Lake-In-Wood Campground

Parkesburg

We stayed here in the early summer. the indoor pool was open and nice and we played mini golf with our son. staff was friendly and so were seasonal campers. WE happen to run into my husbands coworkers that were camping. We had our gsd and people were friendly with him and babies loved him. the lake was fun and the store had ice cream and is well stocked. the fireplace and gazebo are very nice. overall clean well taken care of and fun things to do.

great place for kids and family

Well cared for campground, we rented a cabin which was small but very clean upon arrival. They have limited utensils, no soap or toilet paper and other small things so bring everything you will need. The cabins were pretty expensive for what you get ie. you  have to pay for putt put golf, paddleboats, and everything else besides your cabin rental. Cafe was closed every day we were there and children's activities were limited to Thursday, Friday and Saturday only. I'm sure at one time this was a happening place. Shame it's such a beautiful campground and the 6 acres lake has enough fish to catch , we caught bream, catfish and bass! The pool was nice but almost not useable because of the small pebble skirting around it that felt like tacks going into your feet every time you walked on it, OUCH! Get a golf cart, $60 daily to get around as it is 200 acres! Friendly staff, excellent! Tv didn't work first two days. Limited cell phone use as it is pretty rural. Overall a good time for the 4 days we were there, it's a shame most things were closed due to not getting help to work. 50/50 chance we would return.

late summer get-away

We were able to reserve a tent/popup site just a couple days before the trip and got a beautiful roomy site next to the lake.  Very quiet and the activities are great.  The pool area was fun but edged in paths that had sharp pebbles - keep your flip flops on!

Very nice campground

Stayed in the caboose for two days, there were ants swarming over kitchen counter. Had to put food in fridge whole time we were there (we saw just before we checked in that a previous camper had a concern over the ants.) Tolerable for short stay, but any longer would have been intolerable, especially for amount of money we were paying. We wound up NOT using any of the provided dishes and utensils in the drawers as the ants were on the drawers as well. We realize its the outdoors and cabooses weren't originally made for year-round living, however, we see other campgrounds with cabooses and wondering if they have similar problems. Ant traps are for sale in the campground shop; we were also wondering why they weren't placed in the caboose in the first place.

Otherwise, we had an enjoyable stay. Kid enjoyed the pool. Wi-fi was adequate for my smart phone. Clean campground, plenty of garbage cans as well as dumpsters. If you need groceries, get them before you come here - there's stores in Morgantown, about a 20 minute drive.

Good stay, but beware of ants

This was always called Lake in Wood and has always been a great well kept campgrounds. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is that it has a very poor dog run( if you want to call it that).  It is very small and always wet, in the summer you get eaten by 🪰.  We have been going there for 20 years and it has always been enjoyable, Sun has been keeping it well kept, and have done replacement signage internally which looks very nice.  The sites are very nice with many of them having concrete pads.  They have some very interesting rental cabins along with the more standard ones. There is a very nice pool and restaurant on-site. If you are looking for a nice weekend camping trip this is one to book.  They book up very quickly and far in advance.

Great weekend campgrounds. 

We had to cancel our reservations because of a vehicle breakdown, and called as soon as we knew we wouldn't be able to keep our dates. We were assured we would get a full refund because of having called early, and in our distress over having to cut our trip short, didn't realize that the refund wasn't issued. When we spoke with Kim today, she accused us of lying about having cancelled our reservations, and refused to honor the full refund. So, we will never stay here on our future trips, and want to warn others to be careful to document if you should have to cancel a trip.

Reservations

What a wonderful place to spend quality time with the family!  We rented multiple cabins and a red carpet RV site in late July.  Golf carts are worth spending a little extra to see and enjoy the entire resort.  Lots of fishing and kayaking on the lake and swimming in the indoor/outdoor pool.  The Gnome Cafe was such a treat, hardly cooked because the Ladies cooked such awesome food!  The horseshoe pit area was so enchanting. It will forever be known as the Secret Garden because our Grandchildren believe fairies live there.  We loved every moment at Lake In Wood and can't wait to go back!

Great Family Vacation 2021

This was the cleanest campground we have ever been to! They take such good care of the grounds. The place is huge! We stayed in the DC Cabin and it was perfect for my husband and I. My sister and brother-in-law had a RV site that was perfect, my nephew and his children stayed in the gnome home, and my other nephew, his wife, and 4 children stayed at the lake view cabin. They were all wonderful! We stayed Saturday thru Thursday…. If u are going with children I would suggest you be there  for a Thursday Friday and Saturday, that’s when they have activities for the kids.breakfast at the gnome cafe was delicious and inexpensive.we are already planning to return next summer! Absolutely recommend renting a golf cart!!

Clean and well taken care of

We came here to celebrate my sons 5th birthday. WE HAD AN AMAZING TIME!!! Everything was so very clean! We swam, made s'mores, ate ice cream, trapped lightening bugs, and had the opportunity to attend Sunday service. I would recommend going to this resort! I cannot wait to come back. The staff were helpful and kind. 

AMAZING STAY

Just got back from a wonderful weekend getaway at LIW. We are in South Jersey and even with traffic it took us 90 minutes to get there - not too bad! We stopped at Stampede BBQ beforehand for lunch - excellent food. We still had time to kill so we also visited Green Dragon flea market (open only on Fridays, mix of indoor and outdoor vendors) which was a neat experience. 

Check in was great, now you just pull up to the gate and they have attendants who provide you your keys and info packet without needing to leave the car. We rented a golf cart, which was already waiting for us at our cabin. Note the property is quite expansive and hilly, you will probably want one, especially if you have a site near Brotherhood circle. 

Accommodations were great. We stayed in Eagles Nest, which is a modern cabin with AC, full kitchen, screened in porch, and bathroom. The unit was clean and inviting. Ceiling fans throughout too! A newer flat screen TV in the living room and master. 

We had great weather and took advantage of the pool. We also painted ceramics, played bingo, played mini golf, and enjoyed the drive-in (golf cart) movie. All but the movie was an additional cost of a few dollars. We decided not to bring a lot of food so we had a few meals at the Gnome cafe. Breakfasts were hearty and my hubby and I split ours each morning. Reasonable, quick, yummy. You can save $ and bring coffee or water. 

Aside from linens and towels, you may also wish to bring: dish soap, trash bags, cooking oil, tongs for the grill, salt and pepper, sponge for dish washing, dish towel, paper towels. Toilet paper was provided. 

We had a minor issue with the AC but a maintenance person came right out and fixed it quickly for us. We were very pleased with the service. 

Accommodations were $216/nt, golf cart $60/nt. Not the cheapest but definitely worth it for the quality and amenities.
