Assateague Island National Park calls for careful planning and packing of necessary gear in preparation for the harsh habitat of the barrier island.
Reservations for campsites can be made up to 6-months in advance. Guests can choose between oceanside spots or campsites on the bayside of the narrow strip of sand and dunes. The highlight of the park is the two herds of wild horses that inhabit the island, descendants of 17th-century horses brought to the area by colonists dodging livestock taxes.
The campground is open year-round and can accommodate tents, trailers, and RVs but there are no hook-ups or dump stations on site.
