Facility Overview

Branchland Park is a designated rural location situated along the McClellan Highway (Route 10) in the unincorporated community of Branchland, WV. It is important to note that this is not a commercial multi-level parking garage or a high-capacity urban facility. The area is characterized by rural landscapes, rolling hills, and local community infrastructure. Visitors should expect a casual, open-air environment rather than structured parking decks. The site is accessible to standard passenger vehicles, SUVs, and pickup trucks, though drivers of high-roof vans or commercial trailers should exercise caution due to the rural nature of the roads and potential limitations in turnaround space.
