Big Rock campground is the first campground along the National Forest road. It has limited spots but is very close to Spruce Knob ponds, the river, and popular hang out and cookout area Woodbine. Spots are limited and fill very quickly when warmer weather arrives. Down further from Big Rock is the larger camp area of Cranberry. It sits right along the river and has many access to the river for fishing and swimming. The camp also hosts a number of old trails that familes can walk to different parts of the camp or to small historical like sites from when the camp was first built. The camps is also at the begining of the Backcountry Wilderness Road which goes from the camp all the way to America's beautiful Cranberry Glades in Pocahontas County. The Backcountry is open to horse back riders, bikers, and walkers alike. During the fall season the road is opened to tourists to drive in their cars to take numerous pictures of the glorious colors of fall West Virginia has to offer. Overlooking both camps sites is Spruce Knob which is in very close accomidation to Cowen and Richwood. The site hosts a few fishing ponds as well as close proximity to Williams River which is a nice dipping river for the summer. The camp is quiet large and is sparse during the summer months as many take refuge further away and closer to the river you can swim and fish in.
