Best Cabin Camping near Tappahannock, VA
Cabins within Westmoreland State Park Campground and Belle Isle State Park provide rustic lodging options close to the Potomac and Rappahannock Rivers. Westmoreland's cinderblock cabins feature multiple bedrooms, screened porches, and basic furnishings including bunk beds and queen beds. "Cabin 24 is a 2BR/1BA cinderblock cabin with waterfront views and large yard space. One room has two bunk beds, dresser, shelving, a lamp, and two night stands," noted one visitor who appreciated the spacious layout. Belle Isle cabins offer electric hookups and water access with varying levels of privacy between units. Bethpage Camp-Resort and Richmond North KOA also maintain cabin rentals with modern amenities including air conditioning and television.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Anvil Campground provides premium log cabins with 50/30/20 amp electrical service, while Williamsburg Campground offers more basic KOA-style cabins suitable for families. According to one visitor, "The cabin we stayed in was very nice. It had a very large back deck with a picnic table." Most locations are pet-friendly with specific restrictions—Williamsburg KOA notably prohibits pit bulls while allowing other breeds. Reservations are essential, particularly during summer months when waterfront cabins at Point Lookout State Park and Westmoreland fill quickly.
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities vary widely—premium cabins at Bethpage and Big Timber Campground include refrigerators and microwaves, while more rustic options may only provide outdoor cooking areas with fire rings and picnic tables. On-site camp stores at Westmoreland State Park and Williamsburg Campground stock firewood, ice, and basic supplies, though prices tend to be higher than at grocery stores. A recent review noted that Rainbow Acres Campground and R&D Family Campground maintain year-round cabin availability with sufficient winter heating for cold-weather stays.
