Best Cabin Camping near Seaford, DE

Trap Pond State Park Campground offers several cabin options within a 30-minute drive of Seaford, Delaware. The cabins feature electricity, basic furnishings, and are situated near the pond with views of the surrounding forest. Cabin sites provide fire rings, picnic tables, and parking areas close to the accommodation. Visitors have access to clean bathrooms with shower facilities, although some cabin areas have portable toilets during construction periods. "Sites have an interesting semi-circle pull through layout so backing in not required. They are not level and have a sandy base so it took a bit of work to finally get the rig level, even with auto-levelers."

Cabin accommodations range from rustic to well-appointed options across several state parks and private campgrounds. Cape Henlopen State Park, Delaware Seashore State Park, and Killens Pond State Park all provide cabin rentals with varying amenities.

The Resort at Massey's Landing and Sun Outdoors Rehoboth Bay offer more upscale cabin options with additional amenities. A recent review noted, "The yurt was cozy and had a waterfront view of the pond. They fit up to 5 people and are air conditioned, but you'll need your own sheets, pillow, and blankets!"

Most cabin rentals provide beds and basic furniture but require guests to bring their own linens, pillows, and towels. Kitchen facilities vary significantly between locations—some offer only outdoor cooking options while others include small refrigerators and microwaves. On-site camp stores at locations like Trap Pond provide essential items, firewood, and ice, though their operating hours may be limited.

    Pocomoke River State Park Campground

    Amazing Grounds!

    Wow, stayed on this place en route up the East Coast and I was amazed! The bathrooms and cabins must have been new, or at least just renovated. The bathroom was almost like showering at a spa! Stainless steel, wood paneling, very clean. The cabins included ac/heater, ceiling fan, nice bed padding, and plastic chairs/table. The site also included a picnic table and fire pit. Pet friendly as we stayed with our golden retriever with a great view of the river. This campsite is a must stay, especially for glampers and probably a good choice for those who love ac/heating!

    Sun Outdoors Ocean City

    Small but beautiful

    Site #271

    Full hookups: 20/30/50 amp water & sewer

    Very nice/small campground on the Sinepuxent bay. Gets very busy during the weekend, even though it's considered off season but people respect quiet hours. We could hear the live band perfectly from our site which we liked. Not too many planned activities but free shuttle to nearby Berlin & Ocean City.Short drive to all Ocean City has to offer. Clean bath houses and golf cart rental was an added bonus! Highly recommend our site to anyone with littles as you can literally relax at your site while your child plays at the playground! All sites included a fire ring with cooking grate and picnic table. Fairly easy to back in but they do have pull throughs available as well. Site was fairly spacious and campground is SUPER pet friendly!

    Cape Henlopen State Park Campground

    Sandy but fun

    The main thing to know is that the cabins and campsites are all on sandy ground.

    For this visit we camped in the cabins with three other families each in their own cabins. The cabins are very spacious, have electric, air and heat. They also have a mini fridge and small microwave as well as tons of cube storage. There are two twin bunks in one room and a queen bed and sofa in the main room. The porch is screened in with a fan and a picnic table. Trash cans, garbage bags, a broom and dust pan are provided.

    The cabins are all located near each other in a circle and are pretty close. They are great for group camping.

    The nature center here is great for kids and includes several fish tanks, a stingray touch tank and a horseshoe crab touch tank. There are lots of kids friendly hiking trails around and historic military sites as well as some neat playgrounds.

    Trap Pond State Park Campground

    Beautiful views and quiet campground

    For this visit, I stayed in one of their two yurts. The views were just gorgeous.

    The yurts have a bunk bed with a queen mattress on the bottom and a twin on top, as well as a futon that folds out into a queen. The bunks were very comfortable, but the futon was so hard we didn't even use it to sit on. The yurts also have electricity, heat and air, and are well equipped with other items such as: a trash can, broom and dustpan, standing lamp, two chairs, two small tables, a fire extinguisher, and two fly swatters.

    The views should be the huge selling point of this campground. When you walk out of the yurt, you walk onto your own raised wooden deck to beautiful views of Trap Pond. There are plenty of trees around for shade, but not so many that you can't enjoy the view. The trees also seclude you somewhat from your neighbors in the cabins, but you could interact if you wish.

    The closest restrooms to the cabin and yurt area are port-a-potties but they are currently prepping to build a bath house in this area.

    The cabins and yurts are walk up and wheelbarrows are provided. The walk is also pretty close. There is no running water, but there is a centrally located water pump.

    The campground offers a lot to do and quite a bit of it is free: free bike rentals, free horseshoes and ladder ball, two huge playground area and a nature center. They also have boat rentals and a boat tour available.

    We will definitely be visiting again!

    Shad Landing Campground

    Close to the ocean without the cost of OC

    Shad Landing,along with it’s sister park Milburn Landing, make up Pokomoke State Park. It’s just 45 minutes away from the beach at Assateague Island and an hour or so to Ocean City or Chincoteague. The sites are varied- some are more apt to hold smaller tents than larger ones, there are RV sites as well- cabins too. Each loop, with the exception of Waters Edge have full bathrooms with warm showers and flush toilets. Pets are allowed in some loops. The marina/ park office has a well stocked camp store as well as a kitchen that serves pizza and the like. Boat rental are available as well (try the canoe loop trail) There have been years when we stay here instead of hotels at OC- much cheaper and close to more than just commercial crap. Besides the beaches, it’s also close to the truly excellent NASA Wallops Island center that my kids thoroughly enjoy, as well as incredibly awesome food in nearby Berlin and Pocomoke City. Each site provides a picnic table and fire ring. Most have a lantern hook. In season there is a large swimming pool- free for campers. The nature center regularly holds programs and there are a few hiking trails here and in the nearby Pocomoke State Forest.

    Martinak State Park Campground

    Quiet and Peaceful

    We had a wonderful time at Martinak State Park. We rented a mini cabin and it had a full bed, two bunk beds and AC which was such a nice amenity. The site had a fire ring, grill and picnic table. We were right next to the bathhouse walkway. The bathhouse was very nice, clean and the showers had warm water. Due to the boat ramp being closed, there were not many places for fishing besides fishing off the back of the amphitheater. We drove to sister park, Tuckahoe State Park (15 min) and there was plenty of fishing locations. Cell signal was spotty, but perfect for a weekend away. Will stay again!

    Cape Henlopen State Park Campground

    Diverse area with lots for kids

    We love this state park and campground. For this trip, we arrived with friends and staying in their cabins. The cabins were clean and spacious with AC, heat and electricity. In addition they had a mini fridge and microwave indoors. Each cabin included a screenshot in porch with picnic table, an outdoor picnic table and fire pot with grill.

    The park has wooded trails, trails in the beach, historic sites and an amazing nature center with a touch tank that included sting rays and horseshoe crabs.

    Highly recommend this site and can't wait to return with our tent.

    Killens Pond State Park Campground

    Great for kids!

    My son absolutely loved this place. There’s anything and everything you could think of available to keep everyone busy. A water park, volley ball field, playgrounds, amphitheater, nature center, nature trails, and boat rentals at the lake.

    It is a huge park, with secluded spots available for tent camping, cabins, and regular open spaces for camping rvs with electric hook up. Staff was friendly, campgrounds were well kept. It can get a little crowded but it’s worth it to stay. If you don’t like crowds, I suggest coming during the week days!

    Trap Pond State Park Campground

    Favorite DE campground

    Last family trip of the year and it didn’t disappoint. We stayed in site D25 again just as we did 2 yrs ago. It’s a pull through site as are all sites in loop D. This is pet friendly and has electric and water. Dump station is across from loop D. There are 5 loops with Loop E being tent and cabins/hurts only. That Loop also has island tent sites. We couldn’t walk into that area. Each loop or area has its own bathhouse which appear to all be individual family style bathrooms.

    The layout of the sites in loop D is not typical. All sites in this loop are pull through and parallel to the road, so the left drivers side of your camper faces the road and the right side faces your camp area. If you stay in an inside loop site you will be facing the camper on the other side of the loop. For instance D11 and D14 face each other. The distance between sites across the loop isn’t huge or blocked by any foliage but didn’t seem to be an issue for our friends who stayed in D24. If you stay on the outside of the loop you will either face the woods (higher numbered sites) or loop C through the trees ( lower numbered sites). Our site is pretty level as are most sites. This is Delaware which is flat land.

    The one issue with most every site are the trees. Most every site has a tree to watch out for. Other loops are all back in sites and many of those have trees to keep an eye on as well. This is a shaded campground. At the end of each loop is a pier on the pond which is large and beautiful. There are playgrounds in each loop and bike rentals at the camp store.

    The tent area is walk in but they provide wheelbarrows or carts to haul your stuff. These sites are very private and well spaced off the walk-in path and from each other. The cabins and yurts are also walk-in but again you have the use of carts. Some of the cabins are facing the pond and offer gorgeous views.

    There is a primitive group camp area complete with bathhouse, screened in pavilion, open air pavilion, numerous picnic tables, horseshoe and volleyball courts and sits at the point so the views of the pond are plentiful.

    There is a disc golf course within walking distance and the weekend we were there a competition was happening. There is a day use area with boat rentals and lots of trails for hikers or horses to use.

