Hemlock Hollow Falls is a waterfall you can pull off the road next to
the Thomas Buford Pugh Memorial Bridge parallels a historic truss railroad bridge, offering dramatic views of the New River

this park is most known for the Glade Creek Grist Mill; a fully functional replica of the original Cooper’s Mill, which once stood here
if you've seen photos of West Virginia, it's likely you may recognise this place
Glade Creek has multiple cascades you can view from several access points near the grist mill
in another section of the park, you can find the secluded 19-acre Boley Lake, which is a popular fishing destination
most commonly found here are largemouth bass, bluegill, catfish & trout
if you drive to the top of the park, you will find overlooks that offer quite a view of the mountains
