We love this campground we go almost every year is always clean when we get there, restrooms are clean but they really need to upgrade the showers there is no light pretty much nothing to hang towels /clothes in there, most of of the doors wont stay locked so if you have a high wind your door will open in the middle of a shower

The campground and beach were clean. One toilet in bathroom was marked out of order for the 4 days we were there.

Ocracoke is spacious, breezy, and has simple amenities that make the camping experience comfortable but also not too fancy. I really enjoy staying at this campsite year over year.

There is no longer a designated area for tenting which means there are campers with generators allowed throughout the campsite. The noise is terrible.

One lovely night at Ocracoke! Proximity to the beach was great. Incredible stars! Wonderful spot to wake up to on my 34th birthday.

Need to communicate and monitor generator use and hours more closely. Seems like people are confused when making reservations l that section D is non-generator at all times. Many value quiet when camping.

We love the NPS campground on Ocracoke so much that we have been there coming for 19 years.It is rustic with cold showers only and no electricity or wifi signal, which makes it perfect for anyone who wants to be disconnected from all electronics and social networks and to be reconnected with nature.It is a unique pristine but fragile environment; we love sleeping at night with just the sound of the waves crashing on the other side of the dunes.

The Park Service Rangers and staff are doing an excellent job maintaining the campground despite being short of, what was already not enough, staff and funding due to recent cuts. Thanks to them for their dedication.

We love the Ocracoke campground. The camp hosts did a fantastic job and were extremely helpful.

The best camping on the Outer Banks. The ferry was easy. The island of Ocracoke was beautiful, quiet and welcoming. Campsites were spacious and clean, the facilities were simple, clean and more than adequate.
@CourtneyB98483 · Camped on Jul 18, 2025 at Campsite #C2
Excellent campground! Well maintained grounds and the restrooms/showers are quite reasonable and clean. You can't the location to access the beach either!
@MichaelC616917 · Camped on Jul 17, 2025 at Campsite #B11
The location is fantastic! The campsite is well-maintained and the amenities are perfect given the proximity to the beach. I'll be reservations for next year. The village of Ocracoke is also quite special!

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
