This exciting West Virginia city has a secret: a wealth of
easily accessible scenic trails! Mountain biking, trail hiking,
rock climbing and snow skiing are gateways to the awesome
wildlife, fresh air and breathtaking views.

Bruceton Mills Dam since you’re here . . . and there’s whitewater on
Little Sandy Creek for all you thrill seekers!
For a spectacular range of birds and mammals take a day trip to
Cranesville Swamp. Lucky visitors may spot the rare northern
water shrew, or catch a glimpse of a bear rummaging through the
shrub thickets surrounding Muddy Creek. Patience and binoculars
may afford others a glimpse of any one of the more than 100 bird
species, such as alder flycatcher, Blackburnian warbler, or the sawwhet owl.
The 133-acre Cathedral State Park is an ancient hemlock forest of
majestic proportions! Trees up to 90 feet in height and 21 feet

of vascular flora have been catalogued and over 50 species of

cross-country skiing in winter.
Graced with four distinct seasons and natural adventure

History
Greater Morgantown’s heritage is reflected in its
architecture, artwork, cuisine and celebrations.
Countless customs and traditions passed down over
generations are a vibrant part of daily life here and make
“Mountaineer Country” an epicenter of Appalachian
culture. But the region was an ethnic melting pot as well;
as early as the 1880’s into the 1920’s coal mines attracted
immigrants from Europe. Slovak, Polish, Hungarian, and
Italian roots are common in the region, and their heritage
has become an indistinguishable part of the Greater
Morgantown fabric.
There is no shortage of ways to discover the many facets of the
region’s history, starting with Arthurdale, “Eleanor’s Little Village.”
The community was nurtured by First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt
when it became the first New Deal project. The living history
museum traces the fascinating connection between a West
Virginia community and the First Lady in the 1930s.
Local events such as the Preston County Buckwheat Festival,
WVU Mountaineer Week, Arts Walk, and the Civil War Weekend
celebrating the Victory of Rowlesburg gives you the chance to
rub shoulders with our locals and understand what makes our
region tick.
A walking audio tour of downtown Morgantown reveals the
city’s historic architecture through structures like the majestic
Metropolitan Theatre, home to vaudeville acts featuring Bob
Hope, Bing Crosby and Helen Hayes. No less than 10 of WVU’s
downtown campus buildings are on the national register of
historic places.
Just for fun, visit the Forks of Cheat Baptist Church, the first
church established west of the mountains in November,
1775, and find the infamous “whiskey stone” in the front
lawn cemetery. This headstone served quite another
purpose during Prohibition: here, dollars were discreetly
exchanged for liquor !
Morgantown’s one-of-a-kind culture is in everything
around you, from the quaint antique shops and
world-famous “Pepperoni Rolls” to the Appalachian
music and handmade crafts. In every way possible,
the past seamlessly weaves through the essence
of present-day Mountaineer Country, making it an
American destination rich with heritage.

Revisit the 1930s in Arthurdale, West Virginia. Established
in 1933, by the United States government, Arthurdale
is the nation’s first New Deal Homestead Community.
Created through President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New
Deal legislation, the community provided a new chance at
life for residents of West Virginia who were suffering from
the Great Depression. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt served
as the empathetic force behind the community, which
became known as “Eleanor’s Little Village” because of her
interest. Today, Arthurdale is a National Historic District that
features 160 of the 165 original homesteads. The New Deal
Homestead Museum is a multi-building museum comprised
of the a forge filled with original tools, a service station
reminiscent of a bygone era, the historic Center Hall, the

Theatre’s elaborate musicals pack the house -- and in 2010 it has a new home,
the Morgantown Event Center. Community theater groups offer fans a neverending showcase of dramatic plays, musicals, comedic performances – even
children’s dance and theater. Rising stars performing at the Hazel Ruby McQuain
Amphitheater are rivaled by -- the stars! The outdoor venue is situated on the river
front and hosts live performances and family movie nights all summer long.
The WVU Arts Series brings nationally-touring, professional performances to
Greater Morgantown; The Ten Tenors, Garrison Keillor, African Children’s Choir, and
Brian Wilson are just a few!
Festivals and Art Fairs
Wine & jazz, country & western, rock & roll – it’s all here in Greater Morgantown.
The All Good Music Festival is one of the Mid-Atlantic’s most successful music
and camping events. The annual weekend-long gathering is held every July
in Masontown and has featured past performances from Widespread Panic,
Phil Lesh & Friends, Trey Anastasio, and String Cheese Incident.
The West Virginia Wine & Jazz Festival is known for its scenic splendor,
renowned musical performances and diverse wine selection. The event
stretches over a weekend every September at Camp Muffly.
West Virginia University pays tribute to it’s Appalachian heritage each
fall during Mountaineer Week. The craft fair is an indoor, juried craft
fair featuring quality Appalachian handcrafted objects by over 60
artisans from West Virginia and surrounding states.
As you visit the area, discovering one gallery after another, a large
playhouse or the intimate one-man stages, you’ll agree: art lies at
the heart of Greater Morgantown!

