We’ve renovated the picnic shelter and replaced the playground equipment that had been damaged by Hurricane Isabelle. This wooded park is a great place for children to play; even during the warmest days of summer the shade trees keep it cool. Stop by and see for yourself; we think you’ll agree, the place looks great!

In the mid 1800s, Aquia Landing was the terminus of the RF&P Railroad. Here, passengers took steamboats up the Potomac River to Washington, DC. During the Civil War, it was the site of the first naval engagement, and an important logistical access point, controlled largely by the Union troops. When the Union arrived in Stafford, this pivotal transportation point also became a destination for many enslaved people who sought refuge behind Union lines and were transported from this site to points north or abroad. Noted freedom-seekers who passed through this point include William & Ellen Craft, Henry "Box" Brown, and John Washington. This site was designated to the NPS National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom in April 2009, and a new exhibit is in development. A Civil War Trail marker is located in the park. Today, open year-round, this historic site and public park offers a riverside beach, sunbathing, fishing, picnicking, volleyball, and swimming (NO lifeguard on duty). Two large shelters are available to rent for special events (540-658-5019 to reserve). Alcohol is not permitted. HOURS: mid-Mar to 31 Oct, 8am-8pm. 31 Oct to mid-Mar, 8am-5:30pm.
