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.

Welcome to Doddridge County Park! Doddridge County Park was founded in 1972 as a 57 acres park and has since grown to an over 250-acre park. The Park is situated in a natural setting in the heart of North Central West Virginia. The Park has grown and added many features over the years that provide people with fun and challenging visits. With picnic areas, playgrounds, pool and sports courts the Park can entertain from the youngest guest to the oldest. Each year The Park welcomes visitors from over 25 different states.
In 2012 the Doddridge County Park was gifted over 180 acres from Lone Pine Operating, LLC that helped expand it toward its present size. This gift spurred the Park Commission to begin a master planning process that culminated in 2014 with a plan to add several amenities to the Park. Planned upgrades include; an RV Park, tent sites and yurts that will form the foundation for Lone Pine Campground at Doddridge County Park. Additionally, hiking and biking trails, zip line, stream access for kayaking and canoeing, and a disk golf course were laid out. After adoption, the plan was launched in 2015. Over a six to eight-year period ending between 2020 and 2022 the Park will be transformed into an outdoor enthusiasts’ playground.

There is plenty of space to lay down some sleeping bags for the kids! We are less than a 1/4 mile from Maniac Mountain Haunted House, so you will hear the chainsaws, gun shots, and screams during the Sept-Nov time. We have 160 acres of wilderness you can explore. Be cautious of wildlife and look for WARNING signs. We have a private shooting range in the bottom fields of the property so you may hear gun shots April- September.

As part of the Elk River Hotel and Café, there are four glamping tents located on the Elk River. We have the Dyrt to thank for finding these as I’m quite certain I would not have found them otherwise! We tend to take months-long road trips and every once in a while, we like to find unique accommodations, and this fit the bill. Possible future expansion plans include Vermont and Florida but for now, this is the only location for GlampOut Resorts (not to be confused with Glamp Out Resort– singular).
Each glamping tent has a sink/small fridge, and coffee maker, a fully plumbed bathroom, and a king or queen-sized bed with linens. Bath towels are provided but no toiletries so make sure you bring them. The tents were spacious and clean, and the heater was appreciated during a cold, damp October stay. There is a sink and dorm-sized fridge but no microwave or way to cook a meal. Breakfast is optional, reasonably priced at $10 per person, and is served in the café at 8:30 am. The café is open for dinner Tuesday– Saturday from 4 pm– 9 pm and the food was good. I only saw one other breakfast/lunch eatery in town and no grocery store so plan accordingly, especially if you plan to be there on a Sunday or Monday!
About a half mile from the glamping tents is access to the Jeremiah Carpenter Trailhead but use caution. There was a barrier at the entrance, but a local police officer told me I should just walk around it. I hiked about a half mile up the steep hill; when the trail turned to the right, it was overgrown and narrow and since I was by myself, I just turned around and came back down the way I came. I later learned there had been bear sightings on this trail! Nearby is the Flatwoods Monster Chair Trail. I wasn’t sure if there was a put-in area for kayaks or canoes and no one I asked seemed to know. In June, there is a Big Foot festival and a seasonal farmers market.
When we were there, there was not much to do except relax. There is not much in the sleepy town of Sutton, however, it was a quiet respite for us during the last two weeks of our two-month trip. It is, however, a bit of a splurge at approximately $200 per night.

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.
Scout

Close to Cheat Lake and restaurants in Morgantown.

We booked this trip last minute on Memorial Day weekend and literally took the last site reservable. The place was crowded and our corner was as crowded as anywhere. The people beside us had way too many cars that made it a little tough to back in. The 5 dudes standing around helped us navigate their vehicles but it was annoying. Later the guy brought us over some whiskey and beers, maybe as an unstated apology.
The CG itself was very family oriented and our site was a good size. We went swimming in lake two days and drove down to Flatwoods for some of the best ice cream you can find at The Spot (UFO and alien sighting location lol).
A huge storm rolled through with 40/50 mph winds. We had a little heads up thanks to buying a day of WiFi but most people were caught flat footed. We saw 30 plus awnings and canopies destroyed. Power went out for entire last day but we were fine. No rangers or park folks let us know anything but that was fine.
I’d recommend c1-c5 if you have kids.
Guide
After years of tent camping, this was our first camping trip with camper our and two youngest kids. When we stayed it was cold outside but we had full hook up and were prepared.
We had nice view of the lodge. The lodge amenities are top notch with a heated pool that only costs a a daily charge to use on top of camping. The campsite itself was a little pricey with the only thing distinguishing the campground being lodge activities you have to pay for.
I’d recommend sites 1-5, 20, and 39.

Pros: 50 AMP, sewer & water hookup
Cons: Gravel sites Check-in at Days Inn Limited amenities (pools at Days Inn)

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.
Traveler
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
TravelerLoved this campground right off I-79 Flatwoods exit. Clean, spacious, quiet and convenient to central WV sites
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!
GuideOur stay was for one night on a travel day to another location. Campground is clean and well-maintained. My wife read a review that mentioned check-in is in the Days Inn signage is small and if we didn’t know we needed to check-in at the hotel we would have missed it. This campground is labeled as a journey but with the addition of amenities at the Days Inn this is a great place for a couple of days. Very dog friendly.
Traveler
Right on the River. Perfect for floating. Full hook up sites were amazing. Definitely want to come back.
ScoutFourth visit in three years. It keeps getting better!
GuideWe 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.
GuideThis campground is very well maintained. Bathrooms and showers are very clean. Sites are spacious and well placed.
ScoutThis campground is easy to get to from the interstate. The spaces are big enough that you are not on top of your neighbors, which is nice. This site is fully gravel, so that’s a bit of a turn off for us. The water pressure here is very weak, but there is a shower house that is kept fairly clean for you to use. We were able to connect to Starlink from our site.
ScoutOur 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!
ScoutClose enough to Cheat Lake.
TravelerWe 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
TravelerAwesome place to camp, kayak, and sight see. Owners are some of the nicest you’ll ever meet.
TravelerWe 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 .
ScoutWe 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
GuideThe 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.
ScoutWe 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!
TravelerTis 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!!
GuideEverything the other comments say about the price is true, but that aside this KOA is great. It is set back behind the hotel and far from the interstate. Our site was very large. The entire place was full of trees! So different from other KOAs!
The showers each had their own private door, and there was a hotel free ice machine at the bathrooms! It was super quiet during the week.
