Make the Most of Your Parkersburg Stay

Cultural heritage along the river

Parkersburg sits at the confluence of the Ohio and Little Kanawha Rivers, where Victorian grandeur recalls the wealth generated by the region's 19th-century oil boom. The Julia-Ann Square Historic District, West Virginia's oldest and largest, showcases over 120 homes built by oil and gas barons in styles ranging from Second Empire to Queen Anne. Downtown, the 1889 Blennerhassett Hotel anchors the revitalized business district, while the Smoot Theatre continues its legacy as a 1926 vaudeville house turned performing arts venue.

Island history and riverfront life

The city's defining attraction remains Blennerhassett Island Historical State Park, accessible only by sternwheeler from Point Park. The reconstructed Palladian mansion tells the intriguing story of Harman Blennerhassett's involvement in Aaron Burr's alleged conspiracy. The riverfront hosts events like Taste of Parkersburg and outdoor concerts. The Oil & Gas Museum provides context for how the 1860 Burning Springs discovery transformed this river port into an industrial powerhouse.

Practical considerations

The Blennerhassett Hotel offers refined accommodations downtown, while the North End corridor provides convenient I-77 access. The city serves as an excellent base for exploring the Mid-Ohio Valley, with historic Marietta, Ohio across the river and Hocking Hills within driving distance.
