All the campsites At Austin Lake are nice and pretty level. However, it's a pretty steep grade to get down to the lake and campground. It's about 2 miles down, But it is so beautiful once you are there. We prefer the Red Carpet site along the creek. The Red Carpet sites have beautiful brick fire pits and concrete pads. I have pictures but I don't know how to attach them here. The owner goes out of his way to make everyone happy. He lives on site in a house on the hill so if anything needs attention he's right on it. I wish we lived closer so we could go more often. But it's the only place we stay when we are in the area visiting family. You may also want to check out the Mountaineer Race track (Wv side of the Ohio River.) it's not too far from the Lake.
