One of the best stays near New River!
This campground provides an off the main road and in the woods experience. Tents have grassy spots and elevated platforms overlooking the area. There are several camper/RV spots along with cabins of various sizes. A calm creek runs through the property and within minutes of the New River National Park visitor center, downtown Fayetteville, and other adventure businesses.

Peaceful By Creek
I loved my experience. I got spot 6 which back right next to a creek. It was really peaceful. The shower facilities were clean though did smell a bit like mildew. There was no signal in the park itself but signal really close by incase of emergency.
Matt R.ScoutRiverside Campground — Watoga State Park
Almost Heaven
Bathrooms clean and spacious enough. Campsites close enough to access what water, trash, and other needs with still allowing for some privacy. The front has laundry, ice, firewood and tends to most needs. Dark skies and deer wandering around make for a peaceful and nice experience overall.

Rifrafters Campground
Homey feel, spotless grounds, and top-notch hospitality!
We had a wonderful stay at Rifrafters! The campground is remarkably clean, well-organized, and has a truly welcoming, homey feel. The dog park is large, open, and was a great spot for our dogs to run around and burn off some energy.What really sets this place apart is the incredible owners. They are as friendly, accessible, and easygoing as they come. They guided us into our spot perfectly on the first attempt, constantly checked in to ensure we were comfortable, and even recommended a great local mechanic when our truck needed service. You can really tell they care about their guests. We will definitely be staying here again next time we're in the area!

Nice Place
Very low key place. Self check-in. Bath house is old but clean, plenty of hot water. Washing machine and dryer available. Free coffee every morning.

Great Campground, TERRIBLE owners.
The owners of this campground are among the rudest people we have ever come across in the camping world.
On our first attempt at reserving a site, we reserved the site three months in advance. When we arrived, they moved us to a different spot to accommodate 'other campers' with zero explanation. When we tried to explain we reserved that site in advance and specifically, the older bald guy, became unprofessionally furious and threatened to kick us off the grounds without a refund. The second year we tried to stay there,we again, reserved a specific site AND paid the lock-in fee, thinking, surely, this will not happen again. Unfortunately, the campground is rather beautiful, so we simply tried to fully abide by THEIR OWN rules the second time to avoid unnecessary conflict.
Nope. When we arrived, they moved us AGAIN to a terrible site. Bottomline, these people are power-trippers. They're argumentative, they're rude, they're short, and if you even try to ask about the reservation process, they will just kick you off the property with no refund and no campsite.
And again, they do not calmy explain what they're doing or why. They just do it...and if you question them, they will escalate the situation to an incredulous level of arguing.
This place could be incredible, but the owners have completely ruined it. We will never be trying to stay here again, and will pass it along to anyone trying to stay in that area.

Babcock State Park Campground
Quiet, out of the way
We stayed here for 3 nights, occupying site 32. Although is was close to the bath house, I would not recommend this specific site, as it is not very level.(But, there are plenty of other nice sites around the park.) When you arrive, you check in at the small building along Clifftop Rd. They have ice($3/bag) and firewood(skip it...find another place to buy wood as the park's is too green to burn).
The campground is a maze of fairly unmarked roads winding lazily through the trees.(Seriously, put up a sign or two for direction.) The bath house is dated, but relatively clean. Showers take a minute or two to heat up and lack serious pressure, but they work. Sites are generally spaced far enough apart and noise is kept to a minimum. The weekend we were there had a lot of kids riding bikes, playing in the playground and doing kid stuff. Good to see.
The park is out of the way, but only a short drive to the New River Gorge and park system. Cell service was 5G for both Verizon and T-Mobile. The park has wi-fi, but we never needed it.
Guide to Sandstone
Cabin camping near Sandstone, West Virginia places visitors within the New River Gorge region, with elevations ranging from 1,400 to 2,500 feet. Winter temperatures often drop below freezing, making cabin heating systems essential from November through March. Most cabins in this area require minimum 2-night stays during peak summer months.
What to do
Hiking trail access: Many cabins at Camp Creek State Park connect to waterfall trails and hiking paths. "The waterfalls are a short walk from the campground. Firewood is available and they deliver it to your site. The bundles are quite generous in size," notes Kevin E.
Water activities: Fishing and swimming are popular at Greenbrier River Campground from May through September. "Great campground with kayak and canoe trips. Lots of fishing and swimming available. Tubing is the best trip from Ronceverte to the Campground on the Greenbrier River if you have a full day to just unplug," according to Rebecca F.
Winter cabin options: Several parks maintain year-round cabin availability with improved insulation and heating. "We stayed in one of the cabins for Christmas. We were one of a handful of visitors staying at that time of year. The cabins are heated, which kept us plenty warm in the middle of winter," reports Les R. about their stay at Adventures on the Gorge.
What campers like
Private cabin layouts: Campers appreciate cabin spacing at Little Beaver State Park, noting the consideration given to site planning. "The campground is quiet with well space sites. Bathrooms are traditional but clean and functioning well," observes Adam and Suzanne B.
Quality of cabin amenities: Many cabins feature practical comforts without excessive frills. "The kitchen was stocked with minimal kitchen ware, we brought in our groceries. In the town of Hinton there are a couple of grocery stores; so easy access. There was a picnic table and satellite TV to our surprise," explains Rob S. about Meador Campground cabins.
Clean facilities: Bathroom cleanliness receives consistent praise across parks. "Showers were the best of any campground I've seen- water gets as hot as you'd like, with great water pressure and plenty of hooks and towel racks. Laundry room available in bathhouse," notes Nicole M. about her Camp Creek State Park experience.
What you should know
Seasonal limitations: Several campgrounds restrict cabin access during winter months. "Just a quick FYI, there is no camping in the winter. We stopped by for an overnight while enroute to Ohio. I don't always check ahead while road tripping," shares Shelly S. from Little Beaver State Park.
Transportation considerations: Many cabin sites require vehicles that can handle uneven terrain. "The sites are up on top of a mountain side, so you will need a dependable vehicle to get up to your site," advises Renee G. from Ace Adventure Resort.
Noise factors: Environmental noise varies significantly between locations. "A bit noisy since the RV sites are next to the road & railway is across from river. Pet friendly & nice size bundles of firewood for $10. They even come by in the morning to pock up your trash," reports Charlie O. about Greenbrier River Campground.
Tips for camping with families
Kid-friendly activities: Several parks offer dedicated children's areas. "The water park is a bit overpriced but fun none the less. Shower houses are clean and have good water pressure," notes Mathew B. about Ace Adventure Resort's facilities.
Safety considerations: Wildlife encounters require planning. "Stayed here with friends and everything was good except the fact that there were about a half dozen skunks. Kinda kept me on edge," warns Jeff E. about his Meador Campground stay.
Playground proximity: Rifrafters Campground offers family-centered layouts. "The playground was great for our daughters to burn off some energy. We would stay here again, especially for a weekend to see the area," shares Melissa O. after staying at Rifrafters.
Tips from RVers
Site leveling requirements: Many cabin and RV sites require adjustment for comfort. "Many sites looked like it may take some work to get level. We were in site 20 with a 23 ft TT and got level fairly easily but a longer rig may have difficulty in that site," advises Adam and Suzanne B. about Little Beaver State Park.
Power options: Electric service varies between campgrounds. "The entry road was a little tight for my 25' TT. Almost all of the sites can only handle smaller rigs. Only a few of the sites have 50 amp," notes a reviewer from Lake Stephens.
Cabin access roads: Navigation can be challenging for larger vehicles. "The roadways are very narrow. Limited large rig sites," reports Dennis I. about his Babcock State Park experience.
