Summersville Lake, boasting emerald-blue water and lush sandstone cliffs fringing its sides, is easily among West Virginia’s most popular attractions. This rock-fill dam offers a 96.5-km (60-mi) long shoreline, which draws tourists by the hordes each year. While boating, scuba diving, swimming, and whitewater rafting are the most popular activities for visitors heading into the lake, those who don’t prefer wading in the water can indulge in some rock climbing, biking, picnicking, and fishing. Large- and small-mouth bass, panfish, walleye, trout, and catfish are the top catches that fishing enthusiasts will find here. Book a private accommodation near the lake and feel refreshed to take on more adventure. Listed here are the top cabins with hot tub near Summersville Lake, West Virginia.
