Generators at campgrounds should be relegated to specific areas.
C loop shower and restrooms were closed.
However, best. Beach camping. Ever. Biking into town an easy 3.5 miles.

Nice campground, only stayed one night as I was headed for the northern parts of the outer banks but hope to return for a longer stay someday. Real quiet at night with good star gazing.

The only think I would add would be Electricity at some of the sights.

This campground was very good! It is extremely self-service, which is nice, and we really enjoyed getting up early and seeing the sunrise just over the sand dune. This one horrible downside is that the whole campground is infested with sand fleas/sand bugs, which appeared as soon as the wind died down and bit us unrelenting. But I understand that that is unavoidable, and otherwise we had a really good time.

The campground was beautiful and the staff were very nice. Showers everywhere. Bring bug spray and use it in advance. Don’t wait until it’s too late
