New River Gorge Campground - American Alpine Club

This is now on my top campground list. The communal atmosphere lends itself to folks looking for a quiet place to hike or climb the cliffs of nearby New River Gorge. It's right next door to the park. The central bathrooms and wash area was stocked with eco-friendly products and easy access to water. You can't have a fire at your site but, instead, they have two or more large communal fire pits that make for a great atmosphere at night to get to know your fellow campers and get tips for the next day's trip. I went with my kids and we were one of maybe only a couple sites with kids which kept the camp area super quiet and serene. The tent sites have a wooden elevated bed, but an inner loop has vehicle sites specific for vans and Class Bs. A covered community area and refurbished school bus turned morning coffee station were there, but nothing going on with either while we were there.
