P52 NOT good for a travel trailer or any RV as the shrubs have been allowed to grow up against the parking pad & entrance in/out of vehicles is compromised on the entire passenger side of the vehicle. Tree at rear passenger side of parking pad is an impediment that can damage the trailer.

Very clean bathrooms and easy check-in, made this experience perfect. The weather was lovely which made it possible to spend the whole day at the beach. There are several good restaurants, a grocery store, shops, art galleries, and two museums nearby in case the weather is less than a stellar beach day. Fishing at the ocean or on the sound is also a popular option along with kayaking, or a ferry trip to Ocracoke island. If you love camping whether you tent or rv , you will love this national campground.

The site exceeded our expectations! The location being next to the beach on ramp was ideal for us.

This the best campground on the Outer Banks. Most sites have some shade. The trees bushes and dunes help make each site seem more private. There's boardwalks out to the beach, beautiful sunrises and sunsets, and plenty to do nearby if you want to find a restaurant, a grocery store, or do some shopping. We try to come every year and always have a great time.

Still a nice place. We were lucky that nobody used a generator close to us. In fact, the only person using a generator used super-silent one that we could barely hear.
Cellphone data is very hard get at that location, we had to stand on a table at the higher point, so it is very hard to get a campsite since there is no staff. I wished some of the unreserved site would become walk-in site at some time in the night so we could simply take them and pay the park ranger the next morning.

The campsite did not have a tent area and was poorly maintained if at all. There was a small flat scruggy area but it was a low ground drainage ditch too small for even a 2 person tent and covered with cactus. The table was pushed in between overgrown junipers with no space to sit down and a snake crawling around. The table was too large and heavy for one person to drag out to an area large enough to sit at.
Camping was a real problem at this. I want a full refund. Please update the camp site details to RV only or send a crew to cut the brush.
