Hawaiian Vacation Plans Meet Park Cabin Shortage
A Hawaiian visitor hopes to rent one of West Virginia’s 92 park cabins at five vacation areas but the state faces cabins shortages. Division chief Watt B. Powell said only about 20 percent of applications are filled and more cabins are needed amid a long-running park cabin program funded by CCC and WPA. Despite the shortage, WV’s park system features cabins with running water and inside bathrooms, while some older cabins still use oil lamps and outdoor facilities. Officials note continued investment in conservation and park infrastructure despite current limits.
