This lake is so wonderful. Everybody close by loves skiing at Snowshoe, and Watoga Lake is a fine spot to visit for more than one day, HCS Campground is a fine spot to camp nearby. This lake is so wonderful. A spree to Burr Valley is always fun, and there is a great hiking trail close by called the Laurel Trail. Lakes? Sure, Lake Sherwood is close at hand, and get yourself into a kayak and hit Greenbrier River.
On a magnificent day at Watoga Lake you can take a hike along the Buck And Doe Trail, and the skiing at The Homestead is delightful.

McClintic Point Primitive Campground

Great spot to settle into for a while. My little family camps there every year in june. Alot to do near the camp site. The best site is right on the lake, walk 15 feet to fish your heart out. Lots to do with the children.... Beautyful CLEAN swimming area and play ground just up the main road and showers available to clean them up at the end of the day. The best part about this site you can get the ''away from it all'' and still have access to a store, pay phone, and verry limited cell phone? service... enjoy!!? Mommy of 2 little 1s...
