About
Carolina Beach State Park's campground sits in a maritime forest near the coast, with 79 sites - most with no hookups plus 10 full-hookup RV sites (water, electric, sewer). Six camper cabins and two group camping areas with primitive walk-in tent sites are also available. Showers, flush toilets, a dump station, and coin-op laundry serve the campground, and the park's marina offers boat slips and fuel. The front gate is locked at posted closing times.
Fees
Non-electric sites run about $27/night; full-hookup sites (water, electric, sewer up to 50 amp) cost more - check current rates when booking. A 2-night minimum applies over Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day weekends. This park's current pet policy could not be confirmed with confidence; check directly with the park before bringing pets.
