Stuart Recreation Area - Monongahela National Forest
Out of all the WV and Ohio State Parks I have vacationed at. Stuart's is the best. Stuart's is a very clean state of the art camping facility. My favorite part of Stuarts was the fact there was gravel at every campsite so on those rainy days you were not fighting mud! I camp here at least 2 or three times a year and will come back here every year!...

The large and very clean Bath House is one of the best in the state! We have received rave reviews about it.
