Great place to park for the Capital Crescent or C&O Canal. Tricky entrance that only allows one car at a time. Watch for entering & exiting vehicles! Much easier to enter from the westbound direction.

Site of Fletcher's Cove parkrun, a free 5k run that takes place every Saturday. Great spot in Washington for fishing, canoeing, pic-nics...

Very fun and affordable. Entrance is a little difficult esp. If you are coming on a weekday early AM because canal rd is one way.

The water fountain here actually works—and the water is cold! Truly a godsend during long runs on the C&O trail.

It's very hard to get in there..the main entrance is too small only one car can exit and enter the area...
