Answer
Many campgrounds near Ocean City, Maryland allow leashed pets with breed, count, or fee limits—policies are not universal. Assateague camping adds stricter wildlife and food-storage rules.
Never leave pets in hot RVs or cars. Peak summer Ocean City ocean beaches also restrict dogs by season, so a pet-friendly campsite does not equal all-day beach access.
Cross-check park rules, the Pets FAQ, and dog beach rules before you book.
