Little Beaver Creek descends through highland farms and forest into 18-acre Little Beaver Lake, the focus for outdoor recreation at Little Beaver State Park. Fishing, swimming, and paddle-boating on the lake draw visitors when weather permits, and hiking, biking, and picnicking are popular year-round. A small museum is located at the park recreation center and pavilion.
A 46-site campground that accommodates tent and RV camping is open year-round. Park trails are being extended to adjacent Glade Springs Resort and the New River Gorge National Park and Preserve.
Directions: Little Beaver State Park is located near Beaver, WV, and Shady Spring, WV, south of Beckley, West Virginia, in Raleigh County, in the central New River Gorge Region in southern West Virginia (WV).
