Stonewall Resort, nestled in Roanoke, West Virginia, is one of the state’s newest state parks. The lake and park were completed in 1990 by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, who acquired the land to construct a flood control dam. Named after Confederate General Stonewall Jackson, a Clarksburg native raised in nearby Jackson’s Mill, the resort has been privately managed in partnership with the state since 2002.
Stillwaters, the resort’s signature restaurant, provides a refined dining experience. Whether dining indoors or al fresco, enjoy attentive service and authentic, appealing cuisine. Featuring wild game, fish, and locally sourced produce, the talented culinary team crafts dishes with a distinctive flair.
Lightburn’s offers a menu that blends traditional Appalachian fare with unexpected culinary creations and flavors. Come relax and enjoy while taking in stunning panoramic views of the Palmer Course, Stonewall Jackson Lake, and the expansive resort grounds. TJ Muskies Lounge is the perfect place to unwind in a casual atmosphere. The outdoor patio and lake views, along with multiple televisions, make TJ Muskies an ideal spot to enjoy tempting appetizers and sandwiches.
