Boaters and anglers use Kilsoquah Camp as a launching point for exploring J. Edward Roush Lake, though campers should note the water access sits quite a distance from the actual camping sites. This Army Corps of Engineers facility in Huntington provides both electric and primitive sites at $12-15 per night, with most accommodating RVs up to 20 feet and several large enough for Class A motorhomes.
The campground spreads across different areas, with some sites positioned in open areas and others tucked back into wooded sections near the trees. Sites come equipped with picnic tables and fire rings with cooktops, plus access to pit toilets and drinking water throughout the facility. A one-mile hiking loop extends from the end of the primitive camping area. Campers should watch for poison ivy, oak, and sumac in the wooded sections.
Three garbage dumpsters serve the campground drive, and a dump station handles RV waste needs. The facility includes playground equipment and paved areas suitable for biking. Alysha W. notes there's "a shooting range across the lake so there is gunfire most of the day." No camp host stays on-site, and swimming isn't permitted on the reservoir. Firewood sells for $3 per armload at a private driveway one mile east on Highway 224.
The campground works well for budget-conscious campers seeking lake access and families needing playground facilities, though those wanting quiet may want to avoid busy weekends when some sites experience crowding issues.
