If you only camp once in your life, make it Cedar Island Ranch. Here, you can ride a horse along miles of undeveloped beach that hasn’t changed since long before the Spanish explorers set eyes on it. Rent kayaks, paddle boards or canoes, go fishing or have a romantic weekend on the beach. We’re open year-round for your vision of a family vacation paradise or a perfect honeymoon. We’re open year-round. Bring your home or stay in the comfort of our 2-bedroom Suites or beautifully renovated Motel Rooms. Most RV sites have ocean or bay views – 17 are directly on the bay water. Twelve pull-through sites directly face Cedar Island beach with fantastic views. Our RV park has 61 spaces with water plus 30- and 50-amp electric service. When the guests ask, we provide. So, we’ve got everything you need for an unequaled coastal experience right here. The Cedar Island Ferry terminal to Ocracoke Island and on to Cape Hatteras is right at our doorstep. You’ll have free Wi-Fi, clean bathroom facilities, and an enthusiastic, knowledgeable staff to help. Bring your boat. We have a private ramp and a state ramp into deep water and Atlantic access.

Waterfront Back-In FHU 50ft

Great location and facilities. We enjoyed our stay and wish we got a chance to ride the horses. I will note that it can be buggy so make sure to bring your bug spray!

Central Back-In W/E 50ft

Nice place. No picnic table other sites had two!! Poor dog on lease policy as our site was overrun several times by other people’s dogs. People beside us has a throw down party every night. Good for them but I was looking a quiet weekend.

Central Back-In W/E 50ft

Do not go! They are not dog friendly at all! Our spot didn’t have a picnic table they let others take it and the people beside us were so loud we could sleep at night and nothing was done

Highly recommend CIR!

Cedar Island Ranch was fantastic! Our stay was great, the location was absolutely gorgeous, our site was level, and the entire place was easily navigable with both truck and trailer. We were there for Memorial Day weekend, so the convenience store wasn't open for a bulk of our stay. CIR is a bit out of the way so make sure you stock up on essentials in Beaufort before heading up if you haven't done otherwise. We were in one of the pull through sites overlooking the beach. It was very windy our last full day so watching people try to get their tents up was quite the sight. If Ocracoke is your jam, the ferry terminal is a stone's throw from here. IMO it wasn't worth the ferry rides but if you're into it then you're good. We ventured to Harker's Island one night and highly recommend Seaside Galley for some of the best seafood we've ever had. The dog park was very spacious and it looks as if most everyone who had used it prior to us cleaned up after their dogs. Overall we highly recommend CIR to anyone looking for a gorgeous place to camp.
