We were very unlucky with weather so could not fully enjoy the campgrounds, but what we did get to use was great, especially splash pad. A few things that weren't great - The sink to wash dishes behind the bathroom was very dirty and clogged with grass and it's water spout was badly positioned. The shower heads in the main bathhouse need to be replaced, leaky, and bad water pressure

We stayed in the deluxe cabin. It was great. Very clean, ample space, nicely located to the amenities. The amenities were very nice. The pool was alot of fun. The snack bar had a very nice selection, with reasonable prices. Overall a very nice campground that I would return to. Very quiet.

The cottage was beautiful and we enjoyed our stay. The mosquitoes however were terrible and if anything would keep us from coming back it would be them. Please consider spraying for them. We have never received so many bites in a weekend.

We had an amazing time! Everyone was so friendly and helpful!

Are stay was good. But there is spotty wifi. Pools Where nice. Cabins where very nice and clean. The people that work there are very professional, and friendly.

Barbara in the front office was wonderful. Very helpful and accommodating. There were activities for kids other than the pool. There used to be activities all the time during the summer. The Snack Shack hours were terrible and was closed wed. The staff other than Barbara were rude. Conversations were happening about had bad things were and who was leaving. Not what you want to hear on vaca.

The only bad thing was that cabin 10 wasn't very clean; the bathroom shower floor was dirty and smelled like cat urine. We also had family in cabin 11, and it wasn't like that.

All employees were super kind and friendly. Most of the food in general store was expired. RV definitely needs some updating. Couldn’t sleep on pull-out; it was so old, blood was literally rushing to my head. Also surprised no entertainment. Stayed here many times in past with family, and always had entertainment on Fridays and Saturdays. Maybe this is a KOA thing, but very disappointing.

Cottage was very clean and nice. Campground was very clean. Very laid back campground, pretty quiet especially on weekdays. Wish they had some activities scheduled on days other than Saturday.

We just returned from a quick weekend stay at Tall Pines. Quick and easy check in. Campground amenities were excellent and staff was great. Beach was ok. That said, I would not consider staying here again due to the lack of cell service and the terrible mosquito issue. We were warned about both but those were deal breakers for me. We’ll be headed to Cape Charles next year - much better stay.

Poor internet connection, too many mosquitoes probably due to alot of standing water. Nice quality Deluxe cabins. Great water splash pool, on sight boat launch & lake. 30min to Chincoteague
Aug 08, 2025
The unexpected lack of wifi and inability to reach anyone or be reached by anyone is a problem. We had heard great things about the grill, which is apparently only open half the week. The kids loved the splash pad and arcade and our cabin was clean and comfortable.
Aug 08, 2025
Kids had fun at the playground, jump pad and pool. The piers were great. Couldn't rent water bikes and no employees were ever at the rental area. Front desk employee told another guest that it was due to wind - there was no wind or gusts. Weird. Cabin = clean. Comfort stations = clean. Political flags = negative stain. No hot water in cabin 1st night, fixed in the morning. Overpriced snack bar.

We had a great time. Location is wonderful, campsite is clean and well maintained. One small comment... We couldn't check-in until 3:00 and didn't arrive until 4:00 (due to traffic delays) and made it to the park just in time before the office closed. Maybe allow check-in a little earlier, or keep the office open a little longer (6:00?).
Aug 04, 2025
Not that we were there for it, but the WiFi doesn’t work at all and our cabin didn’t have hot water! Other than that clean people are friendly! Wonderful camp ground!
Aug 03, 2025
Our cabin was great. Disappointed in the staff that checked us in. She was very negative about the reason for our visit- the pony swim- and actually talked at least two groups out of going with her negativity ( it was the reason they were there!) the “beach” leaves a lot to be desired. We did use the pool daily. Internet was worse than spotty. As a home base for the pony swim it was great.
Aug 03, 2025
We were very comfortable in our cabin as well as the rest of the camp.
Aug 03, 2025
Cabin was wonderful! Very relaxing few days! Staff was great.... very friendly and helpful! We will be back.A little upgrade to WiFi coverage would be nice. Check my FB post. BONNIE BALL-Doerfler.

Great staff, & loved accomdationw
Aug 02, 2025
The cabin we had was next to a stagnant drainage ditch filled with water, and there were a ton of mosquitoes. Accommodations were minimal in the cabin. I have to say it was one of the most uncomfortable stays I have had anywhere. The older cabins might be better, and the campground itself was nice.
Aug 01, 2025
Thanks for helping us upgrade to a cabin from a tent site in the crazy heat during our stay
Jul 31, 2025
We originally booked a tent site but it started torrential raining. We moved to an African safari tent and CANNOT RECOMMEND THEM ENOUGH. We had a blast!
Jul 29, 2025
Mosquito infested False Marketing - No rentals available all week. Waters calm as can be and employees say because of weather they aren't doing rentals. Food only available a couple days of the week, for specific hours. Beach snack shack never opens apparently. Incredibly rude staff. When asking questions we didn't receive answers. Just snarky remarks! - 2 cars should mean 2 gate passes

We are seasoned campers but we've never stayed at a KOA before. Overall, it was a very cool experience. The cabin was pretty clean and laid out well. I wish that there were fans available to rent or provided in the room because we roasted overnight. Zero airflow and it was very buggy. I would have brought my own fans had I realized this. Bathrooms also had zero airflow which was kind of gross.

This was our first experience "Glamping". the cabin was amazing. why not a 5-star review? THE STAFF! When being escorted to our cabin the lady was going much faster than the 5.5 mph posted. My son was constantly being harassed & told to slow down on our RENTED cart, even with his parents there! It took me over 30 mins to purchase a shirt because she could not find the price sheet... price tags!

