Pipestem State Park, West VA

In October, My husband and I spent a weekend at Pipestem State Park in West Virginia. There are 2 lodges, cabins, and campsites. We stayed at the Mountain Creek Lodge where access is by a sky tram ride into and out of the gorge. A continental breakfast is included for guests at this lodge.
