About Hungry Mother State Park

One of the original six Virginia State Parks, Hungry Mother has long been a favorite. It's known for beautiful woodlands and a placid 108-acre lake in the heart of the mountains. The park has a sandy beach with a bathhouse, boat rentals (canoes, kayak, fishing kayaks, paddleboats, paddleboards and hydrobikes), a boat launch and a universally accessible fishing pier. Guests also enjoy campgrounds, cabins, yurts, gift shops, a visitor center, a six-bedroom family lodge, and hiking and biking trails.

The Hemlock Haven Conference Center, which is available for retreats, conferences and special events, is also here. Catering is available.
