RV Camping near Parkersburg, West Virginia

Sparkman Lake

3 RV Sites, 5 Cabins

Sparkman Lake in Woodsfield, Ohio, offers three full-hookup back-in RV sites and five cabins across more than 40 wooded acres, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. A single back-in category means every guest gets the same spec, with a private lake, walking trails, playground, and dog park. Three back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits. One consistent category covering all three amperages means any rig plugs in without an adapter, and 60 feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Five cabins round out the lodging. Showers and firewood handle the practical side. A private lake anchors the property for boating, paddle boats, and fishing, with walking trails, hiking, basketball, a playground, and dog park filling the rest. Planned activities run through the season, and the property operates as a wedding venue. Pets are welcome. Forty wooded acres and a private lake for three RV sites is an extraordinary ratio — guests essentially have the property to themselves, and the quiet is the product. Directions: the campground sits between Malaga and Miltonsburg directly off SR-145, 1.7 miles south of the SR-800 intersection in Malaga, and about ten minutes from Woodsfield. Monroe County is one of the quieter corners of southeastern Ohio's Appalachian foothills — forested ridges, old farm hollows, and unhurried rural character. Guests from Columbus, Pittsburgh, and Wheeling come for exactly that, with the Ohio River, Wayne National Forest, and Seneca Lake all within reach. Summer and fall foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead — three sites go quickly.

Perry Backwoods Campgrounds

42 RV Sites

Perry Backwoods Campgrounds in New Lexington, Ohio, offers 21 RV sites on nine family-owned acres, with full-hookup back-in sites carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp service, and rigs accepted to 60 feet. The layout is big-rig friendly — unusual for a campground this size in the southeast Ohio hill country. Twenty-one sites run from full-hookup back-ins with 30 and 50-amp service to primitive RV sites for guests who need less. Rigs up to 60 feet fit, and a dump station serves those without full hookups. Restrooms and showers are on site. Pets are welcome. On-site facilities are straightforward. A playground serves families, and hiking runs from the property through the wooded Perry County hills. The nine-acre scale and family ownership mean guests deal directly with the operators, and the campground continues to add facilities. Off-roading areas are nearby for guests hauling ATVs. New Lexington sits on US-22 about 60 miles southeast of Columbus, in the reclaimed coal country that has grown back into some of the most rugged terrain in an otherwise glacially flattened state. Hocking Hills State Park, the AEP ReCreation Land, and the Wayne National Forest are all within day-trip range. The campground serves the southeast Ohio camping season, drawing from the Columbus and Athens markets. Fall color through October is the most scenic window, and summer weekends see the heaviest demand. Reserve ahead for both.

Pine Creek Cabins & Camping Resort

34 RV Sites, 10 Cabins

Pine Creek Cabins & Camping Resort in South Bloomingville, OH, offers 36 RV sites and 10 cabins, with 30 and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites are back-ins carrying water and electric — there are no sewer hookups, so plan on the on-site dump station for longer stays. The resort is rated big rig friendly within its 45-foot limit and is open all year. A bathhouse with showers, WiFi, propane exchange, firewood, and a pavilion cover the essentials, and horse pens and stalls are available for guests traveling with horses. Pets are welcome, and there's a pet washing station. Cancellation on campsites requires 15 days' notice for a full refund less a processing fee. A hot tub, community fire pit, playground, gaga ball, walking trails, a barn, and a wedding venue fill out the grounds, with planned activities, live music, horseback riding, and creek frontage on the property.

If you're not bringing horses, disregard the stall options when booking.

Palmerosa Horse & Hike Campground

13 RV Sites, 22 Tent Sites

Palmerosa Horse & Hike Campground in Laurelville, OH, offers RV sites with water and electric hookups, private tent sites, and cabins, with room for rigs up to 60 feet. Contact the campground for site count and amp service, since those specifics aren't published. Several policies are worth knowing before you book: one vehicle per site, with additional vehicles and trailers directed to overflow parking; RV sites hold up to six guests and tent sites up to four. Guests bringing horses must reserve the right number of stalls and bring their own horse-care tools and bedding — and straw bedding is not permitted. A bathhouse with private bathrooms and hot showers, a general store, firewood, a dump station, fire rings, and picnic tables cover the rest. Pets are welcome. Covered horse stalls and walking trails put this campground squarely in the equestrian category, with more than 40 miles of bridle trails reachable from the property. Download the bridle trail map before you arrive — cell service drops out on the trails. Laurelville sits in the heart of Ohio's Hocking Hills, close to Old Man's Cave, Ash Cave, Cedar Falls, and Conkle's Hollow, but deliberately away from the busiest park areas. Rates for sites, tent spots, and cabins are on the booking page. Reserve stalls alongside your site if you're bringing horses.

Rocky Fork Ranch

1 RV Site

Rocky Fork Ranch in Kimbolton, Ohio, is a ranch-themed family resort offering 1 water-and-electric RV site alongside cabins, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 30 feet, open all year. Horseback riding, a golf driving range, mini-golf, disc golf, an outdoor pool, hot tub, and fitness center fill a property that operates at genuine resort scale. The RV site is water-and-electric back-in, carrying 30 and 50-amp service, sized to 30 feet. Two things to plan around: the sites carry water and electric rather than sewer, and the 30-foot cap rules out most modern coaches — this suits vans, small trailers, and truck campers. Contact the ranch about additional site availability. Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The recreation is the point here. Horseback riding, a golf driving range, mini-golf, a disc golf course, an outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna, fitness center, recreation center, clubhouse, game room, barn, sports courts, tennis, basketball, volleyball, billiards, gaga ball, horseshoes, walking trails, hiking, a lake, dog park, and pavilion all sit on the property, with boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and productive birding besides. Planned activities run through the season. That amenity list is extraordinary — this is a working ranch resort rather than a campground with a pool. Guernsey County's rolling hill country sits in unglaciated southeastern Ohio, with Salt Fork State Park, the Rocky Fork Rodeo, the Cambridge Glass Museum, and the Living Word outdoor drama all close. Summer drives demand. Reserve well ahead.

