Rappahannock County Park is a family- and dog-friendly park located in the heart of Washington, Virginia. Renowned for its pet-friendly trails and scenic natural environment, this park offers an ideal destination for dog owners looking for a tranquil escape. Enjoy a stroll on the hiking trails that lead down to a picturesque creek, a perfect spot for dogs who love to swim or splash around.
The park features accessible amenities like picnic tables, a large pavilion, and public restrooms, making it suitable for both small family outings and larger gatherings. There’s also a playground for children, open playing fields shaded by tall trees, and plenty of green space. With wheelchair accessible entrances and parking, as well as seating throughout the area, everyone in the family is welcome.
Nice, quaint park with plenty to offer. Small playground with swings, tennis courts, trails, etc.
Worth a stop if you are in the area.
This is a great park to take your children. The 1st full weekend in June you can trout fish for free.
I brought my two youngest boys here on a weekday and it was quiet enough to enjoy the sound of nature around us while they played in the wooden fort and snacked at the picnic table.
I mostly just take my dog there to seeing in the little creek/river. They have some great trails so it is really easy to get down to the river.
We went to this park for an evening picnic on April 30. There were 80-100 in our group and we reserved the entire park as I understand it. There was a large variety of activity things for children of all ages to do. Skateboard ramps, corn hole, shuffleboard, different things to climb on, a swing set, nicely mowed playing fields with shade, a hiking trail that some people from our group used. We pretty much filled up the parking lot. The pavilion was large enough to accommodate our group very well. There were two average restrooms in the end of the pavilion. I saw a chimney thing in the center of the pavilion but didn’t look at it too closely. I assumed it was for campfire cooking.
I loved all the nice grass and tall trees everywhere!
We brought our own blown up trampoline along for the evening.
