Fairmont Waterpark

Short Preview:

FAIRMONT - Three Morgantown businessmen have big plans for Fairmont - a resort complex filled with water slides and roller coasters, movie screens, retail stores, restaurants and a hotel and conference center.

David Rees, who owns the Vintage Room and Bent Willey's in Morgantown, and Michael Vecchio and Mark Tampoya, who are in the real estate business, have joined to create The Water Works LLC.

They plan to break ground in April on the first phase of Volcano Island Resort, estimated to cost $87 million, on 25 acres of the 107- acre site of the former Exxon Fairmont Coke Works and the former Sharon Steel.

Looks like Fairmont is finally getting something it deserves. With Fairmont looking more like a bedroom community of Morgantown I think this is something that will get people talking about going to Fairmont. Also is a great place for such a park in between Clarksburg and Morgantown in the Tri-Cities of C-F-M.
