The Best Camping Near Rodanthe, North Carolina

North Beach Campground is located behind a gas station and a small general store, that has everything you could possibly need! It is part hard ware store, part bait and tackle shop and has many beach and cooking items available.

The campsites are small sites, with picnic tables for each. There is a small pool with many permanent RV sites. A couple pull through RV sites are available, as well as grassy sites immediately behind the store, close to the laundry room. The bath house is located right off the beach, only steps from a beautiful, quiet, peaceful beach!

We were here in April, 2019 and the weather was fantastic! We had come on the heels of a strong wind/rain storm and sites were dry and the facilities were clean. Traditionally, this is not our style campground, but in a pinch, we would camp here again. Waking up on the ocean is priceless - and the sunsets in the Outer Banks were fantastic!

As a ranger for The Dyrt, I occasionally get to test products on our adventures. Our kiddos were able to try out their new Wenzel sleeping bags this week. They both enjoyed their sleeping bags quite a bit, staying nice and toasty in the evenings with 50 degree weather. They were warm, the kids said "soft and fluffy" and especially loved the mummy style, which was new for both of them.

After sleeping in these bags for a week, we are able to discuss 2 challenges that presented themselves. First of all, our 9 year old slept half in and half out one night and the next morning she could not zip back up the bag herself. The zipper is challenging to rezip after coming completely unzipped - and the material on the inside catches in the zipper. But yet, a challenge grown ups could easily take care of. Secondly, our 6 year old had an accident one night on/in his sleeping bag - which easily wiped up - and then washed out beautifully in a front load washer (NOT at this campground). I was pleased with the way the sleeping bag fared after being washed - which is not always the case! I would recommend these sleeping bags to anyone looking for a warmer sleeping bag for their kids. It is rated until 30 degrees and we look forward to trying them in colder weather!

Ranger Review - Wenzel sleeping bags, clean campsite close to the beach!

I'd stay somewhere else. Its not ideal for visitors, except that you may be able to park very close to the beach.

You'll get sand in your tent if you're in spot five or spot six.

Be careful coming here and accepting spot number 5 or 6 if you have a 2 wheel drive vehicle.

I gave this place 3 stars still because of how close you are to the water. If it was not for that feature I would give it only 1-2 stars.
