Yep September and October very nice here that time of the year. We are never really crowded but the State Parks fill up quickly during the summer months not that there are a lot of people here at that time they are just really nice state parks. Make your reservations for Harris Beach State Park and Bullards State Park in advance so you will be assured of a spot. The scenery is amazing the two parks are only 85 miles apart but you will find a lot of things to do and I would bet you will want to spend time at both places. Both are right next to the Ocean. Have fun we always do. Oh if you like crab bring crab traps you can't miss with that.
