    Several RV campgrounds near Girdletree serve the Ocean City and Assateague Island area, including Sun Outdoors Frontier Town in Berlin with full hookups for large motorhomes. Sun Outdoors Ocean City offers premium RV sites with water, electric, and sewer connections, while Tall Pines Harbor KOA Holiday accommodates big rigs with 50-amp service and sewer hookups. Pocomoke River State Park's Shad Landing Campground provides more rustic RV camping with 30-amp electric hookups but no water or sewer at individual sites. The sites at most commercial parks are closely spaced, particularly during peak season. "Sites are a little close together, especially if you have an RV but great 1st time experience with our kids at a young age!"

    Most RV parks in the region operate seasonally, with limited availability from November through March. Treasure Beach RV Park operates from late April to late October with 163 sites offering both 30-amp and 50-amp service. Dump stations are available at most parks, though Shad Landing offers a filling station near its dump facility that can be difficult to locate. According to one visitor, "Acorn Trail and Deer Run have electric. Water spigots were difficult to find in our loop but there's a filling station near the sewer dump." Advance reservations are essential during summer months, particularly for weekend stays between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Many parks offer shuttle service to nearby beaches, with some providing on-site amenities like pools, restaurants, and camp stores. Pet policies vary by location, with restrictions on certain trails and beach areas at Assateague Island.

      Assateague State Park Campground

      My happy place!

      This place is so special! The beaches are so peaceful, you can ride bikes, kayak, and the park also offers activities through the spring and summer — even Yoga on the beach! The spaces are large, the bathrooms are very clean. It is safe and quiet. There are wild horses, and you have to be mindful of how you store your food but it is fun to watch them. There is something so exciting when you come over the bridge to the Island and see the marshes and dunes. Plenty of restaurants and other things to do in the area, but we often don’t want to leave once we are there! We do like to go to Berlin Md once while there. 410 Social is a great place. Anyway you can’t beat the sunrises and sunsets at Assateague. It’s not easy to get a reservation, but don’t give up, it’s worth it!

      Assateague State Park Campground

      Lovely but

      It is a big, busy campground with only two loops with electric hookups. There is no shade. You are steps from the beach and at many sites can hear the ocean at night. The horses can be a menace and will raid campsites. There are sites of many sizes and some pull- throughs. It's nice but very weather dependent.

      Delaware Seashore State Park Campground

      Fin beach trip

      Pretty easy camping trip, plenty of room to set up camp. Level spots. We stayed on south inlet campground. They have small camp store multiple laundry and bath houses. Great stay if you enjoy fishing, as. You can fish the inlet at the campground. They have a very nice playground for kids as well! Only negative is no camp fires allowed, they do have a community area you can have a camp fires allowed. Also no wifi

      Milburn Landing Campground

      Lovely campground with shaded campsites

      Spacious sites among tall mature trees. No undergrowth to provide privacy between sites. I reserved a site online this morning, but site said "available" when I arrived, so don't count on reservation being updated same-day. Sign at Park entrance says no alcohol allowed without permit. Pets allowed.

      ⚠️ Think Twice Before Booking— Our Family Felt Targeted and Intimidated

       I am writing this review because I genuinely want to warn other families before they book this campground. What should have been a relaxing camping trip turned into an extremely upsetting experience for our family. From the beginning, we felt singled out and unwelcome. We arrived at our campsite and then went to the office. We did not know that the campground required every guest to go to the office before going to their site. This was an honest misunderstanding. Instead of simply explaining the rule and moving on, the situation became unnecessarily confrontational, and we felt like the staff was looking for reasons to have an issue with us. What was especially upsetting was how our children were treated. Our children were riding scooters and were stopped and told that scooters were not allowed. We were extremely confused because we could clearly see much younger children riding/driving around the campground. Our 14-year-old was not allowed to do so, while we observed significantly younger white children being allowed to ride. What made this even worse was the way our children were spoken to. They came running back to us scared and intimidated by the interaction. As parents, that was extremely upsetting to see. There is a huge difference between calmly explaining a campground rule to a child and speaking to a child in a way that makes them feel frightened. If there is a rule that scooters are not allowed, then the rule should be applied consistently to every child, regardless of age or background. What we witnessed did not feel consistent. As the experience continued, we felt increasingly targeted. We were left with the strong impression that they did not want our family there. At one point, it honestly felt like they were trying to find reasons to get rid of us, which made us question whether the campground had overbooked and was looking for a way to push us out. We also had a very concerning experience regarding payment. We were forced to pay in cash and were not provided with a receipt. As paying guests, we found this extremely troubling and unprofessional. The entire experience left our family feeling uncomfortable, intimidated, and unwelcome. Camping with children should be about relaxing, enjoying the outdoors, and making good memories—not having your children come running back to you because they are scared of how an adult spoke to them. I cannot speak to anyone else's intentions, but**based on what we personally experienced and witnessed, we felt that our family was being treated differently because of our background. Seeing younger white children being allowed to do something that our children were stopped from doing made the situation even more concerning.I strongly recommend that families think twice before booking this campground. If you do decide to stay, make sure you understand every rule before arriving, document your interactions, and keep proof of every payment. We are sharing this review because other families deserve to know what our experience was like before spending their money and vacation time here. No family should leave a campground feeling intimidated, targeted, or unwelcome.

