Recommendations for asateague island

Assateague state park in Md I've heard is nice never stayed there Dont think it has any electric sites. Maddox family CG I heard was bought out and is now a KOA and has shown signs of improvement. If your a vet you could also check on Bares Beach up in De. National guard facility.

Assateague State Park on the MD end has one loop with electric. Otherwise no hookups. National Park, also on the MD end is no hookup camping. There is no camping on the southern end of Assateague (VA). Plenty of camping on Chincoteague Island which is a short trip across a bridge from Assateague Island.

I had site 14 at the Seashore and it was pretty huge. I had a good 20ft in front of my 40ft fifth wheel and nobody to the rear and it's about 25 yards to the boardwalk.

There are a few electric sites at Assateaque state park however its very tough to get a electric site due to demand. I'm sure it's book for this summer. Your best bet is late fall or early in the Spring. Getting a site during peak season is almost impossible.

I believe it is 50 sites out of about 310 in Maryland state park side that have electric. They do allow generators, but I didn't bring mine last August because it is a loud contractor type.

I love my airconditioning, but the steady ocean breeze as well as awning open and two pop up canopies made for a great trip

Modern bathrooms with showers near all sites

We stayed in the National Park on the bayside. We had a great site with a tree and direct access to the bay and about 150ft from the dump station and water.We were in a generator loop.I believe it was loop C. Make sure you take advantage of the National park ranger demonstrations and talks.

Treat the ponies the same as you would bears. They will tear apart your unattended site in search of food.

There are 30 electric sites in the state park. We stayed at one 2 years ago, it was absolutely phenomenal.

If you plan on going in the summer, all of the sites open for booking for the entire month at the same time months in advance. And all of the sites are booked within 2 minutes of opening. I got one. No option of site choice or even the week I wanted, but it still felt like I won the lottery.

There is a 12 month window on Assateague State park reservations, and most of the roughly 3 dozen electric sites go as soon as the window opens, especially between May and September. If you can get one, it is well worth it. Incidentally, anyone 62 or over can get a pass good for half price camping during the week at any Maryland state park, even if you're not a Maryland resident. Lifetime senior passes are only $10.

The visit won't be until late September. Hopefully we can get a spot close to the beach.
