Kings Dominion Camp Wilderness KOA
Overview
Kings Dominion Camp Wilderness KOA offers a premium camping experience in Doswell, Virginia, designed specifically for families and theme park enthusiasts. As the official campground for the adjacent amusement park, it provides a well-maintained environment with a mix of pull-through RV sites and cozy deluxe cabins. The park balances the excitement of a major attraction with the classic comforts of a KOA Holiday, making it a reliable base camp for Virginia adventures throughout the spring, summer, and fall seasons.
Location & Surroundings
Situated just off Interstate 95, this park provides exceptional access for travelers moving along the East Coast corridor. The surrounding area of Doswell is characterized by lush Virginia woodlands, offering a natural green buffer that helps maintain a peaceful atmosphere despite the proximity to the highway. Guests enjoy the incredible convenience of being minutes away from the main gates of Kings Dominion, while the nearby Meadow Event Park adds a layer of local culture with its frequent equestrian shows and the annual State Fair of Virginia.
Amenities & Park Features
The facility is fully equipped with modern infrastructure to support even the largest big rigs, including full hookup connections and level gravel pads. One of the most valued perks is the complimentary shuttle service that runs frequently to and from the theme park, saving guests time and parking fees. On-site recreation includes a large seasonal swimming pool, a well-stocked general store for camping essentials, and multiple laundry facilities. Families often spend their evenings at the communal playground or the volleyball courts to unwind after a day of thrills.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
While the primary draw is the world-class roller coasters and Soak City water park, there is much more to explore in the surrounding region. History buffs can take a short drive to Richmond’s historic districts or visit the sprawling Civil War battlefields located near Fredericksburg. For those seeking natural beauty, the nearby North Anna River offers scenic vistas and quiet fishing spots. Additionally, the Richmond Raceway is a popular destination for motorsports fans, located just a quick trip south of the campground.
Who This Park Is Best For
This KOA is an ideal match for families with children who want to maximize their time at the theme park while having a comfortable, secure place to retreat. It also serves as an excellent high-quality stopover for long-distance RV travelers trekking through the Mid-Atlantic who appreciate consistent amenities and easy highway access. Whether you are visiting for the adrenaline of the coasters or a convenient mid-point on a road trip, this park delivers a welcoming and organized atmosphere for every type of camper.

Beautiful campground with very nice people. It has a big camp store, a large pool, playground, and dog park. I plan to stay there every year we go to the state fair or Kings Dominion which are both within minutes.

This KOA was very nice and I have no complaints, the bathrooms were not as nice as other KOAs but they were adequate. The pool was very nice and was very clean for an outdoor pool. It was very close to Yorktown and other historical sites, Busch gardens, water country USA, and especially kings dominion. The store was nice but was a tad bit overpriced. This was a nice KOA that I would go to again.

We pitched a tent, but cabins and RV spots are available. Great place to stay if you are planning on going to Kings Dominion amusement park. Also, season pass holders score a discount Great shuttle every 30 minutes or so (ours got stuck at railroad crossing and delayed), but great and friendly service
Amanda Lamb
Perfect little family campground very clean very helpful staff. I recommend bringing bikes or roller skates for the kids even scooters. The shuttle bus got us to Kings Dominion within five minutes we were dropped off at the front entrance Tim I believe was his name was our driver. He was very nice and very quick.

This was an awesome KOA! The campground itself was nice and well maintained. The bathrooms were large and clean, the pool was huge, and there were areas to play basketball, volleyball and cornhole. The laundry room was great, the store was nice and offered ice cream and snacks, and you could hang out there and play games or watch tv. (Perfect on rainy days!) The workers were all super friendly and helpful. The best part was the shuttle that ran regularly to the theme park, this was a huge perk. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed this campground!!

Awesome place, you won't be disappointed. All aspects of the park, including the employees' attitudes, shows in the care and pride they take in this place!! Nice spots to park, FREE shuttle to Kings Dominion Theme park! The laundry room is very clean and they still take quarters!! (Go USA!) Although it's a CASH FREE zone (which I think helps keep the hoodlums away?), it's certainly worthy of a stop-by.

Staff is great! They were incredibly friendly and seemed like the core staff has been there a while. We don't have a need to use the facilities, but we usually check them out "just in case," and they were super clean. Sites are, for the most part, nice. Only real downside was the electric/water pedestal on some sites is situated so as to cause your hookups to run basically through your neighbor's site. Just used that as an opportunity to talk to our neighbors, so it wasn't too bad - but I can see where some folks could be put off by that. Fellow campers could be better at policing their sites prior to departure, but I've come to realize my expectations are probably too high for the newer breed of "outdoorsy" folks.

Great location. Many spots with shade if your rig is under 35 feet. Free shuttle service to Kings Dominion. Close to Richmond Raceway, short 20 min drive. Propane refill is decently priced. If you want a Fire at night, bring your own wood, fire wood on site is $9 a bundle which is a smidge high. Overall great place to stay, and lots of activities for the kids.

Clean modern bathroom s. Nice employees. Some sites not so nice but ours was good . Stayed one night , passing through. Nice gift shop/ office / store.

Really great KOA right next to Kings Dominion. I love that there's a shuttle that takes you right to the park and felt like the tent campsites had plenty of space. The entire KOA was super clean and all the staff were incredibly friendly. Only complaints is I wish the tent sites were a little cheaper and more distanced from the main road, but I understand that this is all based on the proximity to Kings Dominion. Will definitely come back to this KOA anytime I come to Kings Dominion!
