Chesapeake Campground

I have been at this campground since December 2022 (Lot 60). First and foremost the staff is wonderful! Leza, Pat, and Lance run a tight ship and don’t allow for any nonsense from campers. They treat everyone equally and expect that everyone follows the campground rules. Chris and Mike are fantastic and will bend over backwards to help you with any issues that need to be addressed. My granddaughters loved the horses and pool and the security that you could walk around without fear of being harassed or taken. The security team and staff rove around the campground often and ensure that people are conducting themselves properly according to the set rules. There is ample room for your pets to get plenty of daily exercise as the campground is surrounded by the Dismal Swamp Canal and hundreds of acres of farmland. It is close to the city so you can get things you need quickly. The neighborly atmosphere is wonderful and everyone is always willing to help out when needed even though you have never met. I had heard the horror stories about camping at campgrounds but this place was nothing like the those stories I heard. My stay here has been nothing short of excellent; whatever bad could be said is easily dismissed by the caring staff, friendly people, and the security you feel while staying here. Thank you for a wonderful experience, kindness, and friendship over the past two years Chesapeake Campground Staff. Wish you the best! Gene and Wanda

Loved my 12 night stay here! Country setting with horses, pond, driving range, kayak rentals. Nice showers And super quiet. Did not use pool as it was off season. I would definitely stay again!

Just recently stayed here and more than likely won’t go back unless things change. I will share the 3 good things first. 1)The location of the campground is great if you want to be in the country but close to the city. 2) Driving in and seeing the horses and being able to pet them is a nice feature. 3) Having access to Kayak across the street is great. On to the bad… 1) Looks like this place could be a trailer park in some areas. They mention your site can’t be messy, or look like you live there when checking in, but they obviously aren’t holding people accountable. It’s abundantly clear people live here, as sites look like trash, specifically sites MM, Z, and 24. Has more of a junkyard feel. 2)This place is also an RV storage facility as well and driving past it isn’t a pretty sight as many of them are all moldy, broken down, and look like they have just been abandoned. They really need to hold people accountable for how bad their campers/boats looks. 3) Their “church” looks like it will fall on top of you if you try to go in. 4) They advertise they have an exercise room but in reality there is nothing in there and looks like it’s been trying to be renovated for years. At least mention on the website that it’s temporarily not available. 5) The condition of the roads and some of the site driveways are horrible. There are large bumps in the pavement where tree roots seem to be coming through. Hard to get a level spot. 5) The condition of the laundry room looked dirty and the washers and dryers look like they are on their last leg. I chose to do laundry elsewhere. This place has potential to be a good place if they put beautification efforts in other places instead of just their grass.

It was quiet for the most part. The cabin was small but clean. The bathrooms were dirty alot. Mold on all the shower curtains. I found it highly inappropriate and, quite frankly, unsafe that teen boys were in the women's bathroom and twice as i was existing the shower. If a teen boy that is at least 13 or 14 is allowed, then what happens if a full-grown man does.

Very kind and laid back staff. The place is quaint and the activities are affordable. We love the short hiking trails.

Here for the 3rd time, rented a cabin this time everything is fantastic. The kids love this place very family friendly. This is definitely one of our favorite campgrounds by far. Pony rides were awesome.

Huge campground, 2 pools , laundry rooms, very quiet and safe, canoe rentals, pony rides, and chickens. Can't wait to go back.

People here are very rude nose up in the air. We spend bareilly anytime on the ground themselves but when we were there they turned their noses up at our WORK TRAILER. If you want any kind of personality at your campsite don't go here. Smh

Clean, well kept park. Kind and helpful staff. Quiet area with close access to all things Chesapeake.
