Recreation
Burnsville Lake
and
Sutton Lake
are major recreational facilities offering marinas, boat launches, beaches and camping
areas. There are more than 500 camping sites in the county and over 30,000 acres
of Wildlife Management Areas offering hunting and fishing opportunities.
Braxton County
is home to some of the finest hunting in
West Virginia
including deer, turkey, bear, grouse and waterfowl, an increasingly popular game.
Shopping
Shopping, considered an important recreational activity by many, gives
Braxton County
a definite edge. Some of the best recreational shopping in the state can be found
at the Flatwoods Factor Outlet Mall, home to such designer shops as Tommy Hilfiger.
The shopping center's success can be attributed to its location on I-79, a major
north-south transportation artery. Excellent sales volumes for many stores have
resulted in a top ten ranking among their respective chains for business volume.
