Sun Outdoors Chesapeake Bay

We stayed here for the 1st time for opening weekend for the 2022 season. They've been recently acquired by Sun so some of the bugs were still being worked out but overall it was a great experience. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They had a chili cookoff, band and golf cart parade. I can see where this place would be fun in the summer with their beach.

We stayed at one of the 5 or 6 water front sites. They are a premium but well worth it. Our site was dead nuts level. Each water front site has a great firepit with adjustable grate and a log swing which is great for sitting for quiet reflection with your favorite beverage. If you are travelling with dogs they don't have a dog park but there's plenty of open space if you want them to run a bit.

This would be a great basecamp for the surrounding attractions. Half hour to Chincoteague and an hour from Assateague. Stores and such are about 20 min away. Camp store has the basics you may need.

I didn't use the bathhouse so I can't comment on that.

Positives:
Water front sites are outstanding
Very friendly and attentive staff
Variety of site types from full hookups to water/electric and primitive camping down by the beach and in the woods.
Lots of good stuff to do for kids (playground, bounce pillow, woods and a pier to play on/around)
Verizon 5G at places.
Wifi was good closer toward the pools/campstore/pavillion. It was usable at the waterfront sites.
Golf carts for rent

Negatives:
Inland sites can be very wet if it rains heavy
No dog park (that I found anyway) but there is definitely space for one.

Our RV Garmin GPS and Waze brought us in on the back roads at Accomac versus keeping us on US-13. If the Temperanceville address doesn’t work, replace Temperanceville with Sanford, VA, per their website. Roads were OK but a little narrow. US-13 to Saxis Rd/695 is a much easier and direct route to the CG. Once we arrived, check-in was easy. We had requested site 50, back-in with FHUs but were told since the park was fairly empty, we could take a golf cart and go choose a site. We declined as 50 was in the pines, but still had water view. The seasonal weekenders had gone home, and we preferred the larger, more private area behind the site to walk our dogs. We were guided to Site 50, which was an easy back-in with the utilities nicely placed. Tall Pines is a large campground with a lot of nice amenities. One of the really nice points about this CG is that they cater to short termers as well as seasonal. There are a wide variety of sites to choose from and other than some of the seasonal sites, they are not stacked on top of each other. Our site was back by the cabins, which were all in excellent shape. Tall Pines hosts activities for the northern part of the Eastern Shore plus there are 3 pools and a horse riding area. Satellite could be iffy for sites near 50 plus other areas due to the trees. There are very nice water view sites and some of the premium sites have cable. We got two bars on both AT&T and Verizon. Their free WiFi worked about average for this sized CG. You have to drive 10 or so minutes to find amenities. Along with a very friendly and helpful staff, the CG also had propane and a nice stack of firewood for $5. The laundry room was very clean and fairly priced. Tall Pines has a first-rate onsite store. The store has t-shirts, bread, milk, etc. but also a wide selection of RV accessories to include faucets & water pumps at fairly reasonable prices. This is a great place to stay and check out Chincoteague and Assateague Islands, without having to stay in the higher priced tourist area.

We got a large pull thru with shade pines. The water is good and electric worked great. We enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and the people that work here are great. They are constantly working to make sure the place is clean and maintaining the whole park. My wife and I toured several camp grounds in the area just to see the competition. In my opinion Tall Pines has none. The Wi-Fi in the campground is as good as in my house.

I found when I got checked in they offer a free night after 6 days. That would have been nice to know before planning this trip. The shower house was very clean. If I get a chance to come back next year this place will be my only choice.

This was our first night out, after picking up AIROSMITH from the dealer. We were fortunate to find this, given that the park had opened for the season just 2 days prior. As such, the we were among the few that were in the park.Additionally, a cold front arrived just as we did. It kept us inside, which was okay with us.

We chose the area, because we wanted to visit the Assateague/Chincoteague National Seashore. While the cold kept us out of the kayaks, and off the bikes, the visit did not disappoint.

The park has a well stocked store, in addition to close access to services at T's Corner.
