  • I have been going to Rocky Gap State park for over 20 years and love it. There is both tent and cabin camping available but sites go quickly. You have a mountain trails you can take and a huge lake...

  • Stopped for a picnic and bathroom break while passing through from Pittsburgh to Wilmington. Gorgeous, gorgeous little slice of nature. Makes sense why settlers colonized the place. Very dog friendly....  more

  • Nice and beautiful state park. The lake Habeeb is also nice. This can be a very relaxing place after a long week. There are few nice trails, very easy to explore for all ages. It's a great place to spend with family and friends. There are lots of parking spots, so you won't have to worry about it as well.
  • Perfect when staying at the hotel. I walked around the entire lake without having to enter my car. Plenty to look at and take pictures of in the park. The next time I come I’m going to hike a different trail to see what else there is to see. Perfect place for bird watching. I highly recommend coming here even just for the day to walk in the woods.
  • First time here and we had a great time. Spent 3 nights in a tent with an electrical hookup for 90$ total. The Camp Host was very friendly and hand delivers your firewood for 7$ a bundle. We came here to celebrate New Years Eve and didn't know the nearby casino did fireworks so we were pleasantly surprised by that. The trails are really nice and not too challenging. We will definitely be coming back for some weekend getaways.
  • Visited this place last weekend. The hill was covered with brilliant fall foliage colors. The lake was calm like a mirror reflecting the colors. It was a sunny day with a cool breeze. The park has enough benches and grills for friends' gatherings and picnics. Definitely a good place to relax in the fall season.
  • Absolutely amazing place! Has 3 beaches for swimming. There is also boating, kayaking, and excellent bass, trout, and panfish fishing. Great, well maintained and beautiful hiking trails. Excellent campgrounds and a resort with a casino. Fun for the whole family, get out and experience the great outdoors!
