Tea Creek Campground

My husband and I spent 4 days and 3 nights tent camping at the Tea Creek Campground dispersed camping spots. The trails, campground, and surrounding areas are really well-maintained, well marked with signs, and clean. Campground has several reasonably clean vault style toilets which were all stocked with toilet paper. Each camp site included a picnic table and fire drum/pit with attached grill. Th... My husband and I spent 4 days and 3 nights tent camping at the Tea Creek Campground dispersed camping spots. The trails, campground, and surrounding areas are really well-maintained, well marked with signs, and clean. Campground has several reasonably clean vault style toilets which were all stocked with toilet paper. Each camp site included a picnic table and fire drum/pit with attached grill. There’s also a few manual water pumps in the campground with fresh creek water — we filled our water bottles every day and thought it tasted great. Dispersed campsites are $10 a night, and the fees pay for trash services, maintenance, etc. Dispersed camping spots weren’t quite “dispersed” enough for our liking. A family and their kids moved in a few spots (100 yards) down and their music and yelling echoed through the entire campground. Overall, though, we had a great experience. We went in late October and the leaves were just past peak. A park officer told us the week of October 10th is the best time to go for fall colors. There are a few trailheads attached directly to the Tea Creek campground, and several more within a 5 to 10 minute drive. (We recommend Red Spruce Knob trail, about a five minute drive down the Scenic Highway. Highest peak in the area, and a really beautiful hour-long hike.) Plenty of signs in the Monongahela National Forest area, and very easy to navigate. We will visit here again!

Site 11; I spent the weekend in Site 11 along the Williams River. The site was spacious enough for two vehicles and two large tents, had a picnic table, a round fire pit, a restroom on the grounds, and a bear proof trash can near the entry to the site. A small trail could be used to drop down to water level, and another extended into the next camp, though it was not visible from the site I was i...

The only complaint I have is that the instructions on now to pay for the site were vague.
