Lewis County, West Virginia

Lewis Location Map West Virginia

Lewis County is right in the heart of West Virginia. Weston is the biggest town, but don’t expect skyscrapers. It’s all about small-town charm here.

The Stonewall Jackson Lake is a local favorite with fishing and boating. History runs deep in these parts. The people here are proud of their roots. Appalachian culture is alive and well.

Civil War sites are across the landscape. Farming is still a big deal so you’ll see plenty of cattle grazing on hillsides. Bluegrass music fills the air on weekends. It’s a piece of old-time America that’s getting harder to find.
