Things to do in West Virginia, United States: The Best Fun Activities & Games
As you would expect, The Mountain State displays rustic charm with dramatic river gorges, large limestone caverns and spectacular mountain views. West Virginia hosts outdoor enthusiasts and family vacationers looking for fresh-air activities and serene mountain atmosphere. If stimulating city holidays are your preference, Charleston combines warm hospitality with a lovely riverside location. A family-friendly destination, you’ll discover children’s theatre, river park recreation and popular Bridge Road for shopping and dining. Smaller towns blend outdoor adventure with quaint village atmospheres. Set between the New, Greenbrier and Bluestone Rivers, Hinton is an historic rail town filled with turn-of-the-century architecture and a host of water activities at its doorstep – rafting, fishing, kayaking and more. In the heart of West Virginia, Summersville is a “Mountain Water Playground.” Its lakeside location encourages outdoor recreation from swimming and boating to scuba diving and rafting. And history buffs can trace Civil War battles throughout the states historic sites and state parks. Hiking or horseback riding along trails through deep hardwood forests is another family favorite, especially when you stop for a picnic along a clear mountain stream.

I went to Morgantown Escape Room with my family two weeks ago and we had a lot of fun! Claire made sure we had all the instructions we needed and provided helpful clues to push us forward. Fun, clean/safe, and great service. Thanks, Claire!

An escape room is a fun, immersive new entertainment concept designed for small groups of people to work together in order to escape from a locked room. Each room has a unique story line, and teams must use elements of the room to find clues and solve puzzles in order to escape within the 60 minute time frame. We currently have two locations, one in Huntington and the other in Cross Lanes, WV.

My daughters and I really enjoyed the lost queen. They’re 7 and 9 so we didn’t escape but the puzzles and game itself was so much fun. Our game master (jake) was amazing and you could tell he really loved his job and very helpful. We will def go back we love escape rooms and this one is def at the top of the list.

For my daughters birthday we booked 2 rooms, king tut and escape, my wife called and they handled the booking on their end which made everything go really well. Our group did King Tut and I must say I have done a lot of escape rooms and this was my favorite. It had a feeling of an actual expedition and tomb exploration.. 90 minutes of fun and would definitely recommend it.

We’ve done a ton of escape rooms and this is one of the best. Really creative puzzles and theming, and great incorporation of technology. We’ve done two of their three rooms and are on a dinner break before heading back to do the third!

We really enjoyed this escape room experience, we are novice escapees and this proved to be very challenging for us, so a lot of fun. There is a variety of rooms to choose from with different levels of difficulty. And a staff of folks there to help you along the way... if you need it.

We went with some locals to Axes and Ales and boy did we have fun! You get a short safety briefing and are asked to sign a waiver. Then you get to throw axes at a projected target on a wooden wall. It sounds hokey, but it was a blast! First the rules. Safety first. No horseplay. Screw around and you're out. Second, no retrieving your own axes. You rotate on your lane (which you buy by the hour). You can only throw from the mat, only when the target appears. You can only collect your axe when the walking symbol appears. And you have to stop throwing your axe when the "No Axes" sign comes up. Until 4 pm this is the Lucky Dill Deli. From 4 till 9 its five lanes of axe-throwing fun, along with a 2 beer maximum. When you buy your second beer, you get a red X on your hand in magic marker and you don't get any more. A little beer, okay. Nobody throws while blitzed. We had an excellent time. The playlist of country-rock tunes was well chosen and had everyone tapping their feet. All the folks were having fun, and everyone was cheering for the other guy. Ya gotta love that! If you miss Axes and Ales, you've missed the most fun you can have in Charleston (with your clothes on anyway).
