Moxley Branch Campground — Beech Fork State Park

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Fishing, paddling, and lakeside hiking give Moxley Branch Campground its rhythm on Beech Fork Lake in West Virginia. Roughly a third of the sites sit directly on the water, and rental kayaks and paddle boats are available on-site, making it easy to get out on the lake without hauling gear. The lake sees little motorboat traffic, which one reviewer noted makes it "nice to kayak without worrying of large boats." Wildlife is a regular presence, including ducks, geese, and deer that wander through camp, and checking seasonal bird migration schedules is worth the effort for those interested in birding.

Sites are spacious and open, each with a fire pit and picnic table, and many include electric, water, and sewer hookups suited to RVs. The bathhouses are dated but consistently described as clean. Cell coverage is uneven: Verizon has limited signal here, while AT&T tends to fare better. WiFi is available near the boathouse in the main campground area. There is also a camp store stocked with basics. Note that the swimming pool and beach area carry separate fees beyond the overnight rate, and tent camping prices have risen significantly in recent years.

Beech Fork State Park manages several distinct campground areas, including Old Orchard Campground — Beech Fork State Park, Four Coves Campground — Beech Fork State Park, and Lake View Campground — Beech Fork State Park, each with different hookup configurations. Reservations are recommended, particularly for waterfront sites on weekends. Campers who want to explore the broader region can browse campgrounds near Beech Fork State Park for additional options. Book ahead and arrive ready to spend time on the water.

Large camping sites, lots to do!

We camped for two nights midweek at Beech Fork. We chose it because the campsites are on a lovely lake. It was a good choice! The campsites are large, each with a fire pit and picnic table. Many are shaded. There are lots of things to do in addition to ranger-led activities. Rental kayaks and paddle boats are available, and a swimming pool and exercise course as well. If you choose a site on the water, ducks may well waddle into your camp looking for a handout. We had a delightful time!

Beautiful, large park

I'm amazed at how large this park is. The sites are not on top of each other. There are 4 different campgrounds to choose from based on the amenities you need/want for hookup. A fairly stocked camp store has all the camping basics. Plenty of hiking, fishing, and boating. Just beautiful

The bathrooms are dated but fairly clean. Verizon does not work here but ATT does. There is wifi in the main campground at the boathouse but that is all.

First stay

Campground was nice. Staff was nice. Spots were roomy. They had recently mowed but left all the clippings so it that was quite messy especially being in a tent. Lake was nice to kayak without worrying of large boats. Even though we were paying to stay overnight for 3 nights, it was an additional charge for the pool AND to go to the beach area. I think if you are paying to stay on the grounds this should be included.

Top notch

The best place to camp in WV in my humble opinion. Kids can enjoy themselves riding bikes and not have to worry about them getting hit by cars. You can take a kayak or even boat up to your campsite. There is a disc golf course at the campgrounds as well. If swimming in the lake isn’t your thing then the beech fork pool is not even a min away, nice big pool with 2 diving boards and also a kiddie pool for the wee little ones. All in all it’s a great place and you should definitely try it!

Looking for a great getaway with lots of stuff to do?

Go to Beech Fork! I’ve been camping here with my family for close to ten years now and we always have a blast. I’ve stayed in primitive sites and RV sites and you can’t really go wrong with either (my review will be 4 stars until I check out the cabins)! Whether you’re looking to spend some time on the lake, fish, hike, bike, or even learn a thing or two about West Virginia history, Beech Fork will typically have you covered. The park stays clean and the staff are pretty good people as well!

Lovely valley surrounded by mountians

This campground offers a handful of trails easy to moderate. Pretty lake with ducks everywhere, as well as geese. Saw many deer through out our stay, even some beaters. Bathhouse is nice and laundry one spot. Oh and it was butterfly maiting season. There is also a creek that runs along the nature trail, which is a super shot walk, that was perfect for walking through or wading in the water. Although the further you get up steam from the lake the cleaner it gets, and bring water shoes there was a decent amount of glass.

More elaborate State Park campground

The lake is the center of activity. We saw lots of wildlife (check bird migration schedules!). It’s a huge campground with cabins and lots to do in the park and nearby. Reserve a site if you have your heart set on staying here. It’s all very clean and well-kept. The individual sites are pretty open and some are right on the water. They also have nice cabins you can rent all year.

Beech Fork

This is a nice big place to camp. About one third of the spots are lake front and the fishing is awesome. There's also a swimming pool, hiking, horse shoes and boat rental. Nice clean bathrooms and some of the campsites have internet available!!
