Harbor View RV & Camping Resort Thousand Trails

We stayed here for nearly three week in space B21, a corner spot with a large front yard. Needed some time to catch up on life and work. This park is quite spacious. Has lots of open ground. Most of the spots are very big rig friendly with full hookups. While there's not a whole lot to do in the area, it is a nice place to relax. The staff is very friendly and stops by to chat. Once in a while. You can ask almost any favor from the front desk and if it's possible they'll deal with it. Seems to be very family friendly and there were a number of kids who were able to walk around freely in the park. Good cellular signal with T-Mobile internet. Averaging about 50 megabits per second. Many folks were using StarLink. There's lots of neighborhood walking close by. Stores and towns are at least 15 minutes drive though. They are very proactive in contacting you prior to arrival. You must check in during the day time and they are very clear about this. We saw a number of folks who arrived after dark who had to stay over in the parking lot until the next morning. They select the sites for you ahead of time and then guide you to your site.

This was a very quiet and nice campground. Several families, a good mix of very social people. Nice big pool with a 10-ft deep section, decent playground, and mini-golf. There was also a small community garden we could help ourselves too. Near by several State and National Parks with lots of road schooling opportunities. Getting in/out of the sites is a little tight for bigger rigs but not impossible.

I've been to this park several times, this time is was October at the end of the season. I've seen several complaints about the staff but Kim is now the manager and she's terrific. All the staff seem friendly and helpful but in the off-season there are limited office hours so plan ahead.

This park does not have the noon "land rush," spots are selected for you and there is NO self parking after hours so be sure to get there before they close or you'll be in the parking lot until the next morning.

Because I have an RV under 30' I get placed in these horrible spots on the camping circle flanked by trees that make it almost impossible to get into and out of if people aren't there to move vehicles so I don't like that. They have some pull-through sites but they are only for the larger RVs.

The pool, when opened, is very nice. The laundry room is clean (used quarters) and had a nice lending library in the entrance of the laundry. The game/family room has games and some activities but only in the summer season.

There is an wonderful walking path across from the park, through the homes on the water, with a nice loop a little over a mile.

This Thousand Trails accepts packages without charge.

Please stop reading old reviews, it’s all under new management and staffing. We were scared to go due to reviews but didn’t have any other TT options in the area. After arriving we had the best camping experience thus far. The staff made us feel like family, always polite and great with the kids. We got to play candy bar bingo with the kids. My 3 year old was catching fish everyday from the pond, playing at the pond and watching the fireflys glow at night around the community fire pit. This was by far the most family friendly campground that we have been to. We plan to come back around and possibly spend a few months next time. Tom, the member services liaison was always there to answers random questions as we recently upgraded our membership. Kelly who works up front has enough energy for two to three people, bound to make you laugh at least twice.

This park is very quiet at least in Mar-Apr it is, we used it to visit DC ~2 hrs away. It's close to Fredericksburg, a nice little town. Bathrooms are clean but old like most TT parks. The site was level, gravel. Electric, Sewer, and water were close and easy to use. There is a nice newer basketball court and putt-putt course. The office staff is really nice and so far they don't charge for packages. They do lock in your spot before you get here so its not a first come first serve. They guide you to your spot.

I use Fast.com for internet speeds. ATT 2.7 Mbps, Tmoblie 3.2 mbps

We are full timing and have been to SEVERAL thousand trails sites in 15 different states (including trails collection and encore sites) and I have NEVER been treated so rudely!!

After several complications and unexpected delays, and a LOT of frustrations, we arrived just after dusk only to find that we missed the "parking window" by mear minutes! Spent the first night in the parking lot and had to find our spot in the morning! Definitely added to our frustration.

Because we are full timing we've always had the ability to receive packages at the front office. We had planned on this and had several items shipped here only to find out that they returned all of them to sender. They stated that no thousand trails campsite receives packages on behalf of residents (which is absolutely not the case!) after a heated debate we convinced them to give us the diapers and medication sitting on the other side of the wall but they returned everything else! 😔

During our 2 week stay we would randomly loose power and water without warning. Our site was a massive swamp pit (granted we've had rain from hurricanes but other sites would dry up while ours remained a lake!) I have young children and several times they fell into the mud face first!!

Every time I tried to speak with someone in the office the only answer I received is "I don't know" or "I can't" - felt like they are a bunch of puppets barking commands for someone who refuses to connect with what their residents actually need! Seriously never again!

The area is out of the way and is flooded with standing water all over the place. I would never stay there after seeing the conditions.

This was our first time going to a thousand trails campground after getting the membership and upgrading to the trails collection too. We were using this as a one night stop to refill, dump and hook up for the night. We were just using it a free stop to our real destination - Carolina Pines in SC

We were so put off by how incredibly rude the woman who ran the place was. We have 2 girls (3 and 6) and because of some issues along the way we were not able to get to the camp until 9pm at night. We got our registration sheet from the door and tried to go to our site. This woman came up in her golf cart barking who are you. And then told us we needed to follow her back to the parking lot. We can not hook up and plug in after dark. I was so taken back by the way she spoke to us and her tone and mannerisms.

The sites had grass or maybe gravel but grass growing through. The place looked like a swamp with how much mud and water collected everywhere. There was a huge puddle even to walk to the office front door. I can only imagine all the bug and mosquitoes. Beware. They do not let you park after dark so if you are Not 100% sure you will get there on time, don’t waste your time or money.
