Maryland/ Delaware Area

Hi Everyone,

Any suggestions for a July/ August vacation for this area? I heard great things about Castaways but you need to book a year in advance.

Thanks!
  • Assateague State park has some electric hookups. NP has no hookups but allows generators in 2 loops. Kiptopeke State Park is in Va about an hour south on the DelMar Pinninsula. They have full hooks and cable. In both cases it is a short walk to the beach. But anywhere at the shore you need to book months or a year in advance. Everyone wants the weekends. But if you book from Sunday to Thursday you can sometimes find a site especially in spring or fall. We love September at the shore. Fewer people and easier to book a site.
  • What are you looking for? Beach or sightseeing & kayaking?

    The big demand is in the beach areas. In the center of the DELMARVA the pickings are much easier. We are based near Easton & Martinak SP in Denton is sort of a home park for us. Quiet & great kayaking if that is your thing. Attractions like St Michaels are not too very far away.
  • Delaware Seashore State Park, either the North side OR South side. Although your looking around a Holiday, they book up 7 months in advance...
  • What type of things are you looking for? Castaways is a resort type park. Massey's Landing is up in Delaware, its right on the Rehoboth Bay, but it requires a drive to the beach. That's a resort park.
