About Lake Sherwood
Overview
Lake Sherwood Recreation Area is a complete family destination offering a wide variety of activities and camping options. Standard, tent-only and group camping facilities are perched along Lake Sherwood, the largest lake in the Monongahela National Forest.
Swimming beaches, a picnic area, boat ramp and several hiking trails are among the features of the area.
Recreation
Anglers seek tiger muskie, channel catfish, bullhead, bluegill and largemouth bass. Boating is a big draw as well.

Each campsite has a parking spur, tent pad, picnic table, fire ring and lantern post. Showers are accessible.
All camping areas are served by restrooms with running water, flush toilets, hot showers and electricity (available during the summer season only). In the spring and fall, vault toilets and a hand pump well are available.
The parking aprons are gravel and some are up to 20 feet wide. No electrical, sewage or water hook-ups are available, but there is a dump station on-site.
Other amenities include a playground, picnic shelters and volleyball courts.

FAQ
How do I get a reservation at Lake Sherwood?
Campsite Sniper's current snapshot shows none of the 16,245 tracked site-dates open for online reservation at Lake Sherwood. That can mean dates are reserved, closed, not yet released, or offered first-come, first-served rather than online. Pick a site or unit on the map to see its calendar, or set a free Campsite Sniper alert. You complete the reservation yourself on Recreation.gov.
Does Campsite Sniper book this facility for me?
No. Campsite Sniper sends alerts and direct Recreation.gov links. It never books, pays for, holds, hoards, or resells reservations.
How current is this availability data?
Campsite Sniper re-checks public Recreation.gov availability for this facility every hour and republishes whenever anything changes. This facility's data last changed at Sep 18, 2026 16:19 UTC; an older timestamp means nothing has changed since that time, not that checking stopped. Always confirm final availability on Recreation.gov when you book.
Which sites at Lake Sherwood fit a 35-foot RV?
27 of the 106 sites that support RV analysis have a recorded maximum of 35 ft or more; the longest recorded is 55 ft. 102 of those 106 sites have a recorded maximum length and 4 do not; they are not counted as fitting.
Does Lake Sherwood have online availability right now?
As of the Sep 18, 2026 snapshot, none of the 16,245 tracked site-dates are open for online reservation. That can mean dates are reserved, closed, not yet released, or offered first-come, first-served rather than online. A free Campsite Sniper alert tells you if any date opens online.
