Relax in West Virginia

I spent the morning cruising the waters of Stonewall Jackson Lake on a pontoon boat. Now I'm teeing it up on an Arnold Palmer Signature Golf Course that careens like a roller coaster through the mountains of Stonewall Resort, a 90-minute drive from Charleston, West Virginia.

Ferris Bueller couldn't pack more fun in a day than you can enjoy here at the luxurious state resort set in the middle of 2,000-acre Stonewall Jackson Lake State Park. Book a room at the lodge on the lake's shore (request a water view).
