Cheat Lake Apartments & Rentals Near WVU

Lakeside living a short drive east of Morgantown

Cheat Lake is a lakeside community east of Morgantown, just off Interstate 68, offering a quieter suburban setting with water views and easy highway access. Triple Scott’s Cheat Lake rentals appeal to professionals, families, and anyone who wants a calmer, more scenic home base while staying within a 10-to-15-minute drive of WVU and downtown Morgantown.

Cheat Lake trades the density of the campus neighborhoods for space, greenery, and the recreation that comes with living near the water — boating, trails, and lakeside dining are all close by. Its position along I-68 makes commuting into Morgantown or out toward the region straightforward.

This is the right neighborhood if you value a suburban, residential atmosphere over walkability to campus, and don’t mind a short drive in exchange for a quieter setting and more room. It’s a popular choice for working professionals and families connected to WVU or Morgantown’s hospitals.

Reach out to see what’s currently available at Cheat Lake — inventory here is more limited than in the campus neighborhoods, so availability is worth confirming directly.
