Sandstone, West Virginia

Sandstone (also New Richmond or New River Falls) is an unincorporated community in Summers County, West Virginia, United States.

[citation needed] Sandstone Falls is located on the New River to the south of the community.

The Sandstone Visitors Center[6] was built by the National Park Service in order to provide outreach and awareness to the various environmental issues along the New River Gorge.

It is located 1 mile off the Sandstone Exit on I-64 not far from the Mary Draper Ingles crossing.

The facility is earth friendly with local and recycled materials comprising its structure, and native plants in a xeriscaping project absorb rainfall and thermal heat.
