Stonewall Resort sits on the shores of Stonewall Jackson Lake in Lewis County, West Virginia, approximately 90 minutes north of Charleston via US-19. The 1,900-acre state resort park is one of West Virginia's premier destination lodges, featuring an Adirondack-style main lodge opened in 2003 and designed by the architects behind The Greenbrier. The setting — forested Appalachian hills rolling down to a 2,650-acre reservoir — gives the property a serene, remote character despite its accessibility from major highways. Accommodations include lodge rooms with lake or mountain views, lakefront rooms on the water's edge, and private wooded cabins available in one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations. The Arnold Palmer Signature Golf Course is the resort's marquee amenity, an 18-hole layout winding through hardwood forests along the lake's contours and drawing golfers from across the tri-state region. A full-service marina rents pontoon boats, kayaks, and canoes, while fishing for bass, crappie, and walleye on Stonewall Jackson Lake is a year-round draw. The Stillwaters Restaurant serves regional American cuisine with panoramic lake views, and a bar provides lighter fare and weekend entertainment. An indoor pool, outdoor seasonal pool, spa, and fitness center round out the on-site amenity profile. Hiking trails connect the lodge to the surrounding state park's network, and the park's winter programming includes cross-country ski opportunities in years with sufficient snowfall. Stonewall Resort attracts anglers, golfers, families seeking a lakeside retreat, and couples looking for a West Virginia getaway that balances natural scenery with polished facilities. As a West Virginia State Parks property, it is managed with a public-access mission and priced accordingly.
