About

Greenwood Point Campground at Lake Moomaw provides a truly remote camping experience in the George Washington National Forest. With no road access, this primitive campground is accessible only by a 3-mile hike from Bolar Mountain Campground or by paddling/boating across the lake from Fortney Branch Boat Launch or Coles Point Day Use Area. The campground features five first-come, first-served wooded campsites that encircle an open grassy common area with scenic lakeside views. This isolated location makes Greenwood Point a popular destination for campers seeking solitude and a backcountry-style experience while still having access to Lake Moomaw's fishing and water activities. Each campsite includes a table, tent pad, and grill. A vault toilet is available, but campers must bring their own water as no potable water is provided. The campground operates year-round at $8 per night, payable to the campground host or at Bolar Mountain Campground before hiking in.
