Frisco North Carolina

Looking for a home in the friendly Outer Banks town of Frisco NC.

Frisco is a small unincorporated community on the barrier island of Hatteras Island, between the villages of Buxton and Hatteras. It is located in Dare County, North Carolina. Most of the land is taken by houses available for rental during the summer months, and as such the community's population varies seasonally. North Carolina Highway 12 serves as the primary road in Frisco and connects the community to others on the island.

Before the arrival of the post office, this village was named Trent, or Trent Woods. The point is often made that the Hatteras Island village names were changed because they were difficult to pronounce or spell, but this was certainly not the case here.

As the postal system expanded to incorporate remote regions --and Hatteras Island was truly remote, it was often found that communities had used the same, or very similar, names. To prevent confusion, a new name would be chosen. This was probably the case involving Frisco at the time, though the Postal Service does not currently list another Trent in North Carolina.

General Billy Mitchell is honored with an airfield named for him at Frisco. This famed Army Air Service officer used the local airstrip to demonstrate his talents by bombing battleships off the coast on September 5, 1923. This exhibition was one of the major factors leading to the establishment of the modern United States Air Force

Tiny Frisco houses dot part of the shady and serene Buxton Woods, where nature walks are a must. It is also home to the nationally recognized Frisco Native American Museum, run by Carl and Joyce Bornfriend. The tranquil museum is filled with authentic Indian artifacts and educational displays. Be sure to tap the drum for good luck when you leave. The site of an ancient Indian village has been found near the museum and is being excavated. Frisco is heavily wooded on the sound side, and the homes are tucked back into the trees so you can't really tell how many houses are there. There are no hotels or motels, but there are many ocean and sound side cottages for rent. Frisco is home to one of the National Park Service campgrounds, a great place for secluded camping among the sand hills. Two other campgrounds in Frisco are very popular for their isolated camping among the trees. Fishing is great at the Cape Hatteras Pier, locally called the Frisco Pier. There's an airfield at Frisco, where air tours are popular. Some great art galleries are there, too. The quietude of Frisco makes a vacation feel intimate and special, and visitors who come here once often return again and again
