We had a great time. The week started very hot, then, rain and finally cleared off. The rangers were very nice. The restroom was clean.

Ocracoke Campground offers a beautiful, well-maintained setting with easy access to a stunning beach, making it a favorite among campers. Many reviews highlight the campground's cleanliness, helpful staff, and the peaceful atmosphere, ideal for relaxation and stargazing. However, some campers noted issues with mosquitoes, generator noise in the D Loop, and occasional maintenance concerns, but overall, the positive experiences outweigh the negatives, with many expressing a desire to return.

Some of the sites were wet, so we called and were able to switch easily. The campground was beautiful and very clean.

Site D3 was very nice. Easy access to the ocean and can hear the waves while falling asleep. There were a lot of black flies so bring repellant. Bathrooms and showers just a short walk, and cleaned daily. Overall a great campground.

An absolute MUST!
Part of the famous Great Loop, starting from Norfolk, VI and camping @Ocracoke Campsite was one of the best tours I've taken on my Harley, solo.
That little island is... enchanted, for lack of better words.
Just DO IT!

Dear Campers in Loop D, please observe the "No Generators in D Loop," policy before you make your reservations. D loop is for tent camping. If you need power, please invest in solar.
Thank You

Our campsite D17 was a short walk over the dune from the beach. We had plenty of room for a screen tent and 2 smaller sleeping tents. There was even a bit of shade there, which is not true of all Ocracoke sites.
My only complaint is that the D Loop is supposed to be the generator free zone, but in fact it is not. We called the non-emergency phone number our first night to complain about a neighbor using their generator throughout the early evening hours. They put us in touch with a NPS law enforcement ranger, who was very nice, but unfortunately stated that their compendium does not allow for enforcement of the D Loop as a generator free zone. They could only intervene if a generator is used after 10pm. We were planning for a quieter wilderness experience, but this was not the case. Fortunately, our noisy neighbor left before us, and we did enjoy a few quiet evenings!
Beautiful campground, and overall we had a pleasant time.

Insects where present from dusk till dawn, repellent is absolutely necessary.

We cut our vacation short because I did not see the little bit about No generator use from 10p-6a, I am not heat tolerant, nor are my 4 dogs camping with us, we tried it one night, Nope. I will say the beach was perfect, nice breeze, beautiful. Not only will we not return to that park, we will not return to Orcacoke Island in general. We waited in line for a Ferry to leave the island for 3 hours, again Nope.
