About

Janes Island State Park, at Crisfield on Maryland's lower Eastern Shore, offers over 105 campsites (used here as DNR's own stated floor figure), 50 with electric hookups, plus three centrally located bathhouses. The park's own undeveloped namesake island (accessible only by boat, over 30 miles of water trails through salt marsh) has no camping of its own - only the mainland campground is included here. Cabins and a lodge are separate lodging, not included in the campsite total above. Reservable through the Maryland Park Service's own ReserveAmerica/Aspira contract, hosted at parkreservations.maryland.gov (not a reserveamerica.com subdomain, though it runs the same underlying platform - confirmed live, "Powered by Aspira").

Fees

Campsite Non-Electric $14.00-$30.00/night, Campsite Electric $27.50-$28.50/night. Displayed rates are the vendor's own published BASE rates and do NOT reflect holiday/weekend/residency surcharges or a pet fee (Maryland applies these as add-ons rather than publishing a separate resident/non-resident base rate the way some other states do). Pets permitted if leashed and controlled at all times (only full-service Cabins #1/#2 and camper Cabins B/C allow pets, not general lodging).
