Love the location of the campground. Please keep camps such as this one, simple and affordable..not everyone needs water and hook ups on site.
The only thing was that the access to the beach with a steep dune at the end of the boardwalk with very soft and deep sand on one side was a little hard for a senior, more efforts had been made for the SUVs access.
Apart from that, I am bery grateful that we have such campgrounds as Frisco and will definitely return.

It is wonderful to be able to camp in an area not over developed. The campsites are well spaced and very comfortable.

Very beautiful park, if you love the beach and water sports, you love this place. We wanted to hike ( we love walking) since it was too hot for us (we are from the north), we walk on the beautiful Frisco beach where it was cooler.

This is a nice spot to camp but beware the ticks! We expected mosquitoes and even some poison ivy, but the ticks were everywhere. No place was safe, not even the concrete. We were doing tick check every 4-6 hours and still managed to find super tiny ones attached. I would recommend treating your clothes, camp chairs and tent with permethrin prior to arrival.
Otherwise the sites are relatively nice, most of them lack shade so be sure to bring a tarp or some sort of system that enables you to create shade in the middle of the day. The restrooms were clean and the sites are relatively spread out. Cell phone reception is pretty spotty so don't expect much. The walk to the ocean is also quite lovely and depending on where your site is, you can either walk directly from your site or there are parking areas near each of the boardwalks that head to the beach.

This is a nice little spot, just be prepared to see ant hills and having to deal with a slope in your tent spot if using a tent. I had slept on a hill, although I still slept nice. Booking this spot will have you close to the beach boardwalk access, which is like a 5 minute walk to the beach. Very lovely views. The bathrooms and showers are not far at all. There is also a market before entering the road to the campgrounds that makes it convenient for morning nom noms or light snacking if interested. Very nice, quiet and beautiful place to camp.
