Whenever you stay at a privately owned
campground you never know what you might find. I would describe the campground as "rough around the edges" but I have stayed there several times and will again. |
|
|
When you arrive there is no check-in
station. There are also homes sharing the same road so it's a little confusing. Go to the left of the sign in the photo. |
|
|
The campground is broken up into three
levels. Here is a picture of the top level. |
|
|
As you drive pass the top level you will
come to the bathhouse. My biggest minus for the campground is the bathhouse. On the Men's side there are two toilets, a shower stall and one sink in a maybe 11'x11' space. Very crowded. It did have hot water. |
|
|
The second level is for tents and
overflow for the RVs. There is also a old trailer and a couple of broken down school buses. There are electric/water hookups on the left side of the road. It's an extra $5 if you use a hookup so make it clear if you aren't going to use them. Otherwise tents $20 a night. |
|
|
Or just camp on the right side of the
road. There are no numbered sites so just setup where ever you want. The owner Harry Gum will eventually drive by in his pickup truck and you pay him. Harry is very friendly. Before he retired, Harry's job was to transport prisoners between Huttonsville and the state pen. Don't mess with Harry. |

|
There is a third level to the
campground. It doesn't have any electric/water hookups and it's farthest from the bathhouse. It does have one thing going for it.......... |
|
|
....The Cass Railroad runs just a few
feet from your tent. |
|
|
There is one more thing about the
campground that I have to rate as Double Plus Good. Unlimited free firewood. Hot Damn. Literally |
