At 4,863 feet above sea level, Spruce Knob is West Virginia's highest peak. From this rugged alpine peak, you can view grassy openings and pastures or look down on forested ridges as far as the eye can see. The vegetation here has adapted to a harsh environment. One-sided red spruce deformed by constant exposure to strong westerly winds cling to the high rocky ridges. Blueberry and huckleberry plants hug the ground. Spruce Knob Tower - A stone and steel observation tower sits atop the Knob, providing visitors with a vantage point from which to enjoy a 360 degree view. The half-mile Whispering Spruce Trail circles the knob and provides panoramic views. Interpretive signs along the gentle, graveled trail describe the high country vegetation, geology and animal life. Vault toilets, picnic tables, grills and vehicle parking complete the facilities available at the tower.
This recreation area is part of Tygart Lake

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.
$25 - $35 / night
Sites are very large. Water pressure was good. Bath house was clean. The grounds were very clean and well kept. Staff was friendly. Quiet and peaceful. Pet friendly. Dump station on grounds and easy access.
Close to Cheat Lake and restaurants in Morgantown.
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!
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.
Campsites are just the right size. Very level and nicely done. Sites have electric hookup a picnic table and a fire ring. Wood is available for purchase at the office when you come In. Bathhouse is located in the center of the campsites
Campground 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.
Beautiful 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!
Right on the River. Perfect for floating. Full hook up sites were amazing. Definitely want to come back.
Fourth visit in three years. It keeps getting better!
We liked this campground we stayed an extra night. We are in a camper van so hiking trails accessible by foot from the campground is a plus for us so we don’t have to pack up each time we venture out. The Black Water Falls were also within walking distance and beautiful to see.
This campground is very well maintained. Bathrooms and showers are very clean. Sites are spacious and well placed.
Our first visit to Five River Campground was great! The owners are amazing and so helpful. They go out of their way to make sure you have a wonderful time. The campground is clean and well maintained. We will definitely be visiting again!
We have been coming here for the past 5+ years, owners go out of their way to make your camping experience an enjoyable time for you and your family , campgrounds are neat , clean and well maintained . Would Highly Recommend
Awesome place to camp, kayak, and sight see. Owners are some of the nicest you’ll ever meet.
We have been coming here for like 6/7 years now . Started out with tents , now campers . The owners are very nice people . Will help you out when or if you need it .
We really enjoyed our stay at 5 Rivers Campground. It is a spacious campground that the owners have maintained well. Bathrooms and laundry are clean and well maintained. Our site was very level and there was plenty of room between sites. Water, sewer and electric all worked well. We even had cable TV and excellent WIFI. Campground is in a beautiful setting and close to a number of state parks with hiking trails and beautiful scenery. The park was very quiet and peaceful which made our stay very relaxing. The owners are very nice and went out of their way to make sure that you had everything you need
The campground is beautiful - Mountain View on one side, river view on the other. Very well maintained and clean. Grass lots with stone pads for camper. Hookups are easy. Staff is very friendly. Sites along the river look amazing (missed out on one myself though). Lots of open space for kids to play. Good space for walking and biking. Bike trail very close.
We have stayed at this campground for several years and are already booked for next year. The owners go above and beyond to make your stay the best. Everything is well maintained and upgraded. Tons of room for kids to play! Great camp store and the weekend ice cream is a family favorite!
Tis campground is absolutely amazing!! Staff are exceptional, very informative if you're traveling and don't know the area well they can tell you all the great places to hike and eat. They come check on you once you've been settled in to see if there's anything else you need, if you do need help they are more than willing and always easy to find around the property. The property itself is beautiful, easy river access, and very well maintained! I can't wait to come back!!
We camped down by the river, one of the best sites and campgrounds we have ever stayed in. Owners are very helpful and friendly. They go above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience. Already booked for next year.
Owner of campground is very personable and friendly. Grounds are well maintained and taken care of. Friendly town with lots to do.
We 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!
Booked a cabin for thanksgiving and it was almost entirely empty but for the other couple cabins. Snow on the ground and the Canton Falls hike was super busy. The outdoor sink has been removed (freeze prep I imagine) which was the only trouble we had. Our first cabin experience was otherwise excellent. So many stars were visible on clear nights. Weekend hunting could be heard every morning. If we needed a supply the camp store was open 8-4 with minor provisions but small towns were about 25 minutes away. Not super far from Deep Creek so we may try again in warmer weather.
I stayed here for two nights in October of 2021. Even mid-week the campground was crowded. However, even without reservations, I got a very good campsite. The parking spots are generally level and the sites all have tables and fire rings. I did not use electric or water.
The bathrooms/showers are showing some age but they are well maintained and clean.
One of the things that gave me a lot of fun was watching the white tail deer stroll through the campsites at sunset! And, Blackwater Falls are a short drive or a long walk away.
It was an incredible experience. It was quiet and serene. There was a shop where you could purchase wood and supplies. There was a bathroom close by with running water and showers. It was beautiful and very close to the lake.
There was a fire place and a picnic table and an area to park your car. It was walking distance to the beautiful overlook and a great price for what you get.
