The park could have been beautiful but was not maintained. The grass wasn’t cut. The trails weren’t cleared and bridges rotten. The shower house with flush toilets was shut down. It had been shut down for months. The vault toilets were clean. The dump station didn’t drain wan put sewerage out on the ground through the drain fields.

Loved our site (11). Awesome view of the river. Have a class A and had no.problem extending the slides. Loved it so much that we rebooked the same site for July.

We've stayed at Leith Run multiple times over the last couple years and have never had a bad experience. It's small and peaceful, but if you are on a site close to the river, you do tend to hear traffic noise from Route 2 on the WV side of the river.

Very nice and well kept campground. Camp Host was very friendly. The bathhouse had plenty of very hot water for showers. The only problem is it Doesn’t have Full Hookups, electric only.
