Way over on the east coast, in the mid-Atlantic, lies Delaware. It has the lowest mean elevation in any state, with lots of variation in climate throughout the year, making it a sweet spot for campers and RVers. Although it’s the second smallest state in the nation, it’s jam packed with points of interest, such as the famous Delaware Seashore State Park, Winterthur Museum Garden and Library, and the historic Fort Delaware defense facility.
If you’re a history buff, an explorer, or just love having unique family fun, Delaware makes a great state for your next vacation. We’ve taken the liberty of creating a detailed list of the top 10 RV parks and campground in the state.

“Just spent an entire week here with Two RVs and 4 total adults. Park is very nice for being on sand and close to the water. Sites are growing grass as best as could be expected being only a year old or so. Pools were very nice as well as the food offered. Adult Pool made you feel like you were at St. Thomas or something…” – Bill, Google Review
