Oceanfront walk in dune camping is simply magicaladd in ponies and it just doesnt get any better!

@RebeccaK561953 · Camped on Sep 6, 2024 at Campsite #81

I love this park. Our site was clean and right on the beach. We participated in the clamming and crabbing expo with the rangers and loved it. Cant wait to come back next year!

@ShellyP8891682 · Camped on Sep 5, 2024 at Campsite #A13

Love it there!

@NanciM70B02436 · Camped on Sep 4, 2024 at Campsite #C41

Holy cow or should I say horse. They were everywhere. This was our first trip to Assateague and were shocked by the abundance of horses around. It was nice to see fellow travelers giving the horses the appropriate berth. Second acknowledgement is the ample biking available. We spent most of our time travel around on our bikes, which we appreciated.

@HolidayEF780F7 · Camped on Sep 2, 2024 at Campsite #50

W enjoyed how wild and remote it was, but a short drive to restaurants. Everyone told us the bugs would be bad but instead it was very windy and no bugs at all. Make sure you check out the whole island. The bay side is quite different from the ocean. Great breakfast available on site at the 5 tides!

@CharlesB214095 · Camped on Sep 1, 2024 at Campsite #98

A beautiful, special place and one of the true gems of our national parks system. Wait, maybe I shouldn't talk much about the glory of AINS... it's hard enough to get a campsite reservation as it is...

@SylvainL9E3A50 · Camped on Aug 28, 2024 at Campsite #8

Very nice place !

@MarekB80414848 · Camped on Aug 26, 2024 at Campsite #37

Great place to camp. Exploring bay side on kayak is my favorite activity.

@JanieM66DD6FD6 · Camped on Aug 25, 2024 at Campsite #B26

Assateague is a beautiful and peaceful place. Even though the horses are the entertainment and thats why people come. Its so much more to that island. So many things to do. Kayaking, fishing, bike ride and enjoy there trails or just go to the beach everyday. Its always something to do. And so many other animals to see.

@KimF3194839 · Camped on Aug 23, 2024 at Campsite #51

I was glad that you removed the site numbers from the parking spots. It was one more rule to follow and honestly not necessary. I was able to get a spot near my site entrance with no difficulty.The camp host was very friendly and provided rule reminders instead of being aggressive. The whole camping experience was friendly and enjoyable.

@OksanaS7E81EC6 · Camped on Aug 22, 2024 at Campsite #C47

Great time together with kids, with educational opportunities, fun and experience with animals

@JuliannaKDC2FD · Camped on Aug 20, 2024 at Campsite #65

We had a great time camping here! T he water was perfectly still, if a bit cold, and our campsite was right on the beach. We had a great time, loved seeing the horses (even if they managed to steal an unsecured bag of chips), and played for days on the beach. We can't wait to come back.

@Cassandra3B3C0 · Camped on Aug 19, 2024 at Campsite #9

First time camping at Assateague Island & absolutely loved it!!! Went mid August..We camped at Loop one Oceanside site 9 Beautiful sunsets and the horses came and visited throughout the nights. Believe me when I say it, the bugs werent no issue !! We didnt even need bug spray. Restrooms and bathhouse were clean! Definitely recommend camping there 10/10!!

@KimG7907993 · Camped on Aug 18, 2024 at Campsite #73

Be ready to do a lot of carrying if you are camping on the beach. But its worth it!

@KarenK3878935 · Camped on Aug 15, 2024 at Campsite #53

I camped here with my pre-teen kids in August. We love Assateague Island. The beach and bay are beautiful and the kids had a great time boogie boarding in the ocean, and fishing and crabbing in the bay. This campsite is tucked in behind the sand dunes, so disappointingly, we were too low to see the ocean from our campsite. The upside is that it is protected from the wind, so we did not have to worry about our tents blowing away. I never even used the sand stakes I brought. I would recommend this campsite on the shoulder season if it is cold and you want a bit more wind protection while still being on the ocean side. But I would not pick this site again in the summer--it was a long walk in with all our camping gear and the beach wagon did not work in such soft sand, which doesnt seem worth it to me unless I am going to be right on the beach with an ocean view. Also, the bathroom facilities are terrible. It is embarrassing that in 2024 the federal government is not able to do better than pit toilets. The smell was terrible and the whole thing is very unsanitary, with flies living in the pit toilet feeding on feces. My son even got bitten on the butt my horse flies while using the pit toilet. I imagine that must pose some disease risk. That said, we really love Assateague Island and will continue coming, though we will likely stay at the Maryland state park campground in the future.

@RobertB6182770 · Camped on Aug 15, 2024 at Campsite #71

The weather was great. Saw a bunch of horses. Parked on the road and camped on the beach. Had a nice fire in the fire ring. Went swimming in the ocean. I love coming here. We do it three or four times a year. I tell people about it all the time.

@EmilyS1613279 · Camped on Aug 14, 2024 at Campsite #49

We were so pleasantly surprised at the campsite and the interactions with horses! What an amazing campsite, we will be visiting again and again!

@ChantalM627422 · Camped on Aug 14, 2024 at Campsite #A24

Wow Nice Campground with horses! The beach is si beautiful and not a lot people in the campground area compared to the day use section.

@HowardR8337205 · Camped on Aug 13, 2024 at Campsite #53

Shower was a little cold at night but other than that we had a great time.

@Christine45219 · Camped on Aug 12, 2024 at Campsite #63

we had a great weel at Assateague, the weather was great. it was awesome to see the horsed wandering around.we had a great site and really enjoyed our tenting adventure.

@XiaozhenMF19FE · Camped on Aug 12, 2024 at Campsite #55

So nice that we can camp on the beach. The horses were just roaming around. We brought our dog with us, it is great that this area is pet-friendly even in season. Loved our stay, would love to come back soon.

@StevenS1501716 · Camped on Aug 12, 2024 at Campsite #A18

Outstanding! (except for one minor thing)The park is obviously beautiful. I camped in the A loop Bayside camping area. The camp host graciously welcomed my son and I. They were so friendly and helpful. I was concerned about the mosquito/fly situation. While they were present, it wasn't bad at all. The poor horses seemed more bothered by the bugs than the people. My only negative comment is the fact that everytime you leave the main gate of the park and return, you must represent you park pass and driver's license even though you are issued a large, blaze orange, dated window placard denoting your registered camper status. With the long lines at the park entrance to begin with, it would make more sense to have a "fast track" lane for already registered campers. (?) Otherwise a wonderful experience!

@JanetR6F01FCCB · Camped on Aug 11, 2024 at Campsite #27

Had a great time. Weather was good and saw plenty of horses without having to look. Also got to see new colt, approximately 24 hours old. Great neighbors helped us back our, new to us camper, up in the dark. We have been tent camping previously. Also, only saw a few idiots not obeying the rules but rangers were on them pretty quickly.

@Inmaculad5FA8A · Camped on Aug 11, 2024 at Campsite #96

Weather was fantastic

@TinaM2263354 · Camped on Aug 5, 2024 at Campsite #C45

You should not even try to call C45 a site for tents. There is almost no place to set up a tent. It also stinks like the vault toilet and since there really is no place with even smallest distance to the road to put up a tent there is no escaping even some of the odor. It was so bad that even though we arrived just before dusk, we left without even trying to camp. This was a huge disappointment.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@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

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
