Wife loved the easy beach access
She would grab a cup of coffee and just go wander the beach. Easy access and large lots. We stayed in the blue area I think. One street off the beach access.
Edit for the owner: The reason I left it at 4 stars was the fact that we were there in March or April and the cost was almost equal to what it would be to rent a 3 bedroom 2 bath house in the same area. We camp in many areas and these are some of the highest prices we see so we go other places in the off season. We enjoy the park but the cost is a concern.

Had the best time with my family and two dogs. The staff was super nice and helped us at the front desk at any time. The pool was clean and not too overcrowded. The bathrooms located throughout the campground were also super clean. The beach was great as well. We could hear it from our campsite and had a nice breeze at all times. Campsite was big and hook ups were easy to access. Around the campground are great places to eat( like Neptunes) and entertain yourselves. All of the other people around us were friendly. The campground had daily activities throughout the week like bingo, ice cream social, tie dye, and even a corn hole tournament. You can stay on either the ocean side or sound side. The ocean side is more of a faster moving side, while the sound side faces the Pamlico bay where you can watch the most amazing sunsets ever. This is a great place if you have a tent, travel trailer, fifth wheel, or a motorhome. Or if you are staying for a few days or a few weeks.

Visited for fall break only to find out everything in the area was closed for the season and the campground was nearly empty with limited hours for amenities. Seasonal hours should be posted on website as it affects the enjoyment of the stay greatly. Staff was friendly and helpful. . Sites were fine. What we expected for hundreds of sites together. Never could get their WiFi or cable to work. Overall location was uneventful. The sites themselves were located close to beach and bay. However, all stores and restaurants in the vicinity were closed. We traveled 30+ minutes for restaurants and entertainment. Overall a very strange experience as we literally felt as if we were the only ones around.

We traveled with a group of 4 couples. Two in Class A's one in a Class C and a bumper pull. The staff got us into a great location that allowed us to set up a nice place to enjoy. Was breezy which was nice and only issue last day was a few bugs. Beach was easy to reach and nice. Outdoor pool was perfect and great place to meet other and have a nice conversation. Golf Cart rental right down the street. Lots of day trips to the Hatteras island via ferry...very nice and lots of places to eat within a short distance.

Overall, it was an "ok" place to stay. Nice to be close to the beach, easy access. Sunset view over the Sound is pretty.
Laundry facilities were clean. The clubhouse was clean & nice with a pool & a hot tub. The park itself is nothing special to look at.

We will not come back to Camp Hatteras. The dealbreaker is how our friends were treated. We arrived 2 days before they did. We did not reserve a specific site number but we did pay for a site in the "premium" section, closest to the beach. When our friends arrived, they asked for a site in or near our section only to be told that they should have prepaid a $25 upcharge for a specified site if they wanted to be near us. We didn't know where the campground was going to put us - they don't give you a site number with your reservation. The employee could have EASILY accommodated our friends' request as there were MANY sites in our section available the entirety of our stay and they paid for a "premium" campsite just like we did.
Our friends arrived 25 minutes ahead of 1pm check in, after driving 6 hours, they were turned away. Not even allowed to sit in the EMPTY parking lot for 25 minutes - that is just plain rude. There were SO many sites available. I understand "it is policy" but in all our travels, we have NEVER been turned away from a slightly early arrival. It would have been understandable if the campground was at capacity or busy with other arrivals but that was absolutely not the case. Disappointing. Policy should not outweigh treating your customers with kindness. I do not recommend Camp Hatteras. There are a lot of better choices for my money.
