Discover Coopers Rock State Forest RV rentals for memorable road trips
As the story goes, a fugitive from the law hid in this part of West Virginia among the rock outcrops in the late 1800s. Before he went on the lam, he was a cooper, which is a barrel maker. To create a source of income so that he could purchase food and other supplies, he resumed making barrels and sold them to nearby communities. And that is the apparent origin of the park’s name, Coopers Rock State Forest.

The Great Outdoors
Coopers Rock State Forest sprawls across a little over 12,700 acres of mountains, valleys, and forests. Bordering Cheat River, there are several outcroppings with excellent views of the river down below, as well as the valley and other mountain ridges. Coopers Rock State Forest has around 50 miles of hiking trails, and save for the offshoots that climb to the outcropping summits, most of the trails are relatively gentle and level. Cushioned by generations of fallen leaves, hikers are rarely footsore at the end of a long day of roaming the deep, lush woods. In winter, when snow descends upon the region and transforms it into a magical winter wonderland, these trails are open to cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, though be aware that they are not groomed.
Camping at Coopers Rock State Forest
Rent an RV and skip enduring noisy neighbors in a hotel. Instead, enjoy the sounds of nature. Birdsong in the trees. The gurgle of Cheat River nearby. RV camp at McCollum Camping Area and achieve this dream. McCollum Camping Area has 25 sites that are shaded by tall oak and maple trees. All sites have electric hookups. Though there are no water or sewer hookups, the restrooms have flush toilets and hot showers. Wifi also is available.
Exploring the Area

Drop off and pick up was a breeze. Jesse gave us a quick run down of the van and it was all we needed for a two night camping trip!
