Weekend Trip to Strawberry Crossroads

We visited the Strawberry Crossroads in early Nov to enjoy the fall foliage. We rented one of the small wooden cabins, which had 6 individual bunks with mats, a small fridge, a small table, a trash can, ceiling light and fan, and a cooler/heater. The land was beautiful with a lovely creek and a cute wooden bridge that crosses over it. We enjoyed the goats and chickens, and just the overall beautiful nature. The hosts were very responsive, kind, and relaxed. We had a great time and will recommend to friends/family.

Weekend Trip to Strawberry Crossroads

Camp site was easily accessible. Staff was accommodating for my late night arrival and helped get me into the cabin after a long day. There was a nice stack of firewood outside of the cabin. I didn’t use it because of wet weather and limited time at the site, but it was a welcome surprise. Inside has 6 bunks. I doubled up on mattresses since I was solo. Inside has a small refrigerator and remote controlled air conditioner, both worked well and AC helped ensure a solid nigts’s sleep. Inside flooring is carpeted and also has a small table and chair. Communication was timely and efficient. Bathhouse is about a 5 minute walk. Showers were clean, well maintained and had nice hot water. Would recommend if you’re looking for a quick accessible cabin near Ocean City.

what a charming campgrounds! The cabins are simple but very cozy! We had a queen mattress in our cabin (6) and it was surprisingly comfy! The bathhouse is a little bit of a trek but well appointed. The most delightful part of our stay was Cotton, the extremely friendly and adorable white goat, who nibbled sweetly on our hands and hopped up on our camp table causing a hilarious cascade of things falling and our group doubled over laughing. He is a real highlight of our stay. We’ll definitely be back!

We had such a fun time here its close to ocean city and about an hour from bethany, rehoboth, and assateague. There is a grill over fire pit i would recommend bringing your own fire starter and wood incase it rains, although they have plenty of wood. The fridge/freezer is a really nice size, we meal prepped everything which made it super easy to cook on the grill. The cabin had electricity, outlets inside, and ac. Bring -fitted sheets -pillows -blankets -outside chairs (if you want to sit around the firepit or lake) -outlet extender for groups bigger than 1 or 2 we had such a great time and the goats were adorable will definitely come again sometime.
