Staff was very nice and the general location was great. The sites were not big enough for our 40' Class A. The dog wouldn't leave the RV because the prickers/burs were so bad.

I have camped all over the country and this remains one of my favorite campgrounds. The simplicity, cleanliness of facilities, and of course the views/access to the beach are top notch. I have not stayed in peak times where it could feel crowded, however on the side seasons it is perfection.

Best natural campground on all the Outer Banks! Unexpectedly rolling hills with lots of privacy between sites. Only issue was the grass with burrs all over that got in the paws of our dog. Loved the place and will return often.

Great campground with lots of spacious and private sites. Sand burrs were intense so watch where you walk. Distance to beach was a pleasant 1/4 mile walk at most. Gorgeous beach. Pay attention to gale warnings!

Beautiful Beach, “UFO” to visit for fun photos. Pop”s restaurant is the place to enjoy good food and just relax, The campsite my husband and I reserved was quiet and secluded. My only wish is to be able to have a campfire on site. We have made a fire on the beach before which is nice, but my preference is a campsite fire!. Get out and enjoy the great outdoors at Billy Mitchell’s Campground!

Very nice campground. Loved the rolling hills and the vegetation that created a lot of natural privacy between sites. Very convenient to the beach, town and attractions. It would be nice if this campground had a dump station or at least one nearby. Thankfully we arrived with full water and empty gray and black tanks. We would definitely stay here again
