West Virginia opens glamping reservations at four state parks

Summarised from 2 outlets · 3 reports · Updated 14 Nov, 19:31 · Archive

West Virginia has opened reservations for 32 new glamping accommodations across four state parks for the 2027 season.

Governor Patrick Morrisey announced that reservations are open for 32 new glamping accommodations across four West Virginia state parks: Blackwater Falls, Lost River, Pipestem and Summersville Lake. The 2027 season runs from April 1 through November 30. Glamping combines the outdoor camping experience with modern comforts and hotel-style amenities.

The canvas-style accommodations have furnished interiors, comfortable beds, seating, lighting and outdoor gathering spaces. They include mini-fridges, mini-split heating and air conditioning units, coffee makers and electrical outlets. The sites sleep between two and six people, allowing visitors to enjoy camping without needing to purchase or bring camping gear.

The project is a public-private partnership between the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources and Out & West, LLC, a West Virginia company based in Lewisburg. Out & West is providing the investment to construct, operate and maintain the accommodations, whilst the state retains ownership and oversight of the parks and receives revenue to support park operations. Morrisey said the partnership expands lodging options and attracts more visitors without requiring taxpayer funding for construction.

Guests can make reservations at wvstateparks.com and wvglamping.com.
