BARK CAMP RECREATION AREA WILL REOPEN IN 2021

Bark Camp recreation area is set to reopen in 2021 following repairs. Bark Camp, in Coeburn, has been closed for almost two years due to water system failure but work is now underway to get the area back up and running. The new system is being installed and visitors can expect intermittent closures to day-use area, but the actual campsite is expected to re-open early next year once work is complete. The cost to replace the system is just over $215,000 and was all made possible through park fees from visitors to the Washington and Jefferson National Forests. Trails are being maintained and bridges are being repaired at this time as well, so that the campsite will return better than before.
