Clean water, showers, and amazing sites right near the ocean. We come every year.

Stayed in campsite D6, and we've been to Frisco Campground many times. This site offers a bit of privacy and the place to pitch the tent is sandy, though the sun hits it shortly after sunrise. This was fine for us but could be a downside for late sleepers. We have a strategy for this campground of choosing sites where the tent is up and exposed, for two reasons. First, if you choose a site where the tent pad is down in maritime forest, those spots are inviting for insects. Second, and most importantly, it is harder to catch a breeze through the tent at night. We've learned over time to choose a site where the tent is as elevated as possible. One year, we had a site where the tent was in a depression and the temps were in the low-80s overnight. It was like sleeping in a sauna.

We love our camp site in the P section. We could hear the ocean at night from our tent. The bathrooms and showers were always clean and in good service. The only thing there was no cell service from our camp site. I didn't care I just put my phone away but others in my party had an issue especially when I told them to enjoy and not worry about their phones.

We'll maintained and not crowded = the perfect camping getaway. I do wish there was more direct beach access for walking through the dunes rather than driving

The site was marked for me when I arrived. It was clean. The charcoal grill had been cleaned out as well. I noted that some overgrowth around my site had been trimmed back which was nice, allowing more room alongside my camper. Campground itself and communal areas were clean and fully functional and guests obeyed the rules. I had a great time.
