Big Oaks Campground

We’ve been seasonal campers at Big Oaks Family Campground for about ten years, and honestly, the only good thing about this place is its location. That’s it. Everything else has gone downhill or was never good to begin with.

The staff are, without question, the rudest people you’ll ever deal with in a business. They don’t care about you, your family, or your experience — only about your money. And it shows. We pay a lot for our seasonal site, yet we’re still charged $5 per person for any guest who visits — even if they’re just dropping something off or staying for five minutes. I’ve literally seen them chase people down on ATVs to collect that five dollars.

If you talk at a normal volume past 10 p.m., they’ll come by shining flashlights in your face and telling you to be quiet. It’s absurd.

The facilities are disgusting — the pool, the bathhouses, everything. I’ve only ever seen them clean the pool at the very beginning and end of the season. The bathrooms are full of spiderwebs, mosquitoes, broken tiles, and leaking pipes. It’s clear maintenance and cleanliness are not priorities here.

They’ll kick you out at the drop of a hat, no discussion, no respect, no decency. After so many years of giving them our business, it’s painfully obvious that Big Oaks Family Campground does not care about its campers — only their wallets.

Save yourself the frustration and find a place that actually values its guests.

I’m going to be fair. The confederate flags are very present. If that makes you uncomfortable, don’t book this place. My review is based on the site and the amenities. The staff were great and treated me very kindly. I appreciated that. The pool was nice, clean and not crowded. I camped with my family in a travel trailer, so I can’t speak to the cleanliness of the restrooms or showers.
The sites were very close and didn’t leave much room for a fire or to use the picnic table. The ground was not level and it was all sandy dirt. We were camping though. As a black family, our experience wasn’t the best. The kids weren’t very comfortable leaving the trailer and I felt bad for exposing them to that by not reading the reviews first. Unfortunately, we won’t be returning to this establishment. If you’re not triggered by their symbolism, this is a good bargain for travel trailers and rv’s.

Cash only… what a great find. Stayed here in July when every hotel in the area is absurdly expensive. $50 per night for a tent site including water and 15A outlets at every site. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Pool water was perfect. And… it’s just a short bus ride or bike ride to Rehoboth boardwalk!
