KOA Virginia Beach

Anybody have any experience with the KOA in Virginia Beach?

There is a place on Oceana Blvd ( I think that is the street's name) where people park and watch the jets take off and land. You will get great pictures there.

We have stayed there in the "off" season a couple of times when the weather did not permit us to go north on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. Seems like a better than average larger size KOA, and I love the air show!

We were there in April. They were upgrading the electric at some of the sites. We enjoyed the daily "air show".

Holiday Travel across the street will make for a nicer stay. They have a parking lot downtown a few blocks from the beach where you can park for free as a customer. We will be staying there in August

We thought it was a great park

We are staying here in August for two nights and that's exactly why we chose this place.
We'll see how it goes. It may be remembered as, "that noisy campground that had all of the jets flying overhead." Looking forward to it!

The Holiday Travel Park is much nicer than the KOA. I drove by there in April and it looked like they were doing lots of construction in the KOA campground.

Have stayed there once years ago. We like across the street from there several times and like it much better.

We stayed there last year. Nice clean campground. No complaints. Jets fly over most of the day. We enjoyed watching them. Shuttle bus to and from the beach comes into the campground on a regular basis.
We enjoyed our stay.

holiday travel is just across the st. and much nicer and friendlier IMHO

Have stayed many times at the Holiday travel Park. Each time we have enjoyed staying there. Many things to do there and see locally. Have read many posts with people not enjoying their stay at the KOA. Where every you stay, enjoy yourself.Take in the local sites and have a good time.

My parents stayed in the Airstrem they rent out. AC leaked everywhere and would not cool. KOA folks put them in the most expensive cabin they have PLUS refunded them for the 3 nights.

I have never stayed at the KOA but it looked nice. Jet noise could be an issue because we stayed across the road at the Holiday Travel park & until midnight it sounded like a jet was going to hit our camper. Noise was only a probl m during weeknights. We DO NOT PLAN TO RETURN TO THAT CAMPGROUND.
