Meet Michelle! 👋

She recently joined the team as General Manager, and is excited to help shape visitor experience through events and day-to-day improvements. “Before my husband and I moved to West Virginia, Pirate’s Cove was one of the places we continuously saw on social media and immediately fell in love with. Now getting to call this incredible place part of my everyday life is pretty surreal.”

Michelle also wants visitors to stop by the Welcome Center when arriving at the park to chat and get everything they need. “Our team has put a lot of pride into developing a great coffee and beverage menu. It’s open to the public, so you don’t have to be staying at the park to stop in and see us!”
