Just want to comment on the politeness of Dana on the phone while taking reservations.She was so patient while I tried to figure out when was the best time for me. Helpful by answering questions and telling me about the campsite and ways of different transportation to the beach. The best part was she answered the phone while the office... More

My wife and I stayed here for the first time in 2005, looking for an alternative to the seriously over-priced hotels in the area. We have been back every year since then. every summer i cannot wait to go to the beach, then come back and sit on the porch, read my book under the cool canopy of the trees... More

Ok, I've been going here for about 20 years now. Yes, it's tight and small. Maneuvering through the campground pulling a trailer can be tough, but it's not the end of the world. I've never had any problems with the owners. In fact, they have gone out of their way to help me when needed. I'm camping, period! Treat the... More

I decided to write a review of this campground after reading some of the recent negative reviews because this campground does not deserve them! This really is a nice place. We visited Big Oaks in July 2012 and found the place to be clean, well managed and in a great location close enought to ride our bikes to the beach.This... More

My husband and I took our first RV trip to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. We stayed at Big Oaks Family Campground, August 26 - 31. Check-in was easy and simple. We had our RV and also were pulling a trailer. They came out and helped direct us (backing up in entryway) so we could more easily get into our spot. They... More

We stayed there on a cabin. We checked in on a Thursday and checked out on a Friday. We called Thursday morning around noon to ask if we could check in early since I thought probably the cabin was available and clean. I was told that the cabins were not ready yet but they will be at 3 p.m (official... More

We do allow early check in if the rental unit is ready, however, on the day in question we were doing some roof maintenance on a few of the cabins, so we held check ins until 3pm to avoid noise complaints. The bathing facility by cabins 11-19 has 3 additional showers on the back side of the building, and the... More

Fist of all I want to write how unprofessional the manager responses are, they are not reassuring past or future visitors that this place has anything more to offer than other sites. All that they have done is try to rebuttal statements and defend themselves, I have not read one apology for any of the reviews on how people were... More

I don't know if she misunderstood us, or we misunderstood her, but our rates cover 2 adults and 2 dependent children under 18yrs. That does not cover 2 couples traveling as adults, with some under 18yrs.., and the $5 key deposit is refunded when you return the key. The bathrooms are cleaned twice a day, and we are complimented all... More

Nice campground but small. Staff was nice. Had trees but our site backed up to a residential wooden fence. This was disappointing. Close to Cape Henalopen State Park, nice for hiking. I probably would not go back because it was so small. Bath house was ok. Had a trailer park feel as opposed to a campground.

We have just got back from a week's vacation at Big Oaks Campground. We payed $800 for 1 week's stay in an old, musty smelling mobile home. When we arrived, the outside of the mobile looked awful!

I am sorry that the yard of the rental was not up to par. If you had come to us and let us know at the office, it would have been addressed immediately, and your husband wouldn't have had to bother with it. In this area, an average one room motel stay will cost over $1,500.00 per week. We are... More

We had never been to Big Oaks when I made our reservations for Aug 2012.
