The lake is stocked with game fish, bass, blue gill, and crappie. The association owns 2,200 acres of land near Flat Top Mountain. An abundant array of wildlife can be seen on the many walking trails . Only 12 miles from Beckley, Flat Top Lake is West Virginia's best kept secret. Weekend, vacation homes, and permanent residential homes are offered.
Every home has waterfront, so a limited number of homes exist.
Boating activity, fishing, and jet skis are all popular on the lake. Glade Springs golf course is within a 10 minute drive, or snow skiing and tubing is available at Winterplace Ski Resort, just minutes away.
