[quote=Anonymous]We did the state park at Assateague for a few years, then Cape Henlopen. We used to go over Memorial Day because usually it is too early for flies and many mosquitos, until one year when it was unusually warm and we were eaten alive by both. After that, we started doing day trips. Assateague was nice, but the sun is unrelenting, even with a shade house, sunscreen, etc. At Henlopen, there is more shade in the campground, but it is further to the beach. If you do go to Assateague, heed the PP advice about sand stakes. We didn't know what we were doing the first year, and came back to our campsite after getting firewood to find our tent blowing down the road. I recall being able to use regular stakes at Henlopen. We did have issues with ticks and snakes at Henlopen, too. I went to change my DD diaper and she had ticks under it. We camp a lot, usually in western Maryland or Shenandoah, and have never had issues with ticks there.[/quote]
