This has been a problem for years and only underscores the urgency of getting Widewater State Park in Stafford County open for business.
Stafford County has no public water access. Two years ago, funding for all three phases of Widewater State Park's buildout was funded in the state budget, but was removed after private campground operators complained about damage to their business.
We did get Phase I of three funded and held a groundbreaking last March on a canoe launch and other amenities but no public bathrooms.
Next year we need to fight to get all three ohases funded. There is clearly demand for more parks on the Potomac River and we need to get this funded as soon as possible so Virginians can enjoy their River.
