Blue Meadow

Blue Meadow is a unique primitive campground nestled in the heart of the West Virginia mountains at an elevation of 1,983 feet. While primarily designated as a group camping area, it offers a serene escape for those looking to immerse themselves in nature. When not reserved for groups, sites 1-17 are available on a first-come, first-served basis, providing a flexible option for spontaneous travelers seeking a quiet forest retreat.

The terrain is defined by its proximity to the beautiful Anthony Creek, a prime destination for anglers chasing trout and locals looking to cool off in the famous Blue Hole swimming spot. The surrounding area offers rugged beauty, with the Big Draft Wilderness nearby providing ample opportunities for those who enjoy exploring remote forest landscapes and hiking along scenic creek-side trails.

Facilities at this USFS-managed site are rustic and designed for a true back-to-basics experience. Amenities include vault toilets and picnic tables at the sites. Because there are no utility hookups available, this location is best suited for tent campers and self-contained RV travelers who are comfortable with primitive, off-grid camping conditions. Whether you are planning a group outing or a quiet trip into the woods, Blue Meadow serves as a peaceful base camp for outdoor enthusiasts.
