Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox settlement Droop is an unincorporated community in Pocahontas County, West Virginia, United States, in the Greenbrier River Valley.

The community takes its name from nearby Droop Mountain.[1] The area lends its name to Droop Mountain Battlefield State Park, site of West Virginia's last significant Civil War battle.[2] The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) constructed the park's trails and buildings in the 1930s, as part of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal legislation. Today, a small museum on the park grounds houses Civil War artifacts and discusses the park's CCC history.[3] Bi-annually, the West Virginia Reenactors Association reenacts the Droop Mountain battle.[4]
