We visited the area in mid-September and found this park. It was super chill, with a couple…read morecoming out of the water in kayaks and two or three people fishing (apparently you don't need a fishing license here). It is a very nice waterside park with a large playground area for kids, a covered picnic area and of course the area with a walkway along the water with a few covered gazebo areas. There is substantial parking and lots of places to sit. We did not use the restroom facilities but nice to know they are there.

The boardwalk is best suited for picnicking and a short walk. The bigger attraction is of course the beaches and horses one island over, but some time spent here is not amiss. The area does have some dedicated parking that is kind of hidden from the main street.

We had a great time camping there. Sorry no pics. We did the Amish 62 mile bike ride and decided to…read morecamp and I was exhausted. It's a smaller State park and slightly confusing with the direction's but the staff was helpful just get a map. We camped in a "walk back" section of E. Very spacious sites with the bathroom/shower reasonably close. Parking was "ok"..... but they fill up and then you have to use overflow. The bathrooms/showers were clean BUT I guess I'm used to sites that spray repellent because nature is boss. We drove through the comfort sites of D and they were too tight for my liking. They have yurts and cabins but for me a tad too close. They do have an Island camp site Loved it!!!!! That's a must do. It's 2 sites across a short walking bridge with water view and access. I would definitely go back.

One thing I don't understand is why the Park Maintenance people don't cut the Wisteria growth on the trees? Some trees have vines over two inches in diameter. This stuff will choke a tree to death over time! Great walk ... very pretty sights. Fall colors will make it a much nicer walk!

I have stayed at this State Park twice, once during the Spring and once during the fall. Each time,…read moreI've had nothing but a pleasant and restful time. I have stayed in the Heron and Deer Run camp loops and have nothing to complain about. The camp store where I registered my group went smoothly and the staff was friendly and comprehensive in ensuring we knew the rules and information about the park. The camp store also sells their local wood bags for $6.00. I highly recommend buying ice cream as they scoop generously at a reasonable price. Their late check-in process is simple as well as they'll have your car placard outside for you to grab with your name on it if you reserved it online ahead of time. There's plenty of things to do around if you know what to look for! If you're camping during the summer, you can enjoy a kayak or canoe rental near the camp store. You can also visit the nature center, walk the trails around, or go fishing - plenty of things to do! All in all, I would return - but would try out water's edge loop. I didn't realize it was so close to the Camp Store's showers and toilets. Highly recommend this place!

Jane's Island seems to be known primarily for the camping possibilities. The camping sites, both for tents and cabins, are pretty full during the season. Has a loyal following. Reserve early. Also, fishing is all the rage here. I saw many people fishing from the banks of the water and from kayaks, etc. However, biking possibilities are only average. Hiking is about the same. Crisfield gets a fair number of storms, had a bunch during our visit, and it can affect the grounds, but the area dries out pretty quickly.

The beach was crowded and the water seemed calm, which appeared perfect for family activities. My daughter and I were riding boogie boards not far from the shore, but I suddenly realized that despite my best efforts to swim back, we were being pulled out to sea. I panicked and waved to the lifeguards for help. They responded immediately, jumping into the water to rescue us. We visit beaches frequently, but I have never witnessed a more professional, dedicated, and vigilant group of life uards. My family and I are incredibly grateful for their life-saving intervention.

But we came back in the afternoon and drove to the end and loved it. There was this serene feeling driving through seeing the horses, birds, and wildlife. It's a $10 fee if you go during operating hours. There are several trails, places to pull over for pics, and the beach back here. The marsh is so pretty. It was a beautiful sunset and just a vibe for me and my family. We ooooohh'd and ahhh'd the whole drive. I liked that we went later in the afternoon because it wasn't as crowded and parking was easy to find. The beach is literally just steps away from the parking lot. The beach is pretty big. It's wide open, no houses or buildings, just beautiful water and brown sand!!! I had a fantastic time. I highly recommend this if you visit the area. If you drive past the McDonald's and keep driving until the end, it's a straight shot. Definitely check this place out!!!

There is street parking or a lot parking available. I do recall one year due to the Marlin tournament. Parking was difficult and we did park a few blocks away. Overall the walk was not bad and it was well worth it. I recommend bringing chairs or a blanket. If you plan to stay a while. On Sundays, they have a live band, ice cream for purchase, a playground, pond, and lots of open grass for family and friends to enjoy. Everyone's favorite part is the Sunday fireworks show. The show is great! We will continue to add this park to our Sunday fun day while in Ocean City.
