    First Landing State Park Campground

    Camping on the Chesapeake Bay

    Our family stayed at site 99 which is close to the bathhouse and camp host. It is also on one of the small roads that leads to a boardwalk to the beach. Thete are 4 boardwalks to the beach over the dunes so keep that in mind when booking your site. This is a pretty big campground and thereare many trees which are dense and it keeps a lot of the campsites private even though they may be close to each other. Some areas are more open with less privacy. The bathhouses are clean but not climate controlled in the summer so be ready for heat and humidity after showering. The staff, camp hosts, and rangers were allvery helpful. The campground is situated on the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia Beach. We loved the beach here because we have six small grandkids and they could play in thewater without the worry of large waves and heavy tides. The park also has many awesome trails that you can walk or bike. Also, dogs are totally allowed on the beach as long as they are on a leash during any time of the day or night. There are no lifeguards on duty. There are many tent sites and e/w hook up sites. It definitely seemed to be tent heavy while we were there this time. We loved our stay here and have already booked a time to go back in April.

    North Bayshore Campground

    Great place for enjoying the water!

    This is a small family oriented campground close to Sandbridge beach. They are located on a small waterway that leads to Back Bay. Good fishing and wonderful area to kayak or paddle board. You can even bring a boat. The bathhouse is clean, climate controlled , and never too busy. There’s a game room for relaxing or playing air hockey, pool, and fussball. The owners have corn hole available as well. There’s a small swimming pool in case you want to take a dip although due to excessive rain the week before our trip it was closed for cleanup. There’s a basketball court and small playground. This is a low lying area and standing water at some sites after heavy rains can be an issue. There are a few cabins to rent, pop ups and a bunkhouse camper as well as full and water/elec. hookup RV sites, waterfront sites and tent sites. We’ve stayed here several times and the owners and employees are always very welcoming and accommodating. Pets are allowed on leash and our dogs love it!

    Huge!

    I've lived in this region for 3 decades and never knew this campground was here. It is absolutely humongous! They have about every accommodation you could ask for. You can rent sites for RVs or tents, you can rent cabins, campers, and even glamping tents! Something like 4 pools, mini golf, several bathhouses, named streets, a little store that has a little of everything, very nice staff, a restaurant, small social gatherings for adults and children alike. Oh yeah, did I mention the staff were wonderful??

    BACK TO NATURE

    I stayed in one of their cottages during October. The cottage is furnished, has a queen size bed and 2 sets of bunk beds; nice living room/dining room combo, full kitchen with dishes, pots, etc.; TV; fireplace; outside deck with grill; and screen porch. There is also a firepit for enjoying the relaxing fire and evening quiet. You have to bring your own firewood. There is a grocery store about 6 minutes away for convenience. Trails, access to the Chesapeake Bay, Spanish moss. manned Visitor Center, privacy and security.

    Simple in the South

    Its nothing fancy. Good place for a natture hike, campfire amd one night tent camping. Plan on bringing your own water as there isn’t always running water (not sure why).

    First Landing State Park Campground

    First experience was a charm but...

    Camp site (Tent + Teardrop camping)

    • We stayed at two different camp sites, a tent only site and a RV site. First stay at the tent only site was great. It was well closed off from the other sites so nice and quiet. Really felt like camping in pure nature. (5 star)

    • If you are planning to stay at the RV site (Kendall loop), I would recommend staying away from the sites that are right next to the Shore Drive. You'll see/hear the cars driving by all night long. Those sites are #12,13,17,20,23,25,27,29. Also, site #5 is right in front of the bathhouse. We stayed at #12 and the smell was awful there. There are poison ivy near the fence so watch out. (3 star)

    -

    Facilities/ Amenities

    Bathrooms weren't maintained well. 2 of 3 sinks were clogged. There is a cleaning station and showers next to the Kendall bathhouse.

