HORSES WELCOME!  Why not run your horse on the beach, then come to our campsites to relax for the rest of your day.  There is a fenced pasture positioned next to the sites so you can see your faithful friend enjoying some grass or hay.  We have a new Zinger 29' trailer set up with a bunk room and another bedroom, full kitchen and bathroom.  It can easily sleep six people.  If you have your own RV, we have a full hook up at the same area.  The pasture where your horse stays will also have hay, water and shelter with a run-in.  This is a sanctuary for our animals.  We have nine animals here, four horses (some minnies) and five donkeys (some minnies).  By staying here, you will be helping us to support our animals.  We are in Frankford, De which is close to all the beaches and parks.  There are many shopping adventures awaiting you, either outlets or upcycle stores.  If you just want to relax, there is a small pond out back stocked with bass and turtles.  We have 17+ acres but we only use the front five acres and leave the rest for the deer, foxes, eagles, hawks and whatever else shows up.  We believe this is Heaven on earth and would love to share it will you.  So please come, stay at our farm and relax.  We are here year round.

We had a wonderful time at Why not Acres. Marian and Mike are great and so friendly and helpful during your our stay. They greeted us when we arrived. They told us all about the area. The RV was very clean and comfortable. We would definitely come again. The Gerlitzki family.

Amazing place!
The host was amazing and very flexible with check in times and super accommodating, the campsite was prepared and cleaned, neighbors were far enough apart to enjoy time to ourselves and the entire trip and environment were amazing! Will stay again for sure!

This is my second time camping at Why Not and I absolutely love it. Marian and Mike are amazing people and their land is gorgeous. Just country enough for solitude, but close enough to civilization to make things easier. I am definitely coming back. :)

Great tent camping experience!
Really enjoyed our stay here! Sites are well maintained and have everything you need for a great tent camping experience. Our daughter liked visiting the farm animals and it was easy to get to the Delaware shore and other amenities.

We loved it!
I loved this place. The owners are super sweet and welcoming. The animals are adorable and very friendly. And the tent sites have everything you need. They even provide firewood AND charcoal! Amazing. It’s a stones skip from the beach and Millsboro, which has everything that you could possibly need. The site itself is beautiful, peaceful, and quiet. And…their across the street neighbors own a bison farm! We will definitely be coming back to this farm. Thank you Mike and Mariam. :)
