The wifi and cable didn't work the whole time we were there (4 days). The spots are pretty close together which was expected. Park is fairly quiet besides the trains running through multiple times during the night. Park was run down. Pool was green, none of the games in the game room worked, and the minigolf looked rough to say the least. Not a fan of basketball but to those that are , the court was unusable due to it having "junk" (golf carts with flat tires, propane tanks, etc) all over the court.... Read More

Not a fan of basketball but to those that are , the court was unusable due to it having "junk" (golf carts with flat tires, propane tanks, etc) all over the court. Was a pull-through spot but wasn't very easy to pull-through (we do have a bigger camper so would be easy for smaller campers). Dog poop was everywhere due to people not picking it up. Not allowed to have more than one vehicle at camp spot but multiple campers had more than one vehicle which made driving around the camp ground a headache. Camp ground is in the middle of a neighborhood area, and is a rough turn to make to get in the park with a camper. Don't know that I would stay here again , I could have got the same amenities (or better for that matter), at a state park for cheaper. I don't understand all these high reviews because this place was not nice by any means.

The trains may bother you depending on where they park the diesel. Our first night I could feel the rumblings of the park train, but we only heard it other nights. The park overall was very quiet, and nice. I would not get the premium site again, but everything was in great shape. The restrooms were great and well maintained. Some of the pads were in need of some maintenance, but ours was nice. The staff was great, and always very responsive to any issues. The entrance road is a little small... Read More

The entrance road is a little small so be prepared and the sign is a little hidden, once you see the no u-turn/dead end signs make sure to stop as its that road before. Has great access to many of the local attractions.

Well maintained campground. Restrooms and bathhouse were very clean. Laundry facility also very clean. Very quiet and relaxing. There are trains that can be heard in the distance but not loud enough to be bothersome for us. Was not crowded since early in the season. Would stay here again if back this way.
We spent a very enjoyable week here while visiting the sites around The Historic Triangle. The campground staff were very friendly. The camping sites are well spaced apart, hook ups easy to access. The concrete pads were level and the grounds meticulously maintained. The laundry room was spacious and clean but no bathroom. If disabled it could be a bit difficult to enter as there is a slight edge to the doorway you have to be able to get over. This was the first time we have encountered washers... Read More

If disabled it could be a bit difficult to enter as there is a slight edge to the doorway you have to be able to get over. This was the first time we have encountered washers were the price was dependent on what temperature.and load settings you chose. They have wi-fi but we found it to be very slow. The campground is within a half hours drive of the major attractions. A note of caution, the entrance to the park is a little tricky to find. It is lined on both sides by tall bushy trees which obscure the park sign until you are on top of it. This is a problem as the campground is on a narrow dead end street. If you miss it, there is no where to turn around..

American Heritage RV Park is a wonderful RV Park. We spent 7 days there and loved every minute of it! We had a family reunion in Williamsburg. All of the guests stayed at the campground as well. We had 3 cabins and 1 campsite. We chose to do the Deluxe site because it had a patio fully furnished, fire pit and large grassy area around it, enough room for the family to gather at to eat and socialize. The campsite was all level concrete with great hookups and location. They offer free cable which... Read More

We spent 7 days there and loved every minute of it! We had a family reunion in Williamsburg. All of the guests stayed at the campground as well. We had 3 cabins and 1 campsite. We chose to do the Deluxe site because it had a patio fully furnished, fire pit and large grassy area around it, enough room for the family to gather at to eat and socialize.
The campsite was all level concrete with great hookups and location. They offer free cable which worked well the entire vacation. Great water pressure throughout with exception of one afternoon when another camper ran over the hookups while parking his rig and broke the hydrant.
We travel with our dogs and they had a great time at the facility. We walked the park multiple times a day and never had an issue with any fellow campers and their dogs. There is a very nice nature trail that surrounds the park and gets you back into nature.
All 3 cabins were in great shape, Relatively new and clean. All the guests were comfortable staying in the cabins, some were very hesitant at first while planning the vacation. They never have camped before and thought that they would not enjoy it. To their surprise, they enjoyed it. We had 3 children in the group, and all were extremely comfortable and had a great time at the park.
The pool and playground were nice and clean.
It is in a perfect location to visit Busch Gardens, Water Country USA, Colonial Williamsburg, Wineries... It is one of the reasons we chose American Heritage.
All of the staff were excellent and friendly!!!! We would stay here again if in the area!

