Come to the Southern Gateway of the New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. Serenity with the sound of the falls. I have a beautiful spot on the New River at the top of Brooks Falls that we call “Rock Bottom”. Electricity, coffee pot, a grill and a sink may be available - just ask!. You will have access to a private toilet as well.
Teeya's campsite offers a scenic location right by the New River, with easy access to national parks and state parks, making it a great base for exploring the area. The site provides basic amenities, including a shack with cots, a shared bathroom, and a beautiful river view. Some guests appreciate the host's hospitality and the peaceful surroundings. However, others have noted concerns about privacy due to security cameras and occasional noise from passing trains.
The post is very misleading. What you don’t realize is that you are driving through a semi sketchy street and pull up to what looks to me an uncared for/abandoned home with several other homes surrounding it. There are security cameras EVERYWHERE. It feels like you have ZERO privacy. I felt very uncomfortable staying here and I wasn’t even alone. I would have packed up and left if there were other places available but being in the area for a festival left little vacancy anywhere for a decent price. I had asked the host prior to booking if this was in the backyard of a home and they said no it was a shed used for storage. I feel very mislead by this. I would NEVER have booked this site if I had known there was absolutely zero privacy and it was in the middle of a residential road.
Also bring headphones/earplugs there is a train that constantly drives through.
The host showed up randomly at 9pm. We were not notified ahead of time that she was going to drop by. I had to ask where the bathroom was since it was not told ahead of time.
It was a gorgeous spot with a beautiful view of the river, the shack was quiet and very warm inside with the heater they had running. I can definitely say I was not cold while sleeping. My biggest complaint was the bugs but it’s the outdoors, what are you gonna do about bugs? All in all I had a nice time and it was a lovely spot.
Hinton is a hidden gem, and this spot is the perfect place to take in the area's natural beauty. The shack is surprisingly cozy and has everything you'd need, and its location close to Hinton and Bluestone State Park make it a great jumping off point for all the region has to offer. Highly recommend.
The views at this location were lovely. It was also extremely close to the New River Gorge NP, which was our destination. We also appreciated having access to a toilet, shower, and electricity.
The shack was what is expected. The set up is odd and a little confusing and had other guests set up tent very clise to the shack making the outside space unavailable to us.
Loved our night. Woke up with stunning views all around! Such a gorgeous site.
