Nice little park. A few pavilions to sit at. Playground is a bit unkempt, maybe due to covid, but it was grassy. Nice water area with a little dock.

I love the whole place its very scenic and breathtaking. My favorite thing is the dog park its the only place my dog can play safely without a leash.

Nice quiet park to relax and enjoy a beautiful day. Kids were catching little fish with almost every cast

Beautiful park....very clean

Very pretty park with playgrounds for the kids. Lots of fishing as well. Wish there were nature trails.

Beautiful park..

Lovely lake park outside of Culpeper, VA. It was brisk the day we visited, but this brought out an abundance of wildlife, including a number of waterfowl as well as a Red Tailed Hawk and a pair of Bald Eagles in the trees at the end of the lake. Only negative to our experience was the trash we found in the boat ramp area, left by some thoughtless park users. Otherwise, the park was quite pristine.

Ok place to let the kids play and parents can enjoy the lake view. Other than the little play ground they have 3 or 4 Pavillions for grilling and have a small gathering. I did observe a couple sketchy transactions between a Ford truck that pulled up and just sat there while atleast 3 others pulled up next to it and left. So....just be aware

Sunday afternoon, the last one in October, clear skies and a warm sun enveloped our birthday party at the reserved shelter. All shelters were full and many people were enjoying this location. Theres a small playground, a bathroom, lots of parking and plenty of shore access for fishing and boating. Dogs must be leashed. The shelter and picnic tables were in good condition. Trash cans had plenty of room for our parties disposable items. A pleasant surprise was the ice cream truck from Big Daddyz ice cream came through. All in all a good day at this park. Well return. 5 out of seven stars for a perfect score.

I didnt know there was a dog park here. I love it.

Lovely little park and lake! Enjoyed kayaking around!

Multiple open air shelters, playgrounds, lots of cut grass to walk, and a gorgeous lake with fishing and boat access. Whats not to love?

Nice place for dad to cast while children play in the park area.

Nice views but the picnic shelters need love.

Nuce to see families out, fishing and grilling. But, Too many leave trash out on ground when trash cans are everywhere.Beer and soda cans, whiskey bottles, tons of cig butts.Really Sad.

Wonderful place to see birds, including Bald Eagles. Dog park. playgrounds for kids.

Was there for a birthday party in one of the pavilions..it was convenient to get to... bathrooms close by..lovely area...only negative was the construction for engineering improvement to the dam...long run will be good thing. There is a playground.

Family place...great time fishing with our daughter!!

Beautiful spot to enjoy with my wife.

Nice place to take the family

Perfect for the kids! So much fun!

What a peaceful place to go for a walk or sit to watch the lake.

Great place to boat, fish, play frisbee, take pictures of your Jeep, and to just relax!

Love this part to take my family! Only thing that needs to be fixed is the geese! People need to stop feeding them! Their wild!

Great playground by the lake.

Beautiful property, playgrounds and dog park

Good to relax but terrible for fishing cause there is no fish

Always good for a small bass

Boat access to Mountain Run Lake with appropriate permits; small dock by boat launch; I think that fishing is permitted, with license and per regulations; picnic pavilions and restrooms, although I dont know if the restrooms are open often, or have soap and water; grassy dog park; tall pine or related evergreen trees in some parts; a good playground that gets some usage in the evenings and on weekends; some swings. Beautiful lake and sunset views. Driving by, you might even see the mountains in the background.I believe that it is maintained by a local charity group -- maybe the Lions Club. Not a huge park, but its decent-sized and quite nice nonetheless.Gravel parking, but I think that the roads are paved. Doable even in a low-clearance vehicle.The first time you go, the entrances are along a hilly road, so you might miss the entrances. The main section has two narrow entry/egress lanes. I think that there is a third entrance for fishing as well. One of the entry/egress lanes is along a bit of a hillside. Try not to let it phase you too much if someone is coming toward you. Just drive slowly, and youll probably do just fine. Enjoy! =)

Beautiful location, nice view of the lake and the dam, big dog park, parking is just a gravel lot so be considerate about how you park.

Could use a little shade

The fenced in dog park is so great! The park itself is peaceful and family oriented.

Nice place

Great day of fishing and very beautiful scenery. Gotta love being by the water the best therapy

I really like this park, the dog park is pretty big and nice my dog had a great time today. And to all the people leaving bad reviews cause theyre working on it are crazy cause clearly they will clean the mess when they finish, its not gonna look like that forever

Nice quiet day park, picnic tables and lake with geese.

I would like to give it 5 stars but not until they finish the construction project and repair the landscaping.

