Very nice campground. Very nice host. We enjoyed Oyster Point very much. Our site was number 1, and it has a beautiful view of the river and easy access to the trail for kayak launching. There is no electricity on the sites and water must be hauled from remote faucets but we enjoyed the primitive location. We camped twice in January and February of 2023 and enjoyed it very much.

Wonderful experience. The campground host - Tanya - was very engaging , helpful, and friendly. I can see a lot of landscaping has recently been done to enhance the riverside experience. Bathrooms are in tip top shape as are the campsites. Easy to get to. I highly recommend camping here. I used this as a base for hiking the Neusiok / Mountains to Sea Trails. Also close to Newport with its Shortway Brewery, Food Lion, and gas stations.

We've camped several times at Oyster Point and is always pleasant time - quiet and woodsy with nice views on Newport River. On our most recent trip in November 2022, it looks like a lot of the trees around the campsites had been thinned. The site was a little less private than before, we could see campers in adjacent sites. However, it opened up the view at night and there was a nearly full moon, so the open view was a bonus.

Always a good time there. Peace and quiet but close proximity to Morehead City, Beaufort, etc. Tonya (hope I spelled her name right) , the camp host, is always friendly and helpful.

Policies & Rules
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.
