Trying to arrange camping for a trip to NRG. I have heard good things about Chestnut Creek (and I think (scratch that-- I know) I am far too old for the Roger's crowd Cool), but I am unable to find a phone number for it on the web. Does anyone have it and perhaps know the rates for this year?
Thanks,
Jen

Hi Jen,

http://www.southpoint.com/databases/wvcamp.htm says it is 304-574-3136. If that isn't right, I can look through e-mail from when we stayed there last year.

Laugh A friend of mine calls it Rule Creek for that very reason. Never the less, it's some of the quietest camping in the area.

LOL. Agreed. Chestnut is definitely the quietest, and cleanest campground at the Gorge (and compared to many other areas around the country I have camped at for that matter). It's always my choice when camping at the Gorge.

Climbers may claim that they don't like to follow rules, but that never seems to stop them from staying at Chestnut Creek. The reality is that you need a good nights sleep to be ready for a busy day of defying authority...Sly
