A great park. Caution concerning over-zealous park ranger. Doesn’t matter if you are obeying all the laws—this one was keen on being dominate.

Great beach! The cabin was OK but will soon need maintenance if it is to continue standing. The staff did not help us move our gear between the dock and cabin as they had in previous years.

Great Island Cabins were great! However, the website for recreation.gov leaves a lot of room for improvement. The creator of that website should try and make reservations at the cabins and should try to purchase the new necessary $25.00 off road vehicle pass.

It’s very disheartening to see the cabins in such a state of disrepair. We’ve been coming here for 15 years and since the Park service took over managing the cabin they have really let them just go I understand there was a hurricane last year but the repairs they made were inexcusable. Checking in with the park rangers upon arriving to the island was a less than desirable experience. They really made us feel unwelcome and it left us with the feeling that the Park service doesn’t really want people visiting the island anymore. I understand it’s the national seashore which we want to maintain so the generations from now can enjoy it but why doesn’t the Park service offer little ranger talks to explain some of the safety measures that they’re taking to preserve the wildlife and preserve the integrity of the island. For the price we paid we could buy ourselves a camper and stay on the beach for free with every amenity we could want. It’s hard to believe the amount of money that the cabins bring in each month that there isn’t more effort into updating and renovating the cabins to make them more desirable

Great place to relax, reflect, and fish! Miles of beautiful beach, wildlife, and a very cool lighthouse. You probably won't like it, stay home.

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.
