For the past few years, we've traveled to Ocean City, Maryland and arrive on Sundays. Our Sunday…read moreitinerary always consists of coming to this park for their "Sundeas in the park ". 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.

It has a waterbottle fill station and plenty of seating. Shade is a minimum and there are no bathrooms around. There is a port a potty across the street.

We make an effort to go to Bayside Park every year. They have two major sets of play equipment one…read morefor the smaller kids and another for the bigger kids. There is also a set of swings that is separate from the other two. There is a combo of natural mulch on the one part and rubberized mulch that is paved on the other half. Both playsets have multi-tiered areas to play on and under. Monkey bars, climbing walls, several slides and secret fossils and a few service windows to play "ice cream shop or food delivery" is also a nice touch. The park is open from dawn til dusk usually the park is empty but every once and a while friends will stop by and play. If you do come in the early morning remember to bring a little towel or rag to dry off the slides as the morning dew almost always leaves a puddle at the bottom of the side and no one likes a wet bottom.

This is one of the nicest playgrounds I've seen in quite some time. If you're in the area and need…read morea quick, cheap place for the kiddos to burn some energy, it's a good option. Positives - - The overall size of the place is impressive. Not as large as some of the behemoth ones that used to exist around my area before everything was converted to these very expensive metal/plastic contraptions, but still huge. - the parking is plentiful, - the crowd was small all 3 times we went - dog park across the driveway if that's useful to you. - gazebo in the center so parents can watch all areas from a shaded spot Negatives - - The only downsides would probably be that there's not really enough shade and some of the slides got VERY hot. - The parking lot next to it gets muddy on one end if it rains too much - The parking along the driveway has a nice 6-inch or so drop off to it if you pick the wrong spot. Doesn't matter much with a modest SUV, but might with a sedan.

Playground, pavillion, pickleball courts... all hidden in a little residential perimetered block…read more It was walkable (though a bit far on a seriously hot day) from our place on 141st, and was a great place to take the kids to run off some energy! I thought the playground was in exceptional shape, and though it had other visitors each time we went, was never overly crowded. The pickleball courts seemed to be well-used, too, and the overall facility was very well maintained. There is a small parking area for maybe 8 cars or so, and I don't believe street parking was available immediately outside the driveway, but it was surely sufficient for most visits.

They is pretty small but all I wanted to do was float around the lazy river for a few hours. Tried the water slides, they have 2 big ones. Additionally a 2 kiddie pool areas. Staff was fun and friendly. The lazy river was relaxing and I likes the splash areas! Again very clean, easy to get to and overall a fun time!

We've been coming to Thunder Lagoon Waterpark for years, and it's always a great time for the whole…read morefamily. If you have kids, I highly recommend it! The giant waterslides are a lot of fun, and the lazy river is one of our favorite attractions. The staff is always friendly and helpful, and the prices are very reasonable. Another great feature is the small boardwalk area just a short walk from the waterpark. You can grab funnel cakes, burgers, pizza, hot dogs, french fries, and ice cream, then bring them back into the park to enjoy. It's a convenient option when everyone gets hungry after spending time in the water. Overall, Thunder Lagoon is a fun, family-friendly waterpark that we look forward to visiting year after year. Highly recommended!

Great state park! Camping here is fun! The loops at the top of the park are more spacious and…read moresometimes more private. The ones in H loop are really squeezed in and have less space and no privacy. It's hard to book a site, and so frustrating to see empty sites that have been booked but not used. The bathrooms are some of the cleanest camping bathrooms I've ever seen. They're pretty well maintained. The horses do wander free, and you need to be careful with food on your site, as explained by the park rangers. But it's fun to see them and watch them. The camp hosts are good about cleaning and maintaining the area they're each in charge of. The beaches are nice and it's fun to go clamming out in the bay. A very quick drive will take you to Ocean City, to the boardwalk, to go karts, Walmart, Wawa, the movie theater, etc. Lots close by to do if you get caught there on a rainy day. Lovely place to visit.

