Stretching from the Virginia border to within five miles of the Potomac River and West Virginia's northern border with Maryland, this long, narrow, 6,000-acre retreat offers a wide range of recreational activities.

Cacapon Mountain, at 2,300 feet, is the dominant scenic feature within the park following its length north and south. Hiking and bridle trails and a road climb 1,400 feet to the summit. Spur trails along the ridge bring hikers to large rock outcrops of resistant sandstone with views of the valley below.

Recreational activities at Cacapon are so diverse each member of a large family could be engaged in a different sport throughout the day. Over twenty miles of leisure-to-challenging hiking and bridle trails pass laurel, pine and mixed hardwood forests to scenic vistas atop Cacapon Mountain. Guests may swim, fish for bass or trout, and rent row and paddle boats at spring and stream-fed Cacapon Lake. The golf course, designed by Robert Trent Jones, has been rated as one of the 130 best-designed courses in the country.
