  Pocahontas State Park

  Lovely campground

  Truly enjoyed this CG. Staff are very friendly and helpful CG is clean. Bathroom rooms are dated (compared to the ones at Twin Lakes State Park near Farmville, VA). The dump station is two-sided - helps on busy mornings when campers are leaving. Spent time touring the civil war sites around Petersburg. Lots of breweries in Richmond - a much needed place as a cold beer was very needed during the extreme heat occurring during my stay.

  Fredericksburg-Washington DC KOA

  Nice location

  Just a few miles off of Interstate ninety five and u s seventeen. Within thirty minutes of fredericksburg. At this k o a everything was clean and organized. Our site was a pull through. With plenty of room side to side. In fredericksburg be sure to do the trolley tour.

  Powhatan State Park

  Camping and remote work

  Like most Virginia state parks the River Bend campground is well spaced out and great for RV camping. Verizon service was stable enough to work all week with a Jetpack without the need for a directional cell booster

  Pocahontas State Park

  Huge park with plenty to do!

  Our site was nice and level. Covered by shade the majority of the day. Playground was decent and pretty centrally located on the campground. Firewood for sale by QR code was convenient. The trails were nice and it was a nice walk to the aquatic recreation park. Access to the aquatic park is free for campers. The bathrooms were clean but the one close to my site the outside was falling apart. Don’t know how the camp store is because it is only open Thursday to Sunday and has almost different hours every day. Overall great campground we will be going back

  Chippokes Plantation State Park

  Great park for cultural and natural history

  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. The land grant was huge, and as a state park now it provides a rich opportunity to learn about the James River, the natural and indigenous history of the region, the settlement history and role of this plantation in Virginia History, and more. Visiting here provides hiking opportunities to learn about fossils along the river shore, the temperate forest in the woods, and history around the old plantation. Taking the ferry across the river from Jamestown to get here was part of the adventure too. There is a nature center and visitor center that provides lots of info and programs near the river , a network of easy park roads for biking, and the plantation itself, set back further away from the river, provides a wealth of learning, including about the history of crops and trade in this area, and about the lives of the slaves who worked the plantation. The grounds right around the plantation are, in fact, a memorial to the hundreds of souls who lived and worked the land here. It was an amazing learning experience to come to the park, and the options to stay over in the park include standard campsites in a wooded campground, or cabins. The campground has all the usual state park amenities, and was very quiet when we were there in November—so late fall is a great time to come, as the fall weather was amazing

  Pocahontas State Park

  Amazing State Park close to Richmond!

  This state park is amazing, it is close to the Richmond metro but allows an easy and wonderful retreat to nature. I was there in early June, and it wasnt crowded, though I can imagine it might be later in the summer. There are numerous camping options here, ranging from tent camping to RV’s to camper cabins to yurts, to regular full service glamping cabins, all in different sections. There is also an area set aside that could be rented for a group retreat or group summer camp, with groups of cabins around meeting space and dining hall area. The full service cabins are new and very upscale; the camper cabins are older but well maintained. The yurts are lovely too. I car camped in a standard site, all the campsites are wooded, shady, fairly private and well spaced. The park is huge and has lots of recreation, from miles of hiking and riding trails, biking and more. Very family friendly, with playgrounds, an incredible waterpark and pool, and nature programs at the visitor center. There is also a summer series of concerts etc in the park. Highly recommended!

  Pickett RV Park

  Quiet Location

  I am a retired major. My wife and I bought an older motorhome, and this location was great to test it out. I come again. Bath house is a few blocks way, but for 25 dollars a night. The price was right.

  Nice Spot

  This is a great campground and very clean to boot.  It is used by seasonal campers but it would also be a great place to stay if you are traveling down I-95.

  Chickahominy Riverfront Park

  Lots to Do plus a Riverfront View!

  What could be better than camping and kayaking on a beautiful river? Maybe try fishing off the new pier or taking a bike ride on a nice long trail after visiting Jamestown or Colonial Williamsburg or Busch Gardens which are all within a very short driving distance! Or even a Ferry Ride across the river to a lovely waterside restaurant where you can experience delicious food and the most amazing sunsets! And no worries if you don’t have a tent or camper, because they have cozy yet roomy glamping tents available!We love camping at CRP! Everyone is always friendly and helpful! Facilities are always clean and well maintained. We have stayed in the spring as well as late summer without any problems. There is a camp store, two bath houses, and a convenient dump station. Playground and fenced pool. A boat ramp for motorized boats as well as a launch site for kayaks. Bring your own or rentals available. Looking forward to our next visit this Spring!

  Chickahominy Riverfront Park

  Riverfront Park, boat ramp and camping.

