We had a good weekend. Cabin 3 worked for us. Says it sleeps 4 but that would be tight unless the other 2 are fairly little. Good view and good neighbors. Yea a little partying on our left but all good. You don't have a lot of space, so make sure you're up for that. We liked the location... midway between the Colonial Triangle and Providence Forge and right on the river. The owners are very nice, boat rental was very reasonable and easy.

Me and my girlfriend stayed here for a few days in one of the cabins, we loved it. The cabins are nice and staff are so sweet and helpful, the pamphlet they give you has local restaurants they recommend and we tried a few and all were great. The view of the lake when you wake up is amazing and also it has plenty of fish to catch from the bank, dock, or using the boat the ramp to go out on the water. I would recommend this site to anyone looking for a nice getaway with great people, especially if you love fishing.

WE LOVE THEM! Big shout out to the good people at Riverside! Chickahominy river has always been so special to us. Riverside Camp and Marina is our go-to for cottage and boat rental. We especially enjoy renting a pontoon from them,and they have superb customer service. They are down to earth, friendly, and make every trip wonderful for us.

We loved our stay at this campground. There are only a few RV spaces, and on the water. It is well kept and clean. They offer full hook ups, and are very convenient. They have a cool little store with a variety of food, snacks, ice cream, fishing equipment and bait, campground swag, and anything you left behind. The owners couldn't have been nicer. They are fairly new owners, and really care about the campground and guests. They even hand delivered my Amazon package with a laptop charger I forgot. 💌 There are many full-timers and permanent sites here, like their own community. They are in the process of changing out the picnic tables, which really, besides super Internet, is my only recommendation. Comes with a fire pit, picnic table, level spaces, and offer wood for sale (which you get quite a bit for the $), and delivered to your site. They also have cute cabins in which you can rent. They are also a marina, and was a little worried about traffic and noise (especially since there was a fishing tournament our Saturday). It is still very quiet!!! We both loved it, and plan to come back with family.

This is place is amazing! I've been here countless times, and everytime I come here I feel at peace. The owners are very homely, caring. They make sure everyone is good and taken care of. The environment is peaceful, the cabins and the boats are very well maintained. This place is to get away from the hustle and bustle. This isn't a 5⭐️ hotel. But it definitely is a 5 🌟 place to go to when you want peace and fun. They have many things in the store, and fun people around you. No animosity. Try this place.

Good Afternoon,My husband called once to ask about monthly rates for RV spots and we were directed to your website. I told him to call again to see if it was possible to be put on a wait list, as this stay would be for work purposes and not leisure, and the second person who answered was not pleasant. The gentleman was very short and off putting, since they must have recognized the number, and answered immediately with no monthly spots are available without even saying hello. I can understand this is peak season, but that doesn't justify being curt and short with your cliental.Update: The gentleman who spoke to my husband the second time called personally to apologize for what transpired and that it wasn't his intention to come off in that manner. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to rectify the issue, it is greatly appreciated and doesn't go unnoticed. Have a wonderful day.

I want to start by saying the new owners of this campground are some of the nicest people we have met on our travels. That said I have to give an honest review. There are some low trees on the road to the campground we are 13ft 6in and made minor contact with some branches. The campground is beautiful and well kept. We had an issue with the 50amp site, my surge protector showed bad wiring. The owners said they would fix it. We used the 30 amp which checked out ok. The water has a sulfur smell. The owner said it comes and goes. The price was below average for the area at about $43 dollars a nite full hookups. There is a boat ramp and fishing. I hope the owners can get a filtration system to correct the water problem. If so we would definitely stay again. We decided to move to a different campground and they were very professional, apologetic and refunded our money.

Owners were so friendly and helpful! We rented a boat from them and fished all day. It was raining the whole day, but we had a LOT of fun! The boat was perfect because it had a cover which helped :) They made me feel at ease. We didn't stay overnight so I can't speak to the cabins, however the people that were camping were very friendly as well. Thank you for a good time!

My husband and I stayed here! I loved it! Stayed in a basic cabin and it was just enough. Beautiful area with shade and when we weren't fishing aitting out on the porch of the cabin was wonderful enjoying just being away. The owner I think her name waa Jennifer 😌 was on it all the time and very helpful! Family owned camp ground, kid able to run around and play, had a few issues but it was handled immediately; which happens! I you want fancy this is not your place but if you want to enjoy nature, fishing and life this is the most fun I've had!!! We will be going back!!❤❤

My husband and I rented a boat today. We are very familiar with the chickahominy River, we had a wonderful day. The price was very very good for the boat rental. I cannot wait until we go and rent the cabin and rent a boat and just have to go back to the cabin instead of an hour drive. Thank you to the owners for such great hospitality

Wish We Had More Time Here!Small but sweet spot on the Chickahominy River. Management went out of their way to tell us about the area and sites to see. Very nice people! Little general store onsite. Water view campsite with full hookups was roomy and peaceful. Fishing off their pier was fun and the sunrise and moonrise over the water were beautiful. We wanted to go kayaking and wished we had another day to spend. Highly recommend it, at least for off-season. It looks like it may be busier in the summer with seasonal campers.

My family loved our stay at Riverside! The owner could not have been nicer or more helpful. Renting the pontoon was the highlight of our stay. We will definitely return.

