I
stayed here instead of a hotel to prepare for a wedding. It was great! Both
cottages were spotless, and there were little touches that made me feel
welcome. I had to prepare a meal for a large number of people, as well as get
dressed in a gown, and the large, clean areas and fully equipped kitchen made
it easy. Maintenance even stopped by because a light bulb was out, and they
were there within 15 minutes!
There
were plenty of pillows, and the bed was really comfortable. The train did come
by, but I honestly didn't notice it after the first time. The staff was really
friendly, and helped with whatever I needed. The owner even let me borrow his
crock pot, because I forgot mine at home!
I would
definitely stay here any time I'm in Williamsburg again. It's like staying at a
hotel room with a kitchenette, but with much more room, and more privacy.

Hi Jump
brothers, Bernice, and staff:
Thank
you for my third year of great RV'ing Anvil
Campground. Both when I visited solo and
when I visited with my brothers, it's always a pleasure to be your guest.
As you
know, as a recreational runner I love the convienence
of your location. As a frequently Amtrak
passenger I love the ease of seamless transportation between your park and the
Williamsburg Amtrak station.
Lastly,
the kindness and personal touch that you extend to me makes Anvil Campground
"feel like home". I'm looking
forward to seeing you again next year.
Many
thanks and kindest regards,
-Charles

-4 out
of 5 stars
We
recently stayed at Anvil for a week on a family vacation. The campground is
very nice. The sites are small and more suited to large travel trailers or big
rigs that don't need much space beyond the camper. The staff was excellent and
very helpful. Nice, well stocked store and clean bathrooms with nice showers.
Location is great! We were just a few miles from Colonial Williamsburg.
Campground offers a nice shuttle service to the Visitor Center although we
didn't use it because we had a pet with us. The train could be an issue if loud
noises bother you. The train ran right behind our site and was quite loud with
a lot of vibration. It only bothered us the first night but then we got used to
it and since we love trains it was kind of neat. Would
recommend taking a more premium site if you don't want to be right up against
the train tracks. Lots of things to do in the area and
multiple good restaurants. Super Walmart &
Lowe's & Home Depot close by. Thanks for a great week, Anvil. We'll be back
next time we're in the area!

-4 out
of 5 stars
I found
this camp on the Internet and decided to give it a try since it was very close
to Busch Gardens, Water Country and Colonial Williamsburg. We rented the
Journeyman Cottage and it was great! It comfortably slept 6 people and the only
thing we had to provide was linens for the futon couch and the extra cots. The campground itself and its facilities are very
well maintained and the staff is very friendly and helpful. There are plenty of
restaurants, gas stations and a super Walmart in the
immediate area. One thing you should be aware of is that a railroad track does
run behind the campground. There is a tree line that separates the camp from
the tracks so there is not a safety issue but it is a working track and trains
do run at all hours. This may be a show stopper for some, especially for a
light sleeper but for me it brought back memories of my childhood and the
trains that ran behind our house. We will definitely be returning to Anvil
Campground!

Just 10

is very helpful and knowledgeable of the area and attractions. They were very
accommodating of our adding an extra night and our late check-in - they even
called to remind us. Water, electric, cable and wi-fi
were included. The trains are pretty loud but this did not bother us as we had
the AC on in our pop-up. We would definitely stay there again.

-5 out
of 5 stars
What a
great campground. So close to Busch Gardens and any restaurant you would ever
want. The campground, bath houses, pool and everything in between is spotless.
Think they scrubbed the road before we arrived. The owners could not have been
any nicer. Even when we parked on the wrong site, they simply changed their
system instead of having us move our camper. Thank you! We stayed in a standard
site and it fit our 34' camper just fine. Next time I will reserve a Preferred site, only because we want to return and do more
things in the area and make it a longer stay.
There
is a train track that runs along the rear of the campground. Thick tree line
and fence is there so no safety issue. However, if you have light sleeper you
may want to park a row over. The trains were just a couple during the night and
wasn't an issue for us.
This
was actually my 2nd stay at this campground. The last time was about 30 years
ago with my parents and after arriving at Anvil we noticed our hot water tank
in the camper had a leak. This was our first stop on a 10 week vacation. My dad
asked the owner where he could get it fixed and the owner (same family/owner as
now) took our tank and said to go enjoy the parks and he would take care of it.
We return that evening to our camper and the hot water tank was fixed and
installed back into the camper. Payment for services??
Asked only that we return. Sorry it took me 30 years.
Thanks
again for a great stay. !!

"LOVE
this place!! Family owned, friendly folks.
All sites shaded, very well kept.
Pool, lots of play areas for kids.
Bus service to all attractions and all of Williamsburg stops here. $1.50 gets you an all day bus pass and kids
ride free.
Next
to a train track. If that bothers you, it may be an issue. But, I love the clackity
clack sound of a train and found it peacefully soothing. I also loved the nesting Robins and bay birds
in the trees and on the playground equipment.
Site #77 is next to a play area and it's like having a huge site with a
private play area.
One of
the best campgrounds I have stayed in!!"

My fiance and I stayed here back in June in the Journeyman
Cottage. For the price we were paying I figured it would be no different then a hotel room. Boy was I wrong! The cottage was like a
house having everything we needed. We only had to bring the cloths on our back
and food. Everything else was supplied.
The
office and maintenance staff is so friendly and very well informed on what to
do in the Williamsburg area. When we checked-in, the staff went out of their
way to explain what attractions to see and how much time we would need to see
it all.
Next
time we come to Williamsburg we are definitely staying at Anvil Campground! I
would suggest everyone else to do the same.

We
stayed at Anvil over New Year’s weekend and it was fantastic!! Do not believe
the negatives...go see for yourself!! Yes, there is a
train. Yes, there is a road nearby. It all adds to the ambience of camping. The
sites were clean, level and easy to get into. The staff was very accommodating.
We have stayed there previously and are planning another stay in April 11 with
6 other families. The campground is very convenient to shopping, dining,
colonial Williamsburg and any other attraction there is in the area. The owners
didn't deliberately build a campground between a railroad track and
roadway....it was inherited and passed down from generation to generation.
Support small family owned business and give Anvil a try...you'll be glad you
did.
