    Beautiful river access tent sites

    Beautiful river access directly from tent site! Lots of amenities from hot tubs, fishing pond and a heated pool. Staff was friendly and site was well maintained. Bathrooms were clean. Only complaint is that tent sites are really close together.

    Big Meadows Campground — Shenandoah National Park

    Beautiful views & cozy cabins!

    Tons of great hiking trails many with views of beautiful waterfalls. We took our lab and she enjoyed the trails as much as we did! One night we camped out at Big Meadows campground and got to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The next two nights we stayed in an awesome dog friendly cabin at the Big Meadows Lodge. They were so accommodating for our furry friend. We were given a cabin with its our screened in porch just for her to enjoy. (Not many cabins have this feature) They even gave her a cute trail dog bandana which she wore with pride on our hikes. At night there was a nice little spot close to the campsite to hike up and see the beautiful expanse of stars. The best stars I’ve ever seen! Another exciting feature were all the wildlife. We saw so many chipmunks, deer and even a few snakes. The coolest part was seeing some black bears in the trees ! Awesome to see and we also felt very safe for park rangers were very attentive to keeping everyone at safe distances. Totally recommend these gem in VA!

    Cute Bunnys Bad wifi

    Overall this could be a great park. Everything needs a new coat of paint. And the wifi is just not working then need a new router. Hot tubs were great. Some sites need to be more level I had to lower my nose all the way down and still not level.

    Great stay!

    Friendly staff got us in on a very busy weekend! We had a great site on the river. Spaces were small but big enough for all our equipment. They had an awesome pool that was heated, hot tubs, mini golf and good playgrounds. My kids were in heaven. Would recommend to others and stay again if we were in the area.

    Oh bunnies!!

    This was a cool campground for families, not really our cup of tea. They had a lot of activities planned for the weekend and the resort has an arcade, a stock pond, mini golf, pool, hot tubs, tubing, and a waterfall. Enough to keep the whole family busy. Loved seeing all the free roaming rabbits and was unique to this campground. The layout of the campground leaves some spots to be very undesirable as they are used by campers to cut through at all hours to the amenities.

    Shenandoah Valley Campground

    Nice grounds, tight spaces, wifi doesn’t work, no cell service for Verizon

    Pros- the grounds are very nice, lots of trees, level sites, some grass, lots of activities for the kids. Tent sites by the river, a pool, hot tubs, store, cafe with limited items. Laundry facility. Wild but tame bunnies are everywhere. 

    Cons - we were there in October and they close on 10/31 for the season so we got the feeling they weren’t that into it anymore. Bathrooms and showers were disgusting. Very dirty with what appeared to be mold around the upper section of the shower. Store not well stocked. Hot tub room had a mildew odor, same with the bathrooms. Laundry was dirty, machines not clean. No wifi, no cable and cell service is limited - definitely not good for Verizon. There were no fewer than half a dozen people walking around with their phones held high trying to get a signal and all seemed to congregate in  front of our trailer so we were able to hear their conversations. We thought the cable issue might have been on our end but after taking to other campers we found out they were having the same problem. Spaces are tight.

    Bonus - Halloween is a big even in many RV parks and this was no exception. There were a few campers who fixed up a trailer as a haunted house and decorated the outside to the max. We did enjoy our evening walk around the park looking at decorated RVs.

    Although we could see the potential the park, we wouldn’t stay again.

    When it was the KOA, it was great....now, meh

    We used to love this place.  I'm not a huge endorser of conglomerates, however this is an instant that I wish the people that own this campground would take a page out of their book.  I'd almost swear they added more sites.  We were in a teardrop camper and we were practically on top of our neighbors.  The pluses here are there is a falls that you can walk to and wade out to.  Always fun!  You can rent an inner tube and float down the river.  There are cute bunnies on the property.  The minuses-we found the bathhouses not so great, the pool when we were there wasn't in good shape and after that, we didn't even bother with the hot tubs.  There is a lot to do in the area, but having said that, it's not worth the money for another visit.  It's sad because we really loved this place in the 90's.  Luckily, lots of breweries, wineries, food and neat bars around to visit!

    Canaan Valley Resort State Park Campground

    Beautiful and convenient

    Beautiful campground, with full hookups and bath house. There are several beautiful hikes to take in the park. A restaurant with a view and gift shop with local  products. The Seasons Cafe has great food for breakfast & lunch. The outside pool is large and heated. There is an inside pool and hot tub, small fee for camping guest. There is a scenic chair lift you can ride to the top of the ski mountain and hike back down to the bottom. There are several activities at the resort, something for everyone. 

    From Canaan Valley Resort State Park there are soooo many places to visit. Bear Rock and Dolly Sods for beautiful views and delicious berry picking (take empty clean milk jugs for easy picking buckets).  Also great hiking here. Take a backpack of snacks, water and a cooler for lunch. 

    Spruce Knob is the highest peak in the state of WV. You can drive and take a short hike around the top or hike all the way.

    There are waterfalls in many areas around Canaan. Blackwater falls, Douglas falls, Elakala falls is the 4 falls of Shays Run, Falls of Seneca, Red falls, the list goes on. Our favorite was Elakala, a great hike down blackwater canyon and view of some beautiful falls.

    Seneca Rock is a long but worth it hike. We took a lunch and lots of water. There is an adventure company we highly recommend, NROCK. We did a canopy zip-line tour with them. Very fun, not super high and very professional. 

    Go into the town of Davis and there is a local brewery and some great food. Sirianni's has the best pizza, pasta and salads you will ever find. Highland market has local raised foods. Take a cooler so you have something to keep your food cool while stopping to eat at one of the restaurants. There is an ice cream shop that is not to be missed!

    I can't even tell you all you can do, just plan your trip and google activities for the area.

    Kumbrabow State Forest

    Hidden Gem--Unplug and Unwind

    This was my first visit to Kumbrabow State Forest, but not my last!
       
         Kumbrabow State Forest offers lots of great trails, rustic cabins, and a primitive campground. This historic recreation area, carved into this 9,500-acre forest by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930’s, is a wonderful place to unplug and unwind. It’s located at 3,000 feet above sea level on the western edge of the Allegheny Highlands, so it’s the highest state forest in West Virginia.
         I stayed in space #7, located next to Mill Creek, where I enjoyed the relaxing sound of this gurgling stream all night long. Each camping spot has a picnic table, fire ring and lantern holder. There are pit toilets and a pump for fresh spring water in the campground. Two-miles down the road, there’s a bathhouse next to the Kumbrabow forest headquarters.
         If you hike the 2-mile Potato Hole Trail, you'll arrive at the top of Rich Mountain and an overlook with a fantastic view. You can also park at the Kumbrabow gun range and hike the longer, but less strenuous, Rich Mountain Fire Trail which intersects with the Potato Hole Trail.
         Make sure you check out Mills Creek Falls and admire the really cool CCC-built rustic cabins. The cabins don’t have water or electricity, but offer gas lights, gas refrigerator, fully-equipped kitchen, wood fireplace, and outside grill and firepit. My 99-year old mom and her siblings stayed here for their "sister parties" years ago and loved the cabins at Kumbrabow.
         I suggest a side trip to the Highland Scenic Highway where you can admire the Falls of Hills Creek, Cranberry Glades, and colorful foliage during the fall season.

    Had one of the best times

    We stayed in a cabin this time. One of the pioneer cabins. Let me say it was awesome, wood stove, gas light, outhouse and had to get your own water. The cabin was well put together and the staff has you set up to enjoy your stay with everything from soap to cut wood. There was a lake a minute walk from our cabin and greenbrier was close. I would recommend this to anyone.

    Doyles River Cabin

    Primitive and Lovely

    Short hike from the parking area (MP 81 from Skyline Drive) to get to the cabin. Less than a half mile. I recommend a hike to down to the waterfalls during the visit!

    Cabin is a large open room w/two sets of bunk beds and a dining space. Cool cabin, built in 1936. There’s a wood stove for heat and cooking, and an outdoor fireplace. Some pots and pans and other necessities are in the cabin. No water or electricity, so def pack in your own. There’s also a spring nearby. There’s a pit toilet a short distance from the cabin, just bring your own TP!

    If you’re a member of the PATC, you shouldn’t have a hard time booking and the rate is reasonable! Definitely make a reservation.

    Pocosin Cabin

    Easy access cabin with gorgeous views

    This is one of the cabins operated by the Potomac Appalachian Trail Club (PATC). This one is located in Shenandoah National Park, around milepost 59, so you will need to pay the entrance fee to SNP if you do not have an annual pass, and it is a primitive cabin, so there is no water or electric, and all trash must be packed out.

    This cabin is very easy to access--park at the entrance to the fire road off Skyline Drive, and it is about a .2 mile hike, crossing the AT along the way.

    The cabin has a covered porch with a picnic table and outdoor fireplace, and ample firewood available under the agreement that guests replenish the firewood that they use. There is a sawhorse and wood-splitters available for this. Inside the cabin are three sets of bunk beds, each double wide.

    Amenities include:

    Mattress pads for each bed, wool army blankets, interior wood-burning stove, interior picnic-table, pots and pans of varying sizes (including a cast iron skillet), flatware, glassware, ceramic bowls, plates, and mugs, and a coffee percolator.

    Mice are very common here. There is a box inside the cabin to lock food in at night to keep mice out--we could hear them at night while we were there. There is a privy located a few yards away from the cabin, and a spring several yards beyond the privy where water can be obtained, though it will need to be purified.

    This cabin has great views, and is a great place for people of all ages, including small children--we came here the first time for our son's 1st birthday. However the AT runs directly behind the cabin. Even in April we already saw several hikers, some stopping at the spring, others who were obviously aware of the cabin as a potential place to stop and rest. We also came in November and did not see many other hikers, and even with the very cold temperatures still stayed fairly warm inside the cabin overnight thanks to the wood-burning stove.

    beautiful location off the blue ridge

    beautiful location, nice campground. not a lot of woods but lots to do including jumping pillows, paddle boats, swimming. the cabins are spacious and nice though you have to bring your own linens. the price is expensive during peak season and cabins are always expensive.

    Close to Skydiving!

    Have stayed here twice when skydiving at Skydive Shenandoah. I will say the tent sites aren’t super desirable. Not private and gravel. The cabins though - perfect for one or two people, has a fire ring. Both times we had a nice stay, both times in a cabin. Lots of antiquing and flea marketing in the area.

    Corbin Cabin

    Cozy Night.

    Stopped at Corbin cabin on a longer backpacking trip. Great little cabin with some more luxurious camping facilities than we were used to (Stayed across the river at a more primitive spot as well). Good spot for families and we had a great time . Need to book in advance to make sure you can book it. Bears and wildlife is expected by the river.

    Lewis Mountain Campground — Shenandoah National Park

    Quiet and peaceful

    We stayed in one of the cabins at Lewis Mountain, which had a queen size bed and bathroom with a small shower. Towels, soap and shampoo are provided. Each cabin has a sheltered area and fire pit for cooking and eating. The folks in the camp store were very friendly and went out of their way to provide hospitality. A couple of trails run right by the campground.

    Abrams Creek Campground and Retreat Center

    Scenic and secluded

    Tented a cabin for two nights to hide from bad weather. Cabin had electric service, a microwave, electric heater, refrigerator and lights. The campground had no other guests during our stay.

    The campground is long and narrow bordering on Abrams Creek. We took daily walks to the end of the campground and enjoyed the scenic views.

    The campsite has port-a-potties for each cabin and for groups of campsites. Water was clean and had no oder.

    The only concern noted was the bath house. It was poorly lighted and made of what looked like left over materials.

    The gentleman that checked us in was a wealth of knowledge. He told us all about the campground and told us they offer an outdoor shower. Their were two outdoor shower stalls which were shower curtains next to the shower house.

    Seneca State Forest

    65ft Up in the Sky

    We booked the Thorny Mountain Fire Tower two months in advance, it is pretty popular, so if you want to stay there you will have to book it in advance. It is $75 a night, which is pricey, but is well worth it.

    To get to the fire tower you will want to take the Loop Road, it is gravel and there are pot holes on the edges of the road so you will want to be careful of those. The fire tower is secluded, so you will not have to worry about neighbors or noise while staying there. At the base of the tower there is a fire pit, picnic table, and a pit toilet. The toilet is part of a small shed that has already split wood on the other side for you to use. But no electrical hookups at the base or in the tower. They do have a shower house behind the rangers station, it is very nice and clean. The website says the tower can house up to four people, however, there are only two cots, so you will want to bring sleeping mats if you plan on having more than two people. The 360 degree views are breathtaking. One night we had two different storm systems blow through the mountains and the lightning show was amazing to watch. You will definitely want to watch a sunrise as well, absolutely stunning.

    Seneca State Forest is one of the oldest forest in West Virginia, it has a small pond/lake you can fish at and even take small boats onto. They have plenty of hiking trails, which also allow mountain biking on most. They have cabins on the lake for rent as well and have plenty of tent camping spots.

    Sun Retreats Shenandoah Valley

    Family/group/RV centric campground

    We used this in the offseason as is was one of the only ones in the area that stays open for most of the year. This is not a primitive/secluded campground if you are looking to get away and spend some time in nature. It would make a great group/family glamping campsite as is has all of the amenities, including playgrounds, a pond with a "beach" and golf cart rentals to get around.
