Our site (P028) was a tight squeeze. There was no place to put the tent other than on the pavement, which left very little room for our vehicle.
Also, we had booked this campsite in hopes of less development around the beach. It's true that there were no hotels or cottages nearby, but cars/trucks can park on the beach. By 10am, it's was wall-to-wall trucks as far as we could see.

Wonderful campground. Quiet, lots of shady sites along the perimeter road for tents or canopies to set up back in the trees. Nice level sites, clean restrooms & bath houses. As stated on the .gov website, the showers are cold (not a big issue at the beach as ambient temps are warm) and the mosquitoes can be intense in the dawn and dusk times. Make sure you take bug spray and you will have a lovely time. We enjoyed our stay immensely and will stay again the next time we are in the OBX.

Great campground! We saw deer several times, it was so quiet and peaceful and the camp hosts were all great.
Most definitely will return (when the ticks and mosquitoes are gone!)

Site: Shhhh don’t tell - this is the best site at the campground. All shaded - completely enclosed by trees so you feel very isolated. 5 min walk to boardwalk path, additional 10 mins and you’re on the beach. Close to the showers and bathrooms.
Campground: clean bathrooms, love the refreshing cold showers. Only bummer (reason star docked) is the cool water dispensers were broken on the A and B loops.

Frisco Campground Pros: It is a quieter campground than Oregon Inlet, and some spaces are quite nice and have privacy. Mile Marker 49 is within the camp, and the beaches are easily accessible and not too crowded. The campground is near the Ocracoke Ferry.
Frisco Campground cons: My spot, P20, was not that great and could use some maintenance. Paths to the beach are further than Oregon Inlet, but they are nice. Overall, it's not too bad for $28/night.

P27 is a nice camp spot. You do get morning and evning sun but over all it was realatively flat and could easily fit two tents. It was close to the bath houses and restrooms. Both bath houses and restrooms were clean and well maintained. Be advised the showers are not heated but for us the air temperature was 85* so the none heated showers were not that bad, We had NO cell phone coverage at all on our site. We either had to walk to the top of the campground or the beach for coverage.
