Set out on an epic camping adventure in Williamsburg, where every journey leads to fun-filled days and starry nights in the great outdoors. From riverside retreats to forested escapes, discover the best campgrounds and RV parks in Williamsburg, and find the ideal place to reconnect with nature in Virginia’s Historic Triangle.

Jellystone Park™ Williamsburg 

Tucked away on a quiet and wooded campground, immerse yourself in peaceful surroundings with a classic cartoon twist at 🔺Jellystone Park™ Williamsburg. Choose your own lodging adventure with spacious RV sites, luxury cabins, or cozy yurts. 

Every day brings new excitement with family-friendly activities right on-site. Cool off at the splashground and the swimming pool or blow off some steam on the jumping pillows and in the gaga ball pit or even play a round of disc golf. When the weather changes, head indoors to the Recreation Center for some arts and crafts, movie nights, and games.

Themed events and activities throughout the season create moments the little ones will remember their entire lives. During character visits, snap photos of them getting high-fives from Yogi Bear™, Boo Boo™, and Cindy Bear™.

Feel at home with on-site laundry facilities and a dog park and pet wash for Fido. End each night around one of the crackling fire pits sharing your favorite experiences from the day. Beyond all the on-site fun, Jellystone Park™ is just minutes from attractions like Colonial Williamsburg, Busch Gardens® Williamsburg, and Water Country USA.

American Heritage RV Park

Stay eight miles from Colonial Williamsburg but feel worlds away in the beautiful meadows and woodlands of American Heritage RV Park. Camping feels effortless with their easy pull-throughs, full hookups, concrete pads and patios, and premium sites. 

In between exploring Williamsburg and the Historic Triangle, take care of everything from laundry at the 24-hour laundry facilities to playing fetch with the fur babies in the fenced-in areas. Relax and unwind with time at the pool or in nature on one of the nearby trails. Play a game of pickleball or volleyball, or a round of mini golf.

Anvil Campground

Make your home base Anvil Campground, an award-winning campground that proudly claims titles like the "National Small RV Park of the Year.” The campground’s history began over a hundred years ago when the owner’s family members were hired as blacksmiths to help restore Colonial Williamsburg to its 1700s appearance, hence the name Anvil. 

Each site comes with concrete pads, 50/30/20-amp service, a fire pit, and a picnic table. But you can enjoy this top-rated park without an RV—the campground rents out premium log cabins and private cottages, too.

The free game room features classics like foosball, ping pong, a pool table, and other arcade games, perfect for downtime or rainy days. Feel like a VIP and let the campground handle your trip logistics with its free on-site bus stop. Get to local attractions, restaurants, and shopping in minutes without the hassle of driving.

Thousand Trails Williamsburg 

If you’re looking to find your headquarters for family fun, the RV camping resort Thousand Trails Williamsburg is another great option. Close to nearby attractions like Jamestown Settlement and the Premium Outlets, Thousand Trails offers easy access to historic sites and shopping. For golf lovers, nearby championship golf courses make a day on the greens both convenient and memorable.

The whole family will love on-site amenities like indoor and outdoor pools, a hot tub, a game room, and outdoor games like volleyball, bocce ball, tennis, and pickleball. 

Fully equipped cottage rentals are ready to provide breaks from RV life. You can also extend your stay with monthly and annual sites.
