For Windrock, if you are just going there to run the trails you should go to the general store. It is right at the main park entrance and right across the street from the large parking area. Only go to the campgrounds if you are camping or renting one of their cabins.

I've been to Gasline Motorsports a couple of times on quads (buddy lives close). We rode all of the trails in maybe an hour. Lots of big mud holes if you are into that, an actual mud bog/pit that has mud races, and dirt drag strip. Very little challenging trail obstacles. Wasn't a bad time but more of a hang-out type of place and slightly entertaining to watch the mud bog races and dirt drags, then watch some big trucks play in the mud. Also had a live band play one night. Buddy lives 30 minutes away and hasn't been there in years because he is more of a trail rider.

Powerline Park is another place in St. Clairsville, OH (not far off I-70 just before you get to Wheeling, WV. http://www.powerlinepark.com/
Been there a couple of times on quads also (again, buddy lives out that way). I would never go back on a holiday weekend as the place is packed with drunks acting stupid....basically a huge party. The park actually has some potential if you like trail riding on quads or SxS. Most people were hanging out at the mud holes watching the big trucks play in the mud but we went out riding the trails and spent several hours riding and only saw a few people out in the woods. Not a lot of challenging spots but a few spots were a little interesting. Probably wouldn't be bad to go on one of there SxS/ATV specific rides but doubt I would drive that far for it.
