As long as you can find a fresh water source (not chemically contaminated), you can filter it.
Storage isn't actually too bad, I could keep everything except for the large water tank in a large closet. I just separate everything incase something happens to my only storage.
You can make the trip by kayak from the park office if your adventurous. Its a couple miles across but its so shallow you only need to worry about motor boat traffic in the intercoastal waterway channel.
There is a water spigot near the middle of the island. The say its non-potable but you can use it to wash dishes, etc. and would drink it with a water filter in a pinch, I always bring one of these. I would not plan on camping in the maritime forest, the bugs are horrific.
EDIT: I misread the 4 wheel drive comment. You can take the car ferry to cape lookout (one island north of Shacklefor) and camp, see the park service page
I ended up getting this monster:

I can fit my repair kit, and a full-on bag lunch in there.
I also only have 1 bottle as I carry a road morph pump on the other bracket. So for water I carry one of these (also in the saddle bag)

I'm lucky in that i have a lot of rivers and streams around me to fill my bottle from. I've done rides up to 8 hours with just that saddle bag full of food and the water filter.
I put a few snacks in my pockets to nibble on while moving as well.