Assateague is so cool!... Particularly on a breezy day when the flies can't takeoff…read more During a trip to Ocean City, we visited Assateague on the Maryland end. I was so eager to see the horses I heard about, but weary we might not see any. Maybe we were lucky, because we saw sooo many horses! On the road, in the parking lots, in marshes, wandering, grazing, standing on front of cars. So cute! Stop at the visitors center first. Very nice place, helpful information, exhibits, a touch tank, bathrooms, gift shop and then you'll be on your way. Admission per vehicle gets you access for a week. We loved spending a few hours here so much that we came back a second day. The beaches are clean and not crowded. Lots of dogs, so be warned if you're averse. The marsh trail was really cool. We saw several small fishies, pipefish, crabs, egrets, just really cool to look in the water throughout the trail and observe. Bayside beaches are hidden spots for isolated swims. I saw a family here and there just swimming completely alone. The forest trail was also a good one to walk. More interesting nature. We weren't too crazy about the dune trail. Although, it was interesting to see the old abandoned road in the middle of the dune. Horses here there and everywhere, almost. Overall, such a fun place to visit. Go for a few hours or spend the day. Remember, ensure it's breezy and you'll be almost completely fly free.

It's not free and $10 for out-of-state residents is not too expensive. Thankfully, I stopped in…read morelate in the afternoon and there was no ranger at the kiosk or I would have turned around. I parked and spent about 20 minutes enjoying the beach and the sunshine. The beach is beautiful. No trash, firm sand and a smooth include down into the water. The waves were pretty calm today which was good because I did not spot any lifeguards on duty. A great spot to spend some time at the ocean. [Review 18162 overall - 84 in Delaware - 1684 of 2022.]

We came here for a family photo shoot…read more THE PARK: Parking/entry fee was $10 for state residents and $20 for all others, paid via a machine. By the time we got here the facilities up front were closed so I have no idea what was available sans for restrooms and an outdoor shower. According to the website, shower and changing facilities are available, along with a food concession, chair & umbrella rentals, even a Mobi-Mat which allows wheelchairs to be pushed onto the beach (such a great idea). The sandy area is very wide and stretches for 3 miles with zero shady spots or trees. Lifeguards were gone for the day with their stands turned upside down. I noticed some vehicles actually parked on the beach near the northern end, a very cool perk that is not allowed back home. Ocean conditions were fairly calm but most folks were in waist-high water at most. OVERALL: Spacious real estate, but coming from Hawaii, my expectations are set too high, LOL.

White Horse Park has been a wonderful part of Ocean Pines since the beginning of this community…read more The addition of the new community center has really expanded the possibilities of this facility. In addition to multiple childrens play areas, there is a large HUGE pavilion for concerts and parties. Every Thursday during the warm weather, free concerts are held there. The playgrounds are seperate and graduated by age group (baby, preschooler and grade schooler). There are over 40 acres of woodland to explore, in addition to a boat slip that lets you access the canals of the Pines. All in all, this a great, shady (TONS of Pine trees) Park in Ocean Pines.

Fantastic location to watch the sunset and see the sun create glimmering patterns across the bay…read more It was a cold and chilly evening when we stopped there. We mostly stayed in the car. Because only one other person was there, we were able to easily get a place to park. I can imagine this being a very popular place to come and watch the sun disappear, particularly when the weather is warmer and you can enjoy the moment instead of try to stay warm. There's a gazebo where you can sit. There's also a small pier but I wasn't sure if that was part of the park or private property so we didn't investigate.

This used to be a nice place to visit. Unfortunately now the homeless people have moved in and…read moreyou'll probably be harassed, certainly when it's relatively empty. It wasn't always this way, not sure if it changed after the new governor took over. But it makes sense.

Ocean City Boardwalk is an ocean side board (wooden planked) walking area surrounded with…read moreactivities, eateries, ice cream parlours and a couple of Ferris wheels operating. A small museum providing insightful local history which can be of interest to the visitors, especially the kids, is also there. Buzzing with tourists aswell as locals, there is lots of excitement to be seen around. Metered parking spots are available at a short walking distance. Next when travelling to Ocean City MD, give the place a try, especially during the evenings.

Wow! What an experience! My first visit to the Boardwalk was for Oceans Calling; I've never…read moreexperienced a music festival with so much support and community. The festival encompassed and closed off portions of the Boardwalk and it was amazing being able to support local businesses (in their business!) while at a festival. The community here was top notch, and the festival organizers really did an amazing job. Have to call out the staff at the Boardwalk public restrooms - they kept the women's room pristine! Never, EVER have I experienced such clean restrooms at a music festival OR at a public beach.
