Campgrounds near Delmar, Delaware
Delmar sits on the Delaware-Maryland line in Sussex County, a flat, wooded stretch of the Delmarva Peninsula about 30 minutes from Ocean City and roughly an hour from the Delaware beaches at Rehoboth and Fenwick Island. The area works as a practical base for RV travelers who want coastal access without paying peak beachfront rates, with campgrounds spread across farmland, pine forest, and river bottomland.
Options close to town include Woodlawn Camp Ground, a small property just outside Delmar, and Sandy Hill Family Camp roughly a half-hour drive away. For state-run camping, primitive tent camping is available year-round at Redden State Forest, north of Georgetown, and Shad Landing at Pocomoke River State Park sits along the cypress-lined Pocomoke River on Maryland's Eastern Shore south of Delmar.
For RV travelers heading toward the coast, Sun Outdoors Ocean City Gateway provides full-hookup sites within easy reach of Ocean City boardwalk attractions and Assateague Island.
Things to do near Delmar
The main draw is water. The Pocomoke River supports fishing, paddling, and birding through cypress-lined bottomland, and Shad Landing offers a marina with public boat launch, seasonal kayak and canoe rentals from Memorial Day through Labor Day, fishing piers, a swimming pool, playground, nature center, and camp store. Assateague Island, about an hour east, is known for wild horses and undeveloped Atlantic beach.
Inland, Redden State Forest has miles of wooded trails for hiking and wildlife viewing among managed pine stands. The historic Lodge at Redden can be rented for gatherings, and pavilions are also reservable.
Day trips work well from Delmar: the Ocean City boardwalk and amusements, Rehoboth Beach shopping, Chincoteague to the south, and outlet shopping in Delaware, which has no sales tax.

When to visit Delmar

64° / 43°F 95 mmMild; state-park sites easier to book before summer

Summer is the busiest stretch by a wide margin. Coastal traffic peaks between Memorial Day and Labor Day, and campgrounds in the region fill quickly during that window, particularly on holiday weekends and around Ocean City events. Heat and humidity are typical from late June through August, with afternoon thunderstorms common and biting insects at their worst near swampy bottomland.
Spring and fall are the sweet spots for RV travel. Temperatures are mild, insects are less aggressive, and state park loops are easier to book. Kayak and canoe rentals at Shad Landing run Memorial Day through Labor Day, so paddlers who want on-site rentals should plan within that window; otherwise, bring gear.
Winter is quiet. Private resort-style parks near Ocean City often reduce operations or close, while primitive tent camping remains available 365 days a year at Redden State Forest. Expect cold nights, occasional coastal storms, and limited amenities off-season.
How to book campgrounds near Delmar
Reservation systems vary by operator. For Maryland state parks, including Shad Landing, reservations are handled through the Maryland Department of Natural Resources at parkreservations.maryland.gov or by phone at 1-888-432-2267. The booking window opens 365 days ahead of the arrival date, with new inventory released each morning the call center is open, so summer weekends on waterfront loops should be secured as early as possible.
For Delaware state forests, camping is by online reservation only through the Delaware Forest Service portal at de.gov/forestcamping. State forests allow tent camping only: pickup campers, travel trailers, and motorhomes are not permitted, so Redden is not suitable for RVs.
Private campgrounds such as Woodlawn Camp Ground, Sandy Hill Family Camp, and Sun Outdoors Ocean City Gateway take reservations directly through their own websites or by phone.
What to expect on the ground
Terrain around Delmar is flat and wooded, with sandy soils and slow-moving rivers. Sites at private resort-style parks near the coast tend to be closer together, with full hookups, pools, and family amenities. State park sites are more spaced out and shaded. Shad Landing offers tent sites, RV sites with 30 and 50 amp electric in select loops, and mini cabins, plus centralized bathhouses with hot showers and flush toilets, a dump station, and a camp store. Water hookups at individual sites are limited.
Mosquitoes, ticks, and biting flies are a real factor from late spring through early fall, especially near swampy bottomland. Bring repellent and check for ticks after hikes.
