While staying at Doddridge County Park in West Virginia, we steamed down the Ohio River on the Island Belle Sternwheeler ship to Blennerhassett’s Island. The Island and the historic mansion are part of the amazing West Virginia State Park system.

Doddridge County Park in West Union, WV is a gem of a campground. It features spacious sites with full hookups at very reasonable prices. They also have a large community area, good and free wifi, laundry facilities, and even yurts to rent.

After his fatal duel with Alexander Hamilton, Aaron Burr fled west and met Harmon Blennerhassett. Burr and Blennerhassett used the island as a staging ground to train an army with plans to invade Mexico and claim the Western Territories as a new country with Burr as Emperor!
