Monongahela National Forest is one of my favorite public lands to date. Lake Sherwood has great accommodations for tent campers, offering hot showers, private restrooms, & quiet campsites. Lake Sherwood is perfect for kayaking & swimming as no power equipment is allowed. Long hikes are plentiful up & down the surrounding mountains. Perfect trip!

Over 40 years of memories here. It is a joy to continue to share this camping experience with my children and husband. So peaceful.

We stayed the first week of August and it was beautiful weather! The shower houses were very clean and well stocked. On the other hand the vault bathrooms were clean and stocked but the toilets were disgusting! We were there for 9 days and the toilet itself never got cleaned ! Other than that everything else was very pleasant !

Ive been coming to Sherwood for over 40 years and this past visit was probably the best. We went mushroom hunting, kayaking and swimming. With trip was extra special because we met up with life long friends. However I would like to see the beach groomed on the regular.

We stayed in the WSHR loop at the campground. That section was extremely well maintained by camp hosts Alfred and Jane. The grass was mowed and the bathhouse spotless. It was by far the nicest campground we've ever stayed at! Quiet, beautiful lake to kayak and swim, nice hiking trails.

We had an amazing experience at Lake Sherwood. We stayed on site 72 which was right near the boat launch so it was super easy to put our kayak in the water. We enjoyed quiet mornings on the water and saw the sunset each night on our boat. Loved watching all the wildlife. A deer visited our area every morning and evening. We took the hike around the lake and noticed all the beaver activity. The stars were amazing! The bathrooms could definitely be cleaner but otherwise one of our favorite places to visit so far. The site was shady and had plenty of room for our tent, hammocks and screened in tent.

Perfect for the Baileys getaway there were 40 of us. Just wish there were a few more handicap sites. We were in the Meadow Creek loop and the Camp Host Jerry and Ruth are AWESOME!!!
@MarkJ8680764 · Camped on Jun 9, 2025 at Campsite #72
Lake Sherwood is a gorgeous, quiet, serene mountain lake and campground, perfect for families that want to unplug, go camping, and enjoy the beauty of nature! Clean bathrooms, hot showers! Staff is very friendly and hospitable. We love it!

Sherwood Lake is one of my favorite happy places that Ive been going to since before I was born. We love the way the sites are set up and always try for a site on the lake. Since they were able to remove the Lilly pads the last couple of years, weve actually been able to fish from the banks. So to that said, the facilities are definitely showing the lack of funding. Had it not been for our amazing camp hosts we would not have had a shower or sewer. Apparently the rumor is, if it breaks just rope it off. I will hate to see this wonderful place go down hill. I really hope something happens with funding soon. Sherwood is such a summer staple to Greenbrier County.

Had a great time despite the rain and cold.
@CarrieB5797244 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #20
Sherwood is the perfect spot to vacation and "unplug" from the world. It was disappointing the warm/hot water didn't work in the West Shore women's bathroom, but signs were posted which bathrooms did have warm water. I have been camping at Sherwood for 40+ years. It is a great family campground.
@MichaelS838841 · Camped on May 22, 2025 at Campsite #9
I have been going to Sherwood since the late 60's and the great part about it is that it has stayed exactly the same. Its a pleasure to take my kids and grandkids to a place that has not changed since it was built. Well, The only change is now they have hot water haha.
@LonnieW3DF1ACF · Camped on Jul 27, 2024 at Campsite #69
The new bathrooms and showers in Meadow Creek are absolutely awful. They have nowhere to put anything while you shower: you have to go back and forth from shower to bathroom to dry your hair and brush your teeth. They are not being cleaned : they were dirty the whole week we were there. We HATE them ! They should have just installed new faucets in the old bathrooms.
@PaulH7895659 · Camped on Jul 20, 2024 at Campsite #68
our trip to the rain forest was wonderful!
@TammyA23B8DD2A · Camped on Jul 14, 2024 at Campsite #19
Camping at Lake Sherwood is always something we look forward to... from kayaking to swimming, or just spending time with friends and family. The lake is much cleaner this year, but still need to be diligent in keeping the water shield under control. The reason for the 4 stars rating is because the women's shower in West Shore, for 2 weeks, only had 1 shower working. Even with the camp host requesting permission to fix the issue as he is a master plumber, and by the end of the 1st week it should have and could have been fixed.

I have been going to Lake Sherwood for 30 years and the only complaint I've ever had was weather related. The staff at Lake Sherwood is always friendly and helpful. When I leave there I'm always thinking about my next trip. The updated showers bathrooms was a very needed and appreciated update. If someone asked me about what I like best and worst it would be:Likes:The sound of a crackling fire early in the morning and eveningWaking up to the sound of the birds singingHearing rain on my tent at nightThe sounds of children laughing and playingSpending time with my daughter and her familyWalking the trails and taking photos of the lakeThe peacefulness in the early morning while walking to the lake to watch the sunrise Meeting new people who share in the love of this placeEating and cooking outdoors...I don't even mind doing dishes!Seeing my grandson's enthusiasm at meeting up with an old friend and fishing buddyI I love this place!Dislikes:Packing up and going homeUnpacking

Nice campground nestled in the Monongahela National Forest. Plenty of wildlife to watch, trails to bike or walk on, and easy lake access for boating or fishing. Campground facilities were well maintained. Warm water showers are a plus!
@DeborahW920812 · Camped on May 31, 2024 at Campsite #74
First trip back since I was a child. Had a wonderful relaxing time. Hope to return soon!
@ReidC3441227 · Camped on May 27, 2024 at Campsite #69
Brand new bath and shower buildings which are modern and nice looking. Enjoy. New modern facilities but don't worry, it's still the same beautiful campground it's always been.
@RichardS712869 · Camped on May 20, 2024 at Campsite #87
Looks like there is money flowing into the campground, New Bathhouses (mine didn't have water yet) and improved gravel sites. It is a wonderful area, so I hope they keep it getting upgrades. We'll be back to check!
@TAMMYD6624967 · Camped on Aug 31, 2023 at Campsite #27
Lake Sherwood is my favorite place. I will continue to camp there. Quiet, relaxing atmosphere.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
