East Lynn Lake Shelters

*Please note that the Overlook Area's playground is currently under renovation. If you are reserving Shelters 1 or 2, please be aware that some portions of the playground will be unfinished. East Lynn Lake Shelters are perfect for gathering friends and family for a fun-filled day of picnicking. Choose from four lakeside shelters along the northern tip of East Lynn Lake, a 1,005-acre lake just 35 miles south of Huntington, WV. East Lynn Lake is a man-made reservoir part of an Ohio River Basin Flood management program. Today, it's a beloved outdoor recreation area for water sports and hiking. The reservoir is sizeable enough that there are both wake-permitted and no wake zones.
