Camping like I've never experienced! Being so close to the ocean was magnificent and we got to see the wild horses up close (but not too close!). This was my six-year-old niece's first time camping and seeing the ocean, and a truly unforgettable experience for us all. We stayed on Oceanside Loop 2 Site 30 during the first week of June and didn't have any issue with mosquitos, which we had been warned about. Locals said that time of year tends to be less buggy than later in the summer. We also enjoyed coffee and breakfast at "5 Tides" one morning-- only a ten minute drive from the site. There was a huge storm one night and our tents stayed up despite the heavy wind. We didn't have any special stakes for camping on sand.

This location is very nice. It's level, and there are bushes/plants as mentioned in other reviews that provide for protection against strong winds. We came on a very cold windy day in March, so the wind was nearly 40 mph. My 2 girls ended up taking cover from the wind by staying in the area protected by the bushes. We cooked vegetable foil packets over the campfire, and cooked steak and mushrooms over our portable stove, and the food turned so delicious. We brought our food over to the little windless spot to eat, otherwise our food would turn cold quickly due to the fierce wind. Our spot was just a short walk to the restroom, but not too close that we felt uncomfortable. We're also right next to the pathway that leads to the beach. It was fun seeing other campers walk by but we also had a good sense of privacy in our spot, despite being next to the public walking path. I like that there are not too many campers in this loop. We could literaly walk to the beach in a minute. It was so awesome. We didn't see any horses at our campsite this trip. But we saw a herd of them on the road next to the visitor center.

The staff was friendly and the campground was peaceful and clean. Will likely come back here again. My family and I had a good time.

This is a well run place with solid infrastructure and the campsites are nice but its still camping so pack what youll need and prepare for bugs that can be especially bad! Been two weeks since we got back n Im still thinking about the ocean :)

Camped in our 25ft motorhome and had Oceanside site 030 which we enjoyed! It sits directly next to the beach access path, and although we thought it might be a problem (people walking back and forth), it was actually not an issue at all. The traffic was minimal and the site is situated far enough and quite private with large sand dunes engulfing it from 2 sides. During our stay, the 2nd half (back part) of the paved back-in driveway was covered in extremely deep sand, so only the front half was suitable for our motorhome. Not a problem for us as we have a short 25ft Class-C, but something to take into account for larger rigs. Horses came by (and through) our loop and campsite day and night several times during our 2-day stay. No shade at the site, but even mid-August it was breezy enough to where we really had no need for the AC to be on in the motorhome. The Oceanfront campground is more busy and crowded than the Bayside one (where we camped for another 3 days). Oceanside is the place to be for sunrise watching (if you can get up early enough), and Bayside - for sunset! We parked our RV and used only bikes to get around. Bike paths lead everywhere around the seashore and were very safe even for our little kids to bike around. Mosquitos? Surprisingly minimal during our stay here (mid-August). Toilets? Primitive, with cold showers. But I doubt anyone's goal is to come here for the park's toilets or showers. The nature is where it is all at - and there is plenty of it! Loved our stay!

Site 030, loop 2. What a gift. Beautiful wide beach. Quiet campground. Not too many horses in November. The stars were spectacular. Just perfect.

We’ve camped the length of both coasts, and Assateague Island National Seashore is our all-time favorite campground! The wild, pristine nature that is protected there continues to renew us, heart and soul, with each yearly visit.

The campground and campsite were very nice, clean and quiet. Access to the beach was easy. There were many hiking and biking trails. The Park check-in staff was courteous and efficient.