    The town of Laurel nearby has a few stores. I found This and That Country Store which was so cute. The owner was super nice. The beach areas of Delaware are not too far away if you want a beach day.

    This has become one of our favorite campgrounds in DE.


Guide to Seaford

Cabin camping near Seaford, Delaware offers options within a 60-minute drive radius across three states: Delaware, Maryland, and the Eastern Shore region. The flat, coastal plain topography means most cabin sites sit at elevations under 50 feet above sea level with sandy soil bases. Winter temperatures typically range from 25-45°F, while summer sees 65-90°F with moderate humidity compared to inland areas.

What to do

Kayaking on Tuckahoe Creek: At Tuckahoe State Park Campground, located about 45 minutes from Seaford, kayaking is accessible from a convenient launch point. "There's a kayak launch between sites 46 and 48. The walk to Tuckahoe Creek from the parking area is very short, and the creek leads to Tuckahoe Lake (no gasoline motors) with more of the creek on the other side of the lake," notes one visitor.

Bird watching at sunrise: Cabin stays at Cape Henlopen State Park Campground put you close to prime birding areas. "There are miles upon miles of walking and biking trails. There are nice play facilities for kids, loads of water and beach access," shares one camper. The park's observation tower provides "beautiful 360 degree views and photo opportunities."

Fishing in stocked ponds: Several cabin locations offer fishing opportunities without leaving the property. "Lots of animals with personality fresh eggs for purchase and good catch and release ponds caught 4 bass in like 20 min big guys," reports a visitor to Adventures Await Retreat, noting the quality of fishing even in small property ponds.

What campers like

Clean bathroom facilities: Martinak State Park Campground receives consistently positive reviews for maintenance. "Campsites and bathrooms are clean. Beautiful waterfront great for kayaking and water sports," writes one camper. The park is about 35 minutes from Seaford and offers cabin options in a wooded setting.

Free amenities beyond cabins: Many appreciate the unexpected free offerings at some parks. "They have quite a few playgrounds throughout the park, which was a major plus for us," notes a visitor to Martinak State Park. At Cape Henlopen, one camper shares: "Free bike rentals are available, some with baby seats and trailers."

Winter cabin comfort: Trap Pond State Park cabins maintain comfortable temperatures even in cold seasons. "This place has been great to us. Even though we are tent camping in the middle of winter we have still made it work. It has great warm bathrooms that are very clean and sanitary they clean them everyday faithfully," reports a winter visitor.

What you should know

Seasonal variation in facilities: At Delaware Seashore State Park Campground, amenities change based on season. "We were there on a Monday the week after Memorial Day and while the sites with the hookups were completely full, there were plenty of empty non-hookup sites," notes one reviewer. The camper store was closed during their off-peak visit.

Advance planning for holidays: Holiday weekends require substantial advance booking at all area cabin locations. "It can get packed and I see that it's hard to book if you don't book early," warns a Cape Henlopen visitor.

Road access considerations: Some cabins have limitations for larger vehicles. "The farm roads around the park are very bumpy," notes a Tuckahoe State Park visitor. At Trap Pond, sites have "an interesting semi-circle pull through layout so backing in not required. They are not level and have a sandy base."

Tips for camping with families

Playground proximity: When booking cabins with children, check playground proximity. At Killens Pond State Park Campground, "This site and the one next to it (site A9) are the closest to the port-a-potties. This does mean that people may walk through or right near your site to get to them, but everyone around us was in an RV and it wasn't an issue. This site is also the closest to the playground."

Educational opportunities: Many parks offer learning experiences alongside cabins. "They have a nature center with lots of little items that I needed. And there was a Little Library," shares a Cape Henlopen visitor. At Trap Pond, a camper notes, "If you have kiddos, try and get a site in Loop A – there is a nice and educational play area."

Junior Ranger programs: Families appreciate structured activities. "If you're looking to learn and explore with your kids, there is an extensive junior ranger program," mentions a Tuckahoe State Park visitor. These programs typically run from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

Tips from RVers

Site levelness planning: Many cabin areas share parking with RV sites, where levelness can be an issue. "Sites are not level and have a sandy base so it took a bit of work to finally get the rig level, even with auto-levelers," notes a Trap Pond visitor. Bring appropriate leveling equipment if traveling with a trailer.

Proximity to water hookups: The convenience of utilities varies by site. "Bathhouses are located in the A and C loops plus additional ones by the tent camping area," reports a Trap Pond visitor. Some cabin areas offer close water access while others require carrying water from central spigots.

Seasonal cleaning schedules: Bathhouses follow predictable cleaning patterns at most parks. "All seemed to be reasonably clean and were cleaned on a rolling basis, starting at 10 am for the A loop," notes a Trap Pond visitor. Plan your shower times accordingly, as hot water may be limited during peak usage.
