Hikers seeking a backcountry experience will find this cabin requires a trek through Camp Creek State Park to reach. The WV Division of Natural Resources manages this hike-in accommodation, which sits near the creek that gives the park its name. Reservations are available for this paid facility.
The cabin provides basic amenities including toilets, picnic tables, and allows campfires. Its hike-in access means campers must carry all gear to the site. Other camping options within the park include Mash Fork Campground and several horse-friendly areas for those preferring drive-up sites.
