"The outdoors" is such a complicated term and provides a varied landscape of uses. Summersville Lake, while one location, provides multiple mappings of social use by often non-overlapping communities. For the climbers that descend (and ascend) upon this region, to what extent do they attempt to appreciate its local functions? Or do these outsiders, however well-intentioned, find themselves using "stewardship" and "conservation" as modern-day forms of that age-old impulse to save Appalachia from its own people? #appalachianechoes

Top Wilderness Hotel Reviews

Super 8 by Wyndham Summersville/New River National Park

10/10 Excellent

"Many restaurants and shopping options"

La Quinta Inn & Suites Summersville / New River National Park

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and tidy. Had trouble using the TV for local channels- but ‘figured it out’ eventually. Not sure why I’m required to provide a drivers license. No other hotel chain requires this of me - and I’m pretty sure other patrons. Despite my issues (unique to me I presume) my wife and I were pleased with the stay and will rebook when we travel through the area again."
