[@RVBlogger]

Hi Everyone, We hope you enjoyed our video! Think you might like to check out Assateague Island, MD? Please say hello by leaving a comment below! Also, please feel free to ask any questions or just tell us about yourselves. We want to get to know you and share our RV experiences.

[@anitaspinner5948]

My husband and I are planning to camp in a RV on Assateague Island. I have reservations at the state park and the national seashore.This is our first time camping in a RV and going to Assateague. We have a reservation at the state park (B loop) and Oceanside loop 2 the seashore. I'm having a hard time deciding where to stay. Any tips or suggestions for first timers?

[@RVBlogger]

Hi Anita, Both have their advantages and disadvantages. We like staying on the beach side so I can walk right to the ocean! But others enjoy the bayside for canoeing or kayaking. So it just all depends... Try both and see which you like better! Thanks for watching the video! Mike

[@yoandy._.barillas]

I went there last month its really fun there

[@goneswimming5636]

The ponies are everywhere on the MD side too. In MD they roam free on the beach, in VA they are penned.

[@RVBlogger]

@@goneswimming5636 Thanks for the info!!! We will be heading there in July! Can't wait!

[@cherylhack2072]

Its Beautiful but when I saw the horses my heart just melt😍😍Thanks for Sharing

[@RVBlogger]

Hi Cheryl, The horses are amazing. Sometimes they come right into our campsite in the evening looking for food. My daughter was down there this past summer camping with some friends who were there for the very first time and they were amazed when the horses came right into their campsite and went straight to the food coolers and tried tipping them over to open them up. It is beautiful and amazing there. My daughters (who are now 27 and 29) are lucky that my brother took them to Assateague every summer to go camping when they were kids. Thanks for watching and I'm glad you liked seeing the horses. Mike

New subscriber love your show think it's great. I live here in Ocean City Maryland born and raised . You all did a very good job showing the island it is a great place to go I often four-wheel drive there and also camp at the bull pen in the off-road area great place to hang out have bonfires quiet and relaxing looking forward to seeing more of your videos.

[@RVBlogger]

HEy Mike, We appreciate the love and support!! OC MD is beautiful, that sounds awesome!!!

[@lizdc1]

Just a just a note the wild ponies also live in the campgrounds. They have a number of family groups that live in the campgrounds. We camp for two weeks in July in the state park every year in the same loop. They same family grouping is always around often showing off their newest baby pony.

[@RVBlogger]

Hi lizdc1, That is awesome! As many times as we have been there I never realized I might be seeing the same pony family every year. Great comment! Thanks for sharing! Mike

[@blackbarbie8604]

Haha sooo true. I also thought I was the only one with a preferred loop and spot at Assateague 😅

[@Zofeya1207]

Thank you for all your helpful information 🙂🙏

Wow beautiful place. Looks like a place I could hang out for a few days for sure. Thanks for the great share.

[@RVBlogger]

Hi William, We love it down at the beach - especially when the fish are running! Thanks for watching! Looks like your Flood Update Video got a bunch of views! Awesome! Mike

[@lizsteilkie]

Great information. So beautiful! I love beach camping. Assateague and Chincoteague have been on my travel list ever since I read Marguerite Henry's Chincoteague books as a little girl. I'm on the west coast but I hope to get there some day - with luck in a nice RV!

[@RVBlogger]

It’s a really cool place. Wild ponies and fires on the beach at night ( in the national seashore part - fires on the beach are not allowed in the state park) Anyway - we love it there! Thanks for watching and I hope you get there in a Sweet RV someday too! Mike

[@dqsimpson5331]

You may want to look up the bed and breakfast in chincoteague called Ms Mollys (i think). This is the original house where some of her books were written

Hi Nick, Glad you liked the video! Can't wait to get back down there! Thanks for watching and commenting! Mike and Susan GET READY! We are launching our new digital/video magazine called RV Camping Magazine on June 1st! Stay tuned for our KZbin Video all about it!

[@jashaundacollins6391]

I just heard about this place on the news. KZbin never fails me, lol. Looks interesting. The bridge made me reconsider 😭

[@RVBlogger]

Hi Blax, Assateague is beautiful. My daughters have been camping here every summer since they were kids with their uncle. And now as adults they still go here every summer. Susan and I enjoy it too! You should definitely check it out. It's also not far from Ocean City MD so you can hit the board walk and enjoy that too! Have you ever been beach camping? Thanks for watching and commenting! Mike

[@jashaundacollins6391]

Hey. I have been to Ocean City but I have never been camping. I am not a fan of driving over the Bay Bridge 😞

[@RVBlogger]

Hi Blax, I don’t like driving over any bridges if it’s windy! But if it’s not windy then I’m fine. You’ve never been camping? You should rent an RV and try it for a weekend to see how you like it! Get on out there and enjoy the experience!

