Overall the campground is nice and the restrooms were very clean but we were camping with our dogs and we’re unaware of all the goatheads and cactus everywhere. It should be written on the website for future bookings. We likely wound not have camped there if we had known ahead.

We enjoyed the privacy afforded by the vegetation. We had to move from one site to another because we reserved last minute. Both up on the upper P loop had views. It was so nice! We found all three bakeries within a half hour. They were all really good, but the Orange Blossom was outstanding! The Apple Ugly lived up to all the rave reviews. Other than that we saw the lighthouses hiked the few trails, and walked on the beach. We stayed at 3 of the 4 National campgrounds (1 was flooded), and Frisco was by far our favorite.

Great secluded sites, quiet and only the sound of the ocean can be heard! Love close access to the beach in our 4WD.

We had a very nice site but not meant for a 40’ motorhome. Parked our car on the grass, 3days in we were told can’t park on grass, had to park at bathhouse. No satellite service, spotty phone. But, the price was right, and close to many Outer Bank amenities.

Decent camp ground with semi private sites. Good location to town and close access to ORV entrance. May check it out again.

The campground is lovely with a variety of campsites to please just about anyone. Some are sunny and some are shady. There are sites to accommodate RVs or tents and anything in between. There are no electrical sites but that is not a concern for me. The restrooms are neat and well kept as are the showers. Just FYI: As far as I know there are only cold showers and no lights in the shower houses. The beaches nearby and further afield are just outstanding and I didn't even try to tear myself away from them. I love how things are kept accessible while still maintaining the natural beauty. I had little interaction with the staff but what little I did have was very friendly and upbeat. I enjoyed visits to some of the lighthouses in the area and a restaurant or two for lunch. The nights were very dark making star gazing a peaceful end to each day. It is a long drive from where I live but I have no doubt that I will be returning over and over again.

Campground is kept immaculately clean, the rangers who work there are always smiling, friendly and unfailingly courteous. It is also a beautiful, pristine locale topographically. I've been camping at Frisco Campgrounds next to Billy Mitchell airport since 1970 and it has not changed a bit. Not many places there you can say that about and it is areal bargain to boot $-wise.
