Island Resort Park
Overview
Island Resort Park offers a tranquil escape for RVers seeking a natural setting within reach of Maryland’s coastline. Spread across sixty acres of lush landscape, this destination is defined by its stocked fishing lakes and serene atmosphere. It functions as a seasonal retreat where visitors can trade the bustle of the boardwalk for quiet evenings by the water, providing a balanced coastal experience for those exploring the Delmarva Peninsula.
Location & Surroundings
Nestled in Newark, MD, the park is strategically positioned away from the heavy traffic of coastal highways while remaining just a short drive from the Atlantic. The surrounding landscape features winding country roads and agricultural vistas characteristic of Worcester County. Its location serves as a peaceful gateway to the coastal bays, offering a quiet home base for travelers who want to explore both the mainland and the nearby barrier islands.
Amenities & Park Features
The park is designed with convenience in mind, offering spacious sites equipped with full hookups to accommodate various RV sizes. On-site facilities include an Olympic-sized swimming pool, multiple bathhouses, and laundry services. For recreation, guests enjoy two private lakes perfect for catch-and-release fishing or simply relaxing by the shore. The property also features well-maintained nature trails that allow for peaceful morning walks through the wooded areas surrounding the campsites.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Adventure is never far away, as the park sits approximately fifteen minutes from the famous Assateague Island National Seashore, known for its wild horses and pristine beaches. Visitors can also spend the day at the lively Ocean City Boardwalk or explore the historic charm of downtown Berlin. For nature enthusiasts, the nearby Pocomoke River State Park offers excellent opportunities for kayaking and birdwatching, making this a central hub for diverse regional activities.
Who This Park Is Best For
This resort is ideal for families and couples who prefer a quieter camping environment without sacrificing proximity to major tourist destinations. It caters well to retirees and nature lovers who appreciate a park-like setting with plenty of space to breathe. Because it provides a calm alternative to beachfront crowds, it is best suited for those who enjoy a mix of self-contained RV living and day trips to Maryland’s premier seaside attractions.

Just like to post a big thank you to the island Resort family for the great service we got this morning. Upon leaving we found we had a flat tire. We called the office asking for help and she yes, sure they’ll be right out. They were there within 5 minutes and we were on the road in a half hour!!! We love Island Resort and camp there a couple three times a year. So thank you to the two gentlemen and the lady in the office!

We love this campground! We've been coming here for the past 10 years and love how peaceful and quiet it is. Whether we're on the lake or in the section over by the store we always enjoy our stay.

This is our 2nd year staying here with an RV that does have its own bathroom. The sites are enormous and relatively level and the lake is beautiful. We enjoyed the pool last year. I do think it would be nice if they updated the playground but we come here basically to sleep and go to the beach each day so it’s not really essential to us. It’s a bare bones RV campground but you can’t beat the price or location and we have had no issues with service any time we have called or stopped in to the store. It is quiet and so peaceful, and we have not had any issues with biting insects on either trip in early August. A side note— every other campground close to here is now owned by Sun Outdoors. They crank the prices and have a two dog limit. We have 3 small dogs (less than 25 lbs total) and it’s nice to not have to worry about having them all sitting outside with us here. We really appreciate that.

We have been going to Island Resort Campground for the past 4 years and love it!! If you are looking for a restful, relaxing campground then this is the place for you!! We love staying right on the lake with the ability to fish right from our campsite, or we can walk across the road to fish at the pond. We love the laid back atmosphere of the campground. The sites are spacious with plenty of room for your camper, vehicle, golf cart/bikes, etc. They have a nice little store that is stocked with things you may need or run out of in a pinch as well as individual ice cream choices, which was perfect for eating while riding in our golfcart around the campground. We enjoyed the pool several times while we were there but spent most of our time directly at our campsite enjoying the view. We look forward to our time at Island Resort Campground every year and can't wait to be back!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway. The cabin we stayed in was really cute! Perfect for a couple but also had bunk beds for a couple friends or kids to come along. Fishing was great! I personally used to come here a lot with my family before covid, we used to stay in a camper along the lake and had many week long vacations, we even had thanksgiving here one year! The view is beautiful! This campground is quiet, peaceful, and just a short drive away from Ocean City. The staff were very nice and the store had everything we needed. I’m happy I made the trip back to this place now that im older. This campground is so nostalgic to me personally, and I will definitely be back soon to create more memories here!
