Less than 15 miles from Morgantown, West Virginia, you will find a stunning 12,747-acre protected forest. Coopers Rock State Forest is home to a vibrant stretch of trails and forest that share a border with the canyons of the Cheat River, which is notorious with white water rafters. Besides being a scenic area to pitch a tent, Coopers Rock actually offers a multitude of options for recreation. This includes picnicking, fishing, hiking, hunting, camping, and rock climbing. Visitors who want to use the park for hunting or fishing are asked to obtain the proper licensing prior to arriving. The extra step is worth it though, as the park features a glistening six-acre pond that’s brimming with fresh trout that’s located on the northern side of the forest. Coopers Rock State Forest has been, and continues to be a hugely popular destination with rock climbing enthusiasts. It’s considered one of the best areas for bouldering in the eastern U.S., and there are at least 5 popular climbing sites that are easy to find within the park. Those destinations are Roof Rocks, Upper Rock City, Sunset Wall, Roadside Rocks, and Tilted Tree. If you enjoy winter sports, you’ll be pleased to find that Coopers Rock is also known for its ski terrain in the winter. Be careful, however, as the trails here are known to be best suited for intermediate to experienced skiiers. For those considering trying them out, frequent visitors suggest waiting until the snow is densely packed on, at least half a foot, to avoid injury on the many rocks, branches and roots on the trails below the snow. Breathtaking views atop sky-high cliffs make camping at the park almost a given for visitors. The park offers two different campgrounds, each offering the options of comforts like water and electricity hook-ups, or more traditional tent camping. All accommodations here are first come first serve. McCollum Campground serves as the main camping area and accommodates a total of 25 campsites, each equipped with electrical and water hook-ups, a bathhouse and even wireless internet. Pets are welcome visitors as long as they remain on a leash or crate at all times.

Family camping trip and we tagged along in our tent. We’ve been priced out of our area so pleased to find this hidden gem. A small, comfortable, family run campground that has enough amenities to keep the littles entertained and adults relaxing. We stayed in the tent area, which we had all to ourselves. Our site was on the river and able to pull our motorcycles right up. I do think if the tent area is full it will feel crowded. There’s a small bathroom attached to back of camp store nearby. Then the larger bathhouse down the way. The RV sites were flat, clean, in an open area. We will, for sure, be back.

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.

A nice campground in a beautiful area. Currently, McCollum has 25 campsites, but a new section is under construction. The sites are relatively level for such a hilly area, but we did need to do a little extra positioning of our camper. Site 22 is a pull through site and feels extra large compared to others. No water at this site but is does have 30 and 15 amp service.
There is a small camp store with the basics and a larger outpost just down the road where many of the trail heads are located. There is a bit of a Wi-Fi signal but is only accessible when you're at the camp store.
Fantastic hiking in the area! Lots of interesting scenery and rock formations to explore.
Bath house was clean and the water was hot.
Definitely recommend staying here.

I came back for the second time in as many months. The owner reached out on the day I was arriving to let me know she was heading out for the weekend and ask if I needed any firework delivered before she left.
Campground was quiet just like last time. Really only saw one other person the entire weekend.
Traveler
That's the best way to describe this park. 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.
However, the plus is that there are lots of little amentities, a coffee pavilion, wood to buy, portapots, and an incredibly kind "staff." I'm mobility impaired and it was just my dog and I. The guys were super helpful bringing the wheelbarrow of wood to me, which would have been difficult for me.
The river is beautiful, but you do have to go down a bit of an incline to get there. On the beach there are rafts, paddleboats, chairs, and across the river there is a ladder to climb up on the rocks.
The property was clean and quiet other than the occasional diesel truck going down the road.
TravelerWe just got back from a few days at Middle ridge campground and it is now one of my favorite campgrounds. The owners are attentive, stopping by each day to check on us and see if we needed anything. The pool is well maintained, as are the restrooms. We were at site 14 which is right across from the pool. The site was a great size and well laid out.
I camp a few times a month, different places each time, and this is one of a few that I will return to.

If your looking for cleanliness find another campground. The bathrooms and Showers in the campground and the beach house are Gross all the time. The swim area leaves a brown residual stain in your swimwear and on your person. A simple shower won't get the stuff off your skin you will have to scrub multiple times to get clean. Forget getting a peaceful night's sleep because you won't due to dogs barking and the amount of traffic traveling through the area or by the campground. The Lack of rangers presence and lack of cleanliness has made this place go from a nice place to spend time to a absolute last resort when it comes to camping for my family.
TravelerThe campground offers full hook ups, a nice clean pool & facilities. Spacious campsites & the owners are super sweet. Will camp there again!

We love this park! We have camped and stayed in a camper cabin. We love camping in the trees that provide some privacy. At night time, the owls hoot away. The bathhouses are pretty good, not the best but are always clean. I like that the campground is dog friendly, but didn’t realize the park is not. The waterfall trails are beautiful and a sight to explore. Definitely recommend this park!

