There is some separation and privacy between many of the sites. Short walk on a boardwalk to the beach. Nice beach but watch out for fishing lines.

The reservation system has filters for RV size. We traveled in a 30 ft trailer. The reservation system allowed us to reserve a site that would not accommodate a 30 ft trailer. Thankfully the campground d was not full and we were able to switch sites. Most sites in this campground are limited in length or width by sand dunes.

Installation of a solar heated water tank for the showers would be nice.

Great Campground with most sites very nice. Great location with easy access to the beach. Watch out for sand burrs! Bring fishing gear ,a book, some shade and unplug your electronic devices. Free ferry to Ocracoke is a fun trip. My only complaint would be I'd like hot showers. (Even if I had to pay)

What an amazing place, the tent sites are insane with their set backs and cave like placement back in the bushes and trees. Definitely a new favorite

This campground is absolutely one of our favorites! The only issue we had this trip was due to about 30 18-25 year old surfers who totally ignored the 10PM quiet time and proceeded to shoot off very loud fireworks starting about 1AM. Totally freaked out our dog and kept us awake most of the night. Oh well, the sins of my youth come back to haunt me! Otherwise, the place is great and the staff responsive. My only recommendation is to keep the response number on speed-dial!

Just the most natural and relaxation camping experience. Very quite and deep in the natural dunes.

I hesitate to leave a review, because we love Frisco so much & don't want to share it!
Hands down the best campground in the Outer Banks. The tent spots in the shade, the well appointed facilities and showers (tho they are cold water only!), the easy vehicle access to the beach, and the helpful hosts make Frisco the perfect spot.
The only negative is the plentiful mosquitoes, so be sure to pack bug spray.
