I visited Robert Craig Campground in May '23. I had a great experience. The reason for the 4/5 stars is because they only have electric sites. If they had full-hookup I would give them 5/5. The staff is real nice, very well maintained. The store has weird hours but if you need something, a camp host will open the store on off hours. Restrooms and showers are kept clean. If you plan on doing work while visiting, there is very poor cell signal so consider yourself unplugged. The best cell signal was1-2 bars of LTE, no G. I plan on going back myself but without full-hookup I'll be leaving the family at home.
Nice little Army Corps campground. Well kept and it's surprisingly nice for the area. The camp store has very limited hours and you have to travel off the mountain if it's closed, so prepare ahead of time. Short drive to the WV boat launch at Jennings Randolph.
Nice ACE campground. Most of the sites are very nice all are paved. Some have addition of gravel to extend the length. Some are short and some are far from level even though they’re paved. There is one shower house so if you’re in the higher numbered loop you need to walk through the wooded path or around the road. Bath house and shower house maybe a 6/10. Mostly clean but pretty dated and lack of upkeep in terms of painting etc. the roads getting from Keyser, WV or Westernport MD are narrow, winding and have steep switchbacks. Not big rig friendly but big rigs can manage them at a low speed. I would NOT take the road to or from Keyser with a camper. We did it getting there and then did 46 to amd from Westernport. There are a couple of nice hiking trails. There’s no path, that we found, from the campground to the lake. The lake is beautiful and clear and has a swimming beach, picnic area and overlook with Waffle rock (an interesting 300 million year old unique geological pattern, and lake construction history.
This is our second campsite. I'm just a beginner camper, but I'm wildly excited. The children didn't want to leave. Every day there was some kind of entertainment for the children. Thank you, we enjoyed it very much.
Nice little campground with nice hiking trails. Deer. Flush toilets. Clean. Shower was ok. Water wasn't overly hot but quite doable. Very nice hosts. Water available (not at site). Steep hills and narrow turns getting to cg but not a problem - 33' 5th wheel and full size dually.
