“Excellent customer service, clean, fun, but trains are a problem”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 June 2013

I really liked this campground, its staff and the amenities. I am putting this review out there to help other campers be truly prepared. First, the good. The staff is super friendly and helpful, the grounds are beautifully maintained and very clean, the campsites are nice, with power, water, tables, fire rings, and even fences between each to preserve your...

“Good experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 June 2013

Chris, our experience at Anvil was positive. The trains did not bother us, however, we were in a class A motorhome and had the air conditioners on since it was quite warm during our stay. Perhaps tent and pop up campers may have a problem with the trains. Ray and Debra were most friendly and helpful. We would stay with... More

My wife and I have stayed twice and will do so again. Very friendly, knowledgeable about the area, they have a shuttle that will take you to bush gardens,and all of the historical places, and shopping. There is a train track close by but my wife and I have fun with it. I put coins on the track and have... More

“Clean, friendly,peaceful campground!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013

Anvil is a great place to stay while visiting Williamsburg. We love the location and how it's close to everything! A huge perk to the campground is how it sets off the main road so you get that off the beaten path feel, but are super close to anything you could need! The staff there is amazing. Everyone is super... More

“Disappointed”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013

The trains were really loud. Woke up everybody every 3 hours in the middle of the night. I was hoping the campground was closer to Busch Gardens. It's good that the grounds are close to restaurants. The comfort rooms were clean.

“This is a great family owned campground.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2013

We really enjoyed our stay hear. Great location to local attractions. Yes it is near the train tracks. If a little train noise bothers you then maybe you can overlook it and focus more on the cleanliness, friendly atmosphere, and well maintained surroundings.

“Anvil Campground”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 May 2013

Extremely disappointed...railroad tracks 30 feet from campsite with at least a dozen trains passing throughout the day. Adjacent sites are so close you can hear what others are saying inside their camper. Our site was littered with paper and ashes as the fire ring had been moved so a seasonal resident could park his truck in front of our area.... More

This kind of incident is very isolated, as we have had no such reported issues in my memory. We were notified of this issue and the guest was removed immediately. Anvil Campground does not tolerate any such behavior. We have a zero tolerance policy. We are not a party campground; we are a safe campground that caters to seniors and... More

“LOVED STAYING AT ANVIL CAMPGROUND”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 April 2013

We traveled to Williamsburg in a large motorhome from California. We found the park to be very clean and orderly. The park is centrally located making it very easy to visit all the nearby attractions and is also close to shopping and many restaurants. There is a train that runs adjacent to the park but my husband and I did... More
