1 acre hosted by Nc Saltwater Vacations L.
Bring your RV (or tent) to the coast! We offer one 30 amp, full hook-up (water, electric, sewer) campsite on a third of an acre.
Nestled alongside our home in Morehead City (6 miles from Atlantic Beach), the Coastal Tiki Hideaway Campsite #1 is your PET-FRIENDLY camping retreat just minutes from Morehead City’s waterfront, historic Beaufort, Atlantic Beach, Pine Knoll Shores, Croatan National Forest, and Cape Lookout Lighthouse and National Seashore.
After spending the day at the beach or exploring the area, come back to your Coastal Tiki Hideaway to relax in the hammock, grill out, eat at the picnic tables under the expansive branches of our 30' magnolia tree, and gather ‘round the campfire to enjoy some s’mores.
--AMENITIES--
The community space includes a charcoal grill, fire pit, picnic tables, Adirondack chairs, hammock, wooden bench swing, fishing kayaks, outdoor sink and countertop, and space for boat trailer parking.
We offer firewood for purchase onsite through a cash, self-pay, honor system. You’ll see our son’s homemade firewood set-up complete with a hand-painted sign ‘Leo’s Tiki Shop, Firewood 4 Sale.’ Help support a kiddo’s local business. :-)
The two fishing kayaks are complimentary and included in your stay at the Coastal Tiki Hideaway. The kayak racks are located on the fence at the front of the property. There’s a life jacket and a whistle with each kayak, as you will need to have those on board per Coast Guard regulations.
--LOCATION--
Conveniently located yet tucked away! The Coastal Tiki Hideaway is located in the Morehead City/Newport area at the NC Crystal Coast, NC's Southern Outer Banks.

--CAMPSITE #1--
Campsite #1 is located in the middle of the lot to the LEFT of the palm tree, between the palm tree and the outdoor sink. The hook-ups are on the palm tree side, so for an RV, you'll most likely find yourself backing into the space and then pulling out when you leave. (The campsite to the RIGHT of the palm tree now has a permanent camper that we rent out separately as a vacation rental, so it is no longer for rent as just a standalone campsite.)
If you are tent camping, then you are welcome to pitch your tent on the grassy strip or on the gravel. We offer a porta potty and an outdoor sink and countertop area but not a shower. During the summer, Fort Macon State Park offers indoor showers for a small fee.
--PARKING--
Our RV site recommended max length is 50 ft. This includes your rig and your tow vehicle. If you need parking for a second vehicle, one additional vehicle parking space can be made available for $25. Space is limited. Upon booking, please let us know if this is something that you will need.
--PET POLICY--
Pets are welcomed! Certain pet breeds are restricted, such as Pit Bull, Doberman Pinscher, Rottweiler, and German Shepherd; however, if the pet owner can provide assurance in writing of the good nature of their pet, then that would be a way to allow a pet on the restricted breeds list. Pets must be kept on a leash at all times, and please clean up after your pet.
Note: We carry insurance for our business, of course, and these are the pet-policy guidelines given by our insurance carrier. If you have any questions, please feel free to message us as we would love to answer them.
--WIFI--
We are a small, family-owned operation. At the current moment, we are not offering wifi.
--COMMUNICATION--
Your CAREFREE beach vacation is our TOP PRIORITY! If for any reason you need anything during your stay, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We are local, professional hosts, and we want you to love this space and this area as much as we do!
