Awesome privacy and tree coverage. The site is ~5min walk from 2 bathroom sites. Beach is about 15 min walk
**the grill was rusted through and was not useable. This sucked and was the only downside

The campground location from the beach is great. Across from the entrance to the grounds is a gas station with a small grocery store that was very convienent for last minute items and ice. The site location (F5) was nice and quiet. Reasonably close to bathrooms. We were disappointed that the site was not maintained in anyway. (Knee high grass shoots matched with sand spurs) We spoke with the park ranger upon arrival about switching sites (we have small children). I was told that although there was the availability online, its a lot of work to switch sites in the computer system. I mention about our request in wanting to switch being the upkeep
The park ranger suggested I write a review with my suggestion about the site upkeep. Since we weren't able to switch sites, we spent sometime clearing a pad for our tents, around our picnic table and grill area. Not all site locations in the park are like this. If bringing an RV, I would have no problems with any sites. Every site seems to have enough parking space.

If Oregon Inlet can have hot showers why doesn't Frisco and Ocracoke? All Nation parks are great, but cold showers are not good. Need to have hot showers!!!

Sites are fairly level and very private for the spacing. Amenities and services available are close by. Overall, a very enjoyable experience.

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.
