These site numbers don’t match up. First Landing has changed the way the sites are marked. You can’t tell from these photos what sites you are viewing. They are no longer marked as (A1-A34, B1-B39, etc…) They are now marked 1 – 205.
Thanks for the heads up Scott! We will plan to reshoot First Landing State Park later this year and replace the photos.
When will the new photos replace the old photos on the website with the old campsite numbers?
Hi Amber,
We hope to reshoot First Landing State Park this fall and post soon after. Sorry for the inconvenience.
I see you have updated the photos but can you update the ‘best sites’ too 🙂
Thank you for all the work you do to maintain this site.

Hi Diana,
We actually have not updated the photos yet for First Landing State Park, but a photographer is scheduled to reshoot in the next few weeks. We will announce the when we have the updated photos and include the ‘best campsites’. Sorry for the delay.
the pictures do look like they have been updated??
Hi Kim,
Not yet, but a photographer is scheduled to reshoot the campground soon (October).
Can you share photos of the Kendall Loop sites 1-10?
Hi Amy,
Sorry, we don’t have the K-loop photographed yet, but hope to get new photos of all First Landing State Parks in the near future.
The sites don’t match up; any update? Thanks
Hi Tom,
Thanks for checking in. We had a photographer reshoot all campsites in 2020. They are all current and match the thumbnails on ReserveAmerica. Which ones do you think are not correct?

I found a pencil in my sister’s belongings from First Landing State Park. I’ve never heard about the park but would like to visit. It looks quite secluded from the pictures. I hope to take a visit soon. Are they any cabins to rent? Thank you so much
Hi Linda,
That must be a sign (the pencil from First Landing State Park)! Hope you get the chance to visit it. There are 20 cabins available to rent at the park. You can click on the ‘Make A Reservation’ button to check availability, pricing and make a reservation.
