Here in the Laurel Mountains, there are plenty of things to enjoy. Whether you like sightseeing, boating, fishing, skiing, swimming, biking, whitewater rafting, or just a walk in the woods, everyone will enjoy the scenic Laurel Mountains. History was made in these mountains, with the opening battle of the French and Indian War taking place just about 2 miles from our front door and the first major wagon route to the western pioneer territories running right past our restaurant. Most of the sights listed below are less than a 20 minute drive from the Stone House.