Morgantown Joins
Sister City in Mexico
Located just north of Mexico City, Guanajuato is considered one of the most important historical and
cultural colonial cities in Mexico, but about 1800 miles away, in Morgantown, W.Va., community leaders
believe they have found a future and a sister city.
In December of 2009, eight community leaders who make up the Morgantown Sister Cities Commission, visited
the central Mexico city with the goal of expanding tourism, economic development, education and culture.
They joined a host of other cities as part of the first sister city festival.
The relationship originated under the leadership of Ron Justice, Morgantown’s mayor at that time, and was
continued by the subsequent mayor, Bill Byrne. Byrne met with Guanajuato’s mayor, Eduardo Romero Hicks,
to present a proclamation of intent, promoting economic and cultural exchanges between the two cities.
“There are very similar things between Morgantown and Guanajuato,” Byrne said.“It’s a mountainside
city, has a large university, it has a great relationship with the city council and the government, beautiful
terrain, great people, very friendly, great food.” The two communities share a significant history of
exchange of programs by West Virginia University and the University of Guanajuato as well.
Morgantown is a member of Sister Cities International, a nonprofit citizen diplomacy network that creates
and strengthens partnerships between U.S. and international communities.

Dining
Dining in Greater Morgantown has evolved into a culinary
adventure; new restaurants are thriving and timeless family
establishments are flourishing.
For casual fare with an urban flair, try The Boston Beanery, a
franchise that originated in Morgantown, or Damon’s Grille for
fall off the bone BBQ ribs. A family favorite is Colasante’s, old world
Italian and a landmark for locals. Lakeside dining is available at Archie’s
Lakehouse throughout the Cheat Lake boating season, and Yesterday’s
Restaurant Bar & Grill features a large fireplace and patio dining.
The influence of flavors and culture here is almost overwhelming and has
many positive effects on menu and recipe design. Wings Olé is a favorite
of university students for “fries and bleu.” Black Bear Burritos uses fresh
ingredients and offers some vegan choices on the menu; you might even
luck into a folk duo performance. Enticing flavors and exotic ingredients
abound at Cafe of India and Peking House. Rio Grande and Los Mariachis
excel at authentic mexican cuisine. Situated in the Morgantown Airport, Ali
Baba’s Middle Eastern fare is served with a view of the runway.
You’ll find a diverse wine selection and imaginative cuisine at Morgantown’s
fine dining restaurants. Stefano’s is family owned and specializes in Old
World Italian and American cuisine with recipes that have been handed down
through generations. Executive Chef Simon Poulin at Sargasso takes his
inspiration from the Caribbean, French, Asian, Italian and Continental cuisines .
The original etching room of the old Seneca Glass Factory has been beautifully
renovated to house The Glasshouse Grille; the specialty is fresh, innovative
American cuisine. Café Bacchus offers upscale cuisine served in an historic
home in downtown Morgantown.
There are several palate pleasers in Morgantown’s Wharf District where you
can enjoy alfresco dining by the Monongahela River. Oliverio’s Ristorante on
the Wharf is a Tuscan inspired eatery; (a casual version of the decor and menu
is available at Oliverio’s Marketplace in Suncrest). The Regatta Bar and Grille
inside Waterfront Place Hotel features a crew team/rowing theme; during the
WVU football and basketball seasons you might catch the statewide sportsline
shows for Coaches Bob Huggins and Bill Stewart. Synergy Chop House &
Saloon is casual dining in a renovated warehouse, located on the Caperton Trail.
Just off the beaten path of the I-68 exit for Bruceton Mills is Little Sandy’s
Restaurant with simple country cooking, like homemade biscuits and gravy,
it’s one of the best places to sample the local specialty, buckwheat cakes
and sausage. Two good reasons to visit Aurora: Cathedral State Park and
Melanie’s,“home of good food, friendly smiles and low prices.”
Make your way to Kingwood for Monroe’s Deli Style Eatery in downtown
and Prime Thyme at Preston Country Club, two local favorites.
Save room for dessert . . . a stroll through Downtown Morgantown will
land you in front of Tutto Gelato, Cold Stone Creamery and Carvel
Ice Cream!
Greater Morgantown knows how to celebrate food, too. RibFest
(June), the Chicken Wing Cook Off (August), and Preston County
Buckwheat Festival (September) are family friendly and delicious.
Like a too-small serving of your favorite dish, you may find your
culinary adventure ending before you’ve quite satisfied your
hunger. Not to worry . . . return visits to Greater Morgantown are
highly encouraged!

