Little Beaver Dam is a historic dam located in the park, near Crow. It was built between 1938 and 1942, as a federally supported project of the Works Progress Administration and Civilian Conservation Corps. The dam measures 400 feet long and 29 feet high and is faced with rough chiseled sandstone.[3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
Originally a day-use facility, Little Beaver received a 46-site campground in 2011. 30 sites, opened on July 1 of that year, have electric and water hookups with an additional 16 water-only sites planned to open later in the year.[4]
Accessibility for the disabled was assessed by West Virginia University. The 2005 assessment found the park to be accessible.[5]
