A bit of a mixed bag for me at Cunningham Falls…read more.. I was excited to find a listing of parks that supposedly had wheelchair accessible trails. I've never been to Cunningham Falls before and the idea of seeing a waterfall seemed lovely. However, the accessible boardwalk has strips on pretty much everything board which made me feel like I was riding a very angry horse. Each bump shot pain up my spine. I'm writing this a day later and I still hurt, and I think I'm a pretty tough chick... and the view of the falls was mostly blocked and not worth the actual pain. The Falls is more like a small stream of water that splashes down some rocks. It's a soothing noise but I was expecting something more grandiose... I suppose I could blame climate change. Most of the old stream beds are dry. We also checked out the "south beach" which I enjoyed. There's plenty of pavement, and packed gravel. I couldn't get close to the water, but that's okay because it was a sunny day and I prefer to stick to the shade. I was impressed by the fact that every picnic table has a grill nearby. If I lived closer I'd like to think I'd come to the south beach often, hide in the trees near the river, grill something delicious... but I was a several hours long trip from Dundalk, so it's unlikely that I'll return. It was a nice day-trip though. I don't regret going.

Service: staff in the visitors' center are friendly and knowledgeable. Value: you cannot put a price tag on your love of nature and experience of outdoors. Parking: there is no issue to find parkings inside the park, just depending on how far you are willing to walk. Beautiful park, highly recommend.

Visited Greenbrier State Park this summer and had plenty of fun in the sun! My family and I went on…read morea weekday and it was fairly busy (but of course I can't imagine how much busier it would be on weekends, let alone holiday weekends). I think families with young kids (or even new swimmers) really appreciate the "beach" area because the water level doesn't exceed 5.5 feet (swimming vests are encouraged). There are life guards present as well. There are spacious bathrooms available for use a short walk up from the water and have changing rooms in addition to shower areas as well. The bathrooms were clean as well as the changing rooms, but there was a lot of standing water in areas. I'd definitely recommend walking carefully. Bring a picnic and come early if you plan on getting a grill. Those were all taken even on the weekday we went.

We chose this campground expecting a family-friendly environment for Easter weekend, but…read moreunfortunately our experience was significantly impacted by repeated disturbances from a group of adults in nearby campsites. There was excessive screaming, loud music, and disruptive behavior that continued well past midnight, making it extremely difficult for families and young children to enjoy the holiday weekend. Even more concerning was the apparent lack of response to enforce quiet hours or address the ongoing noise issue. This does not reflect the family atmosphere many guests would reasonably expect during a holiday weekend. I strongly encourage management to take these complaints seriously and enforce campground rules consistently to ensure all guests can enjoy their stay. Families considering visiting during Easter weekend should be aware that this has been an ongoing issue.

Sitting atop the the Cacapon Mountains of West Virginia is a tucked away but easy to find respite that features exclusive mountain views, deciduous beauty, well marked trails, and recreation for kids, couples, and the solo traveler. I personally have enjoyed huge and manicured tent sights....camper and RV hook ups....and lodge-style cabins with cable, internet, and streaming services. Want the woods to rock you to sleep? Done. Want to drift off in a queen bed to your favorite binge show? Done. Want a lodge with a game room for the kids next to a fully stocked library with lounge chairs and wifi? Done!

From the owner: 35 tent and RV sites with electric and water hookups.

Activities include: hiking trails and mountain biking trails (intermediate), horseshoe pits, pool table, redneck golf, and many more outdoor and indoor games. Go fishing in our stocked pond (catch and release) and check out our Koi Pond. We also have a reading room and library for those who want to sit near the fire and read or work on a puzzle or two. For our tent campers, we feature flush toilets, hot showers, and a laundry room available 24 hours a day. We are open all year round, however during the freezing winter months, water will only be on at the main lodge and at a couple of frost-free hand washing stations. Our dump station, showers, laundry room, flush toilets, and hot showers are always open. This location is excellent for weddings, family reunions, and other events. Our main lodge includes a pool and game room, camp store with antiques, beverages, TVs, and free Wifi. Note: Wifi is not available throughout the campground. Pets must be on a leash at all times. Tent camping starts at $30 and RV at $47 per night.

Make sure when visiting the campgrounds that you have a lantern available as the units are significantly darker than you might expect. Magnolia was very clean on the interior. At the exterior, the landscape slopes toward the cottage more than we thought was comfortable. The showers and dishwashing facilities were in good condition. This region generally has quite a few different attractions for nature lovers including a long hike along the Appalachian trail nearby and proximity to quaint small towns. Last, but definitely not least, Nick and his partner were among the most accommodating and friendly hosts one could ask for. When we had difficulty setting a campfire they generously gifted us some leftover materials to start our fire and advised us on best practices! We recommend that anyone interested in having a weekend away in nature investigate the Treehouse camp!

I came through here, just as a one night stay over at a gravel RV pull through site, because my…read moretrip home was too far of a drive, and I did not want to drive during the night anyways. No issues with the late check in. The paperwork and site location was ready for my arrival. The biggest issue for me, my site was conveniently located right next to the campground dump station. On a breezy and temperate Maryland evening, I was hoping to enjoy a fire, but the breeze filled the air with the aromas of everyone's poop (literally), so that was a hard pass for me. I was hoping to sleep in a bit, get some work done before I leave, and when I requested a late check out, it wasn't available. There are three open sites next to me that I'm looking at as I type this message, and I find it very hard to believe that someone paid a fee to reserve this specific site right next to the dump station. Or, perhaps, Monday is a high volume check in day at this location. Either way, from my view, there was zero effort to accommodate the demanding request I made to stay an additional two hours at this location. Next time I pass through this way, I'll either pass this KOA and find the next closest campground, or this experience has motivated me to try Pilot/Loves parking for 1/4 the cost of what I paid to stay here. They have dump stations there, and I'm sure they won't stick me literally right next to it.

The camp host was very active throughout the day and gave great local recommendations. Negatives - you can't really see the river due to the grass and trees. It also says you can fish, which you can as long as you can make it down an incredibly steep embankment but there was not really a place to stand comfortably to fish and at least at site 5 there are quite a bit of rocks in the way. There was also a ton of little moths and gnats. Even with a fire the bugs made it unbearable to enjoy our time. Setting up and packing up was horrible. We understand bugs exist in nature but they were flying in our hair, mouth, nose, nothing worked to get rid of them. Also, the camp sites are just yards from a somewhat busy road. A few times people drove by and purposefully rev'd their engines. We could also hear a train in the distance going in the middle of the night. Maybe a different time of year would make all the difference regarding the annoying bugs but may is not it.