Great location for Cass RR or start or end of the greenbrier river rail trail. Privately owned. Grassy sites, “mostly “ . We camped in our Van. 110/30 amp service at most sites. Many seasonal rental spaces. “Simple “ plywood shower and toilet house. (Mens side not so clean) hot water shower. $30/night with or without electricity. Tight sites, we camped mid week before the Memorial Day holiday.

This establishment does NOT offer tent sites anymore! 5/18/2024. I called to make a reservation and they said they do not do that anymore as of a few years ago.
ScoutGreat campground, roads are a little rough but it is a a very beautiful area and so peaceful.

Had my wedding 2022 at Jennings picnic area and then after that spent the whole weekend away from everyone and everything! Peaceful in September love the area grew up over camping every summer at Jennings but wanted something more secluded for honeymoon. Husbands dad was one of the union workers who helped build Jennings and my dad built multiple tourist attractions around it. Gorgeous landscape and it’s my peace

My family and I liked this campground a lot. We had a camp site that was right against the river with full hookups. This seemed to be a well laid out campground with sites for weekenders in maybe the best location right along the river and the seasonal campers spread out around. The camp store was nice with everything you need, and the staff and owners were friendly as well. We were there for a long weekend and all agreed we would go back.
ScoutCampground was well maintained. Tent pads were great. It rained on us but tent pads were elevated enough that we stayed dry. It is so peaceful and serene there. Hiked the trails to the waterfalls and had a great time. Firewood was cheap. Bathrooms were good and clean.

First time here with great sights and plenty to do. Vast park and trails galore.
ScoutMy husband and I have stayed at Middle Ridge Campground many times since 2005. The campground is family owned and operated by the Drapers, and the family atmosphere can be felt throughout.
We've stayed in a number of the campsites and I can't say I have a favorite. Each has its own landscape and piece of the woods. With picnic tables and fire rings, each site is well-maintained and ready for the next campers. And of course, what's better than a campfire with s'mores? :)
From hiking and swimming, to fishing and birdwatching, the campground has something for everyone big and small, young and old. It is a true haven for outdoor/nature enthusiasts.
If you enjoy photography, don't forget to bring your camera. I spent a weekend in the early spring one year after a rain taking lots of photos of all the different types of mushrooms that sprang up. I also saw my first pair of pileated woodpeckers here in the woods and have photos of a spotted fawn that I treasure.
If you love being in the woods where the occasional deer or flock of turkeys walks by (if you're quiet), book your next camping trip at Middle Ridge Campground. It is a hidden gem!
ScoutWe have spent a lot of time at Middle Ridge and loved it. Peaceful and accommodating. Wonderful walk to the pond and the property around is beautiful. The owners are very helpful since we began our camping experience with them. Highly recommend this campground.
ScoutWe have travelled many times to WV and usually include the Middle Ridge Campground for a few nights or more. It is not near a main highway unless you call Route 50 through Romney a main highway. It is west of town up a curved mountain road. It is on the top area of "Middle Ridge" mountain.
The views are fantastic as you drive into the campground. once you check in at the office, the owners will direct you to your campsite. I have seen most types of rigs, from to tents to 5th wheel and numerous Class A, B and C campers. The place is laid back, quiet and somewhat remote. The greatest place to "get away from it all".
For activities, in summer, a lovely well maintained pool, picnic areas, hiking and biking. Even when they are full, you don't feel crowded. The owners, Shelly and Terry are some of the nicest people you will ever meet.
ScoutMy time here at Middle Ridge has been so great. It’s peaceful and has lots of hiking trails! They are a dog friendly campground and the owners are so kind. Thank you for providing a safe, quiet space to camp. ❤️🥰
ScoutAn awesome go to campground for the family. We've been going for years. Everyone loves it - there is something for everyone from hiking, swimming, outdoor games, fishing, watching the donkeys or just enjoying the fire pit in the evenings. The views are spectacular! PS They have sites for your trailer, tent and even a cabin to rent. The bathhouse is clean too (a big plus)...
GuideBeautiful campground with well spaced sites. Only electric hookup but they look like they are expanding the RV camping area and those newer sites will have water as well. Can’t beat this park for beautiful trails and overlooks.
Beware Site 25! Very hard to get into! My husband is a professional B-double truck driver and getting our 28ft trailer on there got him sweating a bit!
TravelerHiking is amazing at New Germany. Sites are well spaced and restrooms are clean everyday. Nice events for visitors by park rangers and volunteers.

Best get away you could get! Well worth the stay!
LegendJake from the Dyrt here! The Oasis at Bear Run Farm has a great selection of sites, for any type of camper, although one of the best might be the glamping cabin right on the blue pond. Check them out and share some pictures from your stay!
GuideWe had a wonderful time camping here. It was so quiet and had great access to the trails near the overlook.
We were at site 5 and it was great. Not as secluded as sights like 22-25 but we had a trail that lead right to the bathroom. Site 5 if definitely the closest to the bathroom if you need that.
Most of the sights had a tent pad to set up on. They all had fire rings with a grate for cooking. The bathrooms were extremely clean!
GuideIt was a quick stop over on way home , very nice owner , had full hookups very peaceful highly recommend!
