About This Campsite

Visitors often marvel at the variety of outdoor experiences available, from well-maintained walking and horse trails to water-based activities such as kayaking and canoeing.Key Highlights
- Well-marked trails perfect for walking, hiking, and horseback riding.
- Opportunities to explore the serene lake and river through paddle boat, kayak, and canoe rentals. Please note, swimming is not permitted.
- Updated playgrounds and a frisbee golf course, with a nominal fee for users over 12 years old.

Important Considerations
If planning a stay, ensure to bring all necessary camping supplies as the onsite camp store has limited stock; essential items like small propane bottles and firewood are not available. Camping spots come with electrical hookups (30 Amp) and shared water access points, so packing a long water hose can be beneficial. Though there is no black-tank hookup available, a dump station is conveniently located on-site.
Visitor Tips
- Avoid Site 1 if you prefer a quieter atmosphere, as it is located near a busy playground.
- Engage with the friendly and helpful staff for any assistance or recommendations during your visit.

It is very rare that you find a park that has so many things to offer. You would think that this was a state park, but in fact it is a city park. From well-maintained walking and horse trails all the way to kayak, canoe, paddle boat rentals, this park is really hard to beat. I definitely will be back.

It was nice getting to see the park from the water for the first time. I grew up fishing here, but seeing it from the water was wonderful! The staff was super friendly and helpful! 10/10 would recommend!

Really enjoyed the stay. Had Spot 1. Don't take that spot unless you love hearing kids play all day (from early morning to dusk) at the playground immediately across the road. Decent bathroom and shower facilities. A bit buggy but overall clean and within an easy walk regardless of where your spot is. Electric at sites (30 Amp) but water has shared hookups so bring your longest water hoses. No black-tank hookup but a Dump Station on site on the way out (another reason not to take Site 1). ;) Reasonable rates ($30 per night). Come fully equipped because the Camp Store has none of the usual camping items such as small propane bottles, batteries, camp stove gas, charcoal, or even ice or firewood. Staff is friendly. Canoe, kayaking, and paddle boat rental available. Very nice little lake (no swimming) and a little river that is beautiful for paddling. We enjoyed our visit and will very likely be back.

Great little park to drop by and spend an afternoon. They have gravel trails and trails through the woods that are well marked. The frisbee golf course is nice but you do have to pay a few bucks if you're older than 12. They've recently updated the playgrounds and I think they have event space. Definitely a hidden gem in Southern Chesapeake.

Quiet and relaxing environment, campgrounds set off in the trees, secluded and gives privacy. Great place for a camping vacation. Bathroom and shower buildings are near sites and cleaner than other places I've been. Numerous activities available to take part in such as kayaking, equestrian riding, walking/hiking nature trails.
