Things to Do > Fairy Stone State Park

Fairy Stone State Park, located in Patrick County, Virginia, is the largest of the original six state parks. Home of the lucky fairy stones, Fairy Stone State Park is well known for its 168-acre lake adjoining Philpott Reservoir just minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway. Park attractions include cabins, a campground, group camping, a conference center, a newly renovated lodge that sleeps 16, hiking trails, beach swimming, rowboats, canoes, paddle boats, hydro-bikes, picnicking and two playgrounds, including one in the water.

Watch the sunset as you enjoy paddle boats on the lake. Get back to nature as you walk one of the many hiking trails. Roast marshmellows over a camp fire or relax on the beach. You will leave with many memories that will last forever.
