Stayed from 5/1/2021 - 5/8/2021 in Old Orchard spot 33. This is the only section of the park with full hookups, the others have electric only I believe. Park has over 250 spots but they are spread out in different areas. However, only one way in and out. Luckily I left on Saturday, the previous Sunday there was a line to use the dump station and leave. The sites are concrete pads and are a normal size with a gravel area and big fire pits, and some of the spots in other areas of the park looked very spacious. It rained a good amount and the drainage was not great so there was a lot of standing water the whole week. The lake is great for paddling. I can see the park and lake being overcrowded during the summer months. Also, a lot of bad dog owners letting them bark constantly at all hours.
As others have said, the roads around the park are narrow and winding but if you aren't an incompetent driver (don't act like you don't know who you are) you will be fine, just take it slow and don't get lost because there are much much worse roads in the area that you don't want to end up on. About 25 mins from anything significant, so try not to have the need to run out for anything if you can.
Don't think I'd go back as there aren't any attractions in the area and the fishing in the lake was dismal, it was too busy with people coming and going, and the drive there just isn't worth it.
Had great ATT and good TMobile service with the Peplink. Basically no Verizon signal in most of the park.

We live close to Beech Fork, we’ve gone to many state campsites in WV and visiting those makes you appreciate how nice beech fork is. Nice facilities, level campsites with plenty of space and fairly spacious.

To start off the access could use a little improving, wider would be helpful. But have said that this parks seems to say nearly full and there some mighty big rigs in there. This parks has lots to do. It's a great park to walk or ride your bike, there is fishing, they rent kayaks and there are a couple of hikes in the park. There were kids everywhere riding and all kinds of battery operated things. They were having a great time. Defiantly a family orientated park. We drove out of the park and to the right for about 3 miles to get Verizon service.

“Great family campground! ”
Reviewed 6/13/2020
Beech Fork has over 200 campsites, many right on the lake. Four Coves & Lakeview camping areas offer large sites with ample space between sites most with beautiful trees for shade. There are plenty of activities for kids & the lake is great for fishing, boating, kyaking, etc. Great established campground!! One of favorites near home.

Beautiful hills and lake with fall colors. Lots of hiking to do and there are several geocaches in the area. Staff was very friendly and helpful. WiFi was spotty.
