I caution myself from writing such a great review that I will never be able to get a spot at Big Bend again. Where to start. First off when we arrived, we were ushered in through the gate by Fall decorations. That followed by a warm greeting from the camp hosts, Rick and Tomiko (I sure hope I am spelling your name right, please forgive me if I am not). Cheerful and obviously caring about how our trip in was. Also about how our stay will be. While we were checking in, others stopped by just to say hi to the hosts. Everyone was friendly. Now onto the campgrounds. We pulled into our site and in all my camping I had not seen a better kept grounds as I did here. Not so manicured that it killed our connection to nature, but obvious care and pride in keeping the grounds up. The restrooms and bathhouse were in great condition. The trails were all kept clean. Just not a single complaint from a two night stay. Now something embarrassing for me is I woke up the following morning to find the battery on my truck was faulty and Rick without hesitation came and gave me a jump. He also pointed me towards Petersburg, where I could get another battery. Turned what could have been a horrible day into a great day with a nice trip through Petersburg. We met the nice folks at the local Napa. Very nice people. Struck up a good conversation with Rick and his Tomiko and found out some back story and how much heart and soul has gone into their love for Big Bend. On the way out they even gave us a recommendation for a place to as we were driving through Petersburg. A place called Cheetah Bs. I highly recommend this joint as well. Great food, just as described. I cant say thank you enough to those two for making our stay extra special. They are the best hosts I have ever come across. We will be back soon as I think I have found my home away from home. (Just a note to Tomiko - we made it home safely)I highly recommend you book a stay here, but please leave a site open for me

I've been going here for over 30 years. They have new management. It's remote with no cell coverage. The nearby store has free wifi now. Great for tubing, there's a rope swing for the brave. Camp sites are neat and tidy. Always a great atmosphere and happy campers.

What a fabulous camp ground! We loved everything about it! We had spot #2 right by the river and it was perfect, I can't recommend it enough. It was large enough for multiple tents and was envelope a canopy of trees, so lots of shade. There was a short trail leading down to the river, which was beautiful. There were three deer that seemed to live in are camping spot. We saw them everyday, they never were scared of us. They would walk up so close! We had no issues with the camp host, as others have mentioned, only seeing him once upon our first arrival. Our favorite part of camping here was tubing the river. We got right in at our spot and tuned down to the parking lot. You get out there and go to the right up the hill before getting back in the river to continue back to our camping spot. Not too long down that way you will find the rope swing on your right. Our 4 kids had a blast and it was plenty deep in that area. I can't recommend this campground enough!

The campground was absolutely beautiful! Well maintained, with each site tuck into nature! The host was very helpful and friendly; the bathrooms and showers were clean & always stocked. It was our first trip to Big Bend and our family enjoyed every minute of getting off the grid and basking in the beauty of the mountains of WV! Highly recommend!

The sites were great, but not as close to the water as the map while making reservations would lead you to believe.
The camp host was exceedingly rude. Gave our respectful group a hostile warning about being loud at night, and charged $8 per car for every night. This was not detailed ahead of time. He also made us move our cars when we didn't need to and made other rude comments mostly to the campers of a certain gender.
