Beaver Lakes Campground LLC.

50 sites · RVs, Tents250 acres · Calvin, WV

Property was owned by my great grandfather , He lost 150 acres in the early 1900's due to a bad debt from neighboring landowner. Was so happy to be able to repurchase the 150 acres back in 2016,now own the original land tract and added more. 250 acres in total. Portions were strip mined around 1978-1982 creating some flat fields and access to all property. I might add that strip mining if done properly can and does enhance the property. Ponds were built to catch runoff and several new animal species moved in waterfowl ,muskrats, and beavers. The beavers have constructed large dams on property further adding to the beauty. Have seen several bald eagles on and around the property.

The best camping near Stonewall Jackson Lake State Park guide

Overview

About

Stonewall Jackson Lake State Park—also known as Stonewall Resort—is a 1,900-acre lakeside park and resort outside of Buckhannon in West Virginia. Its lake was formed as an impoundment on the West Fork River and is surrounded by wooded rolling hills that serve as the setting for hiking and biking trails, plus a disc golf course and a winter ice skating rink. Fishing for bass and crappie is a popular pastime on the lake, and the park offers kayak and pontoon boat rentals to get you on the water. Visitors may be able to spot white-tailed deer, bald eagles, black bears, and bobcats during their adventures. The park’s only campground has 179 tent and RV sites on the banks of the lake, while other overnight options include lakeside cottages and resort rooms.

Tips for snagging a campsite

All Stonewall Jackson Lake campsites are reservable 12 months in advance.
Reservations must be made by calling (304) 269-8889.
Advanced reservations are strongly encouraged for summer visits, especially weekends in June and July and on holiday weekends.

When to go

Summer is the most popular time to visit Stonewall Jackson Lake State Park. Autumn visitors can witness the fall foliage transformation in the forested hills surrounding the lake. The park is open year-round, but some services, such as the marina, close for winter. Low temperatures can dip below freezing from November to March, so winter campers should have cold-weather gear or opt to stay in the resort lodging. Winter visitors should call the campground in advance of their trip at (304) 269-8889 for information on road closures.

Know before you go

For fishing enthusiasts, remember to purchase your WV fishing license online prior to arrival.
Campers can purchase day passes at the park's resort to access its pool, hot tub, and gym. A floating boardwalk on the lake connects the campground to the resort.
In case you don’t bring your own, the park offers bike rentals on-site.
In addition to its campground, the resort offers lodge rooms, lake houses, and cottages, some of which are pet-friendly.
Other resort amenities include a marina (open from spring through October), an Arnold Palmer golf course, a spa, and boat cruises. Fishing charters and wildlife watching tours on the lake are also available.
The resort has three restaurants, but campers can also buy food and groceries in nearby Weston or Buckhannon.
