Best RV Parks & Resorts near Suffolk, VA

Several RV parks operate within 30 miles of Suffolk, Virginia, providing various hookup options and site configurations. The Colonies RV and Travel Park offers 13 full hookup sites and one pull-through site with 30-50 amp electric service on concrete pads. "The site had everything you need. Bay on one side and ocean on the other," noted one camper. American Heritage RV Park in Williamsburg features 160 sites with both 30-amp and 50-amp electrical connections, sewer hookups, and water connections that accommodate big rigs year-round. Little Creek MWR RV Park in Norfolk remains open throughout the year with 50-amp service, though reviews indicate the roads have significant potholes and some sites flood during rain.

Military installations house several RV parks in the region, including Sea Mist RV Campground and Ocean Pines RV Park, both requiring proper military ID for access. Dump stations are available at most parks, though Ocean Pines RV Park lacks this amenity. Cell service varies considerably across campgrounds, with one reviewer reporting strong T-Mobile connectivity but weak AT&T signals at Little Creek. Most parks allow pets and provide picnic tables, though connection points are sometimes positioned far from pads, requiring longer hoses and cords. As one RVer noted, "We had to add a second water hose and second section of sewer hose to connect" at Little Creek. Winter camping remains available with monthly rates offered at some locations, such as The Colonies' $756 monthly winter rate from October through April.

    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.

    Fort Eustis Recreation Area

    Excellent Bargain

    Season: year round 

    Reservations: 757-878-2610 or 2565 

    Pets: Leashed 

    Sites: 9 $20.00 with w/e/s 

    Cabins: 5 $75.00 daily 

    Picnic table, grill, playground, bowling, paintball, tennis, propane, water, electric, trash, laundry, showers, fishing 

    It was as if they have two sections in the campground. One section seems to have long term and then the section where the 9 sites are is nice and open with many mature trees. There is nice separation between sites. I loved the area but I am a country girl at heart. Nice to be in the heart of the military. BTW"GREAT" Military Transportation Museum. The commissary is fantastic, didn't go to the PX.

    The Colonies RV and Travel Park

    Historic

    Sites: 22 with 1 pull thru 13 full hookups 12 Tent sites 

    Electric: 30-50 amp 

    This is a private campground and you do not have to be military to stay. It really is in a great location.

    Beach, dump, firewood, showers, fire pit, store, ice picnic table, playground, toilets, concrete pads, horseshoes, trash. A wonderful spot for a campground on the Historic Fort Monroe. There is no gate to have to pass through to reach the campground. It is located on the far end and on a beautiful flat grassy area with beautiful mature trees. Well maintained and very quiet. While there you must check out the Fort Monroe Casement Museum. You have water on two sides with excellent walking area.

    American Heritage RV Park

    Good location with lots to do within an hour's drive

    Usually when we go out with our trailer, the campground is basically the "destination." In this case, the campground was a place to park our "mobile motel room" so we could explore the area and do a day trip to the beach. 

    This was our first time staying where full hookups were standard, and we had a pull-through site on a level concrete pad. A picnic table was provided, and a metal "fire pit" will be delivered to your site if requested. 

    There was decent space between the sites, though of course not like what you find at a state park! But speaking of which, American Heritage RV Park is just 4 miles from York River State Park. After getting set up, we went there and we highly recommend it for nature lovers. 

    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. 

    The bathrooms were clean, showers had hot water, and the campground was very quiet. A train comes through the area a couple of times a day (and night), but we didn't find that to be a problem. 

    It's close to I-64 (easy on/off) and easy to find, though the actual road INTO the campground is pretty narrow. 

    We chose to stay here instead of one of the campgrounds in VA Beach just because traffic in and around VA Beach is crazy. Seriously. I felt much better about just driving there with my car instead of towing the trailer through that mess. 

    We didn't check out the pool, but it seemed nice and we saw people swimming. Some folks we met said they'd been at the campground a week. 

    Be sure to ask about AARP, Good Sam, AAA, or other memberships you have because they'll give a 10% discount when you check in. We had good cell service on AT&T and Sprint networks.

    While it was the most expensive place we've stayed so far, compared to an oceanfront motel room at VA Beach during peak season, it was a very good deal. We'll probably stay here again in the future.

