About the Virginia Point Park
Virginia Point Park is a beautiful park and tourist attraction located in Kenova, West Virginia. The park features the historic Dreamland Pool, which was once the largest swimming pool in the United States east of the Mississippi River. Visitors can enjoy swimming in the Olympic size pool or the shallow kiddie pool, as well as playing tennis or basketball on the courts. The park also has an amphitheater, dressing rooms, and food courts for visitors to enjoy.
The Dreamland Pool was first opened in 1926 and featured a three-story pavilion with a dance floor where famous Big Bands performed in the 1930s and 1940s. Although a fire destroyed the pavilion in 1972, the pool survived and was conveyed to the City of Kenova in 1973. The Kenova Parks & Recreation Board now oversees the operation of the pool.
In addition to the pool, Virginia Point Park offers access to the Big Sandy and Ohio Rivers with a large boat ramp and camping facilities. The park features multipurpose sports fields, covered shelters, bathrooms, and excellent fishing opportunities along the rivers. Visitors can enjoy the beautiful views of Ohio and Kentucky from the park and relax in the peaceful surroundings.
Towne Square is another highlight of Virginia Point Park, serving as the center for concerts and special events sponsored by the city. Located near the Municipal Building, the Square has hosted weddings, concerts, and street fairs, providing a vibrant and lively atmosphere for visitors to enjoy. With its rich history and scenic beauty, Virginia Point Park is a must-visit destination in West Virginia.

Reviews of Virginia Point Park
"It's a very beautiful and peaceful place to fish have a picnic and sit and watch the water"
"Beautiful view of Ohio River and Sandy River meeting. You can see Kentucky & Ohio on the West Virginia side Tri-States it's called. Views of river traffic with tug boats pushing barges. Great fishing area. Not a very safe swimming area. But at the entrance to Virginia Point Park during summer is an outdoor swimming called Wonderland also a historic point of interest. Enjoy!"
"Clean, quiet park setting where WV, OH, and KY meet. Camping available, fishing allowed as well."
"Where do I begin... So the idea that you can stand in one state and look at 2 others is cool. You can do that there. On the other hand. It is a very small park and there were approximately 10 campers and scattered tents. Some of which appeared to be permanent residents, or at least long term. You could tell the tents had been mowed around for a long time, by the height of the vegetation. The shore line is riddled with trash, which I'm sure is hard to control being it is on the river, but it wouldn't have taken much to clean the small "beachy" area they have. I love traveling and West Virginia in particular but this park is disgusting."
"I enjoy going to Virginia Point. The area is very well maintained. I really enjoy walking near the rivers and watching the sunset. It's a good area to fish as well. The only negative for me is they don't have an actual bathroom there, only port-a-potties."
