Secret Spot

Secret Spot at Starry Nights was an amazing property/camp site. The setting was so quiet, beautiful and tranquil. I woke to awesome sounds of a woodpecker on a nearby tree and also heard the awesome sounds of owls and wild turkeys. Brian is an excellent host who goes above and beyond. He provided his site(s) with a nice picnic table, fire ring (there was even wood stacked beside the fire pit when we arrived!) and a very clean and I think recently built out-house. The property is so idyllic and well-maintained. Brian was very good at communicating and providing directions. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend to anyone visiting New River Gorge/Hinton area! The stars are amazing!!! I got an awesome photo of Orion shining brightly above my tent, plus lots of other stars I cannot see back home due to light pollution. Thank you, Brian!

Hidden Valley

This spot is one of the quietest, most private, and serene HipCamp sites we've stayed at! Brian stopped by when we first arrived to answer any questions and give us directions to various sites on the property and the area. I wish we'd have had another day just to explore...but there's always next time! Multiple state parks and New River Gorge National Park and Preserve are all within reasonable distances. Just mind the very narrow roads until you get to the bottom of the hill. Admittedly I was thinking thin and holding my breath while pulling our trailer for a good bit of it! If you plan to stay at this spot...you really should have 4WD. It's steep, and you'll burn through the grass if there's even a hint of moisture.

Field of Dreams

Nice property and easy to find. Close enough to towns and New River Gorge that make the property even better.

Field of Dreams

Could not say enough about how gorgeous this site is. It was so peaceful and a family of blue jays stayed with us. The host was great when we put a request through to change days. The site was very easy to find with google maps and SO isolated. A herd of cows was nearby which I loved. The outhouse was perfectly clean as well. If we are in the area again, we would come back without hesitation.
