Weekend Trip to Olde Tyme Cabins
The location was perfect! We felt secluded in our little camp and were able to hike up the hillside nearby. We loved the campfire with the lights strung around, and there were roasting sticks in one of the RV cubbies. The hot tub was amazing. We did get rained out of the hot tub, since there is no awning over it, but once the rain stopped, we were able to enjoy again. The master bed was comfortable, and the bunk beds have a curtain to keep lights out for later sleepers. We camped in mid-November and stayed warm and cozy the whole time. Our only complaint was the water. It never quite worked well enough to shower, and washing dishes was frustrating. We did let our hosts know, and they came quickly to work on it, which helped for a short while, but didn't last the duration.

Beautiful tent site that overlooked the pretty blue water. Wood was only $5 a bundle and Amber brought it right to us. And what a deal it was! Toilet was nice and tidy as well.

Peaceful. Very quiet area and easy access to the river. Very close to a Walmart if you forget any supplies. Tim was very nice and welcoming and gave good recommendations for hikes and fishing.

We loved camping on Wade’s Spearmint Patch! There was so much to explore in the surrounding area and we truly felt at peace. We didn’t know how much we needed the chance to completely disconnect and slow down. Seneca Rocks was incredible and we hope to be back!

I had a great time camping in the pasture, the night sky was so open and clear and full of stars. I appreciated that you can see the Community Center from any of the campgrounds so you can make your way there to use the toilets and showers.

Really enjoyed camping on Vincent's campgrounds! We went for three nights in late October and the fall foliage was out of a painting. The coffee pavilion was cute and I thought the firewood was a good deal. We were on RF2, one of the large riverfront campgrounds and really enjoyed being right on the water. No one else was on the other two riverfront campgrounds so the privacy was nice; not too many trees in between our camp and RF3 if there had been others there. We took a drive up to the Olson Observation tower (maybe 15 minutes away) and it was a view I'll never forget. Definitely the highlight for me!

Really enjoyed the the camp! Its nice and quiet back behind the rocks and not far from the main trail head to the top of seneca rocks or the stores in town. Would definitely love to come back sometime. Wade was there to meet and greet us with the firewood already stacked and ready to go. Greatly appreciated his kindness and hospitality.

Fourth Moon Camp was perfect. Nice and secluded but only a few minutes drive to a couple historic general stores with restaurants and everything you'd need. The Camp is literally right behind Seneca Rocks on a private property with amazing views. Wade was kind enough to stock us up with more than enough firewood and was super helpful prior to and during our arrival. We are already making plans to return!

My partner & I tent camped on Amber’s land at the site near the beaver dam!
Amber was very kind & came to check on us. Our spot was very quiet & peaceful ~ plus the stars put on a beautiful show at night! We were briefly visited by a cow & enjoyed listening to the birds that flew by.
Definitely a Hipcamp worth checking out ~ I would love to return & stay the night in one of the small lodging spots, the property had a lot to explore & much to offer.

Spent a weekend during the fall season of 2025. Perfect cabin tucked away in a different section away from most of the RVs. The river runs next to it which will be wonderful during rains and when the water levels are up. We traveled as a family of 4 whereas the cabin can sleep 9 - 2 bunk beds for 4 kids. Elkins town is about 10 -15 minute drive for all groceries - Kroger, Walmart and all essentials. Strongly recommend for people who love to enjoy an RV park but want to maintain their own personal space..

I loved my experience here especially at the browns gap site! the whole land is on a slight grade but browns gap and others had leveled areas meant for tent placement. showers and bathrooms were very clean and had hot water. The dog Abba was awesome and loves to greet everyone. At certain points the livestock or other campers dogs can be loud but it beats camping at other crowded campgrounds. definitely reccomend especially for the price!

Overview
About
Experience glamping at its finest on the grounds of Canaan Valley Resort State Park, where amenities on top of amenities make this a luxury experience even for those in tents. Laundry, showers, ice, and firewood are available near campsites, and pets can join in on the fun so long as they’re kept on a leash. Up at 3100 feet, fog rolls in across the tree lined mountains each morning in the highest valley east of the Rocky Mountains. This West Virginia gem, the second largest inland wetland in the country, offers sweeping views from the resort. Excellent skiing is available into late spring, as the slopes are in a prime spot to receive sun protection from tree coverage.
Limitless recreation opportunities will keep you busy until nightfall, with a champion-level golf course, Blackwater Falls, and sporting clay range nearby. The resort has a saltwater pool, and hosts a popular annual birding festival that’s worth planning your trip around even if you don’t love birds (you can avoid the crowds by choosing the next weekend). Pack a bottle of Prosecco and some gourmet snacks, because you’ll be camping in style at Canaan!
