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.

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.

Campers consistently highlight the convenience of using these campgrounds as a base for exploring nearby attractions including Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown.

Family-friendly amenities are prevalent at most campgrounds, with swimming pools, playgrounds, and scheduled activities available during peak season.

TravelerOur first time with our new camper. Everyone was very friendly. Amazing views! We had a tight spot, so our hosts helped us get in with their tractor. When we got back the next day we found a bottle of champagne to celebrate our maiden voyage. Very nice rec room, fishing pier. There is also a beach and playground, corn hole field, and an outdoor Pavillion. Lovely place !
TravelerWe booked online, everything was ready when we got here for a super easy check in process. The grounds person makes their rounds a couple times a day and keeping the grounds tidy. Very peaceful experience so far! Paid $43/night for 25 foot Motorhome. Theres a dump site and water fill station. Our site has water and electric, picnic table, fire ring, light hanging pole, and is very spacious. All the spots have a fair amount of privacy but are visible to neighbors.
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.
GuideThere are not a lot of spaces available but still a decent amount. They spread out amongst several roads leading down to the water. The trees surrounding are gorgeous. There is a shooting range nearby but we didn’t mind the sound.
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
ScoutThis campground was very enjoyable. I spent a lot of time at the fishing pier, learning to ID birds I had never identified before. Brown pelicans were everywhere near the sunken ships. I also talked to the Hawkwatch people for a bit.
My campsite was far enough from the bathroom I couldn't hear the door slam, but since I was the only one in the F loop, that wouldn't have mattered. Since the loop was so empty, it was an absolute pleasure.
Had the campground been full, I would have felt too close to the people in tents in the sites next to me.
One great thing was that there weren't tent pads so we didn't have to worry about how to fit two tents on to one tent pad.
GuideEnjoying this campground. Close to all the attractions. Incredible staff, super friendly. Pool and game room are wonderful.
ScoutPocahontas Park is for those who love the outdoors. they provide 30 and 50 amp hook up, Water hook ups very nice size campsite open and private.
