General: Two campgrounds – Sandspur has oceanfront sites and Buttonwood is on the marina. We attempted to make reservations here 11 months in advance (as soon as they opened up) and were shut out. Lucky for us, we checked on a whim two days before our stay and there was a cancellation for an oceanfront site. Score! This review focuses on the Sandspur campground. 

Site Quality: Each site in the Sandspur campground has a fenced-in area separating it from other sites. Although you can see your neighbors, there is a decent amount of separation between sites and the waves provide a noise buffer. Sites are gravel/rocky and flat. Electric hookups, a picnic table, and a grill complete the site. 

Bath/shower: There are temporary bathrooms as the original ones are still under repair following hurricane damage. The temporary ones have a toilet, sink, and shower and were clean. 

Activities/Amenities: The beach is rocky but there is beach access. There is a marina and a path to the old railroad bridge. Boat tours are available as are kayak rentals. There is a small store that sells t-shirts and other like items. 

About the only thing that we didn’t like about this campground (aside from the difficulty securing a site) was the no-see-ums! They are vicious and you will be itching for weeks – but was worth the experience to camp right on the ocean!
