Best Things Nearby:
Paramount Kings Dominion Amusement/Water Park is two great parks for the price of one (40 minutes from the resort). 1863 battlefields. Close to Washington DC.

Best Things About the Resort:
The cabins are really cozy but large with a front/back porch and grill/full kitchen and are fairly new looking. It’s really close to Paramount Kings Dominion, which is a fun amusement park with lots of rides and a great water park for a reasonable price. There are free/reasonably priced on-site activities, three pools (one indoor), an open gym and a small beach, and really cheap fishing/boating rental.

Resort Experience:
Well, it's a camping resort. It's not plush, but it's a large cozy cabin with whirlpool, full kitchen (try and get one by the lake). It has on-site fun activities like fishing/boating indoor/out pools, putt putt golf course that is reasonable in price and it's close to Paramount Kings Dominion, battlefields, and Washington DC, as well as nice restaurants and shopping places nearby. Also good for winter/fall rental as Kings Dominion is open in October for Halloween. And the activities center is open and you can still boat/fish on the lake or use the indoor pool.

This park is huge and lots of fun. It has tons of thrill rides, lots of shows, and the water park is fabulous with lots of fun for all ages. It has a wave pull a water works and the food prices are reasonable. Great family fun. And the Presidential Resort is just minutes away.
