Elk Neck Campground

I camped here back in September of 2015. The hiking is exceptional and the park could be explored for days, however the camping area is very cramped, loud and full of traffic. It seemed people never stopped driving around the tiny camp roads. I have camped in state parks before in PA, NJ, NY and VT but this state park had sites literally up against the neighboring site. Go for the beautiful scenery and hiking but camp elsewhere unless you want a festival atmosphere.

Just got back from camping at Elk Neck a few days ago. Overall, the campsite was very nice. The sites are well kept and have fairly decent bathrooms with hot showers. My only complaint is that the sites are very close together. Luckily we had nice neighbors this weekend. There are plenty of trails around the park. Don't miss hiking to Turkey Point Lighthouse for a really great view. Since it's the middle of October, we didn't do any swimming or kayaking. If you want to get out of the park, the town of North East is only 15 minutes away. There are lots of really great places to eat local seafood around the town. All-in-all we had a really great time (did I mention that this was my first time camping) and we will definitely be back!
