Best Campgrounds near Norge, VA

540 Reviews

Norge, Virginia and surrounding areas feature several established campgrounds with various accommodation options, including cabins. Most campgrounds in the region are full-service facilities with amenities like electricity, water hookups, and sewer connections. Williamsburg KOA, American Heritage RV Park, and Thousand Trails Williamsburg provide cabin camping within 5-10 miles of Norge. Chickahominy Riverfront Park and Chippokes State Park Campground also offer cabin options slightly further away, with the latter providing a more natural setting along the James River.

Campgrounds in the area typically operate seasonally, with most open from March through December, though several remain open year-round. "We stayed a weekend in early spring on a premium site. The site was perfectly level, clean and well maintained," noted one visitor to American Heritage RV Park. Weather considerations are important when planning a cabin stay, as reviews indicate occasional flooding issues during heavy rain periods. Most cabins require advance reservations, particularly during peak summer months and holiday weekends. Cellular coverage is generally good throughout the region, making it convenient for those needing to stay connected.

Cabin accommodations range from rustic to well-appointed options with varying amenities. Campers consistently highlight the convenience of using these campgrounds as a base for exploring nearby attractions including Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown. A visitor remarked, "This park was very convenient to Williamsburg, Richmond, and Virginia Beach. The staff was exceptionally friendly and accommodating." Family-friendly amenities are prevalent at most campgrounds, with swimming pools, playgrounds, and scheduled activities available during peak season. While sites can be relatively close together at some parks, most provide adequate privacy and shade from mature trees. The proximity to historical attractions makes these cabin camping options particularly popular with families looking for educational vacation opportunities.

    American Heritage RV Park

    Cannot Recommend for Big Rigs or Groups

    We recently brought a group of ten campers to American Heritage RV Park because several of us had stayed there before and remembered it as a clean, well-kept park. Based on those positive experiences, we recommended it to our group and looked forward to sharing the campground with them. Unfortunately, this stay did not meet our expectations. Because sites are not assigned in advance, we could not choose sites that worked well for our group. 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. This left us very close to the road, with no way to park in front and no room to park alongside without blocking our steps. We first parked across the road in a grassy area but were told to move. When we parked in another group member’s pull-through site, we received a call saying two vehicles were not allowed— even though we observed several sites with two vehicles. The office directed us to the overflow lot near the front of the park, the farthest point from our site on the back row. When we asked to speak to the manager, we were told she works off-site. I emailed her asking her to visit our site, but she never responded. We were also told we could not put up a dog fence that extended onto the grass, though this rule was not posted anywhere. When booking months in advance, we requested that our sites be grouped near a cabin for one of our members— an 86-year-old woman in a wheelchair who requires oxygen. She was placed first in Cabin 5, then moved to Cabin 8 after a request for a larger and closer cabin. The second cabin was still far from our sites, down a hill and facing the woods in an unlit area, making it hazardous to reach at night, expecially for her. We also saw another camper with a rig identical to ours struggle to get into a back-in site, ultimately hitting a water faucet across the road, leaving the park without water for over two hours. These sites are simply not suitable for big rigs. While the park is clean, our overall experience was frustrating. Guests who book early, provide rig sizes, and pay for extended stays should reasonably expect sites that accommodate their camper and tow vehicle, and that group requests would be honored when possible. Large rigs should be cautious— the back-in sites are tight and maneuvering is difficult. Unfortunately, based on this visit, I cannot recommend American Heritage RV Park.

    Cape Charles / Chesapeake Bay KOA

    Great Waterfront Campground with Sunset Views

    We wanted to visit Cape Charles and chose the KOA as our base.  Arrived on a Sunday (went to dinner at the onsite restaurant on the bay).  Because it was after school started and the start of the week, the campground was not crowded at all.   Pool was nice.  Beach is small due to being penned in by the National Wildlife on both sides.  Close to bike trails for some great rides.  Great sunset views.

    Kiptopeke State Park Campground

    A great place!

    This is a great campground. Well maintained, nice and quiet. C loop has full hookup where A and B do not. Plenty to do, hiking, fishing, birding. Camp store is nice, the staff for the park are great. The bathhouses are a little dirty, but not terrible. One of our favorite places to camp for sure! Try and get C loop spots 15 - 21. They’re shaded and at the back of the loop.

    South Forty RV Resort & Campground

    Great overnight spot

    Perfect location right off of I-95. Spot we had was spacious and easy to get in and out of. I arrived after hours, but had my reservation hanging on the wall for me. Ground was pretty level and hookup was easy. We only stayed overnight, as we continued farther south. The bathrooms were clean and there was a friendly maintenance guy who offered to take our garbage to the dumpster for us. It was “part of the treatment” he said. Gotta love that Southern Hospitality. Will definitely stop here again as I make this trip quite often.

    Grey's Point Camp

    Good park with alot of area!

    Went for a long weekend. Everyone was friendly from entry of the gate, to the store to the grounds guys! Quite a bit to do here. Wish the playgrounds had a bit more for the younger children but it kept them occupied! Fishing didn’t get us much but not the campgrounds fault! Higher Water temps and jellyfish when we were there most likely kept them away. Would return again!

    Isle of Wight Family Campground

    Fine for rv’s but not for tents

    If you love trash along the "lake" you would love the rustic spots! The “lake” more like a stagnate pod that smells like a swamp. During our familys "week visit", cut short by about 5 days because this camp is infested with bugs and wolves. Mr. Wolf came right on up to try and eat my dogs food. Really no one was out at all this camp sounded and was dead. No kids playing at the playground or riding bikes like family campground have. You rarely saw another person except for staff on gulf carts. This lake they have? Not even a lake it's a swamp. If you let go of your dogs leash by accident and they run into the forest your shoes will be gone u will have multiple cuts and will take a 30 minute shower trying to get the mud off. The water is mud brown and has trash along the edges. Not a place I will bring my family back.

    The only good thing was the pool

    Picture Lake Campground

    Wonderful place

    We absolutely loved this park. We came here to dive at Lake Phoenix (they have a no pet policy this year) and have our pup with us. The staff was so nice. We were close to the front. They have full hookups. The sewage was a little weird to hookup but we figured it out. They have a bathhouse (we didn't use) a nice pool, laundry facilities, a little store, and trash in the back. The lake is beautiful and this was close to a lot of things. The front spot is are fully paved and require minimal leveling
