ScoutLots of pull thru sites, full hook up, even have dog park and laundry.
ScoutWe spent July 4th weekend here and really enjoyed it.
Bathrooms are nicer than our bathrooms at home.
Friendly and helpful staff. There was low key live music Friday and a band/party Saturday night that was super fun.
Good central location to all the fun stuff in the area.
We stayed in partial hookup site #3 and the only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because these sites are right on top of each other and there's not a lot of room to back into the space. We have a small travel trailer and it was a tight fit. Our site also overlooked a gravel parking lot and the heat reflecting up off the gravel made our location very HOT during the day.
Overall, however, I liked this campground and would stay here again.
GuideAwesome spot in mountain, not too many sites but they are all well marked. Just have to push through some steep gravel roads but we did it in truck and trailer.
RangerReally enjoyed our stay here. Beautiful resort style property and close to the National Park. Sites are big, a few are un-level but ours in site 15 was great. Clean facilities. Great pool and restaurants. Activities offered are awesome. Great place to vacation!
ScoutWe had a wonderful experience at River Ridge! It has the best little area along the Greenbrier River for easy kayaking, fishing or floating in inner tubes. We even rented a kayak for few hours and put in up the river passes the people bridge and came out right back at the campground an hour later. The owner was extremely pleasant and helpful, even after office hours with firewood. Everyone around us were other families and made for a great atmosphere. Quiet hours were well respected and it was always very clean. We can’t wait to come back!
ScoutNice clean place. Right next to river. 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. Wish we had more time to take a float down river, they rent kayak & tubes.
TravelerMountain Lake Campground is a massive system of varied campsites (hammock sites to large full-hookups). This was our first trip here and since arriving we’ve been impressed. Staff is courteous, facilities are very clean and stocked, and the property has so many amenities (shower houses, laundromats, pools, ice cream store, and playgrounds).
While sitting at our fire pit tonight, we booked a return trip in September.
ScoutElectric back in site. Water and bathhouse available across the road in the other part of the camp ground. Unusual set up.
GuideAnother terrific park in West Virginia. So much to do. The sites accommodate everything from tents to large fifth wheels.
The Riverside loop, there is another loop on the east end of the park (it was closed).
The Greenbrier River was right at the back of our site. People were floating and fishing and paddling. The Greenbrier River Trail, an 80 mile long rail trail is just across the river, accessible two mile from the park, we rode our bikes to the trail.
Hiking, and Arboretum trail, so much to do.
Cranberry Wilderness is less than 30 mins away. Great hiking, the best Visitor's center, with the nicest folks.
