Open from April through October, our 8-acre campground is located on the banks of the Greenbrier River with tree-lined RV sites, wooded riverside tent camping, and rentals that include four comfortable, fully-equipped cabins, a vintage Airstream and a 1964 Shasta. Our guests have access to a thousand feet of riverfront for great fishing and one of the best swimming holes on the river.
We also offer full-service tubing, kayak, and canoe trips in the very heart of the best paddling waters on the Greenbrier. There's Class I thru Class III action for all levels of paddling skill. Established in 1989, we take special pride in being "First on the River". We're only 15 minutes from downtown Lewisburg and just 19 miles from White Sulphur Springs.
