We took our toddler here as her first trip to the beach, and we had a wonderful time! The shells, sand, and a kite kept her busy for hours. There's a great swimming area down by the dock at the lighthouse. She could actually spend time in the water here, as the ocean was a little rough. The accomodations were as suspected. We did just fine without a generator, and just brought along a cooler, a fan, and a lantern for 3 days/2 nights. A beautiful time!

The island is quite , but the cabins are beyond need of renovations . The bathroom is dirty and smells like urine. The fly’s are so bad that you can’t kill them fast enough as more keep coming . The volunteers are very polite and helpful, but if you forget anything before you get to the island, your out of luck until the ferry’s run again .
The cabin is basically a shack and your lucky to have a roof . We had a 4 night stay and could only do it for 2 nights .
I would do a day trip if anything because the island is nice , but the cabins I would be cautious.

Beautiful place. We enjoyed our stay. Cabins are looking rough but for fishermen it is ok. For women and family some improvements are needed. Blinds would be nice in the bathroom. A back porch light would be nice. Thanks for allowing this place to remain open to the public.

For the price charged I think the cabins need to be upgraded with power be it solar or some other source.Seems like the southern end of island is receiving the bulk of the funds.

Fees,fees,fees!! Y’all keep going up on everything but you won’t put any money back into the cabins. There was over $50k dock built to accommodate all the day trippers but you can’t spend a penny on the ragged cabins. The rates are out of this world expensive for what you’re getting. Yes it’s all about getting away but for $180 per night you could have some sort of power system like what was at Portsmouth. There’s mice and snakes in the one I just came from so be ware if you stay in cabin 5.

The cabins are definitely better than a tent in the wind! We enjoyed the stay, cabins could use a little TLC.

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.
