White Oak Shores Campground sits along North Carolina's pristine Crystal Coast. Surrounded by the tranquil, flowing waters of White Oak River and set amongst coastal marshes, this RV resort offers guests peaceful surroundings and a perfect 'base camp' for exploring the many attractions of this beautiful area!
Let's start with the negatives : 1) The laundry is coin operated and if you don't have quarters the store does have them you just have to go during open hours ; 2) RV sites are on grass which is no real issue or negative except when it rains and it turns slick or muddy. That's it now on to the positives : This park is SOOOO well kept it is like a still picture. Roads are smooth, the showers/restrooms are cleaned several time a day with plenty of hot water, the store is stocked with plenty of convivence items on hand. Swansboro the next major town is just minutes away and had all your major stores for your needs. This place is truly amazing and well worth the stay. WE WILL BE BACK !

We can't wait to return. It was beautiful, not overcrowded, and an absolute pleasure. We were happy to wake up every morning with a view of the river, spend the day in the pool, and have a little cook out in the evenings. All that's needed is a sewer system or way to empty the camper tanks, and I'm sure that will be part of the ongoing expansion. Very nice staff as well!

We are Thousand Trails members, who stayed at White Oak Shores in a 35' fifth wheel. Originally, we were assigned a site in the rally field (electric and water). The day before our arrival, the staff called and offered us a full-hookup site in the new section. This change was greatly appreciated. The sites are large and the interior roads in the new section are wide making it very easy to back in. Additionally, the temperatures were pretty low and we needed propane filled. The cost was very reasonable in the park for propane. We look forward to returning.

First time going to the RV park. We got an amazing lot looking over the water with some beautiful sunsets and the staff was absolutely awesome. From the front desk to the maintenance people they went out of their way to ensure that we have everything we needed, and we’re extremely friendly. We would love to visit again in the near future.

This resort campground, in my opinion, is one of the best ever! Check was a breeze. Plenty of room to maneuver a large RV to your site. Everything is well maintained. Roads, sites, hookups, garbage bins, restroom/showers, laundry room, pool, pier, entrance, office/store...GREAT! There is a pretty much constant breeze blowing that can get a little gusty at times, but not bad. The number one thing that impressed me was the campsites's grass/ground. I am not sure what kind of grass this is, but it is like a soft carpet on your feet and really no need for rugs/mats. You pretty much track nothing into your RV that needs to be cleaned up. I LOVE THAT! They maintain it so well that twice a week, IF you lay down a mat/rug, they require you to take it up to give the grass a chance to revive being covered. You will enjoy your stay at this place. Oh, and ice and propane is available on site. And, if you choose a site without hookup for sewer, they invite you to avail yourself of designated empty sites with the hookup (which are very convenient to use) to use to pull in long enough to empty your tanks (and don't leave a mess).

One of the nicest campgrounds I have been to in Thousand Trails. I would live her but hubby says no. Internet on my phone had 3-4 bars, had cable, lot very clean, worker are very polite, & the grounds kept spotless. Got nothing bad to say. It does sadden me to hear some bad reviews about this place having nothing to do especially for kids. Did they miss the pool with a slide or the playground. I don't want to sound bold but if you were looking for someone to entertain and look after your children you should have brought a babysitter with you. People are here to relax, meet new people, explore the area, and enjoy nature. Enough of that....we are having a blast and can't wait to come back.

We really enjoyed our stay. The camp sites are large and well maintained. The dog park was large and broken into 2 sections so the dogs didn't have to be in there together.Several unenclosed areas where dogs could be walked with doggie bags available. Would highly reccommend.

Spring break family RV trip and this resort didn’t disappoint. Being from south Florida the weather was much colder than we anticipated and it was great kite flying weather. It has several very convenient common areas to walk the puppies, including a dog park. The dock is beautiful on the river. We cannot wait to return for summer to enjoy everything this resort has to offer. On our last day met some YouTube celebrities along with some great kids that live there full time that my son is now friends with. Great place to take your family and enjoy outdoor time. The staff go out of their way to enhance your experience and stay. Lots are large & grass. No issues with power, water, sewer.

I just want to write about an individual employee named Michael. My car tire went flat during the trip, and this employee went above and beyond to help me get a new tire. It wasn’t his job - but he did it all anyways while maintaining such an approachable, friendly, and helpful manner. His professionalism and willingness to help was unquestionable.
With such a valuable asset like him, you can be certain you are in good hands while you stay here!
