Thousand Trails Chesapeake Bay Preserve

We have been to this campground 5 or 6 time's and we feel so at home. New campers, we are still learning. The staff is awesome, and the area is beautiful

I would give this a 0 but can't. I've been going here for over a decade and things have gone down the drain. Half of the workers abuse their power and yell and accuse you for things you haven't done. They change the rules every day it seems coming up with stupid rules, i recommend you not going here and going to another resort.

Park was fairly clean, nice camping spots and fun activities. Sadly, overwhelmingly rude staff plaguedour experience. Couldn't believe how we were treated at this campground. Good place bad people.

First, this is a membership RV park. Typically you can't stay there unless you are a member so this will be of little interest to most people.Second, most who stay there stay in their RV's, but there are cabins and we stayed in one of those. So this is a review of staying in one of their rental cabins for a week.You should expect rustic but it was in many ways a good rustic. Good bed. Clean. Adequate room. There were no screens in the windows but there was a good air conditioner. We had a nice view of a small lake with lots of turtles and some fish, which could be caught and released.You can go to their website to see what amenities they provide so I won't list them, and we didn't use a lot of them.People were friendly. There's room to hike and a river and small lakes to enjoy.We did encounter two problems. First the appliances are old and didn't work so well. But they worked. Second internet access is only in the "lodge". There's wi-fi there but it's slooow. I expect when a lot of people try to use it, it's terrible.But we had a pleasant week there; got a lot of reading done and saw some sights. We may well go back.Btw the map provided here is off just a little, but if you get the larger map the Thousand Trails Preserve is on it, close to the pin.

Here we are back again. The people are as friendly as ever and the grounds are well kept. Last year they had a Jazz festival here and this year a chili BBQ cook off. Not to many showed up for the cook off. This is really a great park and we look forward to coming back in the future.

Overrun by annuals who run the place. Management,Coreen, and the rangers,Donna and the rest, are grumpy and less than helpful. they ignore rules that are broken like dogs not on leads, refrigerators outside RV's and in storage compartments that have been rewired for smaller refrigerators, fences put up. The best sites are are taken by annuals the others are unlevel and muddy when it rains. The water and electricity do not work consistently. the amenities are overgrown with grass,dirt and in disarray. There seem to always be jelly fish in the river where folks want to swim. Noisy. Looks more like a tacky trailor park with all the shelters and stuff outside at the annual sites. Hounded by management to leave a good review on yelp so they get more money for events. There is an Rv cleaning business there that was washing the Rv across from me and that spry got on my car which was parked across the road. Potholes, lots of potholes.

Staff for the most part is rude (mainly the females in the offices and female rangers) most of the cleaning staff and the guys in maintenance are really nice and will go out of the way for the people ...always takes forever to get anything fixed...like 2 years on the dock, 2 years on and off with the hot tub, been forever issues with the power, mold in the buildings and even the bath houses took forever to do any upgrades and now they are saying that the game room is going to be removed all together. They are trying to say they are now a family friendly resort but ask the people and they will tell you they don't want anyone having any fun. TTCB is all about the money they can get and that is all they care about. Even the staff there talks bad about the campground and the ones in charge. Williamsburg is much more friendly without all the drama from the staff like TTCB and they actually show how much they care about their guest everyday, just go check them out and see the difference for yourself or ask anyone who has been there. As for TTCB, we have camped there over 25 years and it has done nothing but rise in price and drop in quality over the years and the people that have been pushed away and treated like crap is just degusting. Not to mention all the water and corner lots that used to be for the ones traveling and off limits to annuals are all now lease out to annuals at top dollar. There again, all about that money! ! !

We liked this place first time camping by the waterWe liked the hot tub although the second time when we visited it was under repair it should be fixed with so many people there. The hand dipped ice cream is large and delicious we enjoyed the dick where we fishedIt was a nice location and we visited quite often

This park needs major repairs. First. The sites need grading and possibly some gravel. Even with jacks we were unable to level the RV.Second. The park was very obviously designed before large units became the norm. Getting around was awful and it took 3 tries to get into a PULL THROUGH site. When I pay for pull through, that's what I expect to get.Third. They request that the sewer hookup on site only be actually used when you're about to pull out. Considering that raw sewage leaked out of the concrete pad surrounding the sewer hookup I can see why. If that's not fixed soon the state health department will shut them down.Fourth. Even McDonald's gives free WiFi. Having to pay extra for both cable and WiFi is just obscene. On the good side the pool and other amenities were really great and it's pretty close to Colonial Williamsburg, Busch Gardens and Water Country.

We have camped here for going on 2 years. It is the camp ground that we compare every other place to. We love it here, huge sites, friendly staff, and we had our wedding reception weekend here. The front office staff was not very reliable with helping us with our plans. Sandi is the Activities Director, she is amazing, she took over and ran everything for us. With all the wedding craziness she was friendly, helpful and made us feel like part of her family. The food she and her staff made was amazing. She did lots of extra little thing that made our wedding weekend more amazing then we thought. All in all a great place with great people. I highly recommend this camp ground.P.S.Sandi, thanks again for everything.
