About Cedar Point Campground

Cedar Point Campground and Recreation Area is located in eastern North Carolina at the junction of the White Oak River and the Bogue Sound, immediately adjacent to the Swansboro Inlet. It is within 1 mi of full service shopping, and within 2 mi of NC's Crystal Coast and the barrier island beach community of Bogue Banks. The campground is extremely busy and reservations are recommended but must be made 3 days in advance. Of the 36 campsites, 4 are considered first-come, first served campsites that cannot be reserved or held, so a person must physically be there with their camping equipment to purchase the campsite. Cedar Point campground has the option to use Scan & Pay system, but by the rules of recreation.gov it may only be used for first-come, first served sites. Please make sure to contact a campground host to ensure availability before paying for any campsite. Failure to check with the campground host for availability may result in the loss of your camping fee.

The host staff are Fabulous, 5 stars!
However the facility itself is so need of work.
Doors on showers/toilets are way past use.
The host staff does NOT have simple tools/equipment to maintain the facility. Some sort of cart buggy 4by4 gator to use to load debris or to disperse travels etc.
And most important the power pedestals and electric power to RV's should be inspected. I had site 4 that had 111 volts one leg and 130 volts the other. My RV would could not use this voltage issue. 130 volts can be a safty issue. 111 volts will NOT run equipment, AC nor heater. Site 11 has issues. TIME TO UP GRADE THE POWER OUTPUTS! PERIOD.
Luckily for me I was able to move otherwise I could not get refund(didn't want refund if I could even get it, I wanted to camp!) Again thumbs up to the Hosts for there help.
Get those folks some transportation and items to upkeep the grounds.
Great place!

The campground is usually quiet and peaceful. Very close to many restaurants and shopping. Both Swansboro and Emerald Isle are wonderful. Swansboro for shopping / restaurants and Emerald Isle for beach and other activities. Boating, fishing, kayaking are popular in the area. This facility however has started to neglect maintenance on their bathroom and shower facilities. Leaky toilets, no lock on shower door, metal rusted and sticking out on shower door and cleanliness. The camp host are very nice nice and helpful but repairs are NOT their job.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
