George Washington Park 6 Bainbridge Avenue, Portsmouth, VA 23702

"Didn't have any kid friendly areas. It's a skate park."

"Decent little modern playground for the little ones. Skatepark for the juvenile delinquents. Open field for the grownups to be boring adults in.. The ONLY reason I didn't give it five stars is that the neighborhood can be a bit much at times.. oh n there are no restrooms"

"Sharing many similarities with Barron skateboard park in Windsor Ontario Canada, this park is great! The layout of the park is perfect. You can hit the transition ramps or skate the street obstacles or both. There’s something for all levels of riders. Flat rails, round rails, mini ramp, banks, manny pad, slappy curb, etc. There’s also a few DIY obstacles as well (see photos). The Art work is appropriate, it’s vandalism or tagging. There’s a grass area and a playground within a few feet of the park (I skated while my kids played at the park and I was able to keep an eye on them and still have a quick sesh). If you need skateboard parts Hard Times Skate Shop is up the street (within walking/ Skating distance). Hard Times is one of few Black owned skate board shops in the world. None of the ramp material has shifted (which would make some things unsafe to skate), the concrete is smooth (no crunchy spots) and the park didn’t have any garbage around the area. It looked well maintained. There’s also free parking around the park as well. If I’m ever in the area I’d go back and skate here for sure. Great park for the community, it’s close to homes, not too close to the main road and it’s accessible to all. I had a great time here and do recommend it. Check out my other reviews on google. Thanks for reading!"

"It's a bit small, but relaxing. Good for a small birthday party, or cook outs while letting the kids play on the swings and other fun things. And if not a cookout, maybe you could have lunch or dinner from a local restaurant, there's plenty to choose from locally."

"Overall it was an ok place to take your kids, however my children were very disappointed in the maintenance and variety of things to do. Great for a few minutes of free time, but my kids were bored within 10 minutes… the slides were freezing in the winter and the metal was scalding in the summer. It just left a lot to be desired for such a prime location! With no restrooms or fountain it would be hard to spend any significant amount of time there."
