Great little campground tucked away in the woods but also just a short drive from Fayetteville, Summersville, and all the outdoor rec that the mountains of WV have to offer. The owner is very friendly and accommodating, prices are good, facilities are kept clean and there’s hot water to shower with. You can choose from different size campsites with room for multiple tents, an overland rig, full 20+ person group camp set up, or a single minimalist gig. There campfire rings in each site and firewood for sale and you usually have decent privacy from the other campsites unless it’s bridge day weekend (massive local festival).
Grate place to stay for Upper Gualey rafting....Camp staff wa s super friendly. Rates were good. Was told that there was a black bear wandering the camp ground but we were unable to locate it...oh well. There is also a burrito joint close by. A++. Thank you.
Very kind owner. I showed at last minute and was still accepted. Clean restroom with hot running shower. Conveniently close to New River Gorge NP.
We stayed 4 nights and were very impressed with this campground! The tent sites are MUCH larger than average and the bathhouse was neat and clean. Hot water and a wash sink for dishes are always a plus! Seth was beyond friendly and was quick to answer questions about our stay! We would definitely stay again if we visit the area again!!!!
Definitely one of the most beautiful campgrounds I've been in the new river gorge. I was here with several friends and we had a couple different camps say it's. The people around were very kind, the owner was very kind, and it was genuinely just a beautiful and very well taken care of site. There is climbing very close, and it's definitely really close to the heart of New River Gorge. Love this campground, will be coming back.
