We were in C-5, the sight is fairly level only required 1/2 inch raise. The sight isn’t very long or wide. We are in a 27 foot towable and occupied about 3/4 of the sight. We parked the truck on the side partially on the grass but no one mentioned the parking job. The roads in the campground are all paved and easy walking or bike riding. The bath houses were very well maintained (loop C anyway). The proximity to Ocracoke village was a very easy and short bike ride. The rangers and camp hosts were very regular about touring the camp ground.
Now the best part - the proximity to the beach from C5 was an easy walk over two dunes and we were there. The beach is very nice. It is very wide so vehicles don’t have to get close to you. Fishing and driving on the permits are easy to apply for so bring your fishing stuff.

Our campsite was perfect. We had easy access to the beach, and a few bushes to protect us from the wind and provide a little privacy from the other sites. Bathroom and shower were clean. Staff were helpful and friendly. Only downside were the mosquitos.

We had a wonderful time! The ferry was so easy and the campsite was perfect. It did rain a lot overnight and many of the sites got flooded. Be sure to get the sites that have the dunes to the back of you to stay the driest. There were a lot of mosquitos so make sure you close your cubby doors to your trailer while you are setting up. We also saw Portuguese-man-of- war jellyfish washed up on the beach after the storm. Yikes! Be careful. We loved Eduardo's Taco truck and also enjoyed 1718 Brewery. The half marathon was going on the weekend we were there and the runners make a loop through the campground. We want to run next year and camp again.

Great place to unwind. Showers are great in summer, but consider a solar bag shower to use in shower buildings in other months due to no hot water. Be aware of the weather, because you could have problems getting on or off the island due to ferry delays. So be flex able in your plans and schedules.
