76 RV Sites, 14 Tent Sites

Brunswick Beaches Campground in Sunset Beach, NC, offers 76 full-hookup RV sites and 14 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 100 feet.

At 100 feet the pull-thrus take the longest coaches. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, propane fills, a dump station, on-site dining, and both RV and boat storage cover the practical side, with cabins for guests without a rig.

Rates by site category are on the booking page. Summer on the Brunswick Islands books early.

A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, RV storage, and boat storage handle the practical side.

The Intracoastal setting is the distinguishing feature in a corridor where most properties face the highway. The Grand Strand's famously wide Atlantic beaches are a short drive, while the waterway's calm tidal water sits at your site — a combination that lets you keep a boat here and still be at the beach in minutes. Broadway at the Beach, Brookgreen Gardens, and the Myrtle Beach golf corridor are all close. Summer beach season drives the heaviest demand. Reserve well ahead for June through August, and for spring golf season.
