Campsite: Four Coves Campground — Beech Fork State Park

Our goto local campground. We've been camping here for about 9 years now, beautiful place, great layout, nice lake, spacious sites. We love coming here and it is close to our house. Reservations are easy but usually booked way in advance and have noticed while there, the sites that were supposed to of been full, sit empty all weekend. This is bc people book them too early and then cannot go for whatever reason. There should be some sort of confirmation and release if not going to be occupied. Another complaint is the pool prices for campers are the same for the public. I feel like we should get something for staying here as we are paying an extremely high price to camp. Which brings me to my biggest complaint. As others have stated, I would have no problem paying the major increase in cost if the park actually put money back into it. In close to 10 years there has been water added to some of the sites in Moxley, and a disc golf course added which is rarely used. The wifi is only at Old Orchard and if you have Verizon, forget about a signal. AT&T works well throughout the entire park though. Not a huge deal as we like to come here to unplug but nice to have. I feel like for the amount that it has increased, there should be water throughout the campground and improvements made to the very lacking Marina and playgrounds. Electric only sites in 4 Coves are $50/ night now compared to $30 just a few years ago and some sites with water or full hookups are $60. They are definitely the highest around even though we love it here. We have camped at the Outer Banks with oceanfront access for less than that.

We will continue to go but will not be happy until changes are made.
