10 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Several RV parks near Aylett provide full hookup options for motorhomes and travel trailers. American Heritage RV Park in Williamsburg features 160 sites with concrete pads, full hookups including 30/50 amp service, and cable TV connections. "All of the spaces have concrete pads, full hook-ups, and cable TV," noted one visitor about American Heritage. Americamps RV Resort in Ashland offers pull-through sites with 30/50 amp service on level gravel pads, while Thousand Trails Chesapeake Bay in Reedville and Thousand Trails Williamsburg accommodate big rigs with full hookup options. Most parks in the region remain open year-round, though Grey's Point Camp and Bethpage Camp-Resort operate seasonally from April through mid-November.
Within 30 miles of Aylett, RV travelers should note varying cell service quality, with most parks reporting adequate Verizon coverage. Dump stations are available at all full-hookup parks, with Military Park Fort AP Hill offering this service despite prohibiting campfires. Pet policies are generally accommodating, with designated dog parks at Americamps and several other locations. During summer months, reservations become essential as waterfront sites fill quickly. A review mentioned that American Heritage RV Park has "very convenient access to Williamsburg, with plenty of shopping and restaurants nearby." Most parks provide propane filling services on-site, though prices vary considerably compared to off-site options.

TravelerA beautiful campground. Nice wooded sites with decent space between sites. Bathroom and laundry were clean. Showers were just ok. Nice trails and the walk along the James
river was nice. Will definitely stay again.
TravelerDO NOT WAIST YOUR MONEY! THIS IS A SCAM!! Our 3 campsites flooded with 6 inches of water within an hour of arriving before high tide. Very difficult to get ahold of staff due to limited hours of business. I have requested a refund for failure to render services due to unusable campsites. I have left several voicemails and sent emails with attached pictures. Management has been avoiding my phone calls, will not call back. Very unprofessional. I received one call from"management" at 7:20 pm to tell me that he received a message to call me, but he hasn't looked into why he needs to call me and he will call back the next day. I never heard back from him and that was a week ago. I have followed up daily with phone calls without a return phone call. My family makes several camping trips through the year, will never return here.
TravelerGenerous sized sites but only semi-private. Excellent facilities
GuideEnjoying this campground. Close to all the attractions. Incredible staff, super friendly. Pool and game room are wonderful.
TravelerNote to Self: No Primitive Site reservations...EVER. I love this park. It's situated far enough from the busy traffic noise...beautiful Virginia city of Hayes. When I arrived, it was such a scorching day and there wasn't nearly enough tree cover to shield my tent from the "son of Hades". Suffered heat exhaustion almost to the point of death...Literally. Night was my only respite. If it hadn't been for the wonderful camp attendants who came to my rescue, it would've been an utterly failed experience. Bless their hearts. Other than that, this was a great training experience for an old Novice camper. Now that I'm a bit more practiced, I'm going back 😁, armed with knowledge and more confidence.
TravelerSomething for everybody; long term slots, primitive camping, with electricity and water, with full hookups, day use ramps for Lake Anna, huge covered picnic area for large gatherings, rv sites in the woods and others on the edge of large field. Staff are great.
TravelerThe good: super clean and new restrooms / showers. The entire parking immaculate. Stayed at site 12. Offers water views and shade. Site 13 is similar and is probably the most ideal site.
Cons: zero privacy. The sites are basically scattered around an open grassy area and fairly close together.
Be aware: sites are not vehicle accessible. Need to carry your kit 50-75 yards.
ScoutIt was a well maintained campsite. Clean bathrooms and great hikes to fossil beach.
TravelerWe enjoyed our stay at American Heritage. We were offered a change of our assigned site if we would prefer to be closer to the bath house. We preferred staying where we were until we discovered that the electric hook-up was far enough away on the grass that we couldn't reach. (We have a little Scamp 13 and the plug was just a little too short.) We had a pull-through site(every other row was pull-through).
It had a full hook-up. The cover on the electric post was missing rivets, so we had to put it back in place ourselves, but there was no problem with the electric. We used 30 Amp for the RV and plugged in our backup battery to the 15 amp plug. The water pressure was good and consistent. We've had problems at other RV sites. We used the sewer connection with no problem at the end.
We did not have an umbrella at the picnic table and seriously considered buying a screen tent because we stayed for 4 days and it was HOT. Some sites had more shade. In fact, that's one thing we'd change next time. The pool was wonderful, the showers were clean and we used the laundry with no problems--they take quarters and washing and drying one load cost $5.00.
