I was looking for Beach front camping on the east coast. Not state parks but rather nice family campgrounds with amenities. I have done Myrtle Beach (Pirate Land and Ocean Lakes) and recently did OuterBanks (Camp Hatteras). Any idea for my next family vacation? My wife likes the campgrounds that are ocean front. I was also thinking maybe lake fronts as well.
If your interests are primarily the beach and not crowded, consider T H I S, Surf City Family Campground in North Topsail Beach, NC. The reviews are pretty good, indicating it's a basic campground. And what's my connection/knowledge of this place? It's been around for a long time. I remember staying there many years ago and thinking this place was an unspoiled gem. It was at that time, for someone looking for camping right on the beach, with minimal crowds and lots of beach to explore. At that time there wasn't a whole lot in the area, and from the reviews it appears that's not changed over the years.
