There isn't much to do indoors. No park fee is charged in this area. The point of coming is of course to spend time outdoors. This is one of the areas where the canal is actually carried over a creek by an aqueduct, which is interesting to look at. As this section of the canal actually has water, a pedestrian bridge is necessary to traverse it (or you can drive over a one-lane bridge and park on the scenic side). This section of the canal is quiet, but as with the entire length of the trail, makes for excellent walking.

We had the very best weather during our trip. The Historical Bowles House is the actual C&O Visitors Center but it was closed. Definitely recommend and definitely going back again. It was all free to check out, explore and enjoy!!! Private parking lot.

Cullison Park is located on Mill Street, adjacent to the Rumsey Monument Park…read more This area was donated to the town by the Cullison Family. The well shaded park has a few pieces of playground equipment that are in good shape. The park was in use today by a couple of families with kids running about and having fun. Some more places for adults to sit and supervise would be ideal. There is street parking along Mill Street. [Review 15606 overall - 58 in West Virginia - 1110 of 2021.]

Deeper than it is wide, the park has a small half court basketball court and a playground area with swings and a slide. There is also a smooth path for walking and some seats for the adults to use while the kids are sitting. A couple picnic tables are the only other equipment here. The park is well shaded and there is a tall fence around it which I found a bit comforting. There is street parking in front. [Review 15611 overall - 63 in West Virginia - 1115 of 2021.]

I need someone to explain why this park has only three parking spaces. That's just nuts…read more Fortunately, there were only two other people here when I visited or I'd have had to park illegally and we can't have that. The centerpiece of Rumsey Park is the 75 foot tall white granite monument, a tribute to the man who invented, designed and engineered the steamboat in 1783 and overlooks the spot on the Potomac where it first sailed. This was the first successful application of steam to aid with navigation and in 1787 demonstrated it here at Shepherdstown Virginia. Though impressive, the commercial feasibility of the technology was widely questioned, and investors were hard to come by. Five years after his first successful demonstration, Rumsey died while pitching to a group of investors in England, his dream of commercial steamboats never fully realized. Of course, the park has a fab view of the Rumsey bridge and this curve of the Potomac River. Quite scenic just not enough parking. [Review 15607 overall - 59 in West Virginia - 1111 of 2021.]

[Coronavirus review] This is a small park, with an irksomely…read moresmall number of parking spaces (some metered parking is available on the street outside the gate). There were only three parking spaces, plus one handicap spot, and a loop that some people tried to park alongside of but which really didn't work well for that. It's a scenic overlook that gets you a view of both the road bridge and a rail bridge, as well as some massive columns for yet more bridges that no longer exist. The monument itself is apparently to the inventor of the steamboat. What's notable about the space these days is that it has a few picnic tables with a view, and all restaurants are takeout right now. Other people arrived at the park carrying the same taco takeout bags that I did. It's a good spot to eat in a pinch.