    More about this trip (and all we did in 2 days!!) is on my blog:

Guide to Suffolk

RV camping options near Suffolk, Virginia range from military campgrounds requiring ID access to public resorts throughout the Tidewater region. Suffolk's location places it within 30 miles of diverse camping environments, including beachfront sites along the Chesapeake Bay and wooded settings near historic colonial attractions. Winter camping remains viable with temperatures rarely dropping below freezing, though coastal storms can impact travel conditions between November and March.

What to do

Beach access options: At Military Park Fort Story Cape Henry RV Park, campers enjoy proximity to dog-friendly beaches. "Close to beach (dog friendly beach!) and lots of sightseeing and restaurants nearby," notes one reviewer. The beach area is typically less crowded than nearby First Landing State Park.

Historic exploration: The Cheatham Annex Naval Weapons Station RV Campground provides excellent access to colonial landmarks. "This is an amazing recreational campground for military families and retirees that is located right on the York River between Williamsburg and Yorktown. It is immediately adjacent to the Colonial Parkway for easy access to historic Jamestown," writes a camper.

Outdoor recreation: Multiple rv campgrounds near Suffolk, Virginia offer recreational amenities beyond just camping. "There are more than 10 miles of hiking and biking trails, fishing on two lakes and the York River along with an 18 hole golf course," reports a visitor to Cheatham Annex. Military campgrounds frequently include equipment rentals for fishing and water activities.

What campers like

Private beach access: The Sea Mist RV Campground offers direct ocean access for military ID holders. "Both loops have direct access to an incredible extensive strand of premier beach right on the ocean, with the protection of a natural sand dune barrier," explains one camper, highlighting the unique beach camping opportunity unavailable at many Virginia rv parks.

Peninsula water views: At The Colonies RV and Travel Park, campers appreciate the waterfront location. "It's located on a peninsula with beautiful bay and creek views. You can enjoy both the sunrise and sunset. There is a little beach down from our site and our dogs enjoyed their first dip in the bay," writes one reviewer.

Pool facilities: When beach access isn't available, campgrounds offer alternatives. "Many activities scheduled on the weekends. Lots of families camping. Indoor and outdoor pools. Decent spacing between sites," notes a camper at Thousand Trails Williamsburg, reflecting the organized recreational options at larger rv campgrounds in Suffolk area.

What you should know

Military ID requirements: Several campgrounds near Suffolk restrict access to military personnel. "This campground is a recreational opportunity for active and retired military and their families. This campground is located at the Fort Story Navy Base," explains a visitor to Cape Henry RV Park. Always verify eligibility requirements before booking.

Site conditions: Reviews frequently mention uneven sites and connection challenges at Suffolk area campgrounds. At Little Creek MWR RV Park, one camper noted: "Roads are decrepit with major potholes and need of repair. The roads and some sites flood when raining." Similar conditions exist at other facilities.

Seasonal considerations: Winter options exist but with limitations. "They have a monthly winter rate $756 (not proratable) from October 1 thru April 30," notes a reviewer at The Colonies RV Park. Off-season camping means fewer crowds but potentially reduced amenities.

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly amenities: When traveling with children to rv parks near Suffolk, prioritize campgrounds with dedicated activities. "Extenuating circumstances but the next day they came over and found it for us and leveled out some gravel piles that had been dumped on the site. The site was level and gravel. A picnic table and fire ring was available," notes a visitor at Thousand Trails Williamsburg.

Beach camping logistics: For families wanting beach access, timing matters. "The south loop is older with many trees and shade and more space between sites, the northern loop is new and treeless and open with sites close together," explains a Sea Mist RV Campground visitor, highlighting the trade-off between shade and beach proximity.

Site selection for privacy: Some campgrounds offer more secluded options for families. "For more privacy (tent campers) ask for site 6 or 7," suggests a visitor to The Colonies. Request specific site numbers when making reservations based on your family's privacy needs.

Tips from RVers

Hookup considerations: Many Suffolk area rv campgrounds have connection placement issues. At Little Creek MWR RV Park, "the connection boxes are set back pretty far on the sites, so you need longer hoses/cords. We had a long electric cord that reached and had to add a second water hose and second section of sewer hose to connect."

Connectivity options: Cell service varies significantly at rv campgrounds near Suffolk. "Free wifi if you sign up for MWR's, but we used our T-Mobile home internet with good connection (4 bars). AT&T on our phones was 1 bar at best," reports a Little Creek visitor. Consider bringing mobile hotspots or signal boosters.

Overnight convenience: When using Suffolk as a transit point, consider accessibility. At South Forty RV Resort, one camper noted, "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."