My daughter wanted to go "tent camping" for the 1st time. chickahominy state park was full, so we ended up here.The location of the tent spot was amazing, that's why they got 2 stars. If you set your tent up right, you woke up to the best view.Not much customer service. You have to be a regular if you want any interaction from her.You could tell they lack on up keep. Everything was worn down and/or partly broken.We booked 3 days. On the last night it was going to storm. A tent is not the best place for lighting. Especially with a 7-year-old, she agreed. But then would not refund the 35$, because it was the same day.She glanced at the weather app, "I see only 40% chance"... Whatever attitude.We nicely left a day early before check out anyways.I wont be returning to this place.

My buddy and I just spent a week in a deluxe cabin. It was perfect for our needs. All the comforts and conveniences of home with a boat launch and the Chickahominy River right there. It made our "eat, fish, sleep" plans easy. We found the cabin furnished and clean and the owners pleasant and helpful. Certainly hope to do it again.

We loved this campground! Its right on the Chickahominy River, and all the sites and cabins have river views, and a gorgeous sunrise we loved watching over the water. The owner was super friendly and helpful, and the campsites have all the amenities you need for a great getaway!

Great family vacation spot. Upon our late arrival the owners still greeted us kindly. We originally were tent camping but then got rained out and decided to rent a cabin that was available. The owners were very friendly and willing to accommodate all of our needs. Enjoyed fishing and jetsking. Overall the campground was quiet and peaceful and kept clean and grounds maintained well.

We just camped there for father's day and it was great. Our kids had a blast swimming in the river and fishing. The weather was amazing. It was one of the best times we had so fast.

Mike and Sandy are super nice and always around if you need anything. We had the pleasure of staying in their deluxe cabin (a home away from home) for 3 full days and it was exactly what we needed. The river was right outside our door, the neighbors were nice, and we were very comfortable with air conditioning and real beds. The full kitchen and grill outside gave us the ability to have real food, three times a day instead of eating out or the traditional camping grub. The local Food Lion grocery store was about 20 mins or so away so we were able to get everything we needed to really enjoy out relaxing weekend and when I forgot sugar for the coffee the Riverside Camp convenience store had it on hand. Thank you Mike and Sandy for a great time and we look forward to coming back next year!

Great place to stay! Tent camped here and it was perfect. The owners were really nice and helpful. The price was great and we were right on the water! The bathroom was a little small but clean and just fine! Very peaceful stay, there's a train that passes through nearby but it wasnt too loud. Would recommend! Also it is pet friendly!

A lovely place on the Chickahominy river. Great views! The owners are super nice and accommodating. Amenities include full hookups, a boat ramp, beach, WiFi, laundry, bath house, and clear sky for antenna TV. Highly recommend! It’s a nice quite park close to Williamsburg and West Point. Lots of river (Rivah) activities nearby. The park is clean with lots of grassy areas. I can’t say anything bad about this place, it’s quiet quaint and beautiful!

Friendly, laid-back and helpful owners. Our full-hookup site was just steps from the river. We enjoyed sitting on the dock in the evenings. We rented a boat from them as well to explore the river, at a very reasonable rate. Highly recommend!

Called and made last minute reservations on a Friday. The owners were very nice and informative about the area. Campground is family oriented, small, and well kept! The perfect place to stay passing through.

Not a place to camp. It had a bunch of old campers with people living in them. Our "campsite" was an uncut grassy spot with mud. We stay one night because the owners told my wife they wouldn't refund our first nights deposit. We cancelled the rest of our stay and got out of that place fast. I don't know how they have such a high rating because it is a dump. Don't waste your time and money on this place.

My husband and I stayed in the deluxe cabin and it was super clean and lovely. The cabin is beautiful and the view from the front porch is fantastic. The couple that runs the camp is very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay.

Not a place to camp! It looked like I was camping in a junk yard. There were a lot of old trailers that look like they have been for years, the grass hadn't been cut, and there was no real campsite just a grassy area. The so called "campsite" had a lot of tall grass and mud that's all. Definitely not worth the money and a huge disappointment. Stay 1 night and left.Response from owner said I picked a different site but I was told from the man at the counter to pick one spot from the grassy spot. He even walked out with me and showed me the area. He never said anything about a site number. He just said park whatever. As for it being a real campsite it had a fire ring, table, and hookup. As for the gravel pad I didn't see any probably from all the overgrown grass. The site was very unkempt. I don't mean to give a bad review but don't mislead campers into expecting a campsite when you obviously don't have one. You have more of a rv trailer park. You could have explained the "camp" when we spoke on the phone especially after I told you we were coming from over 2 1/2 hours away. Just be honest with people. You said we were away from permanent live-in campers but the fifth wheel right beside us had white plumbing pipe hooked into his sewage. My pictures of the "campsite" would show it all. As for my husband reviewing it; he was a customer too so why wouldn't he review it. I'm sorry if it hurts your rating but you definitely don't deserve a 4 rating.

My wife and I have been using the facilities at Riverside Camp for over 30 years and we have NEVER had a problem of any kind. Mike and Sandy are two of the best and most friendly hosts a person could ask for. Plujs the Chicahominy River fishing is the Absolute Best in Virginia. Give it a try.
