Lazy A Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

River access draws anglers and swimmers to Lazy A Campground in Hedgesville, West Virginia, where a creek runs alongside the property and gives campers a place to fish or wade without leaving the grounds. Sites near the water are notably spacious, and most have partial shade from a tree line along the perimeter. The campground is small in total number of sites, which keeps the atmosphere low-key, especially on weekdays.

The layout includes grassy RV sites with 30-amp electric and water hookups, one 50-amp site, tent sites, and two small rental cabins. Each site has a fire ring and picnic table. One practical note for RV owners: the water supply has a sulfur smell and has been reported to stain fixtures and clog filters after even a short stay, so bringing a dedicated filtration setup is worth considering. The bathhouse includes showers, though the stalls are compact and the facility sits some distance from the creek-side sites, with a port-a-potty provided closer to the water.

Beyond the sites themselves, the grounds include a playground, horseshoe pits, basketball, and a barn pavilion suitable for group gatherings. Tim S. describes it as a "small and quiet campground" with "river access for fishing or splashing around." Owners are consistently mentioned across reviews as responsive and attentive, from delivering firewood to campsites ahead of arrival to accommodating last-minute site changes. Rates run $30 to $40 per night. Campers looking at places to camp around Gerrardstown will find Lazy A a solid choice for families with kids and pets.

Pretty WV countryside

This campground is small but the sites are spacious- the ones by the creek are. The bathouse is quite a ways from the sites by the creek but they provide a port-a-potty, which was quite full when I was there- thank goodness the days weren’t hot. The bathhouse needs updating- stalls are small and water from the showers go everywhere. Only saw a worker once and I’m not sure he was a worker? It was a weird stay.

Quiet campground

This is a really nice campground. Large grassy sites. Easy to maneuver. Lots of open space. Clean bath house. Helpful owners. The only reason it lost a star is that the water has sulfur. It smells and it stained our brand-new toilet and we had to replace all our water filters after one weekend.

Wide open space!

This campground is fantastic for kids and pets. Lots of wide open space to run and play. The owners are fantastic! So friendly and accommodating. He would even deliver all the firewood to guests at their campsites before they arrived. Clean and very residential feeling bathhouse.

Quiet & simple

Small and quiet campground. Gorgeous location in the fall. River access for fishing or splashing around. Decent amenities for the price. The owner/staff is helpful: When we asked if we could move to a space closer to the playground for our kids, he put us in the pull through that wasn't being used.

Down home country

I loved this campground. It is not a large campground in number of sites but has huge open fields for lots of outdoor fun. It has tent sites and level rv sites with 30 amp and water. No sewer. And one 50 amp site. Most sites have partial shade from the tree line. Each site has a fire ring and plastic picnic table. It has a creek for swimming or wading at your own risk. It also has horseshoes, playground, large outdoor picnic area, as well as a clean bathhouse with showers. There is a dump station and trash dumpster for your convenience on the way out of the campground.

Nice family campground

We choose this campground due to its location near an event we were attending. It was last minute and the owner was amazingly accommodating! I called Friday to see about one of the 2 cabins for that weekend and he went to look and offered to call me back. We stayed 2 nights in the smaller cabin (12x8). We affectionately called it our She-shed but it had everything we would need for a quick trip. There are 2 twin beds, a small fridge with freezer, trash can, microwave, coffee pot and AC. Outside there was a picnic table, grill, fire pit and wood available for sale. At the time we were there it was $5 a bundle. The cabin does not have water but he offered to add a splitter to the nearby spigot but we had brought our camping jug. The owners are friendly and fast! They were quick to accommodate any requests and checked on us as we were cleaning up to check out to ask if we needed anything. The camp ground has a dump station, sites with electric and water, primitive sites for tents, access to the river, bathrooms, showers, ice and a playground. There is a barn which housed a pavilion for events and a large expanse of grass for the kids to play. Everyone was really friendly and we had a great time. I definitely recommend a stay if you're in the area.
