Pleasant Valley Family Campground

While we needed to be in the area, we selected this campground for its lake access. Come to find out that it’s a shared pay-public beach also. All day, every day, we had folks jumping the fence near our site to sneak into the campground so they wouldn’t have to pay. Sympathetic with the owners. Bathrooms and showers were very dirty and only got cleaned on the weekend—had lock code to keep public out. Not much privacy between sites, very dusty and rutty roads. No internet available and poor cellphone reception. Dogs allowed in campground, but are not allowed in lake—even on dog beach.

Very clean! Mostly seasonal residents with new and properly maintained sites. Very friendly, as almost everyone waved when we went by. Pool was open and monitored. Office staff was so nice. We had site 217 in the back. Was difficult to pull in to but the lot size was big. Lots of mosquitos tho-I was eaten up so bring repellent! Very private and quiet place. They have rules in place and it seems everyone follows them. No loud music or partying all night here. 25-30 mins to ocean city boardwalk.
