If you enjoy boondocking it was great. It would be much more enjoyable with water at every campsite. As close together as the sites are, two back to back could share an outlet.

Great campsites. All in full sun. No electric or water. Nice toilet/ sink house w cold , no light shower house nearby. Short walk to beach thru deep sand. Super, polite, quiet, fun, from everywhere campers. 3 hour ferry ride to mainland so plan ahead. Book online as no staff to ck you in etc. Remember your site # as it will be posted on your site.

The experience was magical. The sites are well maintained, and so are the bathrooms and bathhouses. The sunrise is stunning. Climb the sand dunes and watch the sun pop up over the ocean! The mosquitoes were missing in action, but a few deer flies showed up for the party. Everyone was quiet and respectful. Great for families and a gather of friends.

Sites are easy to back into but they are close to each other. Access to water is good. We didn’t use the bathhouses much but they are clean enough. The dump station is functional for that necessity.
Relatively convenient to the village and great access to the beach. Most campers kept to themselves and enjoyed their experience as we enjoyed ours.

Overall, it was what we expected, including the cold showers and insects but it's beach camping so that's OK. I do suggest better signage for the official beach access. The sites on the perimeters offer much more privacy than the inner sites. Our days here were some of our favorite of a three week road trip.

We have been coming to Ocracoke for over 30 years, camping for 5. We love it here. The camping experience is another matter. There are two main problems, loud open frame job site style generators and barking dogs.
We had three of these incredibly load generators near us. Fortunately one was there for only a day. The other two, which were next to each other, stayed for the rest of our visit. Several campers were forced to move due to the incredibly loud noise which went on from 8 am until 9 pm every day. Many state parks do not allow these types of gen sets.
And of course there is the ubiqitous barking dog problem. The Hosts and Rangers should be more proactive on this issue.
