A kind of plain Jane campground in a spectacular beachfront setting. No shade but each site has a shelter over the picnic table. No WiFi on site and cable was useless. Bathhouse was fairly modern. On our site the cap for the sewer was smaller than the sewer pipe so there was no way to cover the opening. Rates a bit higher than most military. A mix of wonderful and mediocre.

Wonderful campground. We will be back. Close to the beach, clean and quite for a military campground. Mini-mart close by is GREAT! It closes too early. Covered picnic tables that sit on new concrete pads is very nice. Maintenance seems to be in the area a lot keeping things working well. The downside: the "free wifi" ONLY works on the office porch. No external antenna to push the signal and it doesn't look like one is coming in the near future. The "free cable" works with some playing around with the box they give you. Newer campers and the instructions don't seem to link up. Most of the campers while we were here give up on trying. Time to upgrade and get rid of the cable boxes they supply. Your water supply is located in your neighbor's site, but works well. If coming to the NC Coast this military campground is MUCH nicer than Ft Fisher. Also much better customer service.

Private Beach

Location, location, location... that's why I rate this one 4 stars! In off-peak, it is like having your own private beach. This was our first time to stay here, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I found there to be ample biking and running, and the beach is full of shells, shark's teeth, and even found some sea glass. There's a MCX on the corner. The campground is small, and the sites are tight with no frills. However, they do have full hook-ups. The sites are all back in, and we managed just fine with our 43 foot coach. There's also a bridge that you occasionally have to wait for when coming to or going from the campground. The bridge has to rotate to let certain watercraft pass. Also, be advised that you must be military or retired military to stay here... and with that also know that it can get quite noisy in the area if they are conducting training exercises (like they did our last weekend there). It's also about an hour and a half to Wilmington, plus there's some other nice, beachy towns in the nearby area. The price, at $32 per night, is more expensive than most military facilities we encounter... however, location, location, location! It's still a good deal!

We have stayed here several times. What is really nice is it is about .1 mile from the beach and borders the Intercoastal waterway. The fishing is great in September and October. Each site has a covered picnic area. There is a bathhouse and each site has 50 amp service. The cons - it is expensive. They raised their rates this year to $42 per night, the wifi did not work at the site we had. Last time we were there they hadn't even mowed the grass. Was disappointed.

We so enjoyed ourselves at Onslow Beach that we extended our week stay for another week. Only complaint was the poor wifi service but we are AT&T in Version country. The staff was wonderful and very accommodating. Enjoyed riding our bikes and easy walking trips to the beach. Intercostal waterway was approximately 50 yards from our site.... And the alligator sign is FOR REAL. Great relaxing place and the other campers are very friendly. We meet some of the nicest people. Would stay there again when we are back in the area.

This site is too expensive for the East Coast $32 a night when I asked why it was so high they told me they are keeping up with the campgrounds ( civilian ) in the area. Planning to raise the price more! Someone need to Step in and keep the prices for the soldiers low

Made a reservation for Onslow Beach while we were on the road, made sure we had the needed documents for our dogs, great everything is all set. When we stopped, looked up the camp ground and noted there were pet restrictions, they never mentioned this while on the phone with them, had to call back and cancel.

Nice camp ground nestled between the intracoastal waterway & the Atlantic ocean. Large sites, friendly hosts & Rec workers. Has laundry on site watch out for candy or something melted in dryers. At $17 a night + a 10% discount off season for a 30 day stay it can't be beat. All services, commissary, exchange, fast food etc about 12 miles away on mainside. Also has a Firestone dealer on base. Really enjoyed it.
