Watoga State Park

Watoga State Park is known as a year-round destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Enjoying a scenic location in the Pocahontas County, it is the largest park in West Virginia. The park's name comes from the Cherokee word for "starry waters," and it first opened in 1937. Before becoming a public park, it was a state forest used to preserve wildlife. 

Spreading over 10,000 acres of land, Watoga State Park is the ultimate recreation retreat. Regardless of your hobbies, age, or preferences, here you will find activities to suit all tastes. From hiking to geocaching, swimming, boating or fishing, you can pick your favorite activities and make the best of the time spent here at Worlds End State Park. 

Watoga State Park features thirty-four cabins. Ten of them are leaning towards a more modern look and design, while the rest of them will take you back in time, as they feature a rustic log and stone construction. If you want to get closer to nature, you can choose to stay at one of the two campgrounds in Worlds End State Park.

Each campsite includes all the amenities you need for a convenient stay: picnic tables, grills, and even a special place where you can wash your clothes with coin operated laundry. Sounds great so far, right? Taking your dog at Watoga State Park requires you obey a few regulations. You need to remember that your pup must wear a leash and be supervised at all times. 

The second thing you need to keep in mind is that you always have to clean up after your dog. With that in mind, make sure you have a few waste bags handy in case you need to use one. Relaxing activities and fun adventures are waiting for you and your pooch at Watoga National Park. Pack your bags and discover the wonder of the largest park in West Virginia!
