We did another overnight stay in the 500s sites. Large pull through, plenty of room for 45' + toad. Check in quick and efficient, staff is 5 stars. Only wish that the Wifi worked.

This campground is in the middle of absolutely nowhere. Narrow roads to get there. Once there, it has a small beach and a nice pool, but you can’t be outside AT ALL if mosquitos like you. They swarm all over, invade the camper and generally make your stay miserable. Also, they are the size of pterodactyls. We ended up staying inside the entire stay. We will not go back.

Sunset was amazing, right next to Chincoteague, and overall best campground we’ve been to. We were nervous based on previous reviews, but the bugs and WIFI were not an issue. Golf cart was a bonus. Splash pad and pool were amazing. Staff was very helpful. Amazing KOA!

We had terrible weather during our stay, with rain and a hurricane, but on the one sunny day of the week our kids loved the splash pad, pool and bouncy pillow. Due to the rain the staff accommodated us in moving from a tent site into a safari tent for one night and the safari tent was very comfortable. Facilities were very clean, though we came mid week and the camp was pretty empty, so not sure what it's like on a busy weekend. Store closes pretty early compared to other KOAs we have been to and the snack bar was closed during the days we were staying. My main complaints would be that the wood sold was super damp, the outdoor sink was clogged and the shower heads in the main bathhouse should be replaced. We would love to come back when the weather is better to enjoy the beach and the pools

We stayed in a collage with views of the bay. Great pools, splash zone, well maintained campgrounds, small beach, 2 docks, hammocks, and even a boat launch! My family and dogs enjoyed it. Not too far from other areas of interest. Just bring bug spray but that’s the case anytime you have a water source, woods, or wetlands/marshlands. Also there is no cell signal at least for Verizon, maybe enough to make a call. There is WiFi but it’s not great. Overall 5/5!
