Cedar Grove traces its story to the Kanawha Valley’s early salt boom, offering riverside living and quick connections to Charleston along the historic Midland Trail Scenic Byway. Neighbors like Belle, Chesapeake, and Montgomery keep everyday conveniences close, while the town’s place within Kanawha County ties residents to a broad network of county services, jobs, and community events.
Outdoorsy weekends come easy: cast for bass on the Kanawha, launch a kayak at a riverside pull-off, or hike shaded trails at Kanawha State Forest. Scenic drives east deliver soaring overlooks and mining-era lore at Hawks Nest State Park, and continue to New River Gorge National Park and Preserve for rock climbing, iconic bridge views, and riverside walks. In town, quiet streets, front porches, and familiar faces give daily life a friendly rhythm, while the US‑60 corridor anchors groceries, services, and quick commutes.
Families value the area’s school options through Kanawha County Schools, including neighborhood elementary foundations, strong middle school programs, and a comprehensive high school that supports college- and career-bound paths. Housing ranges from modest bungalows to hillside homes, with prices that make first-time ownership realistic. Local athletics, band, and volunteer groups help newcomers plug in fast, and the short hop to cultural venues and employers in Charleston broadens your weeknight and weekend choices.
