Pitch your tent or park your RV on our historic 36-acre blueberry farm. Picnic tables, charcoal grills, and fire pits are located on lots. We are a newly renovated farm that has an almost 60-year history. Very close to Delaware and Ocean City Beaches! Our property is also monitored by security cameras. Once owned by Tom Ryan and part of the 100+ acres of Ryan's Berry Farm, Kingsley Orchards now owns the middle 36 acres and market building of the historic farm. Efforts paid off and the farm and market opened in June 2017 with a beautiful crop of blueberries and many multi-generational customers coming back with their children. The best outcome has been the opportunity to share growing food with children and helping them learn a love for outdoors and farming. Many of the customers remember their own grandparents bringing them to the farm! We had customers from age 1 to 89 picking blueberries We also offer a climate controlled venue for weddings, birthday parties, & any other events. Cypress Winds (302-362-1036)

Lovely location. Host is very attentive and kind. Power works great and water is conveniently located. Property is very large but parking is very close to owners home which is on property. Not bad but something to be aware of. We had a great time

We had a wonderful time at Jill’s property for an overnight trip with our camper. We had the whole place to ourselves and enjoy the peaceful countryside while exploring the pond and beautiful tree covered driveway. Jill’s communication has been the best we’ve experienced this far!!

Beautiful site - they aren’t kidding about the stunning sunsets! Quick drive to some stunning hiking spots - Trap Pond, Assateague, etc. Having a plumbed in bathroom and hot shower was an added bonus.

Great site and beautiful property overall! There was plenty of space for our fifth wheel to turn around and park. Power and water is conveniently located, and easy to use. The location is convenient to Cambridge and Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge. Great site and friendly host - we will be back if we are in the area again!

We had a lovely stay this past weekend! We had the whole place to ourselves which was nice. Dale delivered our firewood and farm fresh eggs right to our campsite upon arrival. Site 5 is the furthest away from the farm market which is where the bathroom and shower are located, maybe a 10 minute walk. The shower is outdoors, but equipped with hot water, enclosed in a stall and very clean. There was some noise from an event being held at the venue behind the market one night, but it was far enough away that it didn’t bother us. The only downsides to the site were lack of shade and privacy from the road that runs behind the property. I would definitely recommend bringing a canopy for shade. If I stayed again, I’d probably choose site 4 as there are tall patches of wildflower meadows in between each site, which provides a little more privacy. Overall, a great place to stay and very convenient for all of the places we wanted to visit nearby!

For my first time camping, ever, this is perfect. The sites are fairly close to each other but it didnt bother me at all. Lil lake near the site, pretty clean and clear directions too. Honestly, the place is simple but often simple is best. And I think this place was the best

We loved our stay at the blueberry farm! It was peaceful and quiet and such a pretty setting. The bathroom was clean and the shower hot and convenient. It was an easy drive to Bethany Beach and Assateague Island to hit the beach. We ended up preferring the quieter beach at Assateague Island and returned there over the crowds at Bethany Beach. It was nice to go back at night and enjoy the beautiful setting and have a fire and relax. The campsites are spacious and we had no problem setting up two tents. They will be even nicer when the planted trees get bigger for some shade, but the row of trees along the road did provide some shade already. The farm market and blueberries were a great plus. Thank you! We would come back. :)

We loved camping at Loblolly: The Small Spot because it's beautiful in the woods. The landscape is forest that surrounds the mostly quiet Airport. You can ride for many miles from your spot around the airport and hardly see a car, just beautiful farms and trees. Everything is clean and feels snug and safe. At night, solar lights outline the storybook home of your hosts. A great location with easy access to highways or country roads. We'll be visiting again!

Beautiful place in a peaceful area of Lower Slower Delaware :) The bathroom and shower are nice. The campsites are huge and well spaced out. It was great to give the kids room to roam. Everything was clean, quiet, and comfortable. We 100% plan on returning, hopefully next time when the blueberries are ripe. Use bug spray, there were tons of ticks.

We had such a terrific time at Jill's place camping with the family this weekend. Jill was one of the best hosts we have ever had. The site had a beautiful view of the pond and trails and plenty quiet spots to sit and relax. Jill let the kids pick flowers and we loved having the opportunity to go inside her workshop where she makes the best cremes and hand made ceramic pots. We ended up buying a box full as gifts for friends and family. This site is highly recommended and we are definitely looking forward to staying here again.
