We had a bbq on 8/31/19. I must say the turnout was amazing. My husband and I arrived at 1pm (our area was cleaned by staff the day before) to set up the tables, grill, food, drinks, and to pay for the paddle boat rentals. Instead of renting for $5 per hour, we paid $20 for 7 hrs, and had the guests go in groups of 4. We were at pavilion #1 which had the volleyball net, they provided corn hole, whiffle ball, frisbees, hoola hoops for us. My sister in law and father in went fishing. The beautiful ducks can out to join us, they were very friendly 🦆🦆..The kids park and bathrooms were right across in walking distance, although we didn't have the electricity hook up we had water hook up. We rented a generator (for music) from home depot for $50 for the duration of the bbq.. Clean up was easy, they provided us with four 40-60 gallon garbage bags. Monday morning I went back to the office and they refunded me $30. If we were going to continue residing in VA I will continue having events here. It's worth the money. I reccomend this park to anyone who want to enjoy their bbq, party, baby...
