Resort

465 Lodge Dr, Wheeling, WV

Operating as a completely standalone, historic municipal masterpiece since 1928, this massive 270-room independent lodge and resort sprawls across 1,700 acres of rolling hills outside Wheeling. Bequeathed to the city by a prominent industrialist, the property features the beautiful stone-and-wood Wilson Lodge, private cottages, championship golf courses, and an on-site zoo. It is an authentic, deeply community-focused resort delivering a localized mountain escape rich with regional heritage. A fresh, scratch-made breakfast menu is served daily at the on-site restaurant.
