Personal Comments:
I tried to get into Frontiertown, their sister campground and I can honestly say I was very happy that we could not get in.....Fort Whaley is a very easy 20 minute drive to Ocean City, Assateague Island, and many other activities.....we had reservations for a crabbing/fishing trip with LUCKY BREAK (443-513-2006) located at Frontiertown...so we had to drive thru the campground to the Marina and I was not overly impressed with Frontiertown.....I'll drive the extra 20 minutes to have nice open spaces.....land lots of shade at Fort Whaley and much less congestion.....one draw back is A lane sites next to the road - if it rains you will get washed out.......they are large and shaded...close to the pool and all activities...if you are thinking of them - take the rear sites....if we re-visit the area we will definitely go back there!
No, that wind you heard wasn't Hurricane George, it was just Mack letting out a long sigh of relief 
Glad to hear you enjoyed your trip
