Milton, WV

Sitting along the Mud River between Huntington and Charleston, Milton offers a friendly small-town feel with convenient access to I-64. The town is famous as the home of Blenko Glass, where artisans have hand-blown colorful glassware for over a century. You can visit the workshop and visitor center throughout the year to watch the glassmakers in action. In the warmer months, neighbors gather downtown for weekly farmers markets, food truck evenings on Main Street, and classic car cruise-ins.
