Cherrystone Campground

Cherrystone in Cape Charles, Va.

They had a booth at a Raleigh RV show many years ago. We liked what we saw but we never made it. Then a few years ago, their reviews were looking pretty rough.

Now the reviews seem to be getting better. We just want to try something new. Thinking about a trip in May. Can't decide on Cherrystone or Carowinds again.

We don't mind some "hecticness". Our 15 year old son will be with us. But will we be bored? Is there enough to do there while the water is too cold to go swimming? We'd rather find someplace with fun things to do versus chilling out reading a book or something. We can do that here at the state parks.
  • We hated it...way too hectic for us. Crowded, tight, noisy, lots of parents running around trying to find their 15 year old sons and daughters who were trying to ditch their parents.

    Well, you get the picture...but since basically that's what you are looking for, I highly recommend it.

    Seriously, have a good trip. It just wasn't our style, but lots of folks seemed to be having lots of fun. Kind of reminded us of camping at a Chucky Cheese.
