"First Light" - Summersville Lighthouse on Sesquicentennial

On West Virginia's 150th Birthday, a tremendous candle was lit for all to see! Climb 122 steps up the newly constructed 104' Tall Lighthouse to enjoy one of the most beautiful views of Summersville Lake, the Gauley River National Recreation Area and surrounding mountains. It is a beacon for the State of West Virginia – visible from Route 19 and surrounding areas and is accessible to all. It is a symbol of Nicholas County's continuing revitalization, drawing thousands of visitors and residents each year and encouraging economic development. Steve and Donna Keblesh, the owners of Summersville Lake Retreat, have worked hard to make their dream come true!
