The star attraction is undoubtedly the Middle Fork River, where smooth bedrock ledges create natural entry points for swimmers and waders.

The heavily wooded slopes rising from the riverbanks create a cool, intimate atmosphere that makes you feel wonderfully removed from the everyday world, while scenic river vistas around every bend remind you why West Virginia's wild spaces are truly special.
