Coastal Delaware RV campgrounds surround Little Creek with strategic locations for exploring beaches along the Atlantic and Delaware Bay shores. Most campgrounds in this region sit at elevations under 50 feet above sea level on flat terrain, providing stable parking for large rigs. Summers bring high humidity with temperatures consistently reaching 85-90°F, while spring and fall offer more moderate camping conditions with fewer crowds.
What to Do
Beach exploration: 10-20 minute drive from multiple Sun Outdoors Rehoboth Bay locations to oceanfront recreation. "The location cannot be beat. Lots of kids activities and the kids love the night swimming while adults can sit at the swim up bar," notes Theresa B. The campground offers "a beautiful heated pool, waterfront tiki bar, on site store and restaurant, kayak and golf cart rental."
Nature trails and wildlife viewing: Cape May County parks provide accessible walking paths suitable for all skill levels. "Close to a lovely walking trail," reports Jean T. about Sun Retreats Seashore Campsites. The campground's location offers access to coastal wildlife viewing opportunities without steep terrain.
Water activities: Options include kayaking, fishing, and swimming. "The beach is within 10ish minutes and is beautiful," says Nicole S. about Thousand Trails Lake & Shore. Many waterfront camping spots enable direct water access. "There was a nice experience. Everybody was friendly. We had a large pull through lot with our 36 foot fifth wheel," reports Cynthia D.
What Campers Like
Pool amenities: Most established campgrounds feature swimming facilities. "This is a nice well kept campground. Very pricey! But nice all the same I would visit again," comments J M. about Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina. Their facilities stay open through most of the camping season.
Proximity to multiple destinations: Central locations allow campers to access various coastal towns. "It's a good spot to explore cape may and the boardwalk while in the area," according to Michael J. about Thousand Trails Sea Pines. The campground's position makes day trips feasible to multiple beach communities.
Quieter shoulder seasons: Visiting in early spring or late fall reduces crowds. "We stayed early in the season and found it to be a little closed up still. It was very quiet," reports Paul B. Campgrounds near Little Creek typically operate from mid-April through October, with different amenities available depending on timing.
What You Should Know
Unlevel sites: Prepare leveling equipment. "Site are very unleveled so the staff switched us to a pull thru space that was a tad bit more level but still very unleveled," writes Daniel C. about Mays Landing Resort. Many RV campgrounds around Little Creek have similar terrain challenges.
Golf cart traffic: Many campgrounds allow personal transportation. "The golf carts were the absolute worst, people don't obey the speed limit on these things (and there are a lot of them whizzing around...)," observes Matthew E. This issue appears at multiple locations during peak season.
Variable site privacy: Some areas offer more seclusion than others. "Friends had a tiny lot with their shorter camper. They had no privacy," notes Cynthia D. Site dimensions and vegetation vary widely between loops at the same campground.
Tips for Camping with Families
Activity scheduling: Many campgrounds offer structured recreation. "Great campground for kids activities! Keeps them busy the whole time!" shares Melissa about Yogi Bear At Tall Pines Resort. Program availability varies by season with most options available during summer months.
Safety considerations: Water features require supervision. "Being as this is mostly seasonal sites and we were one of only a few transient campers, they could have called," reports Becca U. regarding pool closures. Always verify current status of amenities when traveling with children.
Noise levels: Campground environments vary by time and location. "We stayed in site 541. Our parents stayed in a cabin which was very nice with a bedroom, living/kitchen, and bathroom," shares Laure D. Sites near recreation areas typically experience more noise than perimeter locations.
Tips from RVers
Navigation challenges: Narrow access roads complicate arrival for larger vehicles. "The roadways are narrow and there isn't a lot of maneuvering room. We stayed in site 402a and it was a nightmare backing in and getting out of," explains Stephanie H. about Sun Retreats Avalon. Drive-through inspections before committing to sites can prevent access problems.
Seasonal considerations: Different amenities operate on varied schedules. "The grounds were well kept, the pool was clean, the bathhouse was clean AND air conditioned!" reports Becca U. Air conditioning becomes essential during humid summer months when temperatures regularly exceed 85°F.
Utility reliability: Electric service capacity varies between campgrounds. "It's an ok campground, nothing really special. The spots were tight and when our neighbor parked his truck in his spot, my chair could almost touch it," notes Yamileth K. Power demands increase during extreme weather, potentially causing service interruptions.
