About Long Point Cabin Camp

Escape to North Core Cabin Camp — a one-of-a-kind coastal getaway on North Core Banks within the stunning Cape Lookout National Seashore. Just off the mainland of North Carolina, this secluded destination offers unspoiled beaches, endless ocean views, and a true taste of island adventure.Built to replace the former Long Point Cabin Camp—which was lost to Hurricane Dorian in 2019—North Core Cabin Camp continues the tradition of seaside stays with a renewed spirit of resilience and natural beauty.Here, you’ll enjoy a primitive, self-sufficient camping experience surrounded by sand, sea, and sky. Each cabin features a hookup for your own generator, while restrooms and hot showers are available at a shared community bathhouse. Be sure to bring everything you’ll need for your stay—fuel and ice are not sold on-site, keeping this island experience refreshingly simple and off the grid.Getting here is part of the adventure. The camp is accessible only by boat, offering a sense of privacy and escape that’s hard to find anywhere else. Cross scenic Core Sound in your own vessel or bring your vehicle over on the vehicle ferry to explore miles of oceanside beaches. Once you arrive, it’s just a five-mile drive from the ferry landing to your cozy coastal retreat.Discover your next great adventure at North Core Cabin Camp—where the wild beauty of Cape Lookout meets the timeless joy of island living.

This is the best place to just unplug and relax, But make sure to bring everything you need food wise and drink wise for the duration of your stay. As the web site says...there is only ice and gas on the island. But its worth it. Its beautiful here.

This is a destination for true nature lovers...Take everything with you that you will need to survive and leave nothing but your footprints. Tent camping only at this time

My husband and I have been going to Portsmouth for over 30 years and every August we rent cabins at Long Point and take out whole family, which is about 20 now. Our oldest grandson was 2 when we starting taking him. He is now 28 years old and we are now taking our great grandchildren. It is a wonderful place to capture plenty of life long memories. We all love Portsmouth so much!!!!
