Tucked away in a quiet, rural setting, the park is situated in Whaleyville, Maryland, providing a peaceful escape from the bustling crowds of the coastal boardwalks. The surroundings are characterized by the flat coastal plains and dense forests of the Delmarva Peninsula.

Guests can also relax by the sparkling swimming pool or visit the general store for supplies and camping essentials.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
The legendary beaches and three-mile boardwalk of Ocean City are a short drive away, offering endless dining and entertainment. Nature enthusiasts should prioritize a visit to Assateague Island National Seashore, where wild ponies roam among the dunes. Additionally, the historic town of Berlin is nearby, featuring charming antique shops and local breweries. This location allows RVers to enjoy the best of the Eastern Shore, from high-energy coastal attractions to quiet, historic strolls.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is an ideal match for active families who appreciate a variety of on-site activities and easy access to regional attractions.

We enjoy coming to this campground with our camper. The grounds are well maintained and they've made improvements to the campground itself. It's a short distance outside Ocean City (10-15 miles) but that's fine with us.

This is a very nice Campground. We stayed last weekend of September. The park is clean well maintained. We stayed in sites on the lower half down by the lake was nice and quiet.

Nice place, quiet and not too far from ocean city or assateaque island. Stayed in cabin 182. Loved the screened in porch. Bathroom was clean, beds were clean. But I will say the ceiling fan blades needed cleaned which I did myself, not a big deal. But I would say you really ought to get the wall ac unit heads cleaned. Other than that will definitely stay again when back in the area!

We are newer to the RV world but have already stayed at number of RV parks and this was by far our favorite so far. The staff was professional and friendly, the grounds were clean and well maintained, and the overall vibe was one of friendliness and community. Well done, we'll be back.

I originally made a reservation in March of 2024 for October of 2024, but life happened and I need to move it. We moved it to this weekend checking in on Thursday but then found out in February that our youngest son’s graduation was that day so we needed to push it one day more. They were fantastic about it, no issues at all. The campground was clean, peaceful and the staff was very friendly. We did use the mini golf but that was it. A bit too chilly for the pool and waterpark in the other resort. Our dogs enjoyed the dog area. We had a premium back in spot which had plenty of room in the hard surface space for our camper as well as an adjacent hard surface area for the picnic table and stone encirclement fire pit area. We will certainly be back.
