Assateague State Park

I just cancelled an electric site for this weekend Thurs thru Sun. I'm sure the weather forecast will now change from 80% rain to 0%. Hopefully someone can use the site.
  • One of mine and the kids favorates also. Too bad it's a 250 mile ride for me, I'd go more often.

    We spent a few days at Castaways in Berlin, md.. About 4 weeks ago. It had all the amenities and was only a few minutes drive from Assateague state and national parks.. We got to see the ponies, and except for a bit of rain had a great time... Definitely going back again..

    We've heard all good thing about Castaways, and we are bringing our Pup for his first birthday to Bark Beach. Got a site at Island Oasis section close to the beach and pier.....hopefully not a mistake. I've been told to take the Garden State, and also told to take NJ Turnpike.....any recommendations as to which is best ?

    From CT, we did the Tappan Zee bridge to the GSP, then at Woodbridge pick up the Tpke to I-195 to I-295, I-95 (the Tpke) and I-295 both go to the Del Mem Bridge, so you'll save on tolls going over to 295, and it's a nicer road.

    US13/US113 through Deleware and Maryland is an ok ride but US 1 is better. There was a detour around some railroad crossing on 13 a few weeks ago. If you stay on US 1 to 9/404, you'll get around it.

    We just got home yesterday afternoon. Great Campground and great Weather. There were some areas of construction I believe it was the Turnpike.....Lane Shifts and narrow lanes with cement barriers....6 hour trip for us.
