"My wife and I have stayed here probably 4 or 5 previous times. We always stay in the cabin because it has a bathroom and we don't have to walk to the bath house in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. It is a great priced campground and close to everything in Hatteras ya need. I always stay here for fishing trips out of hatteras marina. Will continue to stay here and I hope this place never sells out or ever closes because it's an amazing location. Also it's a super quiet area."
