About the Venue

Dunncroft/Castle Point Park Spray Park is a free seasonal spray area inside a larger Henrico County park in Glen Allen. Families can pair water play with the playground, picnic shelter, trails, sports space, and even disc golf. This is a practical local splash stop with familiar public-park amenities rather than a destination-style aquatic attraction. It is especially convenient for families who want a casual drop-in visit with restrooms close by.