Cell coverage is generally reliable in and around Delmar and weaker in the deeper forest loops.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Delmar, DE
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Delmar, DE?
An RV rental in Delmar is one of the more affordable ways to explore the Delmarva Peninsula and nearby beach towns. On RVezy, travel trailers in the Delmar area typically start around $90 to $150 per night, Class C motorhomes range from $175 to $275 per night, and larger Class A rigs run $250 to $400. Shoulder seasons in April, May, September, and October usually price 15 to 25 percent lower than peak July weekends near Ocean City and Rehoboth. To find a cheap RV rental Delmar travelers love, filter by travel trailers, book Sunday-through-Thursday stays, and message hosts about weekly discounts. Booking six to eight weeks ahead of summer weekends helps lock in the best rates.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Delmar%2C%20DelawareDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Delmar, DE?
A regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Delaware. No commercial driver's license (CDL) or special RV endorsement is required for vehicles under 26,000 pounds, which covers nearly every motorhome and travel trailer on RVezy. To book through RVezy, you generally need to be 25 or older with a valid driver's license, and the platform verifies your ID right inside your account. Visiting Delmar from outside the U.S.? Pick up an International Driving Permit (IDP) from your home country's auto association before your trip. Most first-time renters in Delmar are pleasantly surprised at how quickly the booking confirmation comes through.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection and roadside coverage is included when I rent an RV in Delmar?
Peace of mind comes standard. Every RV rental in Delaware booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can roll toward the Atlantic beaches knowing you are covered. The protection plan helps cover damage to the RV during your trip, and you choose your coverage level during checkout. Roadside help is just a phone call away whether you are on Route 13 heading to Ocean City or pulled over near Trap Pond State Park. Pick your coverage tier at booking and focus on the fun.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat is the cancellation policy if my Delmar RV trip plans change?
Booking your Delmar RV trip is low-risk. RVezy applies a consistent cancellation policy across the platform, including a money-back grace period right after you book so you have breathing room to confirm plans. The exact refund depends on how far ahead of your trip start date you cancel, and RVezy has flexibility built in for major unforeseen events like hurricanes or tropical storms, which can occasionally affect the Delmarva coast. Hosts do not set their own cancellation terms, so the process is the same whether you rent a campervan in Delmar or a fifth wheel for a week at Cape Henlopen. Lock in your dates with confidence and reach out to RVezy support anytime you have questions.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Delmar, DE?
Absolutely, four-legged co-pilots are welcome on plenty of trips. To find a pet-friendly RV rental Delmar hosts offer, just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy and you will see listings that allow dogs and other pets, often with a small cleaning fee. Delmar is perfectly positioned for dog-loving campers: Trap Pond State Park (about 15 minutes south) has leashed-pet trails through the bald cypress swamp, and Cape Henlopen State Park welcomes dogs year-round on most trails and has a dedicated dog beach near Herring Point during the off-season. Message your host before booking to confirm pet rules and bring a tie-out, towels, and freshwater bowls for sandy beach days.
destateparks.com/Activities/PetPolicyCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Delmar?
Yes, and it is a game changer for first-timers. Many RVezy hosts in the Delmar area offer RV delivery so the host drives the RV to your campground, sets up the slides, levels the rig, connects the hookups, and walks you through everything before handing over the keys. Popular drop-off spots include Trap Pond State Park, Holly Lake Campsites in Millsboro, and Castaways RV Resort in Berlin, Maryland. Use the Delivery filter when searching, then message the host with your campsite number and dates. Delivery fees usually scale with distance, so booking a host based in Sussex County keeps costs low and the setup stress-free.
destateparks.com/CampingHow far can I drive on a Delmar RV rental, and is unlimited mileage available?