      Delaware Seashore State Park Campground

      DE Seashore State Park: Crowded, but water activities everywhere!

      Enjoyed the stay here June 19-21, 2026, in the tents-only section at a campground just 10 minutes from home. I've lived near this campground for 45 of my 66 years but never camped there. 

      The cramped campsites always turned me off but my wife and I decided to try it as a test run when we bought all new camping gear after not camping for 15 years(well, except for the 40-year-old Coleman stove that still works). 

      The campsites are tight and strictly BYOS(Bring Your Own Shade). The weather cooperated with temps in the low 80s and cool westerly winds. Because this campground sits adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean, Indian River Inlet and Indian River Bay, it fills up on weekends for camping, beach-going, fishing, kayaking and other water activities. I'd suggest going weekdays if you can. 

      Even with all the people, though, it was mostly quiet. The traffic from the Indian River Inlet bridge didn't bother me much but it did keep my wife up the first night. The bridge lights up at night and looks most spectacular at sunrise. 

      We ate dinner at camp the first night and then went to the inlet walkway to watch the sun set. The sunsets over the Indian River Bay, serenaded by the U.S. Coast Guard station's bugle calls with the lowering of the colors at its station at the north side campground, are a must. We also got to see a green heron foraging on the rockpiles and a dolphin swimming through the inlet. Fishermen lined the walkway to add to the atmosphere. 

      The next morning we drove over to the north side of the inlet to the Burton's Island trail-- another first for me. The trail was probably a mile or so and took about an hour, though it looked like we could have gone further into the brush had we not been wearing shorts and t-shirts. We came across a horseshoe crab traveling along a dirt path and a turtle trying to hide itself under downed tree branches. Blue water surrounded us in the marshes. 

      An excellent dinner at Matt's Fish House capped off our anniversary and we returned to the campground to watch the sunset again. 

      The bathrooms were well-placed. They were mostly clean but the five-second" Navy shower" intervals in the showers were annoying. There's no water or electric at the tent sites but a high-powered community water tap works for cleaning dishes. 

      The ban on open fires at the campground did disappoint. There is a community fire pit but no one used it our two nights there. 

      Oh, I can't forget the Diamondback turtles. Be careful driving so you don't hit them as they wander through the campground. We saw several lay eggs on the sand volleyball court and one scurried through our campsite and under our picnic table on its way to points unknown. The picnic table at each site is heavy but movable. 

      The people were friendly even in such crowded conditions. Lots of kids on bikes, skateboards and scooters and at the playground. Basically, you don't come here as much for the camping as you do for the water sports and activities. 

      As a tent camper, I'd opt for the tent-only loops versus the Standard sites that accommodate tents and small RVs and popups. Our tent-only loops looked less congested than the Standard sites. 

      I'd give this campground 4.5 stars. It would be an easy 5 if not for the crowded conditions.

      Sun Outdoors Frontier Town

      Amazing family place!

      We have stayed here twice and have our 3rd trip booked and we absolutely love it! The lazy river and kiddy water slide park is amazing and our kids love it!

    Guide to Girdletree

    Campgrounds in the Girdletree area offer diverse options across Maryland's Eastern Shore, with most operating from spring through early fall. The area sits on flat coastal plains with elevations under 50 feet above sea level and experiences humid summers with moderate winters. Waterfront camping near Girdletree provides access to both the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Ocean within a 30-mile radius.

