Colonial Beach Parks and Recreation areas are open from 8:00 a.m. to dusk daily.
Eleanor Park is on the waterfront along Irving Ave. in the 1300 block.
A Sunday evening game of Croquet took place here in the early 2020s.
Fitness event at Torrey Smith Recreation Park. There are sport courts, a tot lot and restrooms here.
Training with a pro athlete on Town Hill. Over 40 kids were able to train with and get tips and advice from a Soccer pro at this free event.
Castlewood Park on Lunsford Point has some great playground equipment and beautiful water views of both Monroe Bay and the Potomac River.
Washington Ave. Park is next to the Colonial Beach Community Garden and across the street from The Pink Poodle ice cream stand.
The Colonial Beach Community Center is on a large plot of land at the corner of Marshall and Nelson. Many Parks and Recreation events are held here all year round. A grant was received in March of 2025 to erect baseball equipment at one end of the field.
There's even a park for the pooches! Robin Grove Park became the Town's dog park some years ago.
It began almost as an offshoot of the Colonial Beach Outfitters and Colonial Beach Recreation Association groups. The Colonial Beach Community Foundation had also expressed interest in getting a group of this type started. The County of Westmoreland has one, the Town of CB did not.
The department oversees the Beach Ambassadors, which were funded with grant money during 2020. During the plandemic in 2021, volunteers walked the beaches, monitored activities, provided help and info on local ordinances and regulations and answered questions from visitors.
Bobby Duke was the former Director of the Colonial Beach Parks and Recreation department, guided by the P&R Commission and he kept busy organizing great events and activities for all to enjoy.
Keep an eye on this page and our events calendar for updates on the latest upcoming activities and events to be put on by this great department. For more information, contact Sally at sadams@colonialbeachva.gov
