Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

HORSES WELCOME! Why not run your horse on the beach, then come to our campsites to relax for the rest of your day. There is a fenced pasture positioned next to the sites so you can see your faithful friend enjoying some grass or hay. We have a new Zinger 29' trailer set up with a bunk room and another bedroom, full kitchen and bathroom. It can easily sleep six people. If you have your own RV, we have a full hook up at the same area. The pasture where your horse stays will also have hay, water and shelter with a run-in. This is a sanctuary for our animals. We have nine animals here, four horses (some minnies) and five donkeys (some minnies). By staying here, you will be helping us to support our animals. We are in Frankford, De which is close to all the beaches and parks. There are many shopping adventures awaiting you, either outlets or upcycle stores. If you just want to relax, there is a small pond out back stocked with bass and turtles. We have 17+ acres but we only use the front five acres and leave the rest for the deer, foxes, eagles, hawks and whatever else shows up. We believe this is Heaven on earth and would love to share it will you. So please come, stay at our farm and relax. We are here year round.

RV Site 02

Camping with animals and much more!

This campground is "hooked up"! On EACH site a picnic table with an umbrella, a wooden patio with a four person outdoor table & chairs, a hooded grill with wastebasket, and a hammock!! All this at a very reasonable fee. Then there's the fun of donkeys and ponies grazing right behind you. And we found that if you wanted, bison meat is available for sale right across the street. 😉

Why Not Acres Campsite 3

Great!

After a long day at the beach, Marion’s bathhouse was a warm welcome. Only a few steps from campsites 2 and 3. We appreciated the custom fire pits for easy cooking.

Great Stay at Why Not Acres!

This was such an exquisite stay for me and my friends! We enjoyed the wonderful hospitality and flexibility that the hosts offered, as well as their BEAUTIFUL farm and campsites. The bathroom/shower/outdoor sink was so nice to have and really came in handy. We also were pleasantly surprised by how equipped each site was. Each had a fire starting bin, and outlet, a beautiful fire pit with grill feature, and a hammock. Also firewood being provided was the cherry on top. Genuinely such a nice stay and was sad to leave so soon. Would definitely recommend to a friend, or return myself!!

Lovely farm by the beach

This place was lovely and had everything we needed! We ended up bring too much stuff. The camper comfortably fit 4 adults, 1 baby and 1 kid! This was such an easy way to spend time at the beach. The farm is about 25 minutes from the beach, it was nice to come back to our peaceful little camp site. I love the farm’s mission, using the profits to support the animals. Good people.

We loved our stay! Marian and her husband are very friendly and accommodating. We stayed in their camper which is very clean, spacious and cozy. It’s close to Assetague Island which is great too. We definitely want to come back and even tent camp at one of their sites too.
