Great site and amenities.
@SteveE7846862 · Camped on Mar 1, 2026 at Campsite #D15
Beautiful beaches and solitude in February, not much is open though.
@LindsayB696458 · Camped on Feb 21, 2026 at Campsite #D15
This was a great site tucked in between bushes for privacy. Private path between beautiful dunes to the beach. Bathrooms were clean and warm.

Great place for our 39ft rv. Enjoyed location close to the ocean and ferry.

A hidden gem for sure. Off season is very private although a lot of the facilities are closed including the potable water fill station just off site. Generators permitted on D loop 24-7 but A-C loops the quiet hours are 10pm-6am.

I had the campground mostly to myself on the evening of December 24th, and it was spectacular. The weather was clear enough that I could see the Milky Way.

My second stay at Ocracoke Campground. Tent camper, Gazelle T4 plus. Site was clean and well maintained. Bath house was very clean as well. Cold water only. Outdoor showers and potable water were off in winter so BYOW. Only ever camped in fall and winter so wasn't very crowded but, I'm sure it does get packed in the summer. Very quiet at night (when I was there). Great place to access beach, access ramps, access sound. Biking, walking, kayaking, fishing, shelling, oyster/clam harvest, bird watching, driving on beach (permit), fires on the beach, or head into town for shops, restaurants, charters. Overall, one of my favorite spots on the earth!.
Excellent

Really spectacular stars. Warm bathroom, never took the cold shower in December. Relatively close to good restaurant and brewery.

Great views of the milky way, beautiful beach, and nice camp sites.Clean facilities on most days.(cold) drinking water that tastes very good.Mobile coverage is hit or miss. If you must work with tele-presence, bring a Starlink dish and chose a camp side that is open to NNE.

You need to provide hot water for showers please

@RogerH7061222 · Camped on Nov 18, 2025 at Campsite #D7
Nice little campground, right on the beach. Well kept, and plenty of space between campsites. Only problem is they did not have heated showers.
@RussCD4808663F · Camped on Nov 17, 2025 at Campsite #B37
We were here in late November so there wasn't much going on. Nice beach though and clean campsites

@GregL2241545 · Camped on Nov 16, 2025 at Campsite #B3
We spent one night in our camper van on our first trip to the Outer Banks in many years. The campground has undergone many welcome improvements since out last visit. Our one afternoon and night were great before venturing further north to Frisco and Oregon Inlet.

Great place to camp, location is just on the other side of the dunes going to the ocean. Very clean restrooms and well-kept campground.
@WilliamL145693 · Camped on Nov 4, 2025 at Campsite #D24
You cant beat this CG!! A short walk over the dune and your on a beautiful beach!!
@KikiCD737EB91F · Camped on Nov 4, 2025 at Campsite #D12
Nice and quiet campground at a beautiful location. Town is also nearby.

Great camping area.
@LisM63DC4227D3 · Camped on Oct 26, 2025 at Campsite #D17
The park is well run, quiet and offers great access to the beach. We will be back
@LEESBD5BCC0581 · Camped on Oct 26, 2025 at Campsite #A5
I realize to tide was high but the dump station failed when I tried to use it. Needs to be reworked!!
@DeanD2479372 · Camped on Oct 20, 2025 at Campsite #D25
October is the best time to go. Mostly empty camping and the beach was very nice
Good
@JenniferD34519 · Camped on Oct 17, 2025 at Campsite #B16
Nice campground, but the presence of gas RV generators running all the time makes sleeping difficult. Should break of the campground into tents & RV section so tent people can sleep.
No Service
@AndrewC2299590 · Camped on Oct 9, 2025 at Campsite #A20
Ocracoke is awesome. Probably my favorite place in the states. Dont come. Youll mess it up for the rest of us.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