Beautiful view from the dog park.

We love visiting here as a family. There are lots of things to interest our young sons including swing sets, playground equipment, a pier, picnic area, fishing opportunities and lots of ducks and geese to feed on the lake. They are currently doing some major earthworks so my 3 year old spent most of the visit watching the big construction vehicles

I am sure this place will be better to visit after all the construction is finished. We just went there and the place looks awful. Not pretty at all. There is stuff everywhere. And the are only portapotties. The one I went into had not been emptied in a long time. The lake looks pretty. But like I said the visitor section looks awful.

Lots of space beautiful scenery, playground area.

Was there for picnic. It was nice

The park is beautiful and well maintained. The lake this year seemed to have something wrong. The water was low and we could see dead fish on the embankment. There was also a seriously hurt goose or large duck. Some animal expert needs to visit.

I love this park and there is something for everyone in the family. Boat ramp, small pier to fish from, playground, picnic shelters, and a dog park plus lots of open space to run and free play. There is also a public bathroom. Since they are repairing the dam now, the water levels have been lowered.

Beautiful Park and Lake .

Pretty nice

Better but not enough activity for kids

The park was hard to find but once you get there or was worth the trip. Its a beautiful park, the shelters are big, and the playground is in great shape for the children. The bathroom is centrally located between all the shelters. The grill is small, so bring your own.

Love the Dog Park.

Good for having a relaxed day with your family

Fantastic dog park and areas for children to play.

Great place to fish with children.

Love the dog park.

Boat license and fishing permit required for the lake. Water is usually a little muddy. Smallmouth bass fishing is good. There is a boat ramp. Swings, playset for kids. Pavilions. Fenced dog park where dogs can run off-leash. Good parking. Dam is currently under construction.

Great place to take the kids to play or to go fishing. Very quite place. You can feed the ducks or just walk for excerise. Beautiful views

Beautiful! The lake was full!

Wonderful time with family and view beautiful

My familys been coming here for years to have the family reunion and its been torn down. the damns and the docks were all washed up on grass and the lake was less than appealing for both us and the geese.

All torn up right now. Putting in a dam. Kids play area, pavillians, dog park are UNaffected. Should be done by November.

I go to Mountain Run Lake Park mainly for fishing. While it once was a real honey hole, it has deteriorated over the years, I guess mostly due to overfishing.In addition to a VA state fishing license, one is also required to buy a Mtn. Run/Pelham lake fishing permit, and if you have one or more boats, you will need to buy a sticker for each one. Fishing permits and boat stickers each cost $20 for 2 years and are available at Town Hall on Main St.The park also features athletic fields, picnic pavilions, a playground, a dog park, and lots of space for hiking and other activities. Boat rentals and bait sales are NOT AVAILABLE.

A great place if it ever gets water back in it lol

We enjoyed our time out there

Get park for the whole family. There are several pavilions for family events that can also be reserved through the parks department. The play ground is pretty good sized and well taken care of. There is also a lake where you can go fishing, which I thinknis catch and release but Im not sure. Boats are allowed on the lake, but they arent allow to use much more than a trolling motor. No swimming in the lake. The is also a great fenced dog run area. There is an open field for playing soccer or football.The park is open until sunset.

There is so much to do here!Playgrounds for kids,Pavilions for events,Grilling out/having a picnic,Lake for fishing,I even saw people doing wedding photos here at one time!

It has changed since the dam was built.

Secluded park with plenty of fish. Great for spending the day. There are clean bathrooms and a dog park

Favorite park in Culpeper County. Gorgeous sunset views with the lake and mountains as the backdrop.

The park is currently a construction site for the dam that they are working on, but the playground, etc are still open to the public. Due to the construction, there is not much parking.

Great for a picnic or family bbq. Beautiful lake view, fishing is iffy. Best of out on a boat. Large field for football or soccer

We came here at the right time, not only great wine they were grilling food and had a group of medieval folks playing around.

Great place for a kids bday party and play area clean! Lots of wide open spaces!

Awesome Park for weddings

Lovely lake park. Clean and managed.

Great place to escape

This picture says it all

Currently under construction. Not a pleasant place to visit.

Was more pretty last yr.

The work they are doing to the dam has messed up the water level, I would not recommend going until things are back to normal

Beautiful! We had fun on the playground and watching the geese & ducks!

It was nice. There where a lot of people there

Peaceful, clean, dog run, pavilions, playground and restrooms

Very clean small amount of construction still at entrance

Gated dog park; very scenic and beautiful views of Mountain Run Lake.
