"Easy exit off Rt 81, with several truck stops/gas stations at the exit to fill up. The roads are a bit hilly going into the campground, but we didn’t experience any issues.

LegendNice campground, has variety of accommodations including RV and tent sites and small cabins. Huge game room, heated pool and lots of recreation areas for kids. There is a stream and pond, which allows catch and release. Laundry is small but functional and right by pool deck that has covered tables. No issues with staff…everything smooth for reservations. We stayed here to visit friends close by and we also drove to WV to raft New River, about 90 minutes away.
ScoutClean sites Stayed in Brunson Site 44 by creek Some shade Water and electricity on sites Main camping is Creekside / tent platforms at Royal Oak All facilities super clean , laundry and lake for a cool dip. Lots of hikes from moderate to 5 mi hard.
ScoutMinimalist facilities. Good location. Has rv and tent sites. Right off blue Ridge Parkway.
Overall ok if you need a crash pad, but I would not seek it out
TravelerWe love this area already so as first time RVers, Meadows of Dan Campground was a natural pick. This campground has lovely tree cover in both the RV and tent camping areas. There are also cabins. The manager is very friendly & accommodating. We loved our first week so much we stayed two more!
GuideThe road to this site is WILD, but doable! I’ll leave photos of the worst spots to help you decide whether or not you should drive up to the top. We drove our 2WD Ford Maverick up the rocky road and it handled it just fine. It was dark when we pulled up and difficult to see the campsites if they were not occupied already. But we found a spot that we assumed was a campsite, pitched a tent, and made it work. We mainly wanted a quiet place to sleep and gorgeous morning views, and we got both!
GuideStayed in Campsite #1 Even though it is within view of the road, the running water sound of the creek behind us lulled us to sleep. We woke up around 9am, walked around and easily collected dead limbs for firewood for a hot breakfast. There are stairs from the campsite down to the creek so I took a cold plunge and swam around in the creek before we packed up camp. Visited Damascus, VA, which is close by and is such a beautiful town.
Side-note: About 45 minutes from here is a place called Blue Hole Falls near Elizabethan, TN. If you wanna see a gorgeous waterfall with mermaid cave vibes, go check that out!
ScoutWe stopped just for a night as we were traveling 74 south. It was just a little off the path (a few low trees on the route but nothing going slow and caulk won’t fix). Super easy pull through sites with convenient hookups. No bathrooms so did need to hook up water. Every body was super nice and friendly, 10/10 would stay again.
ScoutCamp host rude and disrespectful. Called the police over my daughter unloading her vehicle because she was parked in the wrong spot. This was after he got in her face and yelled at her and threatened her. Told us we had to move out of the campground immediately. We weren’t even there at the time. Very disrespectful to other tenants on the property as well.
LegendPipestem Resort State Park Southern West Virginia.
We spent 4 nights here. Used this park as a base camp for New River Gorge NP. There's many other State Parks we visited too.
This park has a LOT of razzle dazzle. A zip line, a golf course, no pool but a splash pad. They also have a tram that's closed right now for refurbishing.
A lake with fishing & boating. You can rent a boat.
The Nature Center is nice. The typical stuffed animals. You're not allowed to pet the bear!!
Lots of trails. A horse barn. A large "lodge" & cabins for rent.
There's 82 sites in the campground.
1- 31 have full hookup.
32- 49 electric only.
50- 82 water& electric
Sites 1-4 are handicapped sites.
We were in site 1 by the bathrooms/ showers.
There are pretty good sites, but watch the site descriptions for the incline.
The water/electric sites surround a large field. These sites tend to be sunny.
1- 49 are in the woods. The sites seem small, but the perimeter sites face the woods.
44 is a large site, but the incline is severe, so appropriate for Class B or tents.
I didn't like site 5 at all. It sits right as the road curves down a hill.
The showers/bathrooms were very much on the lower spectrum of state park clean. It looked like they had been remodeled fairly recently, but not cleaned often. The campground doesn't seem to generate the same attention as the rest of the park. There's no DNR presence, no one driving through the campground. We rarely saw any employees checking the bathrooms.
I would probably not stay here again since we won't be coming this way for a long time.
