What to do and see in Huntington, West Virginia (WV): The Best Things to do Good for Big Groups
Huntington sits on the mid-section of the scenic Ohio River at the point where West Virginia, Ohio and Kentucky meet. Founder Collis P. Huntington was the builder and owner of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. West Virginia’s second-largest city and the home of Marshall University, Huntington promises a variety of attractions: a downtown area with shopping, entertainment and a town square with a nostalgic nod to the city's railroad past. Year-round, festivals and special events take place downtown and in Pullman Square, the Civic Arena and the Keith-Albee Theater.

We visited Saturday 12/21/19. We were in Huntington for the Candlenights Podcasts Taping that afternoon. Unfortunately we had to cut our visit to the museum a little short so we could get back in to town for that. Our docent, Dave Bond, was a real gem. He was knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and didn't even flinch at what were probably some pretty stupid questions. The collection is extensive. The demonstrations are informative. We enjoyed ourselves very much. Just a side note - they had put so much effort into decorating the place for the holidays - that was icing on the cake. If anyone in your group is interested in radio / TV / phonographs / computers / HAM / or just history, this is really worth a visit. There was a donation box on the way out. We were more than happy to contribute.
2. The Lost Escape Room

An escape room is a fun, immersive new entertainment concept designed for small groups of people to work together in order to escape from a locked room. Each room has a unique story line, and teams must use elements of the room to find clues and solve puzzles in order to escape within the 60 minute time frame. We currently have two locations, one in Huntington and the other in Cross Lanes, WV.

My daughters and I really enjoyed the lost queen. They’re 7 and 9 so we didn’t escape but the puzzles and game itself was so much fun. Our game master (jake) was amazing and you could tell he really loved his job and very helpful. We will def go back we love escape rooms and this one is def at the top of the list.

Took the 2 grandchildren today to visit the Farm. Mask on and WOW what a great time enjoyed by all. The beautiful huge stair steps into the the trees was amazing and enjoyed by our Grandchildren. Once we climbed up the flights of steps there are walk ways of netting and netting with walking planks. Great addition to this wonderful place. The employees are friendly and eager to answer any questions you may have. New this year was the Nature room filled with aquatic creatures and even an aquarium. The farm has plenty of clean restrooms and have Purell sanitizer dispensers thru out the farm. The farm is truly a Blessing for all of us to enjoy! A BIG Thank you to the Perry family for there dedication to this wonderful place
