Grantsville puts you close to everything yet feels refreshingly unhurried. As the seat of Calhoun County, it anchors life along the Little Kanawha River, with quick drives to Parkersburg, Spencer, and Glenville. U.S. 33 and 119 keep commutes simple.
Weekends often begin under some of the East’s darkest skies at Calhoun County Park, a favorite for camping, trails, and astronomy nights.

Plan byways and seasonal events with West Virginia Tourism.