The staff was very friendly and responsive. Overall, we had a great stay and would stay again.
RV camping near Aylett, Virginia spans across several counties in the Virginia coastal region where elevations rarely rise above 200 feet. The area's mild climate allows most campgrounds to operate from early spring through late autumn, with average summer highs reaching 90°F and winter temperatures seldom dropping below 30°F. Campsites throughout the region provide varied terrain from riverside locations to wooded settings, with gravel and concrete pads common at most RV parks.
Crabbing excursions: Head to Thousand Trails Chesapeake Bay where guests can access the park's dedicated crabbing pier. "We had never been crabbing and this beautiful rv park has its own crabbing pier. There is boating, hiking, watching wild life and so many pretty birds," reports one visitor.
Local historic exploration: Military Park Cheatham Annex serves as an excellent base for exploring Colonial landmarks. "This is an amazing recreational campground for military families and retirees that is located right on the York River between Williamsburg and Yorktown. It is immediately adjacent to the Colonial Parkway for easy access to historic Jamestown," notes one military camper.
Brewery visits: Americamps RV Resort offers proximity to local breweries within walking distance. "Right across the street (a short walk depending on where your site is in the park) there is a brewery that also serves food," mentions one reviewer who appreciated this convenient amenity.
Water recreation options: Bethpage Camp-Resort earns praise for its water activities. "The lake and pools are fantastic. We love having both options for spending some time in the water," shares a frequent visitor. Another adds, "Pool complex is great, playgrounds are a hit with our son."
Level, well-maintained sites: Campers appreciate the quality of sites at American Heritage RV Park. "Our site was very nice site #10, a leveled concrete site with room to park our towed vehicle while still attached to our Motor Home. We also had a level concrete patio with a picnic table," reports a satisfied camper.
Organized activities: Many campgrounds coordinate events for guests. "Casino night was a blast! Overall a family friendly place with plenty for the kids to do," mentions a visitor to Bethpage Camp-Resort, while another notes "Sweet Justice played this year on the Saturday we were there... phenomenal band."
Campfire restrictions: Military Park Fort AP Hill prohibits campfires at sites. "The Bad: limited cell service (StarLink or similar is your best option) no campfires at sites," reports a military camper, though they still rated their experience highly.
Weather considerations: Prepare for rain impacts at Thousand Trails Williamsburg. One visitor noted, "We arrived on opening day for the season. They had unfortunately been a victim of the rain and the main road to the campground had washed out. Alternative routes were set up to enter and exit."
Site selection limitations: Some parks have specific allocation procedures. "Because sites are not assigned in advance, we could not choose sites that worked well for our group," explains a visitor to American Heritage RV Park who traveled with multiple campers.
Water features: Grey's Point Camp offers multiple water options for children. "There are so many activities for kids at this campground. There are waters slides, playgrounds, fishing, water rentals, and campground sponsored fun," reports one family.
Transportation planning: Consider renting or bringing a golf cart at larger resorts. "Quite a bit of area to cover, so most bring their carts or you can rent one," advises a Grey's Point visitor, while another notes at Bethpage Camp-Resort, "Golf carts were difficult to reserve. Golf carts were only available for pickup at 1/2pm the day of your rental."
Playground options: Many parks feature multiple play areas for children. One visitor to Thousand Trails Harbor View shared, "There is a basketball court and nice paved roads to ride bikes on," while noting the pool includes a dedicated kiddie section.
Cell service quality: Service varies significantly between parks. "Verizon 2 bars" at Military Park Cheatham Annex reports one camper, while at Thousand Trails Chesapeake Bay, a visitor noted, "T-mobile gateway internet sucks here, but Starlink works well from the site we are in."
Site dimensions: Big rig owners should verify appropriate sites. "Our 42-foot fifth wheel was placed in back-in site #136, which— like the other back-in sites— has a tree planted at the rear that prevents fully backing in," warns one American Heritage RV Park visitor, contrasting with Americamps where a camper appreciated that their site "was a pull through and we didn't have to unhook to fit!"
Hookup variations: Most parks offer full hookups, but configurations differ. At Thousand Trails Chesapeake Bay, "Level sites and they all have full hookups," reports a camper. Another visitor to Bethpage Camp-Resort noted the convenience of their site design: "Sewer is in 2 locations for each site."