You have plenty of road ahead. Many Delmar-area hosts include 100 to 150 free miles per night, and some list an RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is ideal if you are planning a longer Delmarva loop. From Delmar you are roughly 25 miles to Ocean City, MD, 35 miles to Rehoboth Beach, 35 miles to Assateague Island National Seashore, 90 miles to Annapolis, and about 125 miles to Washington, D.C. Extra miles typically run 30 to 45 cents each if you exceed the included allowance. Filter by Unlimited Mileage for any RV road trip from Delmar that ventures to Virginia Beach or up into Pennsylvania Dutch Country.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Delmar%2C%20DelawareWhere are the best campgrounds near Delmar, DE to park my RV?
Delmar sits in the sweet spot for some of the best campgrounds on the Delmarva Peninsula. Trap Pond State Park (about 15 minutes south in Laurel) offers wooded sites with water and electric, plus kayak rentals on the bald cypress lake. Castaways RV Resort in Berlin, MD has beachy vibes near Assateague. Holly Lake Campsites in Millsboro features full hookups and waterfront sites. Cape Henlopen State Park in Lewes (about 40 minutes east) puts you steps from the Atlantic. For RV camping Delmar trips in summer, book Delaware State Parks sites the moment they open through the official reservation system.
destateparks.com/Camping/ReservationsWhen is the best time of year to rent an RV in Delmar, DE?
Late spring through early fall is the sweet spot. May through early October delivers daytime highs in the 70s to mid-80s F and warm Atlantic water perfect for beach days. June and September are smart picks with lower rates, smaller crowds, and consistently sunny weather. July and August are peak season with highs near 87 F and heavy weekend traffic on Route 1 toward the beaches, so book your motorhome rental Delmar early. April and October bring cooler 55 to 70 F days great for hiking Trap Pond. Winters here are mild (35 to 50 F) and a few hosts keep listings active year-round. Heads up: Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30, with peak activity in September.
weather.gov/akq/I am a first-time RV renter. How do I know what to do at pickup?
You are in great hands. For first-time renters near Delmar, your host gives you a full walkthrough at pickup or delivery, covering how to operate the slides, awning, water systems, propane, generator, and dump valves, and many hand you a printed cheat sheet too. Most Delmar-area hosts rent travel trailers and Class C motorhomes, which drive much more like an oversized van than a bus. Stick to right-hand turns at first, watch your overhead height (a typical Class C is around 11 feet), and use Route 13 or US-50 instead of small back roads. RVezy support is available by phone or chat if you have questions before or during your trip.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/categories/360002328233-For-GuestsWhat happens if something goes wrong with the RV during my Delmar trip?
Help is one call away, 24/7. Every RV rental in Delmar booked through RVezy includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, covering flat tires, lockouts, dead batteries, mechanical breakdowns, and towing. If you have an issue on US-13, Route 1, or out near Assateague, call the roadside number on your booking confirmation and a local provider gets dispatched. For host-related questions (a missing item or a quick how-to), message your host directly through the RVezy app, and RVezy customer support is on standby if you need extra help.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Delmar RV rental on an interstate road trip or across the border?
Yes, and Delmar's location makes it a fantastic launchpad. An RV road trip from Delmar puts you within easy reach of multiple states: Ocean City, MD (25 miles), Chincoteague and Assateague, VA (60 miles), Virginia Beach (130 miles), Philadelphia (110 miles), and Shenandoah National Park (200 miles). Cross-state travel within the U.S. is welcome on most RVezy bookings, just confirm the route with your host. Travel into Canada may be allowed with host approval and proper paperwork. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals because insurance coverage does not extend there. Message the host before booking to confirm your full route so everyone is aligned.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat kind of fuel mileage should I budget for my Delmar RV trip?
Plan smart and you will not be caught off guard. Travel trailers towed by your own truck or SUV usually drop your mpg by 30 to 40 percent. Class B campervans (often diesel) get around 18 to 22 mpg. Class C motorhomes average 8 to 12 mpg. Class A rigs run 6 to 10 mpg. Gas prices in the Delmar and Salisbury area tend to track close to the national average. Wawa and Royal Farms stations along US-13 are RV-friendly with high canopies. A 300-mile Delmarva loop in a Class C runs roughly $90 to $130 in fuel, so budget accordingly.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far ahead should I book a campground near Delmar?
