I wish they could find a better way so that I can just go to the lot and jump into a car. Bringing it back was horrible... I couldn't find the rental car lot. I just winged it and eventually ended up at the rental car return. I mentioned to the guy checking me in that the signage was horrible and he agreed. I get that there's construction going on, but if he even knows there's a problem, they should fix it! Put up some temporary signage to help out. The car was OK, but I really can't stand driving a Jeep Wrangler. I didn't know what I got until I got outside. If this were Emerald Isle, I could have picked what I wanted.

I am very disappointed with my experience, and I haven't even arrived for my stay yet…read more Since June, I repeatedly called the reservation number that was provided to me, but every call was disconnected. Then, after the death of a family member, making my reservation and purchasing my Fast Pass understandably slipped my mind. When I began calling again, I continued to experience the same issue with the reservation line, making it impossible to complete my purchase before the 14-day discounted pricing deadline. I eventually went to the website and submitted a message, which resulted in being given two additional phone numbers. I called one of those numbers, and someone answered immediately. I wish I had gotten the representative's name because I was trying to purchase my Fast Pass. Unfortunately, because my reservation was now only 12 days away instead of 14, the price had increased from $12 per day to $15 per day. My primary reason for calling was that one of our vehicles would not be on the property for the entire stay, and I did not want to pay for days it would not be used. I will admit that I was very upset and not as pleasant as I normally would have been. After months of trying to reach the reservation line, dealing with the loss of a family member, and then learning I had to pay more because I had been unable to get through sooner, my frustration got the best of me. What pushed me over the edge was being told, "Well, you could have called in June when the reservation was sent." I did. Even so, I do not believe hanging up on a customer is ever an appropriate way to handle a situation. Every customer deserves to be treated with courtesy and respect, even during a difficult conversation. I had not visited Ocean Lakes for several years because of previous issues, including having items stolen while staying on the property. I decided to give it another chance, hoping things had improved. Unfortunately, this experience has convinced me that after this stay, I will not be returning. It does not matter whether a business is family-owned or corporate-owned--no customer should ever be treated this way. Good customer service means listening, showing respect, and making a genuine effort to resolve concerns. A good rule to live by is to treat every customer the way you would want your own grandparents to be treated. If that level of care and respect is not being shown, then something needs to change. Sadly, Ocean Lakes is not what it used to be. It now seems to be more focused on maximizing revenue than providing the family-friendly atmosphere and caring customer service that once made it such a special place. I hope this feedback is taken seriously so that future guests do not have a similar experience. While I cannot change what happened, I believe there is an opportunity for Ocean Lakes to improve its communication, customer service, and reservation process.

Friends in the golf cart parade!!

It has one of the best designed traffic flows I have seen. You drive to the back, find your row, take a left and pull into your slot. Look on their web site if this doesn't make sense. It's super easy. Every site is a very flat concrete pad with plenty of room. All roads are asphalt and are in perfect condition. It's the easiest place to get into and out of that I have seen. They have all the expected connections at every site. No cable, but there are more than two dozen channels available via antenna. They pick up your trash. Super nice pool. Golf carts for rent. Places for kids and dogs. The grass is very nicely maintained. The place is secure with a real gate that they give you a card to open. Everything here is first rate. The staff was super nice. We got an Amazon delivery but we're off at Bald Head Island near closing time they called us about it and we said just leave it by the door... someone took the time to bring it to our site! While you are there, definitely take the ferry out to Bald Head Island. It's not far. I definitely recommend this place and honestly will say that it deserves more than five stars.

It seems that the owners of this place has done what North Carolina has become so famous for. It's called the nickel and dime shuffle. Plan on being charged a service fee when you get here. 10.00 processing fee for most transactions you make. You would think that with all the extra fees they charge your site wouldn't flood, one heavy rain and you'er are in a Sneads Ferry lake. On to the three stars. The site isn't secured. people drive through the camp ground all night long. the Boat ramp is suppose to be private but it's not. Charter boat captains use and abuse the boat ramp at an astonishing rate. On Holidays locals use the( AKA Private) boat ramp which means they come through the camp ground. The Air B&B is another practice some were uncomfortable with. Temporary people passing in an out of the area on a nightly bases is unsettling.
