Hello Travelers ,
I ’ d like to start off by welcoming you to Ravenswood , West Virginia . This past decade , we have been on a mission to transform ourselves into the true river town we were meant to be . With millions of dollars in upgrades and investments , our Great Bend Marina & Campground has started to take shape with many more upgrades on the horizon . The first phase of our campgrounds will have an official grand opening in spring 2024 . After spending the day kayaking Sandy Creek , you can relax the rest of the evening at our campgrounds or visit Washington ’ s Riverfront Park and take a tour of the award-winning Great Bend Museum . If that ’ s not enough , you can then take a stroll downtown and enjoy our antique shops , unique restaurants and if you have kids or grandkids with you , stop by and enjoy our newly constructed Veterans ’ Park playground . The possibilities are endless , and we hope you take the time to visit our small , vibrant town . We ’ d love to have you right here in Ravenswood . See you soon !
Sincerely ,
Mayor Josh Miller