Cabin was nice and clean. Pool was fantastic!
Jul 28, 2025
Thank you for a wonderful stay with you all . Definitely going to do this again. Love the cabins so nice and comfortable. Love it

It was very nice! We enjoyed our cabin and the campground.

Staff was not friendly. “Extras” are only open on weekends. Only thing free was pool and jump pad. Did not explain things well, had difficulty figuring things out the first couple of days. Had a flood the week prior, was not notified. Bugs were terrible. The grounds were nice. Cottage was dirty when we arrived.
Jul 26, 2025
The campground was very clean and quiet. However, we stayed in a cabin and had zero cellphone and WiFi reception. We could not use either TV in the cabin because of the lack of WIFI. This left us isolated and in total silence while at our cabin. The store hours of 9-5 are inconvenient when check in for cabins is 3. That is only two hours. We would’ve been lost had we not just made it at 5.

Had a great time. Stayed in the deluxe cabin which worked but we were told the bed sizes before we came and there was no double on the bunk bed so we didn't bring the right size sheets. When i called we were given the wrong cabin number too. Long lines at the store. Only 1 person working and that person was rude. Lots of mosquitoes so do not forget spray or you will get eaten alive.
Jul 21, 2025
Another great stay at the KOA! We are a family of 4 with two young children (3 and 6). We stayed in one of the cabins, which was plenty of space. The campground itself was very nice with a splash park, fishing pier, playground, beach, etc. We even caught some crabs off of the pier. The location of the grounds was also nice - bayside and not too far from Saxis, then 15-20 minutes to oceanside.
Jul 19, 2025
Staff seemed friendly but our alternator went out on our car and we needed a charger so we could get it to the shop and was told they helped and we sat stranded not to mention acting like we were in the way for asking. The rental and snack shack weren't open at all during our stay. I know weekends they make more money but all amenities should be open all the time. When it rained just awful swamp

The cabin was very clean when we came in. The only thing is the fridge needed to be defrosted. The freezer was frozen over.

So here is the think I would have rated #1 an 8 and #2 an 4. However, Barbara who works at your front desk is not a nice person...racist in fact. She is your front line, first impression of Tall Pines and is a very poor representation. She was the talk at the pool party on 7/12 by many people of all races who recognized her behavior, including to me and my sister.
Jul 14, 2025
Nice place but a lot of issues around maintenance.Stove kept shutting off when you tried to cook for longer than a few minutes. The bathroom door was broken and jammed. The WiFi called “spotty” is nonexistent. Don’t bother to try and watch tv since no cable only streaming & no WiFi. The tv in the bedroom was hooked up to nothing - decorative only. Beach was nice. Lots of standing water in
Jul 13, 2025
Loved our stay with TALL Pines. Always a great time. We would like to see the Internet make some improvements. Other than that great stay. As always!
Jul 13, 2025
It rained leading everything to flood, campsites surrounded by water and mud. Bugs outside and inside our cabin. You can’t swim in the water due to stinging nettle jelly fish. The new pool was nice. Cabin was dirty and things like door handles and flooring were falling apart. It’s very far away from anywhere to eat or shop even a grocery store is 15 minutes.
Jul 13, 2025
Very disappointed this time. 1. Snack bar was closed Monday-Thursday and we were never told 2. Camp stores closed at 4ish 3. So much pooling water at the cabin 4. No water toys were available 5. Pool continue to have missing umbrellas 6. Stove in cabin only had a setting of 9 or 0 7. No list of included items in cabin prior to renting 8. No WIFI!! It’s 2025 and would be helpful
Jul 10, 2025
I will say the fireworks were stunning!! The staff this year was not as friendly as they were in years past, definitely a different vibe at check in and check out (even got a little scolded about check out at 11 when we were checking out at 10:30 NOT by the younger lady at the front she was ALWAYS super nice.) Cottage was very well kept we will be back as it's one of our fav. spots w/the fam.
Jul 10, 2025
We love the campground have camped in both our tent and rented cabins several times. This review is specific to our first experience renting one of the RVs and it was honestly gross and falling apart. Most blinds and screens were broken and covered in stains, the carpet was full of sand, upholstered furniture was stained and ripped. Shower head and sink faucet broken. Unit should not be rented.

The campground was really nice and peaceful. Friendly staff, but other guests are not welcoming different cultures and made us feel unwelcome.
Jul 08, 2025
Very nice

We have had such a great year at the campground! There have been so many positive improvements, and it has honestly just felt like a really great season all around. I am especially happy with our new General Manager, Amanda. She has been so approachable, kind, and communicative, and you can tell she truly wants to be present and involved. Whether she is checking in with campers, joining in on activities, helping her team, or simply being available when needed, her presence has made such a positive difference this year. The entire team has also been wonderful. From the office staff to maintenance and housekeeping, everyone is always so friendly and welcoming. You really feel like people care about the campground and about the families who spend their time here. And having the “Snack Shack” right on property is definitely an added bonus! This is our seventh year camping here, and this place holds so many special memories for our family. We have gotten to make memories year after year while raising our daughter here, and it truly feels like our home away from home. We are so excited for the rest of the season and are already talking about and planning for next year. So thankful for another great year, all of the positive changes, and the many memories still to come!

My favorite place I've traveled to, camped at or experienced. Very relaxing, very friendly people, very convenient. Everything you need in a vacation all in one area on the east coast. Pet friendly. Fun friendly. They have special events and everything. I've made this destination my home away from home and my annual birthday tradition. Like I went camping, in a tent, during a thunderstorm. Not only was I safe, but Mr Trey actually came and checked on us. Everyone was real neighborly. All the staff was friendly and cordial. But Mr Trey is super helpful and energetic. I do recommend.

We rented a cute little clean cabin for a couple of nights. Lots to keep young kids active and involved in the play and pool area.
