Few things in life are as peaceful as an early morning paddle on the perfectly calm lake. For that matter, boating at any time is a joyful experience. Whether you are out for an aerobic high-speed paddle, fishing from a boat with a good friend, quietly exploring the shore alone looking for that illusive Green Heron, or casually paddling and chatting with family members, the lake at Alpine can feed your soul. The water quality is pristine and the scene is beautiful in all directions. Please help us maintain this high-value amenity by following the simple boating regulations. These regulations are also posted by the boat launch area. A regulation that is key to maintaining the pristine nature of the Lake is, “No boat may be put into the lake with a gasoline engine on board, even if the engine is not actually used.”

Alpine Lake is the crown jewel of the Alpine Lake Resort Community. You can enjoy its beauty from the shore or on the water.

In addition to its natural beauty, this 150-acre Lake is a thriving fishery that offers recreational opportunities to anglers of every age and skill level. The fish population includes: Rainbow Trout, Yellow Perch, Black Crappie, Largemouth Bass, Channel Catfish, and Bluegills. Every spring the Lake Management Committee (a community-based advisory group) oversees stocking. In recent years the focus has been on Rainbow Trout, and the stocking plan has included a few large “brooder” trout.

Fishing is a free amenity for all property owners and employees (of Alpine Lake Property Owners Association, and Alpine Lake Public Utility Commission). The general public, renters, and guests can also buy a permit to fish. While a West Virginia Fishing License is not required at this privately owned and managed lake, Alpine Lake’s own fishing regulations must be followed. These regulations are posted near the boat launch (and in-part below) and at the handicap access fishing area. Please help us maintain the health of this resource by following these regulations.

a. The golf course area, including Number 10 and 11 fairways and greens, and within 100 feet of the shoreline.

Catch-and-Release Program:

1. Time is important. Play and release fish as quickly as possible to reduce unnecessary stress.
2. Handle the fish with bare, wet hands.
3. Keep the fish in the water as much as possible.
4. Best way to handle fish is to place the thumb over the fish’s lower lip and lift it straight up. Remove the hook using forceps or needle-nose pliers and return the fish to water. Hold the fish gently under the water until it is ready to swim away on its own.
