Cacapon (pronounced ka-KAY-pon) Resort State Park is so named because it sits within the shadows of a wide expanse of Cacapon Mountain, the highest peak in the eastern portion of the state. 6000 acres of state park in the eastern panhandle. Hopefully this will draw some of our Guzzi friends from Maryland and Pennsylvania as well. Near Berkeley Springs.
