Campsite 11 had everything we wanted. It’s super close to the water pump and has water access to the large bay. We enjoyed the shade from the trees. It was wonderful to see the crabs crawling around their homes in the morning. There is no running water in the bathroom and the portapotty near #16 had a smell. But #11 was nicely secluded away from that smell as well as viewing from most other sites. It was also a 20-30 min drive to the beach which was perfect!

We used this for an overnight stay waiting for the ferry to Cape Lookout. For a campground on the water, it has no visibility to the water without walking a trail to the river bank. This place could be much better with a little underbrushing, which would help with airflow and reduce flies. No plans to return.

We had a very fun time camping at Oyster Point Campground. The bugs were the only problem. Seems like bug spray doesn’t keep them away but overall the camp was enjoyable. The fire pit was a bit worn out. But we plan to camp there again.

Our Boy Scout Troop had a wonderful time over the weekend. Mrs. Tonia Gillikin is one of the nicest people you could ever meet. She made sure we were squared away when we arrived and checked in on us through out our stay to make sure everything was ok. We will be coming back for future camping trips.

It was a beautiful campground with large private sites. Campground host was very friendly and helpful. Bathrooms were clean. Quiet and relaxing -- great place if you like to camp with nature.

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.
