I have gone to this location for 40 years. Great UNSPOILED BEACHES. Staff always helpful, no issues with the cabin. Superintendent Jeff West is great.

What a gem! Pure peace and serenity! Cabin was in good shape. Check in and check out was fast and easy. Park rangers were friendly and helpful. This is a great place to unwind, and to get away from your everyday hustle and bustle. Will definitely go back! (Just remember it’s camping, not glamping)

Location, location, location. Rustic camping cabin with warm water and a gas stove and oven. Oven is a bit unpredictable but still a luxury on the beach. The cabin offered great shelter during the North Easterner Storm that we experienced.

Great trip. great cabin. Staff friendly as always. Hot water at cabin could use an upgrade. Virtually no hot water in kitchen area. Shower hot water hard to regulate.

The trip was good. We caught a lot of fish. The cabin was good and functional

GREAT PLACE BUT NOT FOR EVERYONE. LIMITED CAMPING AREAS THAT WILL NOT OBSTRUCT ROADS. THIS ISLAND HAS NO PAVEMENT, ALL DRIVING IN THE SAND AND MUST HAVE 4 WHEEL DRIVE.

It’s very disheartening to see the cabins in such a state of disrepair. We’ve been coming here for 15 years and since the Park service took over managing the cabin they have really let them just go I understand there was a hurricane last year but the repairs they made were inexcusable. Checking in with the park rangers upon arriving to the island was a less than desirable experience. They really made us feel unwelcome and it left us with the feeling that the Park service doesn’t really want people visiting the island anymore. I understand it’s the national seashore which we want to maintain so the generations from now can enjoy it but why doesn’t the Park service offer little ranger talks to explain some of the safety measures that they’re taking to preserve the wildlife and preserve the integrity of the island. For the price we paid we could buy ourselves a camper and stay on the beach for free with every amenity we could want. It’s hard to believe the amount of money that the cabins bring in each month that there isn’t more effort into updating and renovating the cabins to make them more desirable

Enjoyed our stay . Beautiful place. stayed in a 6 man cabin. No problems other than having to relight oven pilot. Will be back 4 more times this year.

One of my favorite places on earth! Peaceful to say the least