  Its a nice park right on the river, sites are a little close but not bad with mostly full hookups. Easy access to bike trail that runs from Richmond to williamsburg, passing many plantations and farms,forrest, etc along the way. The bike path runs seperate from the roads, but is blacktoped for easy riding. They also have canoe, kayak rentals, a nice pool in summer, beautiful views off the bluff of the river as well as a trailered boat launch.

  Rockahock Campgrounds & Resort RV Park

  Unethical Customer Service/Management

  Booked a lot on September 21, 2023 for November 1st. I received an email for the confirmation of the deposit. I called on October 25, 2023 to cancel the reservation as we were no longer going to be in the state at the time of the reservation. I spoke with the customer service lady who told me she would speak with the manager, Becky. They then called to tell me per the cancellation policy they sent me in the confirmation email that it was a forfeiture of the deposit. I had Becky send me the email as I could not find it while driving. The original email they sent versus the “refurbished” email Becky sent state two completely different things. I have called around 20 times and no one will answer. I have emailed the original email to show where the cancellation policy has been reworded. I have left voicemails and no response. I’m out of $250. Hopefully I can save other people from giving these frauds any money with this review. You have been warned.

  Chippokes Plantation State Park

  Old Ameture

  Personally, I spent my Birthday week 09-13 October there. I had a wonderful experience for my first time car camping. I would've preferred not having noisy camp neighbors but I guess it was to be expected. So happy that I invested in a tent that survived a rainy night with flying colors. It was a training run to get myself accustomed to the many insects that frayed my nerves. I would return though and the next time should be a lot easier on this old woman and her old husband. 😁

  Nice park! Will be back!

  Stayed just one night on our way to Maine. Nice, well-kept park and very friendly staff! Will definitely come back when we can stay longer. Stayed in a pull-through site with lots of space and privacy.

  Military Park Fort AP Hill Champs Camp RV Park

  The Good; the Bad; and the Ugly

  The Good: easy reservations and check in; hard surface sites; sites mostly level; showers and bathrooms are super clean; laundry facility is clean. The Bad: limited cell service (StarLink or similar is your best option) no campfires at sites; not much for kids to do (I don’t travel with them); sometimes you hear military field training going on (live ranges, helicopters, and ospreys - but I don’t mind); must have proper government ID to access post. The Ugly: hunting season can get a little crowded. Summary: I will be back.

  Picture Lake Campground

  Short Stay

  The pictures are for sure not like the campground. I only needed one night so it wasn’t a big deal but it wasn’t maintained well at all. The volleyball courts were grown over, the basketball court had no hoops (not even the poles) and the grounds themselves weren’t well maintained. It seemed as though there were a lot of people that were permanent residents there but I wouldn’t want to actually vacation there.

  Very Clean

  Spent the night here on site E4. It is a level gravel site with full hookups, including cable TV. There is a pool, playground, meeting room, bar and BBQ area, laundry facilities as well as shower rooms. Each site had plenty of room. Ours was a pull through and we didn't have to unhook to fit! The campground is very clean with beautiful landscaping.

  Williamsburg-Busch Gardens KOA

  Beautiful campground, great location

  We stayed for five nights at the end June. We were extremely happy with our site and were tempted to stay through the following weekend. We were completely canopied by trees and our site was quite level. The power was stable and the water pressure was good. The amenities were all clean and in good working order. They even have a 1 ft deep kiddie pool that was great for our toddler! The staff was wonderful and the grounds were very well maintained. The location cannot be beat. There is a Harris Teeter close by and you can be at Colonial Williamsburg within 15 minutes. We are already talking about coming back in the fall when the leaves are changing.

  Visiting relatives in the area for a 2 night stay. We arrived just as the office was closing. Well, maybe a bit after. The office manager saw us come in and met me as I was walking up to the after hours arrival board. She was very friendly and explained the direction to our site and covered park amenities and features. The sites are plenty spacious however the hookups were near the entrance so it was very near the maximum distance for making connections. Good water pressure and reasonable wifi. The roadways are pretty narrow but the sites are angled to allow easy entry and exit. I’d certainly stay here again.

  Williamsburg-Busch Gardens KOA

  Great Experience

  We stayed for 2 nights while visiting Williamsburg. The campground was very clean, the staff was nice and very professional, and the views from our location were pretty good. We felt we had plenty of room and descent privacy, as the park was not at full capacity during our stay. There were plenty of activities for all to enjoy.  As advertised this campground is very close to many amenities and attractions in the area. We will definitely stay at this location again the next time we are in the area.

  Really deserves 4.5 stars!

  Great family park

  Well kept, family and pet friendly. Nice pool and clean bathrooms. Sites are blacktop with concrete patio pads. I have stayed here two times to visit family near by whether one night or extended stay you will enjoy this place.
