Oregon Inlet Campground is praised for its beautiful location and proximity to the beach, with clean facilities and friendly staff. Many visitors enjoyed the hot showers and overall cleanliness of the campground. However, some noted issues with small, closely spaced campsites, biting insects, and occasional flooding, particularly after heavy rain.

The location of the campground is great. It's close to these restaurants, stores at Nags Head. And it is right besides the dunes. It took us 3-5 mins walk to the beach. The beach is very beautiful and shallow. Water is very clear at the time we were there.
I rate it 4 star not 5 because of the burrs. They are everywhere and not able to control. It stick through our tent and flow with winds . My dogs are victims too. Recommend wear shoes all the time and also put them on for your dogs.
Sand flies, mosquitos are also problems. Definitely need to apply the repellent on every inch of your skin. And my dog's belly was bite very bad... Don't forget to apply dog safe repellent for them.
I may book again but not in August/September.

Campsite facilities were great. Appreciated the showers! You can hear the highway thorough out the day and at night. Be prepared for full exposure.

The beach is our favorite place to be so for this fact alone we enjoyed our stay. There are a couple of things to keep in mind…not negatives to all but definitely worth being aware of. First it is a long way through very soft sand to get to the water! Second - you may not experience this but we were constantly bothered by pesky biting flies whenever we stepped out of the camper….even on the beach! I don’t recall this happening anywhere else all along the outer banks except here? Other than that we had a great time.

Fist night was a little noisy, but not after 10 PM. Camp site 18 was close to the bathroom, plus for me. Hike over to the beach was little longer than expected. Grass certainly needed to be cut. Showers and bathrooms both were clean and loved that hot water! I usually stay at cape point and that is quite the shower experience. Never saw who was overlooking the place. My tag was already on the post when I arrived, and I had no need to see anyone. Overall it was a good experience.
