Surrounded by the beautiful Allegheny Mountains in Virginia's 4,545-acre Douthat State Park, Douthat Lake (pronounced “DOW-thut”) is a 50-acre reservoir that is accessible year-round with a variety of recreational pursuits, from camping and cabin rentals to hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding.
The lake offers excellent boating, fishing, and other water-based sports such as water-biking and water skiing, and a large swimming beach provides protected swimming, a great spot for sunbathing, and boat rentals.
Douthat State Park also offers bat ramps for non-motorized boats and two fishing piers for catching a variety of trout, including brook, brown and rainbow trout as well as other species such as black crappie, channel catfish, and prized chain pickerel.
