Campgrounds and RV parks near Cameron, WV

Cameron sits in Marshall County along the WV Route 250 corridor, roughly a half hour south of Moundsville and Wheeling and close to the Pennsylvania state line. The surrounding hills of the northern panhandle put RV travelers within easy reach of Ohio River towns, small state parks, and rural private campgrounds. The nearest full-service RV park is Grand Vue Park in Moundsville, which has a newer RV area with 40 full-hookup sites. Just across the state line in southwestern Pennsylvania, Ryerson Station State Park sits in Greene County in the southwestern corner of Pennsylvania, near the West Virginia border, and the 1,164-acre park features a swimming pool, campground, hiking, fishing, picnicking, and winter activities. Closer to Cameron itself, Ernies Acres Campground and Big Gs RV Campground offer smaller, rural options, while Hotel RV West Alexander provides a stopover for travelers coming off I-70. Most sites in the area accommodate mid-size travel trailers and Class C motorhomes. Big-rig owners should confirm site length before booking, as several private campgrounds have back-in-only pads on gravel.

Reservation systems vary by campground type. For Ryerson Station State Park, online reservations for day use and overnight facilities can be made through the Pennsylvania State Parks system or by calling toll-free 888-PA-PARKS (888-727-2757), from 7:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., Monday to Saturday. Reservations must be made 3 days ahead of arrival and can be made up to 11 months in advance, so summer weekends should be locked in early. Private campgrounds like Grand Vue Park, Ernies Acres Campground, Big Gs RV Campground, and Hotel RV West Alexander take direct bookings by phone or through their own websites. For holiday weekends, plan on booking two to three months out and confirming RV length, slide clearance, and hookup amperage at the time of reservation.
