"Most people mentioned the host of the campground and how can you not?? He was very welcoming and checked in on us to make sure everything was okay. We arrived in a few inches of snow and he made sure we were okay pulling in and with our water hook up (for an RV). There weren't many people around and I very much enjoyed the quietness of the area. It was very close to Spruce Knob and great hikes. The only downfall was that there was ZERO service. It was hard getting around and even leaving because my phone wouldn't work."

"Had a wonderful 3 night stay tent camping here in early October. The owners were so attentive and helpful and checked in every evening (but not obtrusive). Easy access to electric and water spigot. The pit toilets were as pleasant as pit toilets can be (toilet paper was provided which is very nice). Great big picnic table was near our site and fire pit that you could move around were great. Very peaceful and the leaves were beginning to change. Would definitely camp here again if in the area."

"What a hidden gem!!! If you want a peaceful, serene, off the beaten path stay, for a great price, you've found it. Eber, is a wonderful host who goes above and beyond for his guests. He's the absolute best!!! I've traveled alot and I've yet to stay at a nicer campground. The RV and tent sites are cozy and well-kept. Larger trees offer nice shade for the tents while still showing some sunshine through. He offers seasoned/dry firewood for $7 a bundle or 3 bundles for $20. He also sells ice. We camped in a tent for one night and used three bundles for the evening and three for the morning (as I cooked breakfast). The fire pits are great, offering a nice grill to put skillets and pots on. Each site even offers electricity and there's a central water pump! The lots are nice gravel and flat. The campground is very close to the lake (smaller, no swimming), but great for fishing/kayaks/hiking/stargazing. And if you're looking for amazing views, you must check out Spruce Knob, highest point in WV. Make sure to take the short trail around the knob. It was better than the observation tower. It's also close to Seneca Rocks/Nelson Rocks, and a short drive from Blackwater Falls. Not to mention the beautiful sunrise/sunset/star-gazing right from the mountain-top campground! We can't wait to come back in the fall next year and this will be our go-to campsite for the rest of our WV camping adventures! Thank you Eber for an amazing/peaceful stay in your little piece of heaven! ❤"

"Great quiet spot near Spruce Knob with full hookups. Tent sites are available too. Mr. Eber came by to check on us around super time and made sure we had everything. Super nice place and owner! If you're spending time in the Monongahela National Forest area, check it out."
