If you are traveling by, why not stop by Scott Lake. Gotta ski! Snowshoe is a fine spot to do that, and dry warm beds await you at Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites ELKINS. Not far from Scott Lake, you'll hit upon Teter Creek Lake which is a pretty lake. Good hiking is available along the Crouch Hunter Access Trail, and unsurprisingly Carrick Run flows through this area.
This lake is so wonderful. Camping at Blue Bend Rec Area - Monongahela National Forest

After a long day outdoors Elkins Super 8 Motel is a great site to spend a night or two, and Roaring Creek - Tygart Valley River Tributary has a perfect whitewater paddling spot nearby. In the event that you don't

Stuart Recreation Area - Monongahela National Forest
 | Out of all the WV and Ohio State Parks I have vacationed at. Stuart's is the best. Stuart's is a very clean state of the art camping facility. My favorite part of Stuarts was the fact there was gravel at every campsite so on those rainy days you were not fighting mud! I camp here at least 2 or three times a year and will come back here every year!... |

The campground is nestled between two mountain chains in the center of the Tygart Valley, bordered on one side by Chenoweth Creek (a great warm-water fishing stream!), and thousands of acres of cornfields on the other.
Although it is only two miles from downtown Elkins and just over a mile from Wal-Mart and the local laundromat, it is completely isolated and very, very quiet. You can see every star in the sky on a clear night.
Facilities include: 10 roomy full hook-up sites (with 50 amp electric) 7 partial hook-up sites and twenty acres for rustic tent camping
The large and very clean Bath House is one of the best in the state! We have received rave reviews about it.
The Pegasus Farm is a working farm. We offer fields of Sunflowers, vegetable gardens, a grass maze to walk and birdwatch. There is also a pond for fishing. Our two horses, Gracie and her son, Pegasus, graze the fields daily.
The Pegasus Farm Campground is located just off US Rts 250/219 South on Arnold Hill Road. We have no GPS locator as yet, but you can use our neighbor's ... |

Snowshoe

Snowshoe has the biggest elevation drop of any skiresort in the region which in my oppinion makes it a realtively great ski resort. You can get more skiing done before you have to get on the lift again. Which I think is very important in a ski resort.... |