The earlier the better, especially for summer. Delaware State Parks (Trap Pond, Cape Henlopen, Killens Pond) open reservations 11 months in advance through the official reservations portal, and prime summer weekends sell out within hours of release. Maryland's Assateague State Park books up nearly as fast on its reservation site. Private parks like Castaways, Holly Lake, and Roaming Pines typically take reservations 6 to 12 months ahead and are a bit more flexible. For mid-week stays in May, June, September, or October you can often score sites 2 to 4 weeks out. Pro tip: set a calendar reminder for the exact 11-month booking window if you want a waterfront spot at Cape Henlopen.
destateparks.com/Camping/ReservationsWhat are driving conditions like around Delmar, DE?
Driving around Delmar is refreshingly easy. The roads are flat, straight, and well-maintained: US-13 runs right through town as the main north-south route, and US-50 and Route 1 are the busy east-west corridors to the beaches. Summer Friday afternoons see heavy beach traffic eastbound on Route 50 toward Ocean City and Route 1 toward Rehoboth, so plan to roll out early morning or after 7 p.m. Watch for low-clearance railroad overpasses on smaller routes (your host will share heights). Coastal storms can bring sudden downpours June through October, and fog is common at dawn near the marshes. No mountains, no switchbacks, just easy Delmarva driving.
deldot.gov/What amenities will I find at campgrounds near Delmar?
You will have everything you need close by. Most full-service campgrounds near Delmar (Castaways, Holly Lake, Roaming Pines, Sun Outdoors Frontier Town) offer 30/50-amp electric, water, sewer hookups, Wi-Fi, pools, and laundry. Delaware State Parks like Trap Pond and Cape Henlopen provide water and electric at most sites with central bathhouses, dump stations, and potable water fills (no sewer at the site). Need a dump or freshwater fill on the road? Trap Pond State Park has a public dump station, and travel centers along US-13 north of town offer dump and propane services. Pack a 25-foot sewer hose, a water pressure regulator, and a drinking-safe hose for any RV camping Delmar adventure.
destateparks.com/Camping/CampgroundsWhat features and amenities come inside a typical Delmar RV rental?
You will be comfortable from day one. Most RVs in the Delmar area come fully equipped: queen or king bed, sleeper sofa or dinette that converts, full kitchen with refrigerator, freezer, microwave, stove, and sink, and a wet or dry bathroom with shower and toilet. Class C motorhome rental Delmar listings typically sleep 4 to 7, include rooftop air conditioning (a must for July humidity), furnace heat, awning, and DOT-approved seatbelts for travel. Many hosts add TVs, Bluetooth speakers, outdoor grills, and even Starlink or mobile hotspots for Wi-Fi on the go. Generators are common on Class A and C rigs. Check each listing's amenities list and message the host if you need something specific like a CPAP-friendly inverter.
nhtsa.gov/equipment/recreational-vehiclesWhat add-ons can I get with my Delmar RV rental and how does pickup work?
You can customize your trip with ease. Popular RVezy add-ons in the Delmar area include linens and bedding packs, kitchen kits, camp chairs and outdoor rugs, bike racks, generators, propane refills, and pre-trip stocking. Pickup is usually at the host's home in Delmar, Laurel, Salisbury, or Seaford, or you can choose RV delivery directly to your campground for a per-mile fee. Walk-throughs typically take 30 to 60 minutes. Mileage policies vary by host (many include 100 to 150 miles per night, some offer unlimited), and pet fees, late return fees, and dump-station service fees are spelled out on each listing before you book. No surprises at checkout.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Delmar%2C%20DelawareHow do payment and the security deposit work for my Delmar RV booking?
It is straightforward and secure. When you book an RV rental in Delmar on RVezy, payment is processed directly through the platform with a major credit or debit card, so cash never changes hands with your host. A refundable security deposit is pre-authorized on your card before your trip and released after the host confirms the RV came back in good shape. To avoid any deposit issues, do a quick walk-through video at pickup and drop-off, return with the agreed fuel and propane levels, and empty the holding tanks if your host requires it. Easy, transparent, and built so both sides have a great experience.
