We stayed over Easter break (Thu-Mon). Although it's not the resort campgrounds out there nowadays, this place is perfect for real camping... besides the glamping part. We brought our 38' travel trailer & every single spot had a nice size cement pad to park on which was mostly level. There was even enough room on there to park our 12 passenger van as well. Addtionally, we didn't even have to pull out our astro-turf to avoid mud at our trailer entrance (cuz it rained for 2 of the days). Oh & no issues with power & very strong water pressure. But very little to no internet coverage. This is a nice & quiet camground on a military installation that had a fantastic firepit at each spot w/ a grill toward the one side of it. If a bathroom was needed, it is located between the RV, cabins, & tent spots (but more closer to the latter two) in the back. Big dumpster was located close to the bathroom & two more toward the entrance/exit. They had a dumpsite at the front as well. Additionally, for "entertainment" there was some sort of blinky light game, cornhole, & a really really small playground (for probably 3 & younger). Oh yeah, there were 2 hiking trail entrances nearby & we saw a lake within walking distance the morning we left. To top it of, the Shoppette wasn't too far either. Granted it may be a little too far to walk to & it closes way earlier than we would expect, but it has most things you may need in a pinch. Only reason why we docked 1 star was because of the very limited to absolutely no internet connection, limited dog waste baskets (only 2), firepit was quite full of charred wood/charcoal (needs shoveled out), playground was too small, and grass was a bit too overgrown/unkempt even if our kiddos did wanted to play in the common area (or anywhere else). Maybe a better play area that would keep the kiddos entertained for a bit would make it an awesome family campsite (FYI: gaga pits have become very popular at many campground). Oh, and maybe a nice size open dog area (fenced in) so they can run "free" would make it perfect too. But hey, beggers can't be choosers. Even with those little nuances, this was a fantastic place for our family; especially since it was quiet and within 10-15 min from Busch Gardens & Colonial Williamsburg (why we went there in the 1st place)... And, of course being a military famcamp, the price seems to be what campgrounds should be. We'd definitely recommend this military campground to anyone who has access, & go back to if we were to visit the area again.

M family and I stayed at Kings Creek during the holidays. The spaces were sized well, we had room for our tow vehicle and the spacing between spots was generous. We didn’t use any of the facilities such as the bathrooms or laundry so I can’t really comment on those but all the hookups worked as advertised. The internet access wasn’t great but that’s not unusual for most camp grounds that we’ve used. Overall, our experience was a positive one and I would definitely return.

Great place to stay. Staff is friendly and personable. Large spots and quiet. Most sites are level and a well equipped bathhouse. Plenty to do close. Bush Gardens is right down the street.

Nice quiet campground with large level pads and full hookups. The military installation is quiet and has some simple services available. Phone signal is week, but Verizon has two to three bars.

Super nice place, well taken care of...hard to find the host at first, but overall is 👍 great.

The park itself is nice and quiet. The MWR office is another story. Staff are not on the same page. You will get different answers from different employees you talk to. They contradict what dod lodging policy states. The latest debacle involved me going to the office to pay my bill, got there at 545. Employee was on the phone taking a reservation so I waited. 5 minutes to 6 he got off asked how he could help and I said I was there to pay bill. He told me he just closed out his banking system and I would have to come back tomorrow to pay my bill. Wifi is nonexistent unless you get a spot either at the bathhouse or next to the camp host. Cell service isn't much better for both verizon and tmobile. Bathhouse and grounds are pretty maintained. The biggest headache is just the office.

Really nice small RV campground. MWR managed and well cared for. Very few empty spaces but it was quiet, calm and relaxing. Would definitely return here. Hook-ups we're in good condition and fully functional. Nice concrete pads for easy leveling and picnic table was clean and serviceable.

It is a nice, tidy, campground. The laundry facilities were clean. Our only complaint is we didn't have good Internet service, and we had three different mobile carriers. There was lots of wildlife to photograph which made our camping trip!!

Cheatham Annex is one of our favorite places to go with our RV. This base is such a beautiful property, I always imagine Real Estate developers seeing it and literally salivating! Lakes, rivers, creeks, trails, wonderful fishing, all manner of wildlife everywhere! The RV park itself is very unassuming, pretty basic, but with everything you need to be comfortable during your stay. We love going and will definitely go back, often!

Nice, clean, and quiet campground. The concrete pads are a nice feature and they have good clear cable too if you are one of those that can't go without their TV.
