Shady Rest RV Park

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Anglers and hikers using New River Gorge National Park as a base will find Shady Rest RV Park a functional, no-frills staging point. Full hookups include electric, water, and sewer. No bathhouse is on site, though one dated but clean restroom is available. The access road is narrow enough that large rigs should slow down and be prepared to yield. Reservations are accepted, and pets are allowed year-round. Glade Creek Campground sits roughly four miles north for campers who prefer a more rustic setting. Highway noise is audible from the sites, though reviewers report sleeping without issue.

Very friendly

The owners are so so kind and thoughtful! They made the experience here fantastic. These are full hook up sites, very affordable and great proximity to the mid and lower areas of New River Gorge National Park.

It’s definitely a no frills location. Some permanent sites mixed in but everyone was very respectful and nice. No bathhouse option but that’s fine with full hookups.

Just beware when getting here there is a very narrow road, little to at times no room to allow for another vehicle if you happen to meet up. Some large rigs got through it just don’t go fast. There is a sign pointing to the narrow road that tells you where the Rv park is.

Small RV camp ground

Has adequate facilities for rv’s, one restroom that was dated but clean and a host. You can hear the highway, but a quiet place overall. However we got a good nights sleep!
