That's cause the New River Gorge is not a town, it's a National Park.
The closest town to the park headquarters is Fayetteville, WV.  In the
gorge, there are no places to camp, at least with a Vanagon or other
vehicle, but there is a great whitewater river there.  There are
plenty of campgrounds in the area on the plateau above the gorge.
Most of them are affiliated with a whitewater rafting company, but you
don't have to raft to camp.  But if you're there, why not ?  The New
River is running at a pretty decent level right now.

I don't know anything about the LIMBO event though.
