Delaware offers vacationers miles of discoveries, like cleanest-in-the-nation beaches, opulent du Pont family mansions and the opportunity to shop sales-tax-free. Size and location also work to Delaware’s advantage. Within a few hours’ drive, visitors can stroll through quaint Colonial-era towns, savor full-flavored culinary adventures without the big-city prices, or cheer their favorite band at the annual Firefly Music Festival.

Good Rv Park Near Rehoboth Beach

Reviewed By Anne O

We were here for a few days in April, so we couldn't take advantage of the warm weather activities. There's plenty to do with 2 pools, a beach, kayak rental, batting cage, arcade room, playground, fitness center and onsite restaurant. Our RV lot was gravel and level. I like that they have a strict leash policy for dogs.

Delaware Seashore State Park

Best Beach Experience and Great For Fishing (No Lifeguards Though)

Reviewed By Luci_J_M

When we stay in Dewey or Rehoboth we really enjoy spending time at the Delaware Seashore State Park Beach that is near the inlet. The cost is $5 for DE state residents and $10 for out of state. We are out of state and you can buy a 3 admission entry for $25 but you have to do that at the Lifesaving Station site up the road toward Dewey. We really enjoy the beach here because it is wider than those at Dewey and Rehoboth. Also, my husband and sons like to fish, which they can do into the inlet by the rocks even when the beach is at capacity. You can fish into the surf after the beach clears out later in the day. It's a lovely beach, but if you have small children you have to watch them like a hawk in the water because there are no lifeguards. There is a bath house and bathrooms. You have to bring a bag to take out your trash as there are no trash cans there. We have never stayed at the campground across the way. Always come here for a day trip for the beach and fishing.

Killens Pond Campground

Nice state park that could use some update of its camping area.

Reviewed By 599LindaR

We spent 4 nights in this park. Sites are pretty close together and can be difficult to get into easily. There is only one bathhouse between loop C and D but it was never busy. Everything was cleaned everyday. Our main complaint was at the dumping station, which was old and not well maintained. The grandkids loved the water park and I felt it was a good value. We chose an afternoon sesssion on a Monday, so it wasnt crowded. There is a good walking trail around the pond.

Cape Henlopen State Park Campground

Nice campground

Reviewed By Susan D

We stayed in a cabin. It had a screened in porch with a large picnic table. Small refrigerator and microwave, couch, shelving and beds.. No cooking allowed inside or on the porch. There is a fire ring outside. Water spigot is outside. Restrooms and bathhouses are close by. They were clean, but showers need upgraded. Since it was off season the camp store wasn't open Tue. - Thurs. Bait shop was closed as well. Went fishing at the pier, but didn't catch any fish. Used the bike trails which were well maintained. Took a tour of the bunker which was interesting to learn of the history.

Disappointed vacation stay at campground

Reviewed By 298ronaldl

This campground is conveniently located however most of the occupants are seasonal guests . Not really a problem for me except that the only spots available for vacationers are the 6 or so right across from the office ( that’s not the issue) these spots are short and very tight rv’s are basically on top of one another. The kick here is that all the garbage receptacles are directly across from them ( no dumpster , approximately 2 dozen trash cans ) the green head flies swarm the garbage and anything within 100 or so feet of them . So bad you cannot eat outside your RV! We went to the office to ask if anything could be done and a maintenance man came over and sprayed some pesticide ( that always tasted good with breakfast ) and said that’s about all he can do . 20 minutes later the flies returned with a vengeance . I will not stay here again and would not recommend it to any other people.

G & R Campground

Nice Place to Relax

Reviewed By monicamP352IX

G & R campground is a hidden gem in DE. We stayed over Labor Day weekend. We arrived late with intentions of staying one night as we were attending a nearby event. The bath houses were clean and the lots were shaded. The owner was friendly and accommodating. We ended up staying another night. It is 30 minutes from Lewes and Rehoboth beaches. We will definitely be returning.

Not Impressed At All

Reviewed By Crystalldjjjjj

To start off…. My dad had booked a site at the front of the campground since he’s handicap… but since he didn’t “lock in” his site, we were moved. I can deal with that except they moved us to the completely opposite side of the park (literally the last spot in the farthest back corner). So, I asked for a golf cart rental and of course, they’re sold out. They don’t have enough golf carts for everyone in the park. I spoke with the woman at the front, explained my situation and the NEED for a golf cart. No apology given. She took down my number, said she’d look into it and give me a call soon… I never heard anything… now we have to spend the rest of the weekend driving our car back and forth just to use the bathroom. So, I’m not impressed with their customer service in the least bit or any type of follow-up. Needless to say my dad is very upset so, we won’t be staying here again nor recommend to others.

Great Place to Go with Your Family!!

Reviewed By xmomof1x

We had a great experience staying here! Our 1st day, traveling from PA to DE, we had awful weather from Hurricane Ida, so the campground office put our welcome kit in a weatherproof container for us to pick up at the gate entrance, when we arrived in the middle of the night. We loved that we didn't have to wait until the office opened the next morning. We stayed in one of their deluxe suite cabins, and it is literally everything you need for "glamping". The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because we had an ant problem in our cabin from day 1. As long as we kept all food in the upper cabinet and fridge, they were pretty scarce. They have a really nice pool area and a splash pad that our 3 yr old LOVED. They even have floaties/toys you can borrow. The playground is right next to the pool. They have free mini golf just a few steps away from the pool area, which is also where the campground store is. This store literally has EVERYTHING you would need for your stay (and reasonably priced). It also has a grill inside where you can order delicious food to go. They have a laundromat behind the store ($1.75 per load). The office has bicycle rentals: singles, tandems, and a few kids bikes ($2/hour or $10/day). They have a bike trail right beside the campground that runs all the way down to Lewes Beach/Cape Henlopen. I think it's 6.6 miles. This campground is HUGE. They keep it very nice & the locals who have mobiles there are very friendly. The main way to get around the campground is either bikes or golfcarts (you have to bring your own, no golfcart rentals). It was only a 15 min drive for us to get to Lewes Beach and Cape Henlopen Beach. The outlets are also only 15 mins away. The campground area is very rural and peaceful, yet close to the hussle and bussle. We loved our trip and will definitely be returning next year!
