We are very used to the playground shelter area. Shelter number two was too small, too dark, and the picnic tables are horrible. Really need some upgrading done. Can’t understand why there’s electricity and no lights. It gets dark back there. Hopefully, we will never have to rent this one again.

We have a Patrick family reunion every 4th of July. For the last 30 years or so it's been at Grandview. Always been a great experience, fun for all.

Shelter 2 at Grandview was perfect for our multi-family picnic. There were plenty of tables and close proximity to restrooms, children's playground, and hiking trails. The park is full of gorgeous overlooks of the New River Gorge and plenty of hiking trails for all levels.

We ended up moving to shelter 4 because our group increased and it was listed for first come first serve. The shelter was great and we had a great afternoon. The children really enjoyed the play ground. Thanks for preserving the beauty of our state. We look forward to next year.
