About This Home
10+ Year Established Income-Producing Campground 15 Minutes from the New River Gorge Bridge! Offered for sale is a well-established, turn-key campground investment situated on nearly 6 acres with over 250 feet of road frontage, just 15 minutes from the iconic New River Gorge Bridge. The property benefits from excellent access, visibility, and proximity to one of the East Coast's premier outdoor recreation destinations, including world-class whitewater rafting, rock climbing, kayaking, hiking, biking, and birding, to name a few. The campground offers a diverse and proven mix of income-producing accommodations designed to appeal to a broad guest base. Improvements include 3 two-bedroom, 1 bath, cabins, providing durability and comfort, along with 5 premium full-hookup RV sites, all equipped with 30-50-amp electric, water, and septic. Additionally, the property features 18 tent sites, a group shelter house, and a dedicated shower house, making it well-suited for families, reunions, retreats, and organized group bookings. A major operational asset is the three-bedroom, one-bath resident manager's home, which also serves as the campground's laundry facility. The current full-time on-site property manager wishes to remain and oversees day-to-day operations including reservations, guest relations, cleaning, landscaping, and coordination of professional maintenance and repairs, allowing for minimal hands-on involvement by ownership. The campground is commercially zoned for multi-use and supported by three septic systems, offering flexibility for continued operation and potential future expansion. A licensed food service kitchen with an adjacent covered dining area and convenient pickup window provides an additional revenue stream and enhances the guest experience. This property has been operated continuously by multiple owners since the 1980s, with the current owner maintaining stewardship for the past 10 years and investing in consistent annual improvements. Most notably, 2025 peak-season occupancy reached 73%, with 52% occupancy during the off-season, supported by strong branding and visibility across Airbnb, a dedicated website, online camping platforms, and active social media channels. With established infrastructure, strong cash-flow performance, professional on-site management, and a prime location near the New River Gorge, this campground represents an exceptional opportunity for investors seeking a stable, scalable, and lifestyle-friendly hospitality asset.
