Setting
Great Island Cabin Camp offers 23 rustic beachfront cabins on South Core Banks within Cape Lookout National Seashore. Reached only by boat or vehicle ferry across Core Sound, the camp features structures ranging from 288 to 960 square feet with porches, bunk beds, hot-water showers, private bathrooms, and propane stoves. Cabins require guest-supplied generators for electricity. On-site facilities include a central bathhouse and camp office selling ice and fuel. The barrier island landscape offers 56 miles of undeveloped beaches, salt marshes, and dunes for surf fishing, shelling, and paddling.
