Lots of hiking trails and little fields. This place is beautiful. There's an overlook along the main train that had a view of Cooper's Rock and Cheat Lake. This place is a hidden gem, I loved it here. I can't wait to hike the rest of the trails. I got to see frogs, salamanders, and lots of wildflowers

Great trail, although it is difficult to follow at times. If you end up doing the whole loop, at one point (either at the end or beginning, depending on which direction you decide to go), you'll end up walking along the road to get from one parking spot to the other. But absolutely beautiful and lush, and the view is 100% worth it.

Came here a few times with the GF. The park has not once disappointed, even though the one time we got caught in a rainstorm. The trails are fun, and there are quite a few of them. I recommend coupling your experience with the AllTrails app. Yes, you get service out here if you have AT&T. There are numerous overlooks, a cool old brick dam where we saw the most frogs I have ever seen in my life, and apparently a climbing area (but we haven't checked that out yet). Oh and it's a pet friendly park. Will visit again soon.

Really nice area for a hike or run. There are a few beautiful overlooks where you can see cheat lake and the cooper's rock overlook.

Love hunting here and sighting in rifles. Only problem is there are so many people walking at all times. I'm not sure if people realize what snake Hill wildlife management Area really is. I was on a super tight deer trail last bow season in full camouflage and had 3 elderly folks walking through thickets. I'm not an investigator but it was clear what they were doing. I would check with the DNR and see if you're about to take a walk with your dog where people are actively hunting with bows/firearms. It is spring turkey season currently.

Lovely area to walk, run and explore! Love the wide open field and the wooded trails.

Quiet, remote, yet close to Morgantown. A better way to see the Cheat River without the crowds. Far more seclusion. Trails not marked well so plan your hikes ahead of time. Fun to wander and explore.

So many trails to explore with gorgeous views.

The first time my boyfriend and I went here, we couldn’t actually find the overlook. Too be fair, that was probably due to our own stupidity. We have gone several times since then, and we have enjoyed it so much! There are multiple beautiful overlooks, and never any crowds.

This area has some wonderful hiking trails that run throughout logging roads. The views, if you can find them, are spectacular and exceed those of Cooper's Rock, a much more popular hiking area the locals go to.

This place is a gem! Perfect place for a springer to feel at home! Open fields, tall grass, mud puddles, etc. We went on Labor Day around 12pm, and we only passed a handful of people.

Such a cute little area off the beaten path. Definitely come here in the winter when coopers is closed. But I hope it doesn't gain in popularity because it's such a hidden gem!
