West Virginia is replete with a thousand little paradises – places where beauty and majesty stand front and center the moment you walk out the door. One such place is Alpine Lake Resort. This gem is more than just a place to stay while you go to to other places; it is a destination all on its own.

Right along the West Virginia/Maryland border, about 20 miles north of Monongahela National Forest, you can find Alpine Lake Resort, a beautiful destination with views that will take your breath away.
