Bluestone State Park, State park and nature reserve in Summers County, West Virginia.
Bluestone State Park is a nature reserve along the western shore of Bluestone Lake in West Virginia, surrounded by mountain forests and waterfront landscapes. The facility offers mountain cabins, several campgrounds, and a marina for visitors.
The park was established in 1950 after the Bluestone Dam was constructed to manage river flooding. This dam created the lake ecosystem that defines the area today.
The park serves as a gathering place where local communities enjoy summer recreation and water sports along the scenic river valley. It has become an important recreation center for surrounding communities.
The park is best visited during warmer months when all facilities and boat rentals are available. Visitors should come prepared for various activities since the grounds feature extensive forest and water areas.
One campground on the east shore is accessible only by boat, offering visitors an isolated natural experience away from main areas. These secluded sites create a retreat for those seeking deeper solitude.
