Hungry Mother State Park

Hungry Mother, one of the original six Virginia State Parks, has long been a favorite. It’s known for beautiful woodlands and a placid 108-acre lake in the heart of the mountains. The park has a sandy beach with a bathhouse, boat rentals (canoe, kayak, paddle boats and paddleboards), a boat launch and a universally accessible fishing pier. Guests also enjoy its campgrounds, cabins, yurts, gift shops, visitor center, six-bedroom family lodge, and hiking and biking trails.