    -

    Surrounding area

    This campground has great access to the beach, and about 7 miles away from the boardwalk.

    Travel retreat

    I was there for a week for a work. It was a bit crowed for my liking. Your neighbors are extremely close to you. Seemed like they had a lot to do for children. I did like that they had a trolley that comes by and takes you to the oceanfront and they have a parking pass if you decide to take your car to the ocean front. I do not like that the quiet hours start at 11:00 pm. We had a new family rent the lot next to us and they were very loud. They started drinking in the early afternoon and by the evening they were pretty lit. Their music was blaring. I called the front office at 1115pm and no one picked and of course no one was there. They should at least have security around for instances like that.

    First Landing State Park Campground

    Great access to Virginia Beach shore and city activities

    Very nice state park. Sites are not large, but well separated by dense foliage. Electric and water hookups. Free hot showers. Some road noise from Rt 60, but also the sound of waves from the ocean if you get a site on the ocean side.

    Many RV sites are listed as 20 ft max, but we fit our 24 ft trailer into one with room left to park the tow vehicle, although not enough room to use the fire pit. Check site photos.

    There is a trail center nearby in the state park with a number of trails. Many things to do in Virginia Beach and Norfolk.

Guide to Corolla

Glamping near Corolla, North Carolina typically includes canvas tents, yurts, and enhanced cabins with proximity to both the Atlantic Ocean and Currituck Sound. The coastal climate creates summer highs around 85°F with high humidity, while winter temperatures rarely drop below 30°F. Most elevated glamping structures in this region sit on wooden platforms to prevent flooding during coastal storms.

What to do

Paddling opportunities: North Bayshore Campground provides direct access to Back Bay waterways. "We stayed here for two nights during our trip along the Outer Banks. Our boys enjoyed kayaking around the sound and riding their bikes to the playground," shares Stephen B. of Outer Banks West-Currituck Sound KOA.

Beach access: Sandbridge Beach sits just minutes from several camping areas for a less crowded alternative to Virginia Beach. "We stayed at North Landing Beach for a week during the 4th of July holiday and while it was very busy, it was quiet and very family oriented. The beach was quiet and relaxing with beautiful sunsets," notes Brandi I. of North Landing Beach.

Fishing options: Multiple campgrounds offer dedicated fishing areas along canals and waterways. "This is a small family oriented campground close to Sandbridge beach. They are located on a small waterway that leads to Back Bay. Good fishing and wonderful area to kayak or paddle board. You can even bring a boat," explains Tina C. about North Bayshore Campground.

What campers like

Waterfront views: Many glamping sites provide direct water views across Currituck Sound. "We had a great view of the water and we could see the Currituck lighthouse at night," mentions Stephen B. about Outer Banks West-Currituck Sound KOA.

Clean facilities: Modern bathhouses and shower facilities are consistently mentioned in reviews. "The bathhouse is clean, climate controlled, and never too busy," notes Tina C. about North Bayshore Campground. Similarly, at Northwest River Park & Campground, "Overall amazed at the cleanliness of the campground. The staff is very friendly. The park was very quiet going into the night," shares Joseph H.

Evening programming: Many campgrounds offer organized activities after dark. "They also host various bands and other activities throughout the summer months," reports Cliff M. about North Landing Beach. At Sea Mist RV Campground, military families appreciate the extensive recreational equipment rentals available through base MWR services.

What you should know

Seasonal weather challenges: Low-lying coastal areas can experience flooding during heavy rains. "This is a low lying area and standing water at some sites after heavy rains can be an issue," cautions Tina C. about North Bayshore Campground. Similarly at Chesapeake Campground, one camper notes, "A storm hit right after I got here and now I'm sitting in about 8 inches of water!"

Insects can be prevalent: Coastal environments breed mosquitoes and other biting insects. "When we were there the midgets were so bad our RV was covered in them at night," reports Michelle C. about Outer Banks West-Currituck Sound KOA.
