We are big fans of VA state parks for camping and First Landing lived up to our expectations. It is clean and well designed to give campers convenience and privacy. The park can handle tents and large RVs, so everyone has an opportunity to camp there. We were aware of the first come first pick reservations system, but camping early... More

We will be back! We loved our campsite next to the ocean and sand dunes. What an experience to camp with an ocean view,breezes, and the sounds of the ocean Also felt very private which we love. Now we camped in mid- march, during the week. I understand weekends fill up quickly even this time of year. We heard and... More

We have camped there each summer for the past few years. Most of the time it's in the summer. There are many areas that have standing water breeding Mosquitos. So be prepared with protection. There are insecticides that can be applied to these areas to prevent the breeding of Mosqitos that is only harmful to Mosquitos. The bathrooms are clean... More

We've camped here a couple of times this past year. A couple of things kept this from being an excellent review. First the good: Location! If you're lucky enough to get a campsite on the bay (or beach) side, the views are excellent. You can look out on the Chesapeake Bay and see several large freighters at anchor waiting their... More

Even though we got there early to get close to a bathroom we still ended up out of walking distance from one. They told us the site we originally picked out had been reserved so we had to move. We checked the next... More

We were beside a major four lane highway in Loop H -Site H30. The 6 person per site limit is not enforced here - leaving... More

Located bayside just west of where the Chesapeake meets the Atlantic, First Landing State Park features SPACIOUS campsites of all types - primitive, water/electric, and full hook up. In addition to being spacious, it is... More

We enjoyed primitive camping about forty-five minutes from Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown, VA. Nice beach area and super clean amenities...The park staff members were courteous and professional...Camping at its best! The park offers lots of tours and activities throughout the season...Reserve sites online.

This place is very silent and unbelievable to have inside a city. Try getting a camp site which is towards the beach side as camp sites within would seem a bit crowded. Its kind of weird that even after reservations you still have to find the empty camp site. Something the park officials should consider to add. Other wise this... More
