We stayed at this campground July - September 2024. The campground could use some TLC - most of the amenities are run down and they need to put money into the amenities. The sites are large and spacious, but that’s the only thing going for this campground besides the affordability compared to Sun Outdoors in area. The front desk staff generally arent very friendly, they are strict. We’re full time RVers and have been to over 100+ campgrounds so for us to say this.. says a lot and we do Thousand Trails (if you know you know). We called to stay again mid May to mid June 2025 since we have family in area, never received a confirmation email, and called to cancel reservation since we are waiting on our RV to be ready/fixed and it won’t be ready in time. For our month stay, a $500 deposit is required and since we didn’t cancel within 30 days of reservation they weren’t willing to give money back.. we didn’t know this policy since we never got the email. They didn’t send the confirmation to the correct email address, not an error on our end. If you are looking for a very sub par campground, this does the job, but don’t expect much.

I had a great experience in one of the cabins. If only the office staff was more attentive to replying appropriately to voicemails and updating their voicemail greeting, I would give it a 5-star rating.

Adorable little spot with very kind people. We stayed here for Ocean City Bike Week and had a great time. It feels like a little community. They have laundry on site and a general store should you need anything. They were very friendly and the security at the gate always wore a smile. They all seemed to really enjoy being there. Will absolutely stay here again.

We spent the weekend camping at Island Resort Campground in Newark MD. The owners daughter was friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. This is a wonderful family ran campground and affordable. The sites are big and most have a pretty view of their lake. The pool was refreshing. We are new to camping in a travel trailer and this was a perfect place to come. There is full hookup available. We definitely plan to go back. It's within 30 minutes of ocean city Maryland and easy access to the campground and the beach along as assateague island.

We stayed here for a weekend at the end of June. The campground was big, office, store and guard staff were excellent. The pool was nice as well. A few things I would like to see improvements on when we come back are a new playground for the kids. My kids love playgrounds, especially when camping so they couldn't play on the one that was here, and also maybe potentially hire an event staff / food truck for the weekends for weekend activities. Also I see no reason why tents aren't allowed to setup here, as it is beautiful at night, it's got perfect sites for tent camping. Considering the prices are fairly close to a sun outdoors. This place could jack the prices up a little more to pay for those accommodations, which will eventually bring in a more full campground. There is some landscaping that should be done as well along with maintaining the grass on campsites. Come Friday every site should be freshly cut. If some of these things continue to be overlooked, sun outdoors will be knocking on your door soon with an offer, if they haven't already. Overall the stay was okay and there is plenty to do around the area thankfully.

Made a reservation and because of exposure to Covid had to cancel. In trying to do the right thing by not exposing other people we lost our deposit and with it being so late in the season we wouldn’t have the opportunity to use it this year. Asked if we could use it for next season we were told that simply wasn’t their policy. This would have been our first time staying at this campground. Now there won’t be a first or a last. They will never see our business. Far too inflexible for a service business. I definitely would NOT recommend.

Quiet campground. We booked this campground because of the water access from our site. Upon arrival we immediately noticed the weeds grown over (6 ft +) at the edge of 90% of the lake making access to the water from our site not possible. We were expecting waterfront access but got water view instead. Camp store prices are high and there is no cable.

We had a wonderful time at this campground in late summer. We were slightly skeptical of some of the reviews left but are so glad we booked our stay. We were a little disappointed that the bar was closed in the middle of the lake, that was one of the things that drew us to this campground in particular. But it was peaceful, quiet, the pool was amazing and the view from our campsite was wonderful. We stayed in site 30 and I would highly recommend it. This is not a campground that will have many activities planned out for you, but a nice relaxing place to enjoy your time. The staff was super friendly and if we are in the area again we will definitely be rebooking.

Was super nervous after reading the reviews about the staff. But the two women (one in office one in store) were very polite. We didn’t interact with the owner I guess, who most of the negative reviews are about. So we really enjoyed this campground! Nice and quiet at night and very relaxing. Definitely worth the extra $10 a night for the lake view. There was a really nice breeze off the lake at night. Was really close to the beaches and the horses, which is why we went. I am only giving the place 4 stars because the bathhouses were pretty gross. And also weird. A huge room with one shower and a toilet, but a huge campground. We went to shower when there was luckily no line but what happens when everyone needs to use the bathroom or shower? Definitely could use a huge upgrade there. If anything, they need to be cleaned.

So peaceful and relaxing. No WiFi ... a real get away from the world. Just good old fashion camping owned by a private awesome family.