Camp Holly

8 RV Sites

Camp Holly in Diana, West Virginia, offers eight full-hookup RV sites across a 22-acre mountain property in Webster County, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 36 feet. Cabins, glamping structures, and tent camping join a pond, playground, and general store in the state's most rugged interior. Eight back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 36 feet, with site WiFi. Note the 36-foot cap before booking a larger rig. Cabins, glamping structures, and tent camping round out the accommodations. A general store, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Two useful tips from the operators: buy fishing passes when you book your campsite for a discounted rate, and add a jumbo firewood square at booking and they will deliver it to your site. Pets are welcome. A pond anchors the on-site recreation with fishing, swimming, paddle boats, boating, canoeing, and kayaking from the water. A community fire pit, playground, hiking, and biking fill the rest, with planned activities through the season. Diana sits on WV-20 in the heartland of the Mountain State's most remote interior. The Cranberry Wilderness, the Gauley River National Recreation Area, and the Williams River's wild brook trout stream give this the most complete wilderness and outdoor adventure access of any campground in central West Virginia's Chestnut Ridge and Back Allegheny country. Summer water recreation and October foliage drive demand. With eight RV sites, reserve well ahead.

Ray's Campground

4 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 20 Tent Sites

Ray's Campground in Hico, West Virginia, offers four RV sites with 30-amp electric service, nine cabins, and 20 tent sites at the center of the New River Gorge region, with rigs accepted to 40 feet. The accommodation mix across RV, cabin, and tent is the point — flexible lodging in one of the East's most concentrated adventure destinations. Four back-in sites carry 30-amp electric only, sized to 40 feet — note there are no water or sewer hookups at the sites, so arrive self-contained and plan tank capacity. Nine cabins carry most of the inventory and provide enclosed lodging, and 20 tent sites cover simpler camping. Restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Two vehicles are allowed per site, with an extra vehicle fee of $5 per night on arrival. Pets are welcome. The campground keeps its infrastructure deliberately simple, which suits guests who spend their days on the river and the rock. The surrounding gorge does the work. Hico sits in Fayette County in southern West Virginia, where the New River has carved one of the oldest and most dramatic gorges in the Appalachians over hundreds of millions of years. World-class whitewater rafting runs beside world-class rock climbing terrain, and the scale of the gorge itself earned the region national park designation in 2020. River outfitters, climbing access, and Fayetteville are all close. The campground serves the New River Gorge season. Summer whitewater and October foliage drive the heaviest demand, and Bridge Day in October fills lodging across the entire region. Reserve well ahead for any fall weekend.

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.

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.

Wally World Riverside Resort

5 RV Sites

Wally World Riverside Resort in Loudonville, Ohio, offers five RV sites on the banks of the Mohican River, with 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 47 feet in back-in and pull-through configurations. An outdoor pool, mini-golf, and a game room serve a classic Midwest family campground in Mohican Country. Five sites carry water and electric on 30 and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 47 feet — note there are no sewer hookups at the sites, though a dump station is available. At five sites, availability is genuinely limited, so book well ahead. A general store, laundry, and WiFi handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. On-site recreation is deeper than the site count suggests. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with mini-golf, a game room, and an arcade for other hours. Sports courts, basketball, volleyball, ping pong, a playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the grounds, with fishing from the river and planned activities through the season. Loudonville sits in Ashland County on the Mohican River, where the Clear Fork's canoe corridor, the surrounding state forest's hiking trails, and a well-established outfitter infrastructure have made this Ohio's most celebrated canoe and camping destination since the 1960s family camping movement. Generations of Ohio families have come back to this stretch of gentle current, and the resort's riverside position and family programming reflect that tradition directly. Summer canoe season is decisively the peak. With five sites, reserve as early as you can for warm-weather weekends.

Revelle's River Resort

51 RV Sites, 13 Cabins, 1 Yurt

Revelle's River Resort in Bowden, West Virginia, offers 51 full-hookup RV sites, four cabins, and a yurt along two miles of Shavers Fork river frontage in the Monongahela National Forest, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet.

Fifty-one back-in sites span standard, dry, riverfront 30-amp, and riverfront categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with cable TV and picnic tables, sized to 45 feet. The riverfront categories are the reason to book here, and the dry tier gives self-contained rigs a lower rate. Four cabins, including heated units, and a yurt round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A splash pad and hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with a recreation center, clubhouse, pavilion, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, a playground, dog park, and on-site dining filling the grounds. The saloon hosts live weekend music, and the river carries fishing, swimming, hiking, and biking. Skiing and snowboarding are nearby, and the resort operates as a wedding venue. Revelle's sits nine miles east of Elkins, just off Route 33 on Faulkner Road at Bowden — the physical address is 5 Faulkner Road. Summer, fall color, and ski season all draw. Reserve well ahead for October and holiday weekends.
