I already am gonna use coconuts for ADFs, but they need multiple hidey holes, so any other ideas for homemade ones
 
Make slate caves . Glue the slate pieces together with aquarium sillicone, leave overnight to cure, then put them into the tank. Tie java moss or Java fern to them where you can to make them look less obvious and more natural.

You could also do this with other types of rock. Just make sure they are well attatched and stable when you place them in the tank so they don't topple or fall apart and crush anything .

Tall plants are also good. Cabomba and elodia are easy and good plants to use. Floating plants like Riccia or Frogbit is good too.
 
cheapest homemade with stuff laying around would be plastic frosting containers cut out to such need, ducting used for your dryer cut to size bury under gravel but leave it half way empty so they can enter cut other holes in it for multiple ways or leave with just to openings for total black out cave for em be sure to fill the bottom of the ducting with your substrate and rinse and soak well before adding

also drying ducting would be even more perfect for your frog since its ribbed design means if you fill your remaing water after its in a bubble of air surrounds the top ribs giving a tired frog a quick air solution when it doesn't want to come out however without a air stone nearby once the bubble runs out its out
