This was a very big campground and quite nice.

Quote from campground web site - "A 280-acre waterfront Thousand Trails RV campground set along the banks of beautiful Piankatank River, offering both shady and open campsites. Chesapeake Bay RV Camping has full hook-up sites plus tent sites and rental cabins. Facilities at this coastal Virginia RV campground are clean and well maintained. The friendly, welcoming staff is on call 24 hours.

Upstream from the Chesapeake Bay, Piankatank River is perfect for boating, water skiing, jet skiing, swimming, crabbing, and fishing. Both saltwater and freshwater fishing are within a quarter mile boat ride from Chesapeake Bay RV Camping.

Nearby are 3 living history towns of unparalleled historical significance. Colonial Williamsburg, Yorktown and the Jamestown Settlement make up what is known as Virginia's Historical Triangle, and the beautiful Colonial Parkway that connects them is worth the drive if you do nothing else. Three charming villages - Gloucester Courthouse, Mathews Courthouse and Urbanna - are within a half hour's drive, with unique shops, historic buildings and museums, wonderful restaurants, art studios and galleries."

Two views of the Adult only pool. The two RV Gypsies did not use it because it closed too early in the evening. For once they would have like to use the pool.

The kids and family pool was right next to the adult only pool, but separated by a fence.
