Cedar Hammock Campground sits along the quiet shores of Waves, where the sound of the ocean blends with the rustle of live oaks. Whether you arrive with a tent, an RV, or a sense of wanderlust, this is your ground to make memories on the Outer Banks.
Nestled along NC Highway 12 in the quiet community of Waves, Cedar Hammock Campground has been a haven for travelers seeking the authentic Outer Banks experience — without the crowds.
What began as a small family retreat has grown into one of the most trusted campgrounds in the area, known for its shaded sites, clean facilities, and the kind of hospitality that makes strangers feel like neighbors. We sit between the sound and the sea, giving you easy access to beach days and marsh-side sunsets without sacrificing the peace of a wooded setting.
From tent camping under the stars to full-hookup RV pads, we have a site that fits the way you travel.
