Point Lookout State Park

Situated on a pretty peninsula formed by the Chesapeake Bay and Potomac River, Point Lookout State Park has cast off its evil scars of the past and grown into a beautiful bay setting. The Marshland Nature Center and Civil War Museum host a number of summer programs for all ages, and children 7-12 years of age can learn what it takes to be a naturalist in the Junior Ranger program. The park can fill to capacity on summer weekends and holidays, but there’s always night fishing. Point Lookout has three fishing areas that stay open as long as your local Kwik-E-Mart, including a 710-foot fishing pier.

Reservation Camping on the Water!

Learn more about this land:

Nestle on the Pamunkey Indian Reservation also known for Spiritual Healing that overlooks the Pamunkey River.  The Pamunkey people have been here for over 10,000 years making this area one of the oldest reservations in the country.  

We have a small platform sitting right on the water for privacy and beautiful views of the river.  You may see Bald Eagles, Grey Herons, Ducks, Geese, River Otters,&nbsp;and so much more.  During low tide, the water is pulled back into the main part of the river and this is where you will see the wildlife during this time.  There are up to 8 Bald Eagles here at a time and during the Spring to Fall, you will see Osprey hunting for food right in front of you and usually getting chased by the Eagles.  What an awesome site to be able to camp and be a&nbsp;part of so many creatures all in their natural habitat.

We live right up the hill.&nbsp; Depending on where your tent is located, you may or may not see our home.&nbsp; Usually you cannot but want you to be aware.&nbsp; When you are camping, we respect your space and privacy to the fullest.

During the full moon, the water on the campsite will rise and you will need to camp closer to the land.&nbsp; Also, when the tied is out, you will not be able to launch the canoe or kayak.

There is a short path to walk and it is a very short incline.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Please note that hunting season starts in October, and you may hear the noise.

Picnic table to use for eating and watching the view.

Short distance trail to your camping site.

Outside shower can be used per person at $8.00.

Inside the outside shower.  Hot and cold water.  River rocks stones for reflexology.  Will sooth aching feet after a long day.  

Another beautiful sunset at your camping site!
