Staff and volunteers were very friendly and helpful, as usual. We brought our canoe and harvested mussels for a great seafood dinner. We choose the bayside campground this year because the ocean side was very windy last year. The horses were very active, you can spend hours watching them. We visit yearly and will again.

The island is beautiful. Having the horses walk thru your site is

Very pleased with access to Assateague campsites, support, staff, and facilities,

@LayneR22762DA2 · Camped on Apr 20, 2026 at Campsite #14

Sites on the Oceanside loop have easy access to the beach and the wild horses enjoy visiting the camp sites in the morning. Definitely keep all food securely stored at all times. Lovely place to disconnect and just be.

@AndrewS4701634 · Camped on Apr 20, 2026 at Campsite #27

Magical place!

@JonathanG61769 · Camped on Apr 19, 2026 at Campsite #C41

Gorgeous wildlife, lovely camp hosts and NPS staff. Peaceful & dramatic all at once.

@leroyC7472660 · Camped on Apr 19, 2026 at Campsite #A7

It would be an improvement to have a walking path to the beach from the Bayside campground so that you don't have to walk in the road.

We LOVE camping here! The setting is beautiful, and the horses are troublemakers but fun to watch. One criticism I have is that most of the picnic tables have at least one storage door that's broken. So be sure to bring bungee cords or something heavy to block them with. And - while the storage spaces under the tables are generally horse-proof, they are NOT raccoon-proof. I woke up to raccoons crawling right through the gaps in the sides of the table and opening our bags and coolers. So if you have anything that a raccoon could possibly open, store it in your car overnight.

Great experience. Kids had a great time. Temperature was so so. Wind was a bit rough but overall a great time. Bathroom could have been cleaner.

The stars were beautiful

@MatthewC862969 · Camped on Apr 17, 2026 at Campsite #A11

Bay and beach water was crisp and clean. Kayaking was super interesting, able to view horses all around the salt marsh.Nighttime stars were magnificent. Long walk along the beach was refreshing. +1

@AndrewR3887527 · Camped on Apr 16, 2026 at Campsite #C46

Really loved camping here. Seeing the wild horses is such a cool experience, especially when they walk through you campsite at 5 am! Only downside at site c46 everyone wanting to walk through your site to get to the bay beach

@THOMASF4323684 · Camped on Apr 15, 2026 at Campsite #36

Loved it!

@CraigW8574706 · Camped on Apr 14, 2026 at Campsite #A18

Nice campground. Only complaint was that it had pit toilets and cold showers. Otherwise it was great

@TavaJ97B9DEBBC · Camped on Apr 13, 2026 at Campsite #C48

We stayed at Bayside C48. What a beautiful spot! Excellent views and close to the bay for a kayak. I will definitely stay again and bring my bike and kayak. The only down side was that the ticks were active as we cleaned up our tent site, and the possum are not deterred by the locking tables. We thought our table locked on both sides, they knew differently. Dinner was on us one night,lol. Can't wait to try it in the fall/winter. Overall an excellent trip.

@Erinc6378035 · Camped on Apr 13, 2026 at Campsite #37

I made a spontaneous decision to visit and I am so glad I did. It was gorgeous. Peaceful. So wonderful. The beach. The dunes. The sunrise. The ponies. The friendliness of the staff. It was just incredible!

@whitet284DEA78 · Camped on Apr 13, 2026 at Campsite #B36

Beautiful area, the ponies were everywhere the campsite area was beautiful as well.

@WinifredCF797A · Camped on Apr 12, 2026 at Campsite #B37

I almost hate to post a review because I would like to keep this very special place a secret! However, it is by far our favorite place to camp. The setting is spectacular with pristine beaches, dunes and biking trails. A great place to kayak, paddleboard, bring your kids and your dog.

@ClaudiaM911D2C · Camped on Apr 12, 2026 at Campsite #B30

I always love going there is our favorite spot for camping the only issue we had this time was that it look they went with tractor and left the ground uneven

@SandinoB6B5C5B · Camped on Apr 12, 2026 at Campsite #58

the staff is amazing and the park in general is really good, we had a good time.

@ROBM7319577 · Camped on Apr 12, 2026 at Campsite #6

Was surprised by how lovely the oceanside campsites near the dunes were. Bayside was nice and quiet, less windy but more buggy. Still lovely. Swam in the bay in April!

@KelleyDBFB451E · Camped on Apr 12, 2026 at Campsite #B29

One of my favorite parks. I return here year after year. The upgrades to the shower and toilet areas are much appreciated, though a sink with running water would be appreciated.

@MichaelR189137 · Camped on Apr 11, 2026 at Campsite #B36

Love the ocean and bay areas, the hiking trails and the horses. We visited Delaware Botanic Gardens which was about 45 minutes away and it was beautiful. Also had a great lunch in Berlin at Rayne's soda fountain.

@JanaeD5687009 · Camped on Apr 11, 2026 at Campsite #74

We truly enjoyed out weekend at site 74. It was very windy during set up, make sure you check the forecast! Horses did come into our camp at night, which was super cool. The park was very clean and a great space to spend our time. We will definitely be back!

@ChazInSoCal - CA

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
