Walkersville offers a peaceful, small-community experience amid forested ridges and farm valleys in Lewis County. Weekend plans often lead to Stonewall Resort State Park, with trails, boating, and a lakeside lodge minutes away, and anglers find steady action on Stonewall Jackson Lake. Everyday needs are close in Weston and Jane Lew, while broader shopping and employers in Clarksburg are an easy drive. Outdoor-minded residents also explore Stonecoal Lake’s coves via public access points, and local history comes alive at WVU Jackson’s Mill.
Families are served by Lewis County Schools, with strong extracurriculars and county-wide programs based in Weston. Higher education is close by at West Virginia Wesleyan College in Buckhannon and Glenville State University in Glenville, putting undergraduate and continuing education within an easy commute.
Life moves at a friendly pace — think farm stands, river access, and starry nights — yet regional arts, festivals, and dining are easy to reach via U.S. 19 and I‑79. Housing options range from acreage for custom builds to tidy homes on established lanes. For trip ideas, maps, and seasonal happenings, the Stonewall Country Convention & Visitors Bureau is a helpful resource.
