Hatchet Campground

Mamie D. Barger

This campground is close to Kanawha Falls, Hawk's Nest, New River Bridge, The Mystery Hole (fun local attraction), Beckley Exhibition Mine. The campground is located on the New River. All spots with the exception of the rustic tent sites offer full hook up, wifi, has picnic table and fire pit. I will admit that the river sites we were in were tight for a bigger rig to get into. They had trees at the front of the sites that made backing into spots a challenge but once in were great. They did have some sites that would be easier for a larger rig to get into and when we go back would request those for sure. So cons would be a little tight for large rigs and that the non river sites are on the road side. Pros...beautiful river views, fishing, kayaking, close to area attractions, wifi, full hook up. They also offer firewood and propane, and have a laundry facility as well as a bathhouse (we did not visit so cannot review that). They do have a boat launch and a playground but my daughter wasn't super impressed with that. Prices are $31 daily/$175 weekly/$510 monthly for back sites and $34 daily/$190 weekly/$550 monthly for river sites. They also stated sites are equipped for cold weather for those interested in ice fishing. - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group
