Our stay was in the BlackSmith cottage!! Very well appointed in all aspects!! Clean, smelled nice, and just the right size!! Location wise, it was near everything we needed and just far enough to feel in the woods!! For us it was a plus being right next to the railroad track!!

Now that we’ve stayed at other campgrounds we have really appreciated the cleanness of the campground and friendliness of the owners & the people who stayed there. 1. washer and dryer’s are available, have quarters or they will give change in their store/checkin place. 2. do not use pods, buy the powder in the laundry room or bring your own liquid. 3. showers and bathroom's very clean. 4. small dog play area:) they even provide clean up bags. 5. If you want a certain spot, it costs more but worth it if you want to pick a spot. Don’t throw a hissy at the owners if you don’t pick & pay for a spot when you reserve there and don’t get what you want when you get there! 6. pool is open into sometime in November small but warm and clean:) 7. Have fun & talk to some of the others around you if they want, it’s amazing what you can learn about rving!

We absolutely LOVE this campground. We had some vehicle complications and the staff worked with us and even encouraged us along the way. They were exceptional! This campground is beautiful! The train tracks are right next to it, making it feel like home. Lots of FREE things for the kids (of all ages) to do. We didn't want to leave. We felt very safe there! We will definately be back and HIGHLY RECOMMEND Anvil Campground. A++++

The Anvil Campground is one of the best we have stayed at this year. The staff is incredible. The campground is small with only 77 sites, but the attention to detail is amazing. Having the heated pool stay open until November is great. The bath house and showers are modern and extremely clean. WiFi worked great and playground is nice for the kids. While here they celebrated Halloween and kids could trick or treat. We will definitely return the next time we come to Williamsburg.

We stayed for just over three weeks in our RV while visiting friends. The staff was AMAZING! They were so helpful and accommodating for our needs. They allowed us to change our RV site THREE times before we arrived in order to provide us the most amount of room for a rig our size. If you have a rig 40+ ft, look for their front sites 72-78 I believe. They are premium sites but offer so much more room for your rig. The park was quaint but so very well kept! I saw some reviews about the train that runs close behind the camp. Oh well. A train runs. It wasn’t that bothersome throughout the night, but note that the born does blow during the day. Awesome campground that is close to everything and has the staff that makes the experience worthwhile! Will return again!
