Did not like the fact that there are cockroaches. Talked to the gentleman at the front desk advising we were checking out early due to the cockroaches. He said they spend thousands of dollars every year but can not get rod of all of them. Also when we got there i tries to rent linens since they advertised on their website they have them for rent. We was able to get sheets, toewels and wash clothes but they did not have blankets. We had to go to the dollar store to buy blankets. Over all would not stay there again. They do not offer any type of refunds. I did purchase travel ins so hopefully i get some money back since i paid for to stay from Saturday to Saturday and left of tuesday. I had 2 people traveling with me that have been allgery tested and tested positive for allergy to cockroaches.

This was our second stay at Hatteras Sands and I cannot praise this group enough. The cabins are camping cabins, no luxury cabins but comfortable none the less! We had an incredible experience from start to finish. Cassandra (I’m so sorry if I messed up your name!) was at the desk whenever we checked in, right as the car we were driving was breaking down. We had driven 420+ miles to get to Hatteras Village and I was nearly hysterical about being stranded. She went above and beyond to ensure I felt safe, secure and do my best to enjoy our vacation. The campground is well maintained and the community cannot be matched. If you stay, you’ve got to try Harbor House Seafood (shrimp boil!) and Dancing Turtle Coffee shop. The campground is within walking distance to the major attractions at Hatteras Village, so while we were unable to drive our car, we still could enjoy the OBX. Thank you all again!

The staff were AWESOME! Camp was Clean! 1 We were supplied with 2 trash can liners can, Main & bathroom, we had to empty trash often(ants) Staff would have given more but we didn't ask, used our own sacks to run up to the dumpster a few times a day. 2. ANTS - I understand they are an issue, however it needs to be post or in the information. You CAN NOT leave anything in the room that ants can get into. Not even toothpaste. The ants got into everything. Our closed cooler couldnt even keep them out. Please note these cabins are SMALL! would be great for 2 people but not 3 or 4! However, Its very close to everything, very convient. NOTE: YOU MUST BRING YOUR OWN BEDDING, TOWELS, WASHCLOTHS, FLOOR MATS ECT. Nothing is offered, except 2 pillows. There is TP!! There are 3 plugs in the cabbins, bring USB extention cords for charging. There are cute little front porches so don't forget your chairs, like I did. But if you do the local Ace Hardware has some for sale! Also, the park only give 1 key for the cabin, so if you and your guest want to split off there are not the tridional key cards like at hotels, you will receive 1 dead bolt key. Parking is a bit tight esp. for BIG trucks. Each cabin has porch lights, when turned on they light up your cabin all night. If you like it dark bring a sleeping mask.
