Blackwater Falls Lodging

Located on Blackwater Canyon’s south rim, the lodge at Blackwater Falls State Park offers 54 comfortable rooms with sweeping views of the densely forested gorge below. All lodge rooms have been extensively renovated, but the mid-century architecture conveys a sense of history and blends in with the natural surroundings. The view of the Blackwater Canyon from the back patio is almost as breathtaking as the park’s famous waterfalls.

Blackwater Falls State Park has 39 fully-furnished cabins set in a wooded area near the lodge. These cabins offer peace and amenities in the coziest way. The park’s 13 Vacation Cabins sit on the north side of the park, down the road from the famous Blackwater Falls. Whichever area you choose to stay in, you won’t be far from the fun. And if you enjoy traveling with your animal companion, Blackwater Falls State Park even has 10 pet-friendly cabins. Cabins are available year-round. Check-in begins at 4 p.m., and check-out is by 10 a.m.

Blackwater Falls State Park is named for the falls of the Blackwater River, whose amber-colored waters plunge five stories then twist and tumble through an eight-mile long gorge. This area is one of the most photographed sites in West Virginia. Campers visiting the park can enjoy activities like hiking, biking, fishing and so much more. The campground is open late April through October 31, weather permitting. Sites 1-30 are open for primitive camping.
