Awesome place. It’s right on an ocean inlet so you have a constant breeze coming in. It was mostly shady all over the campground. Tonia and Will the camp hosts were super easy to get along with. You couldn’t have asked for nicer people. Tonia and my 5 year old son developed a unique bond while we were there that just warmed my heart. We were on a trip for his 5 birthday on the 4th of July.
Watching the tide come in and out at the kayak launch was pretty neat to see being from the mountains. My boys played with the fiddler crabs catching and letting them go. The campsites were very clean and maintained. They all have circular fire pits with grills, a good long picnic table and places to hang lanterns. Our site had a nice lil tent pad outlined with wood but we had brought a camper. The bugs weren’t too bad. Certain times of day these lil biting flies would be around. Bug spray helped. Tonia told us the more you swat the more aggressive they’ll get. It was a hard discipline to learn lol. It wasn’t all that bad really don’t let the inlet bugs deter you.
The south bound trailhead of the mountains-to-sea trail extends through the campground to the coast. It was kind of neat because it runs through our home town in western nc. My oldest son and I did a little bit of hiking on the trails. They were also well maintained.
The campground was 30 minutes from the beach stuff but only about 10 minutes from a bp gas station. The cell phone service was just fine and no different than being at home. They had bathrooms on each end of the grounds and a water spigot about every 3rd campsite. Bear proof trash cans also. Gates stay open from 6am to 10pm. I guess you could park outside the gate and walk in if you came in late.
All in all we had a great time and will definitely be going back to Oyster Point. I told Tonia they should rename the campground after their last name followed by island. When you meet them you will get a laugh at that.

We had a great time. The host was very pleasant and informative. Our picnic table was broken but we brought our own so it didn’t affect us. Bathrooms were the cleanest I have ever seen at a campsite. We will definitely be going again.

Great view of the river, camp host is awesome, close enough to the beach but still kinda remote, and quiet.
We stayed in early April and early May, no bugs in April, but in May the black flies and midges were relentless, bring spray and hope for wind off of the river.
We will return.

- 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.