It looked like an Airstream club was meeting the weekend my family stayed here and as such a great number of the sites were occupied. Even with the volume of sites taken, the camp ground never felt crowded. The sites are easy to get in and out of. The bath house was very clean. The proximity to Busch Gardens is great! We look forward to returning soon!
Great location for exploring Jamestown, Williamsburg and other historical places. 8 minute drive to Water Country USA water park (worth it!) and 30 minute drive to Newport News. We felt it was a bit pricey, but realize we were paying for the location. The inflatable waterslide cost extra to use ($12.00 for 3-4 hours per ticket). The dog run is located way away from the campers, across some sort of grassy parking area -was not a fan. The game room is a bit small and our 8 and 11 year olds were... Read More

This is an older park and some of the facilities are showing their age. The site was very level and did accommodate both our 40 ft MH and our tow vehicle. Concrete patio has a large by very dilapidated wooden picnic table. Grass area around site is pretty sparse. Streets are narrow, so if you have a bigger rig, make sure you turn wide when turning into your row. Park was quiet except for trains at night. Some sites face an accumulation of construction equipment, so would ask about that when... Read More

The first thing I want to say about this park relates to its location. It is off exit 231 on Interstate 64 and it is well off the beaten path. You can translate for me when you go into the campground be careful because the big sign you will miss as I found out the hard way and the little sign is a little tough to read. Do not listen to the GPS it will guide you wrong. The campground has most amenities you could ever need while camping. If you're looking for a five star hotel experience this is... Read More

You can translate for me when you go into the campground be careful because the big sign you will miss as I found out the hard way and the little sign is a little tough to read. Do not listen to the GPS it will guide you wrong.
The campground has most amenities you could ever need while camping. If you're looking for a five star hotel experience this is not the place that's what they have hotels for.
Most of the sites that I saw were level period I did not see any weird contractions to level the coaches or the trailers here period I have not looked at the bath houses because we have facilities in our coach however they appear to be very clean and well placed throughout the Park.
If I could change anything it would be the size of the sign when you come in because it's a little bit off the road and the fire pits are barrels that are portable which can kind of sort of be a hazard if you have to move the wood in them. They work fine but I would like to see permanent fire pits on the sites.
Side Note: I've heard some people complain about the train but if you are in Williamsburg trains go through and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it no matter where you are.

Sites are mostly in shade. Sites are small and not easy to get in with a 37ft trailer with slides towed with a crew cab. Sewer hookup is located at the end of the lot making it hard to reach if your outlet is located in the center of your unit. Pads are short and narrow. Picnic tables need refurbished.
Very nice campground. Close to everything, but hidden enough to feel secluded. We will be back next year.
I stayed at this park as it was the least expensive one in Williamsburg. With that being said, it was also the most expensive park I've stayed at. Facilities were limited to a pool, a "hippo slide" and small playground for children, and a laundry room with only half of the washers and dryers working. We had asked for a site near the bath house as my wife is handicapped, but we were put in a space in the new section down the hill with no shade. It is conveniently close to attractions and shopping.... Read More

Highway and train noise is noticeable, but not excessive. If you can reserve a site from 1 to about 90, you can be much more comfortable with some shade and proximity to the bath house. The staff was mostly friendly and helpful.

We stayed at the camp ground for 1 week. It was nice that we received the last day free. We found the camp ground itself to be pleasant. The camp site itself ( lot 41) was a little tight when having to park our 5th wheel (43 feet) and our truck also on it. We had a premium site because it had a brick patio with retaining wall, table with umbrella, chairs and a grill, and found it very accomadating. However, what we did not like about this lot is that it was located next to the bath house. In... Read More

We had a premium site because it had a brick patio with retaining wall, table with umbrella, chairs and a grill, and found it very accomadating. However, what we did not like about this lot is that it was located next to the bath house. In addition, there were high voltage wires that passed above our site and therefor the roof of our rv. The wire connected at the roof of the bath house and over the site to what looked like a large transformer on a post on the opposite side of the site. A large pine tree also hung over the site and the branches were on the wires. This was rather frightening considering that we had a couple of severe thunderstorms go thru the area, and this left me concerned about our safety. We are fairly new to rving so we considered asking to move, but ultimately we did not as we knew it would be a hassle, we were already settled in, and there was not another site available of that type for the weekend. So, although I would recommend the campground ,I would not recommend booking this site (#41) and I do think people should be advised of the electric/ utility lines when they book it. Also for this reason I do not think it should be a premium site.

Excellent campground. Bathrooms were top notch. WIFI had no restrictions. We could even stream Netflix!!!! Super close to historic areas. Would definitely stay here again!
Have stayed several trips to Williamsburg, friendly staff and sites are level, and most older site have good shading. Very centrally located to all historical and fun locations, Appreciate the open spaces and walking trails at this campground, perfect for younger family members and our animal family.Expansion in number of sites has been on-going, would prefer to see more trees/shade with these additions. Our go-to campground for this area.
Excellent campground! The only reason for the facility and restroom ratings are lack of handicap accessibility. The office / store is not accessible at all for those in wheelchairs or scooters. The restrooms have very tight turns trying to get in and out.
This is our preferred campground whenever we visit the Williamsburg, Va. area. It is quiet, even with children running around, convenient to Colonial Williamsburg, 8 miles west, convenient to get to from the interstate, but far enough away so the traffic noise is very low to non existent. Friendly campground personal, paved roads and concrete pads in the finished area. New area is being worked on and does have dirt roads at present.

We stayed at American Heritage in April 2015 for a week with family and Sept 2015 for the Northwood Owners East Coast rally. The park offers all pull-through sites which are well maintained and restroom/shower facilities equally well maintained. Interaction with park employees and management was cordial and pleasant, making our stays stress free. The location, in the center of so much American history is ideal for daytrips to many historic sites. This is a park we would definitely stay at again, Read More
