Cool off & take few lazy floats down the Shenandoah River. I personally recommend some water shoes and bringing some kayak leashes to ensure your group’s tubes all stay together! You can rent a cooler tube for your drinks & snacks as well. ;)
We have spent many days/mornings walking along the C&O canal and Potomac River! There is plenty of parking at this location. If you’re in the mood for fishing or kayaking you can bring your gear - there is a boat launch at this location as well.
This cafe has a really nice outdoor seating area/courtyard. They are known for their sandwiches & fries, offer some healthy options, and has a funky college town vibe. It’s one of our favorite places! We do recommend reservations as it’s quite the popular place among locals. Right down the street you can walk to a boat launch/picnic area along the Potomac River too!
