Good times. Struggled to get the hot showers to work, and the bathroom sink faucet was ridiculously corroded, but everything worked somewhat. It's rustic and plain as can be. It's also the only lodging in this historic and unique spot on the NC coast. The weather was mild. The scenery was awesome. We Will Return.

We stayed in a cabin at Great Island Cabin Camp and on the beach in a tent. Both experiences were unforgettable!
A word of caution RE the heat and the bugs, as both can ruin your trip. Just be prepared for a rustic experience and take everything you need, as there are no shops on the island, just the camp office, where you can buy ice.
We would like to express our appreciation to the fabulous volunteers, June and Debbie, who made our trip so much better! These guys went above and beyond the call of duty and we can't praise them enough! The staff was also friendly and helpful. We are grateful and hope to return soon.

Cabin beds were comfortable. Make sure you bring bug spray and some type of insecticide.

Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
Fires & fuel
- Guests should obtain firewood locally and burn it on-site to protect forests; transporting firewood is illegal in some states.
