A West Virginia State Park getaway is tops on our list. Many of the parks have cabins and campgrounds that provide ample opportunity to reconnect with nature – and each other; and a few, like Tygart Lake State Park, even have a lodge perfect for extended families and groups (think weddings, reunions, etc.).
Perched on the picturesque shores of Tygart Lake, the state park’s lodge is beautiful on both the inside and the out.

The rustic lodge mixed with modern flair carries into the guest rooms where the rustic plank ceiling is a lovely, woodsy touch.
