No tent locations

website states minimum of two nights and they don't have a place for a tent. How do you call yourself a campground if you don't even have a place for tents.

Super clean! Great R&R!!

I thoroughly enjoyed the week I spent here. The campground is well-maintained. Everything I needed was here. The relaxing Hammocks and watching the sunset provided much-needed rest and relaxation.

Family friendly

we camped Cape Charles KOA on Memorial Day Weekend. Everything flowed easy starting at checkin. We paid in full in advance so we just had to go to the ranger station and get our site info. A staff member directed us to our site. The sites are spacious and clean.

The bathroom facilities are large and well kept up. They have a large store that has a large selection of items you may need. They provide trash pick up all day long.

Situated in the Chesapeake Bay, they have a large beach front area with plenty of room for chairs and blankets. They have a great pool area with plenty of seating. There is a restaurant at the beach, and they had bands playing there at night.
