This is an excellent beach camping spot! Campsites are private, bathrooms are clean, and the beach is beautiful. The campground maintains the natural beauty of the outer banks. With that comes a few mosquitos and sand spurs. Be sure to bring your bug repellent and wear shoes in the grassy areas. If you have a 4 wheel derive vehicle you can get a permit to drive right onto the beach. If not, there is a lovely walkway that will take you there. This walkway is also the end of the NC Mountains to Sea Trail.

I love this campground, but I wish there was a bit of beach with no truck access. The bathrooms were really clean and the night sky program was great! We had a wonderful time!!

The campground was beautifully laid out with paved roads and paved RV parking. The restrooms were clean but with the constant open door there was always a lot of mosquitos in the restroom. The campsites were well spaced from each other offering decent privacy and greenery. The beach was absolutely beautiful. It is very wide and has very soft sand (no hard shells to walk on). Vehicles could get a permit and drive on the beach as well. Such a beautiful place. We will be sure and return. Although there is no RV dump within this campsite, there is one not very far away (see Ranger station for directions).

Recommend the Tavern on 12 for lunch or dinner. Located right before the turn in to the campground on the right.

Really enjoyed the trees and vegiatation coverage so our campsite was not totally out in the sun. It was quiet and so close to the beach.

We love this campground! It is a long walk to the beach though. So we went down to the beach near the old lighthouse site at Hatteras, just a short walk from the parking lot!

Cozy campsites with some shade in some, so select carefully. Easy walk to the beach with warm beautiful water and nice sandy beach.
