I rate based on desire for at least a moderate wilderness type experience w at least some camp site privacy.
Overall Rating: 3.5
Price 2023: $ 14 w interagency pass for non electric sites
Usage during visit: 95% full.
Site Privacy: Not good
Site Spacing: Sites along the dunes are pretty close.
Site surface: Blacktop
Reservations: Required
Campground Noise: Quiet
Road Noise: Noticeable throughout B and C loops. I’ll leave Loop A to be evaluated by tent campers. Homey, I will say to choose a site away from Hwy 12.
Through Traffic in campground: None
Electric Hookup: Some sites. See my map in pictures
Sewer Hookup: No
Dump Station: Yes. It is across the highway to the south of the campground.
Potable Water Available: At the dump station and near the restrooms.
Generators: Allowed.
Bathroom: Clean flush toilets.
Showers: Yes, but a gap between the roof and walls makes for a cold experience this time of year with the wind.
Pull Throughs: No
Cell Service (AT&T): 2 to 3 bars.
Setting: A pretty area between Highway 12 and the dunes.
Weather: Highs in upper 60s. Lows are in mid 50s
Bugs: A couple mosquitoes. Wind has probably kept them at bay.
Solar: Great when not too cloudy.
Host: They are super.
Rig size: Large rigs can fit in many spots.
Sites: See my map in my attached pictures: Circled sites B2 - 20 back right up to the dunes. C1 -21 have a broader view of the beautiful dunes with 5 - 21 in this group a bit larger sites. B 22 and24 are getting closer to the dunes. I like all these sites in comparison to the others. However, I appreciate being backed right up to the dunes. Site B4 is the best site, in my opinion. Rig size is limited for this site. It’s not deep, Punic table is near campground road, but isolated from B2 on the picnic side by a dune . B2 is a good site. Picnic area is private from adjacent site, but not from vehicles driving by.
