Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Camp Creek adventure.
Discover Camp Creek State Park's natural beauty and outdoor adventures. Â
Bust out the heavy duty camera for your trip to Camp Creek State Park, where the bubbling falls are so photogenic itâd be a shame to just capture it on a camera phone. This West Virginia gem off the interstate is flanked on both ends by killer waterfalls, Campbell and Mash Fork. The Mash Fork campground puts you and your tent right next to the flowing stream, perfect for trout fishing. Both are accessible by some of the 33 miles of hiking trails spanning into Camp Creek State Forest, of which plenty are mountain bike and horse-friendly. Check out the Double C campground if youâre looking to camp with your noble steed!
Nestled between the stunning mountains of southern West Virginia, youâll have plenty to do here between the badminton and volleyball nets, and horseshoe pits. When youâre ready for a retreat from nature, head into town to tour the Beckley Exhibition Coal Mine (wear a sweater, it gets cold down there), or the Bramwell Historic District—all buildings here are pre-1920, including the Corner Shop Diner, which has the original soda fountain still intact.
The ideal time to visit Camp Creek State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural world is in full bloom or awash with autumnal colors. Summer brings warmth perfect for water activities, though it can be crowded. Winters are quieter but chillier, so pack accordingly.
