The site was private and beautiful. Steps from the bay, and the bathroom. I would go again in the Summer, but it was nice in late November, when it was quiet.

Beautiful and clean

Very peaceful stay, saw horses everyday walking on beach is really nice and biking through the park is fun

We reserved a campsite Bayside because that was the only campground accepting reservations. When we checked in, we requested an oceanside first come first served site. The park ranger quickly changed our reservation for no additional fee. The campsite was perfect! We parked our Teardrop and enjoyed a beautiful sunset. The clouds rolled in and the night was extremely dark, no light pollution except for a slight glow in the north from Ocean City. When the clouds cleared, the stars were absolutely breathtaking! The sunrise over the waves was also incredibly beautiful. Although it was breezy and cold, the fire in the firepit kept us warm outside. The Teardrop was plenty warm without the heater. Our campsite was just across the driveway from the vault toilets. We appreciated the convenience. The toilets were well stocked and clean. We needed our lanterns because there were no lights near the toilets. We greatly appreciated the preservation of the darkness! The wild ponies were not the only wildlife. We saw lots of seagulls, wrens, sparrows, warblers, ducks, and heron. We saw only a few people. Late November is a great time to visit Assateaque Island!

OSV. You've got to four-wheel across the beach. And see the sunrise.

Nearly had the park to ourselves. No one else kayaking on the bay. Wonderful.

Very nice campsites.

@AmyC3583814 · Camped on Nov 7, 2025 at Campsite #C49

Assateague is a must visit if you want to connect with nature.The parks are beautiful and camping next to the ocean and bay is as relaxing as it gets.

@ShodoS109084FD · Camped on Nov 5, 2025 at Campsite #7

I already gave a rating of site 18 and some other aspects. I never went to site 7, but did go to Bayside Loop C 42. The site was very small, and would not have been acceptable if I had put up my tent. But I was sleeping in my car, and enjoyed social visits with neighbors and really liked the lack of wind and sand. I missed watching sunrise and moonrise over the ocean, though.

@DavidT5110185 · Camped on Nov 4, 2025 at Campsite #30

Such a lovely spot. I was blessed with wonderful weather in early November, and watching the beautiful sunset and a beautiful sunrise, accompanied by the sound of the breaking waves was a really special treat.

@SandyC7620818 · Camped on Nov 4, 2025 at Campsite #9

What a wonderful camping experience! Our camp hosts were so kind and thoughtful. Seeing the horses made our stay even better - we cannot wait to come back!

@JenniferC92685 · Camped on Nov 3, 2025 at Campsite #14

Perfect

Beautiful campground

@JamesL2887084 · Camped on Nov 2, 2025 at Campsite #C42

OSV was closed and that pretty much ruined the trip

@SuzanneT88AD42 · Camped on Nov 2, 2025 at Campsite #36

The beauty and peace of Assateague is unparalleled. We appreciate the park rangers and staff who work so hard to keep it a friendly and pristine place to enjoy.

@GregB6149905 · Camped on Nov 1, 2025 at Campsite #30

Great location.

@KathiePCDF44AD · Camped on Oct 31, 2025 at Campsite #B37

I had a lovely time. Trails were beautiful.

@CarolynD398550 · Camped on Oct 26, 2025 at Campsite #B35

I have stayed at this park a number of times (always in Loop B Bayside) and love that these sites are a good distance apart, affording privacy. Ponies were in the parking lot right next to the entrance to the park - at least 10 of them! Got great pics!

@SandyPC4025FB5 · Camped on Oct 24, 2025 at Campsite #C47

This is a fantastic place especially with wild horses wandering all over. There are so many wonderful things to do such as walk the 30 mile long beach, walk the wonderful board walks built for viewing arears, paddle the bay, or go to the ocean. We have visited 4 years in a row, the first 4 years ago after I read an article about Assateague and told my husband we were going there right now which was December.

@WilliamJ242827 · Camped on Oct 24, 2025 at Campsite #C46

nice level camp sites, good 5G, and horses everywhere. This also means that there is horse manure everywhere. During the shut down it may not have been picked up for a week or two

@VivH61F28C8850 · Camped on Oct 24, 2025 at Campsite #15

Assateagues campgrounds were wind-swept and some sites under water this past week. Fortunately, we changed our reservation on-line to avoid too much of both conditions; but it wound up costing us $10/ day to do that when we did.

@DelaneyWB9706B · Camped on Oct 23, 2025 at Campsite #17

We stayed at site 17 in ocean loop one. The site was okay. The table and firepit were a pretty good distance from where you park your car. Normally that wouldnt be an issue bc you are closer in the dunes and away from the road but we use a truck tent so it was just annoying for us to tie the dogs that far away while we packed. The biggest thing I think that affected our stay is that this site backs up to the group camping site and whoever was there had a group of like 10 kids from probably 11-5 years old. They did not watch them whatsoever. Their kids constantly came in our camp and harassed our dogs. We asked them multiple times to stop because our dogs would be barking (taunted by the kids barking at them). We also had a horse in our camp which was a pleasant surprise. Except the unmonitored kids, hid behind the bush it was eating and jumped out and yelled at it. Within touching distance. I lost it and explained how dangerous that is in not the kindest tone. Everything else was okay. The govt shutdown made it so we were unable to check in but also free to get in. When we arrived, someone was in our spot. I think they were just scoping it out hoping no one would show up. It was beautiful weekend. I just wish parents would watch their kids around wild animals and make sure they arent wandering into other camps and harassing their pets. We will be back, but we will choose our site a little better (:

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado
