Best RV Parks & Resorts near Davis, WV

Several RV parks surround Davis, West Virginia, offering varied options for motorhome travelers exploring the Monongahela National Forest region. Five River Campground in Parsons provides year-round full hookup sites with 50 amp service, level gravel pads, and excellent WiFi connectivity. Smoke Hole Caverns and Log Cabin/RV Resort features 10 big-rig friendly riverfront sites with full hookups, though spaces are positioned close together with limited privacy. Just Plane Adventures in Medley accommodates larger RVs with full hookup sites including water, electric, and sewer connections. Brooklyn Heights Riverfront Campground offers 30 sites with 30 amp electric and water hookups. As one RVer noted about Five River, "The electric, sewer, and water hookups work well, and the RV sites are fairly level."

Navigation to some mountain RV parks requires careful planning due to narrow, winding roads with significant elevation changes. Cell service varies dramatically throughout the region, with Five River Campground providing reliable coverage while Smoke Hole Caverns has virtually none. Sanitary dump stations are available at most parks, though their locations sometimes create traffic flow challenges. Double G Campground and Bumble Bee RV Park operate seasonally (May through October), while Riverside Cabins and RV Park remains open year-round. Pet policies differ between locations - most welcome pets but Smoke Hole Caverns does not allow them. During peak fall foliage season, advance reservations become essential as the limited number of RV sites with hookups fill quickly. Winter camping options are restricted to parks with plowed access roads and freeze-protected water systems.

    Double G Campground

    Quiet and Friendly Campground

    Decent size RV park with mostly seasonal and full time residents. They are still happy to have short term campers. Nice full hook up sites and cable TV. Staff was very friendly. Firewood is abundant, good quality, and cheap. Not a whole lot on the way of amenities, but it’s a nice facility. Location is great, very close to the lake and the ski resort. If you want to camp while at the lake this is a great choice.

    New Germany State Park Campground

    Gorgeous park; truly "unplugged" experience

    Site was very large and private, surrounded by beautiful forest. Plenty of room for our pup, TV, pop-up gazebo, and gear. Each site had a fire ring with grill grate, and a nice, large, composite picnic table. We were right in front of the bath house, which was convenient, but the light was pretty bright at night. We were also the closest site to the loop entrance, so we could hear some traffic along the main park road. Didn’t bother us too much, but I imagine it would have been pretty noisy if we’d been there during peak summer season. Camping loop overall was nice and quiet, though; we had two neighbors while we were there, and barely saw nor heard anything from either of them.

    Simply put, this park is absolutely gorgeous. Easily the most beautiful MD State Park we’ve visited. Everything, from the forest, to trails, to lake, to Meadow Mountain, is a camper/outdoor enthusiast’s dream. The fall foliage made everything even more beautiful. Apparently, the park is very popular amongst cross-country skiers in the winter, especially since they have full-service cabins and a warming hut by the lake. I’m not into cold weather at all, but I imagine I would love to spend a day by the lake in the summer time. Said lake area also has a concession stand, boat rentals, swimming beach, rec hall, and nature center, but these were all closed since we were there out of season.

    Bath house in our loop was old and small, but kept very clean. I never used the shower, as it was too cold, but it looked adequate. LOTS of spiders, which don’t really bother me, but definitely a nightmare for arachnophobes.

    We drove through the two other, non-pet-friendly loops, which were also beautiful. Sites were spacious and private, just like in our loop, but with the addition of tall pines. Saw mostly tent campers, and a few small TTs. The roads were very narrow, with a decent incline, so not big-rig friendly.

    Note that there is very little to no cell phone reception in the park, so combined with the lack of hookups, this is definitely an unplugged, “connect with nature” type of camping experience.

    Overall, I absolutely loved this park, and can definitely see why it’s referred to as Maryland’s “hidden gem.” The only negative was the lack of hookups, as it got pretty cold at night, and our battery was unable to sustain the needs of our heater. It would have been fine if it had been just me and my husband, but I think it was just too cold for our small kids, especially with the wind and rain we encountered. I would love to return in the summer though, especially since the area doesn’t experience the same type of extreme humidity as the more central and eastern parts of Maryland. Highly recommended!

    Glade Farms Campground

    Quiet place to rest

    We headed to ride the trails at big bear lake camplands and booked here considering a recent outbreak of covid at the lake. The on call staff met us at the gated community and helped us get situated on a shaded lot. Very nice and quiet with mostly seasonal or permanent snowbirds. Small pond/lake on the property and plenty of shade. The lot was a challenge to be centered and level which led to us exiting our camper downhill. The water access was in ground and I cant imagine a camping couple that's well beyond retirement finding that convenient but it didn't impact us. Pet friendly and large lots. Bathhouse was closed due to covid. No firewood at this campground to purchase but fire ring provided and picnic tables.

    Outflow Camping

    Quiet campground

    This is a lovely army corps of engineers campground. The sites are gravel and level. Most only have 30 amp electric hookup but water can be filled at the “gatehouse” (for lack of better description). There are 3-4 full hookup and a few 50 amp. It is well-maintained— lawns mowed, bathrooms cleaned, sites tidy. Bath house isn’t modern but showers are hot and have great pressure. Campground filled up on the weekend. The sites are a bit close to each other and are mostly sunny but it was quiet anyway. Lots of people fishing on the river—access right from the campground. Great Allegheny Passage trail also accessed from the campground. Boating on the lake too.

    Middle Ridge Campground

    Peaceful retreat in the woods on the mountain

    Nice full hook-up sites in spacious level sites in the woods. Great place to get away. Great value with a gracious host and hostess. Delivered wood to our site by the time I disconnected. The donkeys were fun to see. The town of Romney nearby has everything you might need. Highly recommend the small farmer markets with fresh fruit and veggies. Road to access the campground was good with some tight turns up the hill the last couple of miles. The campground itself is gravel roads that were pretty tight gettin in and out of and fairly steep with trees on all sides. Made it in and out no issue taking it slow, but not sure I would try anything longer than about 36' fifth wheel or 34' travel trailer. Water pressure was just a bit weak and used our water tank and pump during our stay. Best we could get for water pressure out of the hose was 25-20 psi. No issues with power or sewer. Pool looked nice and clean, but we did not get a chance to use it. Hike down to the ponds is pretty steep. Would go back again if in the area. Starlink was sketchy at best, Verizon had one bar and slightly usable, ATT was best with a couple of bars and ok speeds.

    Red Creek Campground

    Far from the hectic pace!

    Red Creek Campground is positioned a decent drive down gravel National Forest roads, so it does not see the amount of traffic that easier, closer campgrounds get.      https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/mnf/recreation/natureviewing/recarea/?recid=7003&actid=63

    With a season of Mid-April through the beginning of December, be assured that weather is always a factor. Family has been thwarted at Thanksgiving by unpassable snow without a 4x4. Rain is almost certain, as the varied elevation nearly creates its own weather patterns.  So my first recommendation is to always add rain gear and cold weather garments for insurance.

    We ordinarily visit during the month of August and being a "fly by the seat of my pants" type of roaming tent camper...I have arrived to see Red Creek Campground full...as these sites are non-reservable. 

    Keep in mind, Red Creek Campground is "primitive"...no modern facilities, no showers, no electric...and the only running water accessible, is a small spring pipe (that I highly recommend filtering before use even though it does not post that).

    Sites on the outer portion of the loop are fairly concealed from one another by trees and undergrowth...the inner loop sites are a little more exposed.  Gravel parking at sites and each site offers a picnic table a fire ring and lantern post. All sites are a short distance to the two individual unisex pit lantrines in the center of the campground.

    With no ambient light, the night skies are amazing...though cloud cover always seem to plague my visits at night. Though one evening we drove down toward Bear Rocks and laid in an open field to stargaze one evening to enjoy a wonderful light show from shooting stars. We were so quiet, several deer passed between us within arms reach...a little disconcerting but we survived.

    Trails are abundant and some leave directly from the campground deeper into the Wilderness Area. Choose footwear wisely, as the trails are strewn with sharp rocks (on certain trails), various stream and river crossings, shoe-swallowing mud bogs along with the regular ol' dirt trail.  Bring a trail map, water...and/or a water filter...and raingear.

    Nearby Bear Rocks is a fun scamper for "kids" of all ages and the views eastward share WV and Virginia mountain ranges.

    We were thrilled to visit when "Bird Banding" is taking place and enjoyed searching for migrating birds caught in the netting on the east side of the road opposite the campground.

    For a peaceful, relaxing camping experience that offers great hiking, and some of the most amazing flora and fauna...its a family favorite!

    Coopers Rock State Forest

    Must See Sunsets

    This is the largest state forest in West Virginia, it has a total of 25 sites that vary in their privacy. Each site has electrical hookups, picnic tables, fire grates, and utility post. The sites in the middle of the loop lack privacy that the outer loop sites have. There is one bath house that has hot showers, flush toilets, water spigots, and now WIFI. Pets are allowed but must be kept on a leash. There are gravel pull-ins for the sites, there are a couple of pull through sites for RVs.

    The campground gets busy during the fall because it is so close to Morgantown and Mountaineer games. There are lots of hiking trails, coopers rock is definitely a must to see during sunset. Ravens rock is also a beautiful look out trail. Rock climbers have a lot of rock outcroppings on short trails for climbers to utilize. Fishing, biking, and hunting are also popular activities that can be done here.

    Canaan Valley Resort State Park Campground

    Central location for exploring the outdoors

    Canaan Valley has 3 loops of sites with hookups as well as a few primitive tent sites. There’s a centrally located bath house with flush toilets and hot showers. Many of the sites are pull-through with parking parallel to the loop road. I was on the last loop in a pull-through site and the main campsite area with picnic table and fire ring were several steps below the parking pad. I was here in April. When I made my reservations, I could only find a site for Friday night, so I went ahead and reserved it, but kept checking back. A few days prior to my arrival, a different site opened for the entire weekend. I couldn’t switch, but I went ahead and reserved the Saturday night at the newly open and then reached out via email to the resort. They were able to change my Friday night reservation to the same site so that I would not have to relocate in the middle of my stay. 

    The Canaan Valley area is beautiful and is one of West Virginia’s State Resorts, offering far more than just a campground. Many of the facilities were not yet open fully, but the chairlift to the summit at the ski area was open on weekends. There are a number of nearby parks and forests worth exploring: Blackwater Falls, Dolly Sods Wilderness, Smoke Hole Canyon, Spruce Knob and Seneca Rocks are all within~1 hour drive. You can also stay put at the resort and hike, bike, golf(including mini-golf), swim, geocache, or stargaze. There’s a large open field with a play area near the campground. On of the one clear night I was there, the sky was brilliant. 

    The only downside was that there was an event of some sort taking place the morning I left and the racket from the loudspeaker carried over to the campground. I picked up some ice cream at the Purple Fiddle in Thomas, WV on my way to the campground. This place also offers live music. There is an assortment of restaurants in Thomas and Davis.

    Robert W. Craig - Jennings Randolph Lake

    Great Tenting, Little Busy

    8/14/2025

    USACE-managed campground with hosts who are on-site all season. Nice sites (easy staking) with picnic tables and fire pits, plus a camp store for firewood and other supplies (got there too late to check it out though). A little crowded with what seemed like folks who stay there for a hefty chunk of the season, and the sites are pretty close together, but there weren't any issues with rowdy folks - it seems like the hosts keep things in order/enforce quiet hours if necessary. 

    Drinking water right next to the site (37) as well as a trail to a restroom - I think there's a shower on the other loop/section. 

    $22 for a basic (non-electric) tent site.


Guide to Davis

RV parks near Davis, West Virginia provide access to high-elevation mountain terrain ranging from 2,500 to 4,800 feet in the Monongahela National Forest region. Winter camping options become limited after October when many sites close for the season. Cell service varies dramatically throughout mountain valleys, with connectivity generally better at lower elevations closer to towns.

What to do

Trout fishing access: Five River Campground offers direct river access for anglers. "The river is fantastic and holds trout and smallmouth for those that like to fish," notes camper T N T. Most fishing spots are within walking distance of campsites.

Stargazing opportunities: The lack of light pollution creates exceptional night sky viewing conditions. "Dark sky and an open field for stargazing," mentions Jean C. about Smoke Hole Caverns and Log Cabin/RV Resort, which provides unobstructed views of constellations.

River recreation: Many campgrounds offer water access for tubing, paddling, and swimming. "We walked up river to the end of the property and were able to tube down to the lower end of the property," shares Jamie R. about Five River Campground. The Shavers Fork river provides gentle currents suitable for beginners.

Hiking trail access: Multiple trailheads within 30 minutes of most campgrounds provide day hiking options. "Chimney Rock is 2 minutes from camp site and Seneca Rock is about 20 minutes away," notes Casey L., highlighting the convenient access to popular trails from Smoke Hole Caverns.

What campers like

Riverfront camping: Brooklyn Heights Riverfront Campground offers primitive sites directly on the water. "On the beach there are rafts, paddleboats, chairs, and across the river there is a ladder to climb up on the rocks," describes Tiel M., noting the added amenities that enhance water access.

Good cell service: Unlike many mountain destinations, Five River Campground maintains reliable connectivity. "The wifi service is the best we have had on the road," reports T N T., while another camper notes, "It is one of the only campgrounds in all of WV where you have cell service...and wifi!"

Helpful campground hosts: Many RV parks near Davis feature attentive owners who assist with campsite selection and setup. "John always made time to stop by and ask us if we needed anything," shares Wanda C. about Five River Campground, while another reviewer mentions owners who are "super attentive, and personal."

Natural camping areas: Rather than manufactured tent pads, many sites preserve the natural environment. "It has the primitive feel, campsites are in the natural woods as opposed to a pristine tent pad. I love how open and natural it feels," explains Tiel M. about Brooklyn Heights Riverfront.

What you should know

Seasonal operations: Several RV parks operate only during warmer months. Seneca Shadows runs from "April 2 to October 25," according to their listing, while Bumble Bee RV Park operates from "May 1 to Oct 31."

Limited privacy at some locations: Site layouts vary significantly between campgrounds. "Site are large and level, but close to one another and open," notes Jean C. about Smoke Hole Caverns, while another camper mentions, "The tent areas were not very private."

Bathroom facilities vary widely: Some campgrounds offer full facilities while others provide minimal options. "Clean bathhouses with endless hot water, laundry, cable and wifi," reports Jamie R., while Brooklyn Heights offers "clean porta johns" according to Tina D.

Mountain access considerations: Driving to some campgrounds requires navigating mountain roads. "About a 2:45 hour drive from Pittsburgh, PA the drive in on a Friday late afternoon helped decompress the pain and heaviness of our current world. So many windy (but safe) country road as we entered the campgrounds," reports Kerrie K.

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly river access: Just Plane Adventures and other sites offer shallow water areas safe for children. "The location is amazingly located right on the Shavers Fork river on a section that was shallow and calm enough for our small children to enjoy it," shares Jamie R.

Local parks supplement campground play areas: "There's a wonderful park nearby that has a walking/biking trail, splash pad, and a large playground," notes Jamie R., describing off-site recreational options within driving distance of several RV parks in Davis, West Virginia.

Bike-friendly campgrounds: Level terrain at some locations makes cycling practical for kids. "It is a pretty level area so riding bicycles around the campground and even into town are doable," mentions Erica M. about Five River Campground.

Wildlife viewing opportunities: "Chipmunks everywhere you look and incredible sunrise birdsong," reports Erica H. about Seneca Shadows, noting the natural encounters that engage children without requiring special equipment.

Tips from RVers

Site leveling expectations: Most RV parks provide reasonably level sites, but preparation helps. "The electric, sewer, and water hookups work well, and the RV sites are fairly level," notes one camper, while another mentions, "The majority of the site is level and grass."

Big rig accommodation: Riverside Cabins and RV Park and several other campgrounds accommodate larger vehicles. "There are a number of campgrounds in the Smoke Hole Canyon/Seneca Rocks area, but most of them are better suited to smaller rigs and tent campers. If you have a class A or are looking for something with full hookups, look no further," advises Jean C.

Supply access: Nearby towns provide essential services for restocking. "Within five minutes a local grocery store," notes Janet C., while another camper mentions, "Grocery store, gas station and a family dollar all within a 5 min drive or walk" from Five River Campground.

Winter RV considerations: Year-round RV parks like Riverside Cabins and RV Park remain open through winter, but require appropriate preparation for freezing temperatures and potential mountain road closures during heavy snow.
