No restrooms are mapped within 600 m on OpenStreetMap. That means nobody has mapped any, which is not the same as there being none.
When is Masonboro Island Reserve least busy?
Google visit patterns put the quietest hour at Tue 8am and the busiest at Sun 2pm.

Measured from OpenStreetMap, public aerial imagery and live conditions data, and counted from visitor reviews. Every source, in full.
