We always love visiting Frisco Campground. The sites are large on rolling hills, and are quite private, enclosed in trees and bushes. Although there were RV generators running up until 10:00pm, we could not hear them because of the foliage. The walk to the beach was beautiful, on a long boardwalk that crosses a grassy area that at night sometimes is covered in fireflies and sometimes deer. We love the Outer Banks and this is definitely our favorite campground.

Despite the flooding from recent storms the number of bugs were fairly low, and my campsite, B16, remained dry. I liked its proximity to the bath house and showers. I noticed that the renovations of a few years back are standing the test of time and oceanfront weather pretty well. I saw little of the staff but clearly, they were on the job: my information was correct and at my site when I arrived and the common areas remained clean and stocked for my 4 days stay. Other campers as usual were courteous and friendly. I continue to enjoy the new reservation system and hope it remains in place. Not having to stress finding a suitable site after the long drive to get there is an excellent feature. Overall, a wonderful stay, and I can't wait to go again.

Site F1 was perfect! Some shade and a quick path walk to the bathrooms/showers. Cold showers felt great after hot beach days. No mosquitoes when we were here but there were some ants that bit our feet. Overall, best camping experience to date!

Great campground all around. Some sites are better than others. Always somebody that wants to run their generator all day. For the most part, it's quiet and clean. Get a beach driving permit . It's a great destination.

Frisco Campground is unique and beautiful. There are some incredible sites with scenic views of the dunes and ocean and others with a full canopy of trees to shelter from the sun. Facilities are well-maintained. Watch out for cactus though!

The campground at Frisco is unique in that it has enough brush to provide privacy and/or shade (depending on campsite.) Bathrooms and showers are conveniently located and clean. And, beach access is right there.
