Scout Island is a forested bar island in Marion County, West Virginia, United States, on the Tygart Valley River.[1]

Scout Island was used by a Boy Scout troop as their private camp in the 1940s and 1950s. Since then it is visited by scouts with permission of the current owner. A pavilion and camp sites can still be seen.
