Homer Spit Campground is close to the end of the road on the spit, not far from the touristy hustle and bustle. A few friends and I got two adjoining beachfront tent sites here last weekend.
Pros:
The beachfront sites are as they say - on the beach front. Fresh ocean air, a beautiful view, a beach full of seashells...
There are restrooms with running water and soap available at the campground, as well as shower rooms (prepay $1.00 at the office per shower).
Homer Spit Campground is within short walking distance from your pick of places to sign up for tours, eat, drink, shop, etc.
Cons:
The campgrounds are small enough that even when attempting to stay in your own spot, it's difficult to prevent overlapping with other campers.
Prices were higher than other spots - $35.00 +tax for a tent site with no electric/water, with a two-night minimum and deposit of one night paid up front.
Overall, we are glad we chose Homer Spit Campground. Between the view, ease of check-in, proximity to the Spit's activities, and campground amenities, I felt it was well worth the price. The one thing I would recommend: go earlier in the year. The wind and rain was a bit much for me in a tent. Also, if you would rather die than see other people during your camping trip, don't camp anywhere on the Spit. It stays PACKED.
