- pennysmom09ExplorerWe've camped at Castaways a couple of times off season. It's a really nice CG, and has a nice play area for kids. There is a pool and a small beach. Ocean City Boardwalk is fairly close, but you would have to drive there. We would never go there in the summer.....they are incredibly expensive.
- MisssmbExplorerThank you! They told me they have a shuttle that runs 6 times a day. They also have cab numbers listed on their site, so I suppose we could use that too. We are Jersey Shore people but just looking to try somewhere new in the off season for a long weekend, but enjoy our dinners out.
- pennysmom09ExplorerI would also add that until Memorial Day, many restaurants are only open on weekends. There are plenty of them though.

In that case I am sure you would have a great time. You can see the ponies at Assategue right across the water from the park. - univmdExplorerWe just came back from Castaways, opening weekend, second night was free. Otherwise the resort is too expensive. Frontiertown is 5 minutes away, second night free, month of April. All other times, DE Seashore State Park, 40 minutes away, is the best deal.
- buckyExplorer IICastaways has changed hands, so expect rates to climb again. Sites are small, but hey, it's the beach.
- MisssmbExplorerThanks all! Right now my main concern is just being able to be able to go out without a toad.

If you plan on using their shuttle, I would double check with them about the shuttle running 6 times a day in the off season. - VeebyesExplorer IIThe rack rate for Castaways is very expensive. Not in our budget range nor do we need all of the things that come with the CG.
We have been there a few times in September for a bluegrass festival. That was good.
