Wood Mountain Campground

6 RV Sites, 16 Tent Sites, 4 Glamping Sites

Wood Mountain Campground in Glen Jean, West Virginia, offers six full-hookup RV sites, 16 tent sites, and four glamping sites on a hilltop directly off Highway 19, at the heart of New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. Sites carry 30 and 50-amp with water and sewer, sized to 35 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Six sites run in standard and premium full-hookup configurations carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 35 feet — note the 35-foot cap before booking a larger rig. Sixteen tent sites and four glamping sites round out the accommodations, alongside two-bedroom cabins with fully equipped kitchens and large covered porches. Restrooms, showers, and site WiFi handle the practical side. The hilltop position gives views across the surrounding forested ridgelines, and a disc golf course, barn, pavilion, corn hole, and picnicking areas fill the grounds. The operators put it plainly: this is West Virginia, where there are more trees than people, and guests who want to keep to themselves are as welcome as those who want to chat. Pets are welcome. Glen Jean sits directly across from both the Summit Bechtel Reserve — one of the largest scouting and outdoor education facilities in the world — and the national park's administrative hub, which puts this about as close to the action as any private property in the gorge. River outfitters and the town of Fayetteville are a short drive, and a creek and mountain terrain surround the property. Summer whitewater season and October foliage drive demand in the gorge. With six RV sites, reserve as early as you can.

Bear Mountain Cabins & Campgrounds

32 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites

Bear Mountain Cabins and Campgrounds in Fayetteville, West Virginia, offers 32 RV sites and 10 tent sites one mile from the New River Gorge, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, open all year. Full-hookup and water-and-electric back-in and pull-through categories join a general store, playground, and laundry. Thirty-two sites span back-in water-and-electric 30/50-amp, back-in water-electric-sewer 30/50-amp, and pull-thru water-electric-sewer 30/50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 75 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The category names spell out exactly which utilities you get. Seventy-five feet is generous for gorge-country terrain and accommodates a long coach with a tow. Ten tent sites and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A playground, volleyball, and the surrounding forest fill the grounds. The amenity set is focused rather than sprawling, which is right for a property whose guests are here for the gorge. Pets are welcome. The address is 130 Laurel Creek Road, one mile from the New River Gorge and three or four minutes from downtown Fayetteville. The gorge became America's newest national park in 2020, and the whitewater rafting, world-class climbing, and the single-span New River Gorge Bridge are all right there. Bridge Day in October draws BASE jumpers and enormous crowds. Summer rafting season and October foliage drive demand hard. Reserve well ahead, particularly for Bridge Day.

Momma Tried RV & Campground

38 RV Sites, 2 Tent Sites

Momma Tried RV and Campground in Cabins, West Virginia, offers 38 full-hookup RV sites and two tent sites in the forested mountains of the eastern highlands, with 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 70 feet, open all year. A single full-hookup category means every guest gets the same spec, with sports courts, walking trails, a playground, and dog park on a mountain stream. Thirty-eight sites are full hookup throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two things to note: service is 50-amp, so bring an adapter if your rig runs 30, and 70 feet accommodates a long coach with a tow — generous for mountain terrain. Two tent sites round out the lodging. Restrooms handle the practical side. A river runs the property for fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and swimming, with sports courts, basketball, walking trails, hiking, a playground, and dog park filling the rest. Mountains rise nearby. Pets are welcome. The community of Cabins is a name that captures the character exactly. This corner of eastern West Virginia is among the wildest and least developed country in the eastern United States — hardwood hollows, cold mountain streams, and the Monongahela National Forest's high country. Seneca Rocks, Dolly Sods Wilderness, Smoke Hole Canyon, and Spruce Knob, the highest point in the state, are all within reach. Summer and fall foliage drive the heaviest demand in the Potomac Highlands, with year-round operation serving hunters and winter travelers. Reserve well ahead for October.

Nature's Getaway RV Park

30 RV Sites, 3 Tent Sites

Nature's Getaway RV Park in Schellsburg, Pennsylvania, offers 30 RV sites and three tent sites seven miles west of Bedford on Route 30, with 20, 30, and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Back-in categories at both amperages join a 30-amp pull-through tier, with an outdoor pool, game room, ball field, and general store. Thirty sites span back-in water-and-electric 30-amp, back-in water-and-electric 50-amp, and pull-thru water-and-electric 30-amp categories, carrying water and electric with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Plan around the hookups — sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity and use the dump station. Three tent sites and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a game room, arcade, ball field, billiards, shuffleboard, volleyball, horseshoes, a playground, and swimming filling the rest. A state park is nearby, and the dark rural sky makes for genuinely good stargazing. Pets are welcome. Bedford County sits where the Allegheny Mountain ridges meet Shawnee State Park's forested plateau, and the old Lincoln Highway corridor has carried travelers past this spot since the road was built. Historic Bedford's preserved downtown, the Flight 93 National Memorial, and Blue Knob's skiing are all within reach, with the Pennsylvania Turnpike close. Summer and fall foliage drive the heaviest demand in the Alleghenies. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends and peak October color.
