Great Island Cabin Camp

It is always a great experience visiting the Cape Lookout National Seashore Cabins. Great and wonderful forestry service personnel there. They always are very attentive to answer or help with anything you might ask or need. We went for the week in March, we usually go in August so we tried something different and as always such a wonderful trip that was much needed. Cabins always clean and nice, great spot. Will never go anywhere else. Thank You

This was the first time I have rented the cabins and actually have scheduled renting two ore times this year.
From the moment we got off the ferry, The park ranger, (with his BLUE LIGHTS BLAZING) was harassing anyone he could. he was even blocking the trails with his blazer harassing people as they were coming up to their cottage.
Often he was driving at very high rat of speed down the beach causing safety concerns to those fishing and when we asked others staying on the beach, this same officer was checking their fishing licenses "EVETRY DAY". when he knew they were legal.
When we pulled up to our cabin, there was a built (dug out) fire pit far away from the cabin, dunes and near the beach. So we assumed it was our designate place for a modest fire. so we did. That night a park volunteer came by and inspected out fire. he said it was in a good location and wished us good night. GREAT !!
Well no, next morning, no fire burning, Barney Fife came up to our cabin, (BLUE LIGHTS BKAZING) telling me we had an illegal fire. I explained what the volunteer told us and he said the volunteer expressed that he told us to move it. (THIS IS A LIE).
So this way over zealous poor example of an officer was all to egger to write me a $130.00 dollar ticket. (FINE !) I wished him well, be safe now leave us alone.
Later that day, 15 miles down the beach, Barney Fife , (BLUE LIGHTS BLAZING) again checking the same guys licenses while fishing.
My son was driving his truck (slowly) I in my jeep. My son took a wide turn on beach to come around "door to door" to talk to me and OMG ,,, Barney fife came racing up, (BLUE LIGHTS BLAZING) accusing my son of doing doughnuts on the beach.

In all sincerity, This guy has issues and SHOULD NOT have access to the public. He's obviously a power driven individual with an authority complex. this is a public beach and I saw no one BUT HIM being dangerous and equally concerning is no one could enjoy nature, the beach, God's creation.

Park ranger at office very friendly and helpful. The volunteer checking for passes also very helpful. No hassles at all. Cabin as always was clean. No issues with cabin. Might suggest that the key drop off be reworked to accommodate the new key cards.

If you don't like the crowds, this is your place!

Best place in the world! Peace like no other! Fishing never disappoints!
