About Romney, West Virginia
Romney anchors Hampshire County with the nation's oldest courthouse west of the Alleghenies. The town buzzes each October during the Apple Butter Festival, where locals stir massive copper kettles over open fires. Anglers cast lines into the South Branch Potomac for native trout, and spelunkers head to Smoke Hole Caverns for limestone wonders just 20 miles north. Civil War reenactors tread the same ground as Stonewall Jackson's troops in the 1861 Battle of Romney.
Wapacoma Campground draws remote workers with reliable WiFi and riverfront calm. Middle Ridge Campground fits families perfectly, showers flowing and 50-amp, 30-amp hookups ready from $41/night. Big Anchor Campground offers solitude for hikers plotting Seneca Rocks ascents or valley drives.

- Middle Ridge Campground provides showers, 50-amp, and 30-amp service from $41/night
