A great place to camp is Chestnut Creek Campground (304) 574-3136. The rates are high (about $8.00 - $12.00, I can't remember), but they have a great shower house and the camp sites are compleatly wooded.
For climbing:

The endless: Just like the name, endless climbing.
Beauty Mountain: The Brain for sport, great trad - Super crack 5.9****
Sumersville:Very scenic -only concentration of moderate sport - crowded.
Bridge crags: Great place to climb during rainy days.

If you go, It's definatly worth getting a guide book. There is a local climbing shop downtown Fayettville that can also give great tips on where to go.
