Lazy river

What DC-area water parks have lazy rivers?

We're doing a staycation next week and that's one of my kids number one wish after hearing a cousin rave about a lazy river experience at a resort. No resort for us, but hoping to find a lazy river. Also open to trying tubing if there's anywhere fairly safe and not too far from DC.

Went tubing at Harper’s ferry last weekend. It was great.

Reston Water Mine. Get there early.

The MLK public pool in Silver Spring has one if you want a local, cheap option at some point. There’s often a line, though.

I know you said staycation but Busch gardens in Williamsburg has a great water park/ it’s not a bad drive if you leave early

Yes! So much fun too!

I would do Harper’s ferry instead. The camps make the water parks miserable by bringing Hoard’s of children. It’s a random Tuesday but swamped with kids from multiple camps.

I didn't think of summer camps when I thought we'd have a mid week advantage. Thanks for the reminder. I wonder if the parks would know if I called if they had big groups reserved.

If you go after 1pm most of the camp groups should be gone.

AV Symington Center in Leesburg is a smaller water park— it has a lazy river, a few slides, lily pads.
