A Rustic Ravine Cabin Adventure

26 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents400 acres · Genoa, WV

West Virginia’s Coolest, Newest, Vacation Cabin Rental and Hip Camping Resort! The idea for creating a cabin rental/camping vacation getaway in the Allegheny Mountain Range came to life over several meetings at a Bob Evans restaurant in Columbus, Ohio, between co-owners Paul and Christy Liimatta and Joe Boffo. Joe had been accumulating land in the Genoa, West Virginia, area for several years and had dreamed of building cabins, tree houses and uniquely designed vacation rentals and campsites on a beautiful area called Hampton Ridge. Come and judge for yourself ;)

5 Leaf Farm

5 sites · Lodging100 acres · Walton, WV

This area was known by the Native Americans as "Pocatalico" (land of the fat doe), and first settled by Europeans around 1890. The property itself was first settled by a man named Mayford Jones, who set the first stones here around 1910. A Jenny Lynn style farmhouse was built and the property was known as one of the best developed farms in the area. Today, the forest has returned to what was once pasture land on the majority of the 100 acre plot, and a small but intensive sustainable forest farm has been taking shape since 2013 under the current host and occupant, who prefers the term "steward" rather than "owner".

The best camping near Beech Fork State Park guide

Overview

About

Along the banks of the Beech Fork Lake, Beech Fork State Park is a secluded getaway surprisingly convenient to anyone in the tri-state area of West Virginia, Kentucky, and Ohio. Just ten miles off the interstate, locals flock to the beach here and out-of-towners take their pick of over 200 campsites in four campgrounds. The Beech Fork Lake Marina in the center of the park is privately owned, and rents out paddle boats if you wanna go Flinstone’s style (they also have canoes and pontoons). Sporty folks will love the wide variety of athletic fields here (volleyball, tennis, basketball, and softball), while the animal lovers can check out frogs, toads, raptors, deer, fox, and songbirds at the Beech Fork Lake Wildlife Management Area. In the surrounding towns, you’ll find plenty of mini golf parks, a public gun range, the Milton Flea Market, and Heritage Farms, an Appalachian village replica with museum, school, and old-fashioned merchants.
