Jellystone Park™ Chincoteague Island

"Stay elsewhere. We had a safari tent and the flaps didn’t close. When we got to the tent birds had come in and pooped everywhere. We asked for new sheets at the front desk and for someone to fix the flaps. We also were missing the fan. Luckily we had baby wipes and could quickly wipe down the table and dresser so we didn’t get poop on ourselves. The sheets didn’t come after a few hours so we went back to the front desk to get some. The tent hadn’t been cleaned before our arrival either. There were snack wrappers and water bottles and other trash around. The majority of the amenities were closed or shutdown (canoes, kayaks etc). The pool was open but it was moldy. You did get tickets to the water park next door, which was nice. The worst part was the bathrooms. There wasn’t toilet paper and multiple toilets overflowed. There was at least two inches of mud in the entire bathroom. People were gagging it was so bad. The site wasn’t very secure as anyone could drive in. Some sites had over the allotted car amount. People would steal your picnic tables too. And the quiet hours were a joke. Also, the bouncing pillow was only open half the time. When it was open it got so hot kids were burning their feet (bring grippy socks). Also many of the kids were unsupervised and pushing the younger kids off. One child was seriously injured when we were there. This trip occurred in August of 2023."

"Stayed in our 45 ft camper, easy to get in and out, full hook ups. Well kept place, awesome customer service. The location is amazing out in the islands next to an amazing beach park. About 25% is seasonal sites but everyone was really great when we were there for Halloween."

"Had a great time off-peak, first week of November. Stayed in a safari tent, it was so spacious and comfortable, great mattresses even with a very bad back. Plenty of electrical outlets, WiFi worked great. Bathrooms/showers were a little dated but kept tidy enough and good hot roomy showers. Loved enjoying the porch with the Adirondack chairs, picnic tables, fire ring every night. Very quiet, lovely tall pine forest and clear starry skies. I'm usually more into traditional/primitive camping but it was wonderful lodging, conveniently located for my trip, staff was friendly and accommodating, and I just had a really great stay. Thank you. I will definitely be coming back and, though I like to make good use of my own tent and camping gear, it will be hard to resist the temptation of spoiling myself by booking a safari tent again!"

"I’m sure a great place if you have kids, nice looking game room and water park, but of course the water park was closed. Bath houses were kept clean, plenty of hot water, but WiFi has totally worthless, I was told it was because of the trees. Um, yeah, sure. I felt the price was a bit high considering it was off season. Staff was very nice and there is a very good camp store. Lots of choices nearby for food."

"This is a clean, family-friendly park. They usually have fun events that everyone can enjoy. The bath houses are clean and the showers are nice and hot. Our cabin was nice and slept up to 6 people comfortably."
