"Our site was pull through, not sure how we would get through if there was a full campground, luckily we had room to move around.
Your very close to Busch Gardens, Watercountry and Williamsburg."
"The location cannot be beat. There is a Harris Teeter close by and you can be at Colonial Williamsburg within 15 minutes."
"The sites are quiet, very spacious, nicely spaced, some surprisingly so, but many are deceptively unlevel, particularly on the outside of the loops, and are heavily wooded."
"A bit of a long walk to the bathroom, as we need to walk around the entire loop to get to it. Gorgeous, spacious sites with electric and water at each site. Some sites back up to the St."
$46 - $235 / night
"The campground is very close to all Williamsburg activities. A great walking trail was right down the road."
"It is only minutes away with other activities for young kids near by including mini golf and a Ridley’s museum. The campground was very family oriented and quaint."
$69 - $160 / night
"This park was very convenient to Williamsburg, Richmond, and Virginia Beach. The staff was exceptionally friendly and accommodating. The bathrooms were clean, air conditioned, and well supplied."
"The campground is also close to Colonial Williamsburg, and a little over an hour away (depending on traffic) from Virginia Beach and First Landing State Park. "
"Sites 11 through 18 are in a loop around a nice kids playground, with trees surrounding the sites and glimmers of Kings Creek in the background."
"I enjoyed the location and the thought of being on a military installations always give me a very safe and welcome feeling. "
"We've stayed here pretty often as it's only a few hours from home and near everything in Williamsburg, Virginia. The park is against the James river and theres easy access to the riverside."
"Chippokes State Park is located on the grounds of an old historic plantation, actually one if the original plantations in the area dating back to the 1600’s."
"It is a serene campground with beautiful walking trails. All the amenities for our two toddlers too… big pool outside, plus an inside pool and hottub. Also, a park, put-put + arcade room!"
$25 - $75 / night
"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."
"Not a fan of the deep gravel around the fire pit and picnic area. Hard to walk in. Verizon 1-2 bars"
"Lots of annual sites; they’re scattered around the park for the most part. 50/30 amp full hook ups. Large tent area with electric and water if you want to be in groups."
"My first time with Thousand Trails and it’s odd that you pick your spot once you get there. They were trying online check in but it didn’t work. Very clean quiet at night."
$10 - $25 / night
"This is an amazing recreational campground for military families and retirees that is located right on the York River between Williamsburg and Yorktown."
"Close to historic Williamsburg and Yorktown. We will be back several times."
ScoutVery clean and easy setup. The campsites on the A loop are a little more on an angle, they converted tent site lots to camper lots so they come with a level tent area as well.
The pool doesn’t look like it’s been opened in years but there is a little beach area near the welcome center.
GuideLove this campground. Great people and staff, well maintained sites. T-mobile gateway internet sucks here, but Starlink works well from the site we are in. Level sites and they all have full hookups.
LegendThis is a campground in one of Virginia’s most popular state parks. Campsites are right on the beach, with only a sheltering dune between you and the water. Aside from the incredible beach, there are ranger programs, an educational visitor center, cafe and shop. In addition to swimming at the beach, however, the campground is adjacent to a unique and historic Cypress swamp that is a National Natural Landmark. In this part of the park there are incredible hiking trails and boardwalks into the swamp, and the Trail Center also has educational exhibits and ranger programs. The swamp side also has nice camper cabins that are peaceful and quiet. Something for everyone!
LegendThere may be a bit of confusion about camping opportunities at Cheatham Annex Bass. It used to be that there was only one campground for the whole base, with a combo of RV sites and tent sites. The options have expanded and changed: a brand new RV park was built several miles away on the northside of the base, and it has its own brand new Rec Center and bath facilities etc. The Kings Creek Campground is on the south side where the old RV park used to be, but is now for tent camping only. There are still the remnant water and electric hookups available, and each site has plenty of grass for setting up tents, or you can set up on the cement pad. Each site has a picnic table, only some have fire rings. Sites 11 through 18 are in a loop around a nice kids playground, with trees surrounding the sites and glimmers of Kings Creek in the background. Sites 1-10 in the adjacent loop are right on the water where Kings Creek enters the York River, and the sites circle round a nice picnic area. Sites 6-7 are currently not being rented out as it has been discovered that the gravesite of a Revolutionary War soldier is located right there. Both tent loops have close access to a nice clean bathhouse, and there is good proximity to the base golf course and a really nice outdoor swimming pool. A great fishing pier nearby extends out into the York River. The MWR office rents kayaks and other equipment and has a coffee shop if you want hot breakfast
LegendI would agree with the previous two reviews, this campground is a little rough around the edges. If given a choice, I would choose nearby Fort Story for several reasons: beach access here is further away, base access is difficult and confusing as many of the gates are closed, and you are further from offbase amenities if you need them. However, there are two advantages of this campground: the MWR recreational equipment rental building is new with a variety of options, there are some on base amenities such as fast food and convenience store nearby, and there is a recreational marina where visitors and campers can fish or even moor their seaworthy boats
LegendThis campground is a recreational opportunity for active and retired military snd their families. This campground is located at the Fort Story Navy Base, set in a wooded area not far from a nice beach right at the corner of where the Chesapeake Bay meets the Atlantic. Two historic lighthouse mark the spot! The campground has both basic RV sites with hookups, and also tent sites without. The sites are fairly spacious with lots of trees. The staff at the campground office are very nice and have basic MWR info for the area. Though not right on the beach, the beach is nearby and is much quieter than the beach at the nearby and more crowded “First Landing” State Park.
ScoutWhat a nice RV park with 138 sites mostly pull thru’s with full hookups 30/50amps just minutes off the highway I-64. 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. Very well kept and very clean with grass between sites. Lots to do-pickleball, playground, volleyball mini golf, two nature trails and a nice-sized pool. Our Wi-Fi and cable were very adequate and easy to connect to the internet. Very convenient to Williamsburg, with plenty of shopping and restaurants nearby. We had site pull thru.
ScoutGreat camp ground with a lot of interesting sites to visit in the area.
TravelerNot a bad spot for camping in the whole park. Short drive to Virginia Beach areas and beach access from the park. Highly recommend visiting!