[@ethanhann8604]

Beautiful camping site, though ive never heard of that island though im in maryland

[@RVBlogger]

Really? You’ve never heard of Assateage? It’s just south of Ocean City. Have you been to OC?

[@ethanhann8604]

@@RVBlogger i have only been to ocean city in HK and that was when i was 7

[@Ethzega]

Thanks for sharing

[@RVBlogger]

Hi Ethzega! Thanks for watching! Mike

[@mattmp2011]

Where areas did you stay in? And what did you prefer? any loops you liked or disliked?

[@RVBlogger]

Hi Matthew, For the beach loops we like the sites that back right up to the dunes. On the Bayside we like the sites that back up to the bay. Just use GoogleMaps in the satellite view when choosing your campsites (for any campground) and you will always find the best spots! Thanks for watching and commenting! Mike and Susan

[@lizsteilkie]

Permit required plus a rescue kit. It was 75$ and there are a limited number issued...

[@diatonicdoug6525]

Great video showing the differences between the two parks. It’s the Sinepuxent Bay not Chincoteague

[@RVBlogger]

Ahhh...I see. Yes it is and the Sinepuxent Bay leads right into the Chincoteague Bay. Thanks for letting me know! Unfortunately we can't edit KZbin videos once they are posted. It's the one thing I really don't like about KZbin. Thanks for watching! Mike

I went here in 2019, it was fun. Going again in 2 days.

I enjoyed the blog. I will be back for more. Just a suggestion, get a mike cover. It will help

[@RVBlogger]

Hi Larry, Thanks for the suggestion! We have a mic cover but it was so darn windy it just didn't even matter. Plus I don't think our mic cover works as well as it could. Thanks for watching and I really appreciate your suggestion. We will never improve if people don't tell us what we could be doing better. Mike

[@kevinhoffman8112]

Just so everyone knows, the wild Ponies are also in the Maryland part of the park, not just Virginia.

[@RVBlogger]

Hi Kevin, Thanks for clarifying that! Sometimes I don't say everything the way I would like to! Ugh! Are you from MD? Thanks for watching and commenting!

Are you from western South Jersey or the City of Philadelphia because your accent to so strong and obvious?

Informative video. Invest in a wireless microphone with windscreen.

[@RVBlogger]

LOL! We shot this video in 2019 and we were brand new KZbinrs then. We invested in wireless mics since then but thanks for your feedback. Our viewers have definitely helped us to improve over the years. Mike

[@gisellemachado9817]

a have a few questions, 1 how much is the entrance cost?, 2 do you have to pay to camp or do you just pay the entrance and tell them how long your going to camp?

[@RVBlogger]

Hi Gisyfam, Good questions. There are two Parks at Assateague. The State Park and the National Seashore. Here are the links to both so you can check out the fees. dnr.maryland.gov/Publiclands/Pages/oc.aspx www.assateagueisland.com/assateague_camping.htm#parkcamping Hope this helps!

[@Tom-kn6sr]

[@blackbarbie8604]

This is my favorite beach and the 1st place I vacationed with my RV. It was super cold in November 2019. Since the Pandemic, i thought they closed the park to visitors 😣

[@RVBlogger]

Hi blackbarbie, We love it there too! We are from MD so we have camped there many times throughout our entire lives. Not sure if they closed the park or not but I don't think they did. We shot this video in November of 2019 - pre-covid... Thanks for watching and commenting! Mike and Susan

[@dbobar7969]

You need a Mic, Mike

[@RVBlogger]

Hi D, We have an external mic but the wind was just too much that day at the beach. We are considering a lapel mic in the future though. Thanks very much for watching and for the feedback! Mike

[@ratrod501]

Saw you guys at the show yesterday. You were filming something so I didnt bother you.

[@RVBlogger]

Hi ratrod501, Sorry we missed you! We were there again today and we will be there tomorrow and next weekend too... we have lots of filming to do but please say hi if you are back at the show and see us! Thanks for saying hi through your comment! Mike and Susan

[@kathrynmakoski]

So hard to hear you with the wind. Content was good but too frustrating to finish.

[@RVBlogger]

Sorry about that. We made that video before we improved our microphone system. Not to mention it was a ridiculously windy day. Thank you for watching our Assateague Island video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

[@Rio-by1eh]

Or just get some food at fast food places like dominos

Hi Miron, Mmmmmm......pizza! Have you ever had a pizza delivered to your campsite? Thanks for watching and commenting! Mike and Susan Did you see our video about our FREE RV Rental for a Weekend we are giving away? Hope you will check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/npCxiJKFYrumitE

[@mikem4432]

90$ per day just to drive on a state and federally taxpayer supported beach.. really?? nice.. 😎

[@RVBlogger]

We were just in Assateague last week for a visit! It is beautiful there. At the time we made this video the beach pass was $90 a YEAR. Now it costs $110 a year. But driving on the beach is great and I may be heading back this fall for the stripped bass run! Wish me luck!