Nightlife
Listen closely on any evening in Greater
Morgantown and you’ll hear the sounds of
people having fun!
Downtown Morgantown pulses with the beat
of countless live performances and talented DJs.
Because the downtown is compact, club hoppers
can stroll streets that teem with activity all night
long. The action starts at Bent Willey’s. Beyond the
velvet ropes you’ll find seven different party rooms
including the 80’s Lounge, Dance Club, Patio Bar and
“Cool Zone.” Downstairs is the Vintage Room, an elite
bar stocked with fine wines, exquisite champagnes,
martinis, and rare cigars. Gourmet appetizers and brick
oven pizzas are on the menu. Across the street, Chic-nBones Rhythm Cafe offers Karaoke, along with The Back
Door and De ja vu. Small groups of 2-4 will enjoy Gibbie’s
Pub and Eatery featuring intimate tables and booths and
30’s style decor. Located in the heart of Morgantown’s
bustling nightlife strip, De Lazy Lizard’s neon green lights
make it hard to miss. A cosmopolitan decor and sushi bar
make DragonFly a destination. For locally brewed beer,
stop by Morgantown Brewing Company (Brew Pub), the
back deck offers occasional live music. And look no further
than 123 Pleasant Street for the authentic Morgantown
music scene. Sideline’s, The Sports Page and Brick Yard
Pub always have a game on the big screen.
As the moon makes its trek across the sky, local food cart
vendors emerge along downtown’s side streets, selling hot
dogs and pretzels.
Venture out of the city and you’ll find honky tonks, beer
gardens and family-run taverns. While Crockett’s is a
legend to any student who ever visited or attended WVU,
it’s Mario’s Fishbowl that holds so many memories: 60
years of reflections are written on receipts, napkins and
business cards that layer the walls and “the coldest
beer in Morgantown is served in “Weiss” goblets, or
“fishbowls.” Archie’s, Blue Star and Rhythm and
Brews are biker-friendly bars. Kegler’s, Coach’s,
Legends, and Varsity Club (across from the WVU
Stadium) will satisfy most sports fans.
Whether you’re in the mood for laid-back
vibe, country music or open mic, Greater
Morgantown keeps the party going from day
to night.

Shop
There’s no better way to discover a city than to shop your
way through it. Greater Morgantown provides a wealth
of retail opportunities.
Even with premier shopping centers, such as Morgantown Mall,
home to Hollister Co., Aeropostale, and Victoria’s Secret, as well
as University Towne Center, featuring well-known anchor retailers
such as Wal-Mart, Target and Dick’s Sporting Goods, shopping
connoisseurs have discovered that where the area really shines is in
its exclusive one-of-a-kind shops. To make your retail adventure more
enjoyable, here’s the inside track on some of our favorites.
Downtown Morgantown’s historic High Street is every bit the destination
spot. It’s hard to resist the captivating window displays of Coni & Franc,
spotlighting high-fashion for women. Tanner’s Alley features leather
handbags made locally from vintage clothing. Across the street, duck into Slight
Indulgence for Godiva Chocolates, cigars, and a fantastic selection of wine.
Walk through the door of Arrow Gift Shoppe and you’ll hear a bell clanging
against antique wood and possibly run into Patrick and Nibbles, the shop’s
resident cats. The store serves as the Don Knotts headquarters, honoring
Morgantown’s favorite son with one-of-a-kind souvenirs, like postcards, license
plates and a full selection of blue and gold WVU souvenirs.
Just for fun, stop by Bead Monster Boutique for jewelry that will suit your
taste because you make it yourself. Local pottery and glass is plentiful at
Appalachian Gallery; for a memorable denim experience visit Vance’s Blues
on Walnut Street.
A towering 100-foot glass furnace chimney marks the entrance to the historic
Seneca Center. The renovated glass plant’s brick-lined walls and worn wooden
floors greet visitors as they wind their way through the assortment of privately
owned specialty shops including The Finery, chic fashions for women, and
Wamsley’s Cycles, part bike shop, part hangout for cyclists and part bike university.
The Antiques Walk is a great resource for vintage jewelry, furniture and glass.
Drive east on I-68, Exit 23 to Bruceton and uncover the past at the Bruceton
Antique Mall, over 6,000 square feet of collectibles, toys, fine furniture, clocks,
pottery, glassware, and china. Continue east to Kingwood and you’ll land on
Main Street, a step back in time! The Calico Cat is located across from the
courthouse and tucked behind the old bank building. This two-story cottage
welcomes you with seven rooms of unique gifts and home decor.
A short drive South and you’re in Rowlesburg where The Curiosity Shoppe
houses 42 West Virginia Cats’ meow village buildings, Fenton Art handmade
glass, pottery and WV hand-painted slates.
Greater Morgantown is for the treasure hunter. Shopping here is about
the eclectic, the one-of-a-kind, the unexpected. It’s about running across
stores with their own personalities, stores that aren’t anywhere else.
It’s the Farmers Market every Sat. morning, May through October
in downtown Morgantown -- a diverse collection of more than 30
vendors selling the freshest produce, meats, eggs, and breads. It’s
about Scigliano Designs, where customers are encouraged
to help design their own handbags to reflect individual
“purse”onality.
Return home the envy of all your friends with your unique, trendy,
fresh handmade treasures from Greater Morgantown.
