Best Glamping near Heathsville, VA

Was a nice place to stay about 1.5 hour drive to either Virginia Beach or assateage. Walked to the water with the kids to check out the millions of fiddler crabs and a few blue crabs and a hermit crab. I would suggest some bug spray if you plan on staying

Our family of five (Kids: 13, 10, 7) recently stayed at Virginia Landing, and it was an great experience overall, especially for families with kids. However, with some small park improvements visits could be enhanced. 

The campground provided opportunities for exploration and outdoor activities that kept our kids entertained throughout our three night stay. The park is wide-open, which provided plenty of space for kids to roam and explore. Virginia Landing is located right on the shore and we felt perfectly comfortable allowing the kids to freely run around and engage in activities they don't typically (i.e. clamming, kite flying).

The park had a spacious layout that allowed for easy RV maneuvering. Whether you're a seasoned RV enthusiast or a camper just starting out, you'll appreciate the space. All sites were  accessible and comfortable for campers.

The campground staff was also helpful in guiding us to our site and providing any necessary assistance, making the whole process hassle-free.

We believe a small playground and spruced up facilities would enhance the stay for families.

Machicomoco State Park is one of Virginia’s brand-new parks in a great location on the York River! All the facilities are new and very clean. I love that the campground bathrooms are all unisex/family bathrooms and there are plenty of them, at least eight I believe. The non-electric sites are in little loops off the main road. You have to park on the road and walk all your gear in. It’s not very far though, I counted about 100 steps to site 13, the one farthest from the road. The non-electric sites back up to trees but are not particularly shaded or private. There is a water spigot in each loop. The sites are meticulously maintained. Lots to do in park including trails, a car-top boat launch, and tons of information on the Native American tribes of the area. Definitely worth a visit!

We stayed near the water with full hookups. This place is absolutely beautiful and must have been amazing in its prime. No updates are being made and most everything was shut down. If you could find a ranger you could sign out volleyballs, or other outside game equipment but the odds of seeing a ranger was slim. Bathrooms were clean but could use some serious updating, only half of the toilets were working. Laundry room was clean and well care for. Regulars stated that the place is just being run down and that each year it gets worse. We enjoyed the quiet and peaceful atmosphere, but we were only there using the site as a central location to visit area attractions like Virginia Beach, Ocean City etc. Everyone kept to themselves and it was always quiet.

I LOVE this park. The tent sites are awesome and mine have always been pretty private feeling despite being somewhat near others. Bathhouses are always SO clean and heated in the winter. So appreciate the recycling bins. I love the sharks’ teeth display in the shop and when I was there they were working on putting bones together of a whale that was found! At the time of my visit a couple of weeks ago there was a bit of algae in the water that could cause irritation to stomach and skin, so just be mindful of this. I did hike down to fossil beach but definitely avoided the water. If you’re anything like me, traveling for peace and quiet and solitude, I highly recommend Sunday and Monday nights if you have flexibility with jobs etc. It was SUPER quiet during my stay. Absolutely wonderful. Oh - and check for ticks and bring your bug spray. Gotta love humid Virginia summers! I had site A22 and it was away from a bit compared to other sites.

We had a wonderful time here. We enjoyed all the family activities there are to do. We went bike riding and also enjoyed that this campground is Golf Carr friendly. The grandkids loved all the water slides and met such wonderful people. We made lifetime memories.

Cottage 4 stars- clean but floors needed some attention, a bit cramped, somewhat outdated, large porch Campground 5 stars- bustling on weekends, quiet throughout weekdays, clean and well maintained Amenities 5 stars- great weekly activity schedule, great pool, putt putt etc. Staff 5 stars- Very friendly

Bethpage is our all time favorite campground! We’ve been going for several years and it never disappoints. The lake and pools are fantastic. We love having both options for spending some time in the water. The playgrounds are large and fun for the younger kids. With all paved streets the campground is perfect for bike riding. The sites are all very large and accommodating for groups of multiple campers. Overall, it’s just an amazing place to spend some time camping!

There are so many activities for kids at this campground. There are waters slides, playgrounds, fishing, water rentals, and campground sponsored fun.

What’s most noticeable are all of the golf carts. There’s a lot of area to cover, so most bring their carts or you can rent one. Open field camping mostly with full hookups.

About half of the campground are permanent sites. These are neatly organized like a neighborhood in the woods and along the water.

We stayed here Sept 2020 during tropical storm and covid, lol. Was a great safe location in port of storm, the sites mostly drained well. Very few sites had issues. Was a wonderful stay, campground is huge, bring your golf cart or rent one there. They did a great job social distancing the management, while maintaining Cdc guidelines even for activities. Of course not everyone there social distanced but we wont go there. Lol. We attended the movie night drive in, was lots of space to park your golf cart more than 6 foot apart and enjoy the movie. Great job Greys Point!
