Waller Mill Park is a 2,705-acre park

situated around a reservoir that was opened

to the public in July 1972. The 360-acre lake

is open for fishing, boating, pedal boating,

canoeing and kayaking with a tunnel

connecting the upper and lower sections of

the lake. Numerous picnic tables, picnic

shelters, play fields, and playground

equipment are nestled among the trees

providing scenic picnic areas.

The Park Office is located near the main

parking lot and the dock area. This is where

you can receive assistance renting boats,

canoes, kayaks, making shelter

reservations, as well as information on

memberships and walking trails. Restroom

facilities are located in the breezeway of the

building. A retail shop includes items that

you would need for fishing including poles,

tackle and bait. Also available for sale are

bottled water, snacks, soda and everyone’s

favorite...ice cream!

Be sure to keep you and your family’s

commitment to health & fitness strong by

getting out and enjoying the many amenities

our park has to offer. Enjoy your visit!

Anglers can rent one of the park’s rowboats for a daily rate or if they prefer, a boat ramp is available for launching their own small boat. Electric motors may be used, and are

available for rent at the Park Office. No bank

fishing is allowed at the park; however, two fishing piers are available free of charge. A Virginia state freshwater

fishing license is required to fish.

Disc Golf Waller Mill Park is home to an 18-hole Disc Golf course. Disc Golf is played in much the same fashion as traditional golf but uses thrown discs instead of a struck ball. The sport, which was first played in the 1970s, shares a similar goal with traditional golf of completing a hole in the fewest number of strokes (or in this case, throws!). Players have a

choice of two tee pads at each hole

from which to throw their discs along the fairway towards the

metal basket.
