Tappahannock Splash Pad & Playground

On a hot Virginia summer day, this splash pad is where pretty much every kid in town ends up. It’s right in the middle of Tappahannock, so you can grab lunch or run errands nearby while the kids wear themselves out in the water. Fair warning — it’s not wheelchair accessible, so keep that in mind if you need it to be. Still, for a small town, it’s a solid spot that the local families genuinely use and appreciate.