    What to do

    Crabbing and fishing opportunities: At Treasure Beach RV Park & Campground, guests enjoy fishing in stocked lakes and crabbing from dedicated areas. "Our kids had the opportunity to meet and interact with other kids, forming new friendships. Additionally, the staff members were attentive, helpful, and always ready to assist with any questions or concerns," reports Jason G.

    Kayaking and canoeing: The waterways around Pocomoke River State Park's Shad Landing Campground provide excellent paddling routes. "There is a nice dock and looks like a great place to canoe/kayak," notes Richie R. The park features "a boat ramp for access along the river, and also canoe rentals."

    Wildlife viewing: Assateague Island offers opportunities to see wild horses. "We took a ride over to the ocean camp sites and found some horses!" shares Deanna G. from her stay at Bayside Assateague Campground. The island provides a unique ecosystem where wildlife viewing becomes part of the camping experience.

    What campers like

    Entertainment options: Sun Outdoors Frontier Town receives high marks for its diverse activities. "This campground is the best campground I've seen for kids. They have a water park that is included in your stay. The activities are great and you're only minutes away from Ocean City or Assateague State Park where the ponies run wild," explains Dawn T.

    Beach access: Sun Outdoors Ocean City provides direct beach access right on the property. "What a great visit we are having. Beautiful location with lots of space for everyone. Great beach and tiki bar. Pools for the family and very pet friendly," shares Julie F. who stayed in a big rig site.

    Camp amenities: Tall Pines Harbor KOA Holiday provides numerous facilities. "This campground is very family friendly. There was plenty to do, friendly campers and we enjoyed our entire stay there. They have events throughout the year and the Saturday night we were there a DJ at the beach," notes Amy R.

    What you should know

    Bug preparedness: When visiting Bayside Assateague Campground, insect protection is essential. "Love this place but be prepared for the bugs. Even enjoyed this in the winter," mentions Michael W. Mosquitoes can be particularly intense during summer months, with some campers reporting significant challenges.

    Terrain conditions: Many campsites in the region can become waterlogged after rain. "It had rained just before getting there. A few sites were flooded but most were okay," reports Matt B. about Shad Landing Campground. Similarly, at Tall Pines Harbor KOA Holiday, some campers note that "middle ones were swampy with almost no space outside with sitting water on sites."

    Wildlife interactions: At Assateague, wild horses create unique challenges. "A small herd of them (around 8) decided to hangout in our campsite waiting for their meal. This meant we couldn't get ours," explains Wendy W. Proper food storage in designated containers is mandatory to prevent problematic wildlife encounters.

    Tips for camping with families

    Age-appropriate campgrounds: Sun Outdoors Ocean City Gateway provides excellent family programming. "The main pavilion has rentals for recreational equipment at no extra cost (hula hoops, balls, etc.) There are also themed weekends and scheduled activities throughout the week!" notes Randi J.

    Swimming options: Most commercial campgrounds offer pool access. "The pool was a big hit with our kids, who spent hours each day swimming and making new friends. Additionally, the early morning kayaking allowed the kiddos to explore the safe, surrounding waters," shares Jason G. about his experience at Treasure Beach RV Park.

    Educational opportunities: Several campgrounds include nature centers with programming for children. "When not blocked by pandemic proposals, the nature center is a hub of educational activity and some great ranger programs," explains Bill G. about Shad Landing Campground.

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection: At Tall Pines Harbor KOA Holiday, site spacing varies considerably. "The pull-through sites are long and nicely spaced. It's unnecessary, but rent a golf cart to get around the huge campground; it's great for going from your site to the pool, arcade, beach, or fishing pier," suggests Greg S.

    Utility planning: RV sites near Girdletree, Maryland often have limited utilities. "Acorn Trail and Deer Run have electric. Now water or sewer hookups but there is a dump station at park entrance with a water fillup spot," explains Jason B. about Shad Landing. Sites for larger rigs may be limited, with Jason noting "Anything over 35' in my opinion will be hard to get into sites."

    Off-season advantages: Virginia Landing RV campground offers peaceful camping outside peak periods. "We loved this campground. We were in site 317 with full hookups. We missed the shade a lot, but the evening breeze off the bay made up for it," shares Angelica K.
