About Elk Garden

Perched high along the Allegheny Front in Mineral County, Elk Garden is a quiet mountain community with deep roots in West Virginia's coal country. Life here today revolves around its peaceful rural setting and scenic ridgeline views. Families have the convenience of Elk Garden Primary School right in town for younger children, while older students head to school in nearby Keyser. It is a welcoming spot for anyone looking for quiet country living, small-town charm, and easy access to the everyday amenities and jobs in Keyser and Piedmont just down the mountain.
