FISHING/BOATING:
The 168-acre Fairy Stone Lake is great for family fishing and boating. Paddle this serene lake in your canoe or kayak. Boat rentals are available daily Memorial Day through Labor Day.
TRAILS: Most of the park's Little Mountain Trail System, 10 miles, is multi-use. Multi-use trails are open to hiking, cycling and horseback riding. The remaining trails, parts of the Little Mountain system and all of the Stuart's Knob system, are for pedestrian use only.
SWIMMING: Lake swimming - Saturday of Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day only. The swimming beach is complete with a bathhouse, concession area and beach toys.
HORSES: Although no horses are rented here, they are allowed on the park's multi-use trails, and the park has an area designated for horse trailers.
HUNTING
Hunting is allowed only in designated areas. About half the park's land is open to hunting. Hunting is never allowed near the public facilities - i.e., the beach, cabins and campground. Next to the park is the Fairystone Farms Wildlife Management Area, which has a 5,000-acre deer management area. Visit the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources website for more information on hunting.
