Escape to a private island in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This secluded paradise sits in a protected position on the Roanoke Sound, where gentle waves lap the shoreline, bringing the peace of an oceanfront beach. Behind it, acres of private wetlands stretch toward the infamous John’s Ditch—where parts of a popular Netflix series were filmed. This wooded island of oaks and cedars owes its lushness to a subterranean freshwater aquifer flowing beneath this eco-elemental haven. A sloping white-sand beachfront is perfect for sunbathing, launching a kayak or paddleboard, or anchoring a flat-bottom, pontoon, or open-bow boat—available for rent through our concierge service. Guided dolphin tours, fishing expeditions, parasailing, kiteboarding, jet skis, and more can also be arranged to round out your island getaway. Whether you’d like your vacation fully coordinated or prefer a simple camping experience—the choice is yours. Please note: this is a true off-grid camping experience. No facilities—including electricity or plumbing—are available. While cell service is generally reliable, we encourage you to disconnect and use phones only for emergencies. Drinking water and bio-relief facilities are the camper’s responsibility but can be arranged through our exclusive concierge service. Leave No Trace camping regulations are enforced, so please plan accordingly—or book our full-service Island Sweep check-out service in advance. Don’t worry if you forget something—you’re just five minutes by boat from the public dock where you park your vehicle, with easy access to groceries and gear in nearby Nags Head. Alternatively, daily deliveries of food, firewood, and other essentials can be pre-booked through the concierge.
