campgrounds near Assateague

I am considering a summer position at the Assateague Island National Seashore and will be traveling with my wife in a 35 ft fifth wheel RV. Any suggestions for long-term stay in driving distance to Berlin, MD?

Thanks
  • Island Resort Campground

    If you cant get a site on Assateague, this is your best bet from a private CG. By far, less expensive than the big 3 and very nice. It is located in Newark, only a few miles from Atlantic General Hospital and Berlin. Probably a 15 minute drive to Assateague.
  • The host sites have w/e at the National Seashore if that is what your position will be.
    Fort Whaley would be your best bet price wise, a half hour to the park from there. The park is not actually in Berlin BTW. This is a resort area, there are not any bargains here anywhere near the beach in season.
  • Can't you stay in the park? There sue won't be anything cheaper in the area.In fact some of them will be real expensive in the summer.
  • Frontiertown
    Fort Whaley (sister CG to Frontiertown)
    Castaways
    Island Resort Family Campground & RV Park
    Roaring Point Waterfront Campground
  • Castaways is maybe the closest. There is the CG in the park but it is dry camping. The SP has services but limits on time.
