    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.

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.

    Newport News Park

    Quiet, spacious and heavily wooded sites

    We stayed at site D100 for 10 days. The sites are quiet, very spacious, nicely spaced, some surprisingly so, but many are deceptively unlevel, particularly on the outside of the loops, and are heavily wooded. Some loops are primitive, some have only 20A service and some have 30A service and water hookup. There are no sewer hookups, but there is a dump station. There are a lot of low hanging branches on the roads through the park and it is showing some signs of age. There is some road noise from I 64, but not too bad if you stay deeper into the park and away from the lake. AT&T had 2 bars and 6 MB/s w/o a booster, 3 bars and 8 MB/s with it. There is no satellite coverage due to the heavy tree canopy. OTA TV was descent using an external omni antenna. There is no WiFi. We had the place pretty much to ourselves during the week, but the weekend did get busy. There is a very nice network of trails, most if not all were leashed dog friendly. The park is a civil war historic site and is close to a lot of other historic places.

    Holiday Trav-L-Park

    Touristy Campground with shuttle to VB oceanfront

    This is a convenient place to stay close to the oceanfront if you’re going to be spending time along the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. They have lots of amenities as well as putt-put and several pools. 

    There are various sections and some of the higher priced sites are very well kept but the newer pull through sites in the rear of the park flooded really badly when we were there and we had constant construction from backhoes and building crews, which took away front the relaxation somewhat. The tent sites are fairly nice unless it rains, which means floating on your air mattress. We had a fairly good experience with our travel trailer but it would have been miserable with a tent setup. 

    We’ve stayed a couple times prior to getting our camper and have had a good experience overall. The comfort stations are fairly clean but some are nice than others and you don’t know until after arrival if the closest ones are the better ones. There’s quite a division between the fancy side with full hookups and the sites with partial hookups.

    Virginia Beach KOA

    Great place

    Great location, very close to the beach. Staff was pleasant, and accomodations were nice. Some site are a bit close to a busy road, and you get road noise. But if you ask to be in the back of park, it is quiet. Paved roads and have premium sites that are paved, with concrete pads and beautiful furniture, along with cooking fire pit. Other pull thru sites are gravel and grass. Wifi was awesome. Best yet at campsite. Very clean. Would recommend this site

    First Landing State Park Campground

    Great access to Virginia Beach shore and city activities

    Very nice state park. Sites are not large, but well separated by dense foliage. Electric and water hookups. Free hot showers. Some road noise from Rt 60, but also the sound of waves from the ocean if you get a site on the ocean side.

    Many RV sites are listed as 20 ft max, but we fit our 24 ft trailer into one with room left to park the tow vehicle, although not enough room to use the fire pit. Check site photos.

    There is a trail center nearby in the state park with a number of trails. Many things to do in Virginia Beach and Norfolk.


Guide to Virginia Beach

RV camping near Virginia Beach offers diverse options beyond the well-known oceanfront locations. The coastal area averages 213 sunny days per year with humid summers reaching 87°F and mild winters rarely dropping below 32°F. Many campgrounds operate year-round, though seasonal considerations affect availability and pricing across this low-elevation coastal region.

What to do

Beach activities: Military Park Fort Story Cape Henry RV Park sits near the junction of the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Ocean. "This campground is located at the Fort Story Navy Base, set in a wooded area not far from a nice beach right at the corner of where the Chesapeake Bay meets the Atlantic. Two historic lighthouse mark the spot!" Notes Janet R. The beach is less crowded than at nearby First Landing State Park.

Water activities: Virginia Beach RV Resort provides access to Back Bay waters. "We picked this site for its proximity to the beach. Site #4 was level and had full hookups," writes Christopher T. The resort features two pools that are "nice and never really crowded" and allows fishing on property.

Historic exploration: Explore nearby Fort Monroe from The Colonies RV and Travel Park. "Located on historic Fort Monroe, VA the fort has a lot to offer. No reason to leave but if you do there's plenty in surrounding areas," mentions Becky W. The campground itself is "on a peninsula with beautiful bay and creek views" where you can "enjoy both the sunrise and sunset."

What campers like

Water views: Thousand Trails Virginia Landing offers scenic waterfront camping. "The sunset over the old pier is breathtaking," notes Angelica K., who adds, "My kids loved catching tiny crabs in the mud every night." The campground provides "opportunities for exploration and outdoor activities" like "clamming, kite flying" according to Jason G.

Clean facilities: Virginia Beach KOA maintains well-kept grounds and services. "The campgrounds and bathhouse are kept clean. Campsites are equipped with fire rings (of some sort) and accessible picnic tables," reports Kelly M. The T-Mobile signal is "nice and strong" for those needing to work remotely according to Leo S.

Military convenience: Little Creek MWR RV Park offers affordable options for military personnel. "Full hook up (electric/water/sewer) on sites; some have fire pits, some don't," notes Eleanor the Airstream R. The campground has "several small hiking trails nearby on base that were good for walking the dog" and "free laundry" which campers appreciate.

What you should know

Seasonal pricing: Virginia Beach campgrounds have significant cost variations. At Virginia Beach RV Resort, a camper noted, "I just called and inquired about pricing. I was told that RV spots were $130/night," contradicting lower advertised rates. Virginia Beach KOA has "prices come way down during the off season" according to Leo S.

Base access requirements: Military campgrounds require proper ID. Cape Henry RV Park is "a recreational opportunity for active and retired military and their families" located at Fort Story Navy Base according to Janet R. For civilian options, Military Park Cheatham Annex / Yorktown Naval Weapons Station RV Campground has "more than 10 miles of hiking and biking trails, fishing on two lakes and the York River along with an 18 hole golf course."

Noise considerations: Aircraft noise affects certain locations. Little Creek RV Park campers should "expect to hear aircraft all the time. You get used to it quickly, but can be loud." At Virginia Landing, it's "very isolated, make sure you have everything you need, it's a 30 minute drive to the Walmart."

Tips for camping with families

Activity options: The Colonies RV Park offers diverse recreation. "Beach access, country store, water on 2 sides," mentions Becky W. Another camper notes they have "a little beach down from our site and our dogs enjoyed their first dip in the bay."

Kid-friendly amenities: Virginia Beach KOA features extensive facilities for children. They offer "two great pools, tons of activities for the kids even during the week" according to Marc W. The "transportation via Trolly bus that comes through frequently throughout the day" helps families reach beachside activities.

Natural exploration: Virginia Landing provides open spaces for children to explore. "The park is wide-open, which provided plenty of space for kids to roam and explore," writes Jason G. Families can feel "perfectly comfortable allowing the kids to freely run around and engage in activities they don't typically."

Tips from RVers

Hookup considerations: RV sites vary in layout and connections. At Little Creek, "the connection boxes are set back pretty far on the sites, so you need longer hoses/cords." Eleanor reports needing "a long electric cord" and having "to add a second water hose and second section of sewer hose to connect."

Signal strength: Cell coverage varies by provider and location. Little Creek has good service for "T-Mobile home internet with good connection (4 bars)" while "AT&T on our phones was 1 bar at best." At Cape Henry RV Park, "Cellular signal and Starlink won't work well here and the campground WiFi isn't great."

Maneuvering space: Site accessibility differs across campgrounds. Virginia Landing offers a "spacious layout that allowed for easy RV maneuvering. Whether you're a seasoned RV enthusiast or a camper just starting out, you'll appreciate the space." The Colonies camper mentioned their site was "great if you have a number of campers, you can hangout in the middle."
