What Guests Are Saying
Frisco Campground offers a beautiful beach on Hatteras Island, with clean facilities and private campsites surrounded by nature. Guests appreciate the quiet atmosphere and proximity to the beach, as well as the well-maintained bathrooms and showers. Some concerns include mosquitoes, occasional management issues, and the presence of sandburs, but overall, visitors express a strong desire to return to this charming campground.

If you’re looking for a true beach camping experience then this is the place. Love the serenity, the privacy of the campsites, the beach access. Bathrooms are very clean, lighthouse, the Ocracoke Ferry, lots of great restaurants are just around the corner.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fresco Campground. The staff we saw were friendly, non-intrusive, and helpful. We love this campground so very much; we hope it turns into a year round option - we would stay!

Best place to camp in NC by far. Love staying in Frisco when we go surf fishing. Facilities were clean and campground was quiet this time of year.

Large campground. A bit older and somewhat tired looking, but great access to the beach. Very nice boardwalk close to our campground in D loop over the dunes to the beach. Quiet when we were there in November, but looks it can get crowded. Clean bathrooms, cold showers.

IMO Frisco campground is the nicest Federal campground on the Outer Banks. The trees and brush have grown considerably since we were here last, 5 years ago, and offer good protection from the wind. One thing to keep in mind is there is no dump station at Frisco, Oregon Inlet or Ocracoke are your choices for that.

The campground is pretty overgrown. I understand it's a national park, but it would be nice to be able to see the dunes and ocean from more than 5 or 6 sites. It was the first day of the season and they didn't open the gates until check-in time. That would make more sense if they actually manned the place. I haven't seen a check in ranger at a National park or Corps of Engineers park in several years. It is quite remote and if you are looking for off the grid, a good choice!
