Assateague Island National Seashore Campground offers a beautiful and unique camping experience, highlighted by the presence of wild horses and scenic beaches. Many visitors appreciate the friendly staff, well-maintained sites, and the variety of outdoor activities, including fishing, kayaking, and exploring the natural surroundings. However, some concerns were raised about mosquito levels, restroom cleanliness, and noise disturbances, suggesting that campers should come prepared with insect repellent and be mindful of food storage to avoid attracting wildlife. Overall, the campground is regarded as a special place that fosters family traditions and memorable experiences.

Right on the beach, plenty of wildlife as well. The walk to the site was not bad at all. The bathrooms are the compost ones- no sinks.

Simply Amazing! When you check into the park, this lot is only a few hundred feet from the ranger station. We loved this location because it offers privacy, easy access to the parking lot, bathrooms/ showers, and access to the beach. Unlike the other spaces you can reserve, I noticed that the section of the beach for group campsites were less crowded than the other lots. This space comfortably fit our group of 12, and we could have easily fit more people and tents.
Cell service with AT&T worked fine for me with 3 bars of service.

The campsite #78 is in an area surrounded by bushes. The campsite itself sits in a little dip—kind of like a shallow hole or depression—nestled between dunes and thick bushes. It adds to the sense of seclusion and privacy, but there’s not a lot of ventilation and it also traps heat and bugs like crazy. That would be a good thing if you’re camping in the colder months (not the bug part), but in the hot summer, it feels about 10 degrees hotter in this campsite specifically. Again, all of the flies get trapped in there—and raccoons love that spot. If you’re reserving this campsite, make sure all your food and trash are secured.
The horses didn’t bother us at all. We stayed for a week, and not once did they enter the campsite.
The fire pit is super rusted, so I suggest bringing something to place over the grill if you plan on cooking. Also, make sure to bring a wagon with sand wheels, since it’s a bit of a walk through a sandy area.
One big plus: it stormed while we were there, and a lot of the tents out in the open area either got flooded or blown away—but because we were protected by the bushes, the storm didn’t bother us at all.
Important tip: the bugs are insane in this campsite #78. More than the rest of park. If you’re camping here, especially during summer, I highly recommend bringing a bug zapper to hang up, fly sticky traps, or even better, a screen house to eat and relax in without being swarmed.
Also, the ticks were no joke. Definitely spray your gear and clothes with permethrin ahead of time. I know that should be done regardless of where you camp, but something about this site—maybe the higher concentration of raccoons?—made the tick situation feel especially intense.
