What Guests Are Saying
Summersville Lake Shelters provide a great experience for family reunions, with convenient parking and accessible sidewalks. Shelter #3 is noted for its cleanliness and beautiful views of the lake. However, the long grass posed challenges for small children and elders, and the lack of water and electricity in the shelters could be improved.

We have annual reunions at Summersville Lake and Dam, we have always had a good experience. This year the grass was so long that our smaller children and elders had trouble in playing and playing in the beautiful scenic area surrounding the shelter.

We rented shelter 2 for our family reunion, parking was great and near the shelter as was the playground. The sidewalks make it great for handicapped individuals. The bathroom is a bit away for the disabled since they have one central bathroom for the 3 shelters and other picnic tables throughout the park. The shelter has a grill but no water or electricity. It works but adding electricity and water would make it great.

The grass needed cut, the shelter was very dirty with leaves and debris. When someone pays $90 for a shelter with no electric they expect cleanliness

We held our family reunion here in August. It was a great location! There was a large field and playground for children to lay on and plenty of parking. The site was also handicap accessible. My only complaint is there was no power t the shelter.
