Bathrooms and showers were clean .
The beach could have been nicer but too many trucks.
Felt like Dayton Beach.
If that’s what you’re looking for go to Frisco.

Recreation.gov is literally the most user friendly method I have ever used to book travel / camp plans. My favorite feature is the fact that they have linked a photo to each campsite! Of course how do you know which site to book online if you've never been there? You don't have to do a bunch of internet research or try to get a ranger on the phone during office hours. It was the easiest, most straightforward booking I have ever done. Everything worked exactly as stated and planned. Would recommend 10000%.

We had a great site on the Outer loop and could hear the ocean at night. The bath house and rest rooms were extremely clean and yes I would stay there again

My girlfriend and I LOVED it there. We were cross the road from bathroom and shower, had a GREAT time there, and the distance to get to Frisco Beach was AWESOME! If you have 4 Wheels Drive, get a off beach permit and just drive from the campground to the beach. It was so much fun. Will be coming back!

Nice campground and semi private spots. My main comment is PLEASE install hot showers. Use as a solar exercise pilot/progressive innovation to write a grant, whatever.
Also install solar showers at Ocracoke campground.

Super clean facilities. off the beaten path, not at all crowded. Had trouble getting ORV license, but that is a separate issue. Will definitely be back.

As a tent camper, I’ve been camping here for years and have always loved it. Especially among the Hatteras campgrounds because it offers more privacy than the other sites. However, this time it was less than excellent due to the cleanliness of the showers (it was gross), and the fact that quiet hours were not enforced during our stay. I wanted to mention something to the hosts, but every time I went by their sites, they were “off duty” seemingly the entire length of our stay.
