We have been going to Frontier Town twice a summer for a number of years. Recently, the ownership changed and our last visit was not one of our best. Typically, the Internet has been a little unreliable. However, this year it was terrible!!!! In a time when folks need to have access to the Internet for schooling and work, it was very disappointing to not have consistent access and the speed when we could connect was dreadful.
Another concern is the recent site expansion. A significant number of new sites have been opened for camping but none of the group accommodations have been expanded. The onsite restaurant, pool, water park, bar have not been expanded at all. In past years, the demand on these facilities has been significant. Now, with the expanded campsites, it is reasonable to expect the use of these facilities will be very limited.
The price charged for camping at Frontier Town is significant. For that level of expense, facilities should be at a level to justify the significant cost. We love the location and general layout of this campground but suggest the new owners consider some much needed expansion and improved services.

Our vacation weekend at frontier town is shall I say left a lot to be desired. I first start with the positives. This place has great amenities attached to the campground the fresh fruit and produce was a nice surprise along with a very decent camp store that had a lot of stuff that if you were in a bind or forgot something this place had it without you getting raked over the coals with the price everything was fairly priced. Now to the cons. This place was the loudest campground I have ever visited. They claim they have a quiet time hours from 11-8 but it doesn't get enforced so that left my wife and I and two children trying to sleep while there was yelling from adults and teenagers and golf carts still cruising around until after 3 am. More on the golf carts. If you have small children like myself please make sure to pack your eyes in the back of your head as this campground is very dangerous just trying to walk to the camp store. My kids were almost hit a couple times by kids and adults bird boxing ( driving like there blindfolded) in their golf carts and bikes so that made the trip stressful. So after a night of no sleep I made easiest decision and pack up as after a night like that I had little faith that it was going to be any better and that's when it became comical. When handing in our parking pass and explaining the unpleasant situation I was asked if I seen any park staff handling the situation and my reply was the only people I seen were about 5 guys walking around dressed as cowboys that I believe we're just walking around entertaining the kids. At that point i was asked if I wanted to talk to management about getting a credit for a future visit and I stated if they would like to talk to me about that then they have my phone number and email. That was a week ago and no response not even a rate my visit email. If you plan on staying here please do me a favor and read all the reviews on this place because it was quite disappointing knowing that many others had a similar experience.

Wow my wife and I have been doing Ocean City bike for the last 14 years, we didn't get to go last year due to Covid so we rolled it over to this year. Wow what a shock we got when we called to set it up. The prices have gotten totally out of hand for just 3 nights they want over $700.00 to stay. I went on their rates online but they don't show 2021 instead they show 2020 rates which are reasonable per night. You can stay at a 5star motel on the boardwalk cheaper than you can at Frontier town and the rest of the camp grounds that the new owners have bought. You can go to other camp grounds in MD, PA VA, NY and De for a quarter of the price they are asking.

We rented two cabins for the final Halloween weekend 10/27-10/30/22. We chose the newer section of the campground just passed the office. We stayed in cabins HH08 and HH09, and booked both cabins a year out. The checkin process was very easy, but we realized the price changed on on cabin (increased) after we added a golf cart several months after the initial reservation. Luckily we caught the error and received a $235 credit. We were told that prices increased in time and changing the reservation also changed the cabin pricing.
Cabin HH08 was descent except for the very uncomfortable mattress in the main bedroom. Also be advised that the bed in the main bedroom are too large for the room and difficult to get into due to the narrow space on each side of the bed.
Cabin HH09 has issues... when we arrived we noticed two window hvac units on this cabin. Also we noticed inside a portable space heater next to the dining table. As the evening progressed the outside temp dropped to nearly 45 degrees and we couldn’t get the two wall heating units to operate. Having a special needs daughter we were concerned about this and called the emergency number listed on the information sheet. One of the maintenance men showed within 10 minutes and tried to get the units to work. We pointed out the portable heater next to the table and he commented that someone must have left it. He tried to get the units to work, then stepped outside to make a call. When he returned, he advised that “this was the cabin that they were having problems with and there was no power to the heating units”. He said that housekeeping would bring by a couple space heaters. The heaters were supplied and plugged in, but a few minutes later, they tripped the breaker and maintenance had to be called again. Finally after moving heaters around we were able to get our daughter down to sleep.
Lastly, the internet was down all weekend and after visiting the offer we were told that it was being worked on. Even during the “candy bar bingo” the staff joked on the microphone that they didn’t need to hear about the internet, they knew it had problems.
Overalls, we understand things happen, but paying nearly $1,300 for three nights in a campground in a “newer” cabin you would expect it to be much nicer.
I commend the emergency maintenance staff for trying to solve an issue that was obviously known by management t be an issue. But criticize management for not making guests aware of these issues in advance, or at least having everything in place regarding the heating issue. FYI, we never saw anyone working on the internet issue and had to rely on personal hotspots to get work accomplished over the weekend.

While we made our own fun as a family, the experience at Frontier Town was incredibly disappointing, especially considering the high price. Be aware there is NO RECYCLING, which is mind-blowing considering recycling is table stakes in 2021, and campsites generate an excess of bottles, cans, etc that can easily be recycled....yet all end up in their overflowing dumpsters headed to landfills. As others have already stated, we were repeatedly told there were no golf carts available, even though there were 15-20 unused golf carts parked in their lot the entire time. No one (staff included) wore masks inside the registration office, camp store, restaurants or crowded shuttle buses, despite posted signage. Overall the lack of attention and state of the facilities were pretty shocking. Given the price, we had expected an upgrade from our typical camping/RV experience. That was not the case. It was our first time visiting, and will be our last.

We went there for our vacation and took our grandchildren for seven days. We got there 45 minutes early and had to pay $25 for early arrival. Lady at the counter was rude and said thats just the way it is even though we were paying for entire week. Our site was terrible and had alot of mud and site was small could not leave truck parked there. It seems like a money pit to us and we talked to others that were camped by us and they all said they would not be back. These big Campground so called Resorts have forgotten what got them there.

If you like spending a week in a Nascar infield, this is the place for you. Cars, RVs and golf carts going on all day & most evenings.. We stayed in a cabin that was less comfortable than an Army barrack. The kitchen was a 2X4 with no oven, just a dingy toaster oven and that for 3 adults & 5 children. We weren't allowed food or drinks by the pool and the food prices were outrageous, so with 8 people, you can just imagine!!! The only nice things were the pools and the staff was very nice but other than that, go to Yogi Bear, Jellystone Park...WAY BETTER

Dreadfully Boring! I thought that maybe it'd be fun for us all as a family. But it was an absolute bore. You spend tons of money for little entertainment. The lodging alone was well over $600.00 That's not including activities or food. Skip it save your cash for much better places. Hershey park. Williamsburg, even six flags were much more fun. Not to mention much cheaper!

We've been going to this campground for over 20 years and have stayed in the fall to take advantage of the lower rates. Since the new owners took over, prices have doubled plus they have added a $10/day resort fee when most of the amenities are not available in the fall. Our reservations (made a year in advance) were screwed up and, although we had paid the fee to guarantee our site, it was not available for the first 3 days we had reserved. The warm, friendly staff, who always made customers a priority, isn't there either. Sun Outdoors now has a monopoly on the campgrounds In OC so we will be going to a hotel in the future. We've also found that they are overpriced elsewhere. In Kentucky, almost double the competition. Look elsewhere if you can - don't support a company that's trying to profit off the backs of hard-working people in a tough economy.
