A fun, satisfying outdoor experience awaits the whole family when you plan a trip to the Northwest River Park and Campground.

There are excellent camping facilities, nature trails, picnic shelters, fishing, swimming, play areas, and even a new “Dude Ranch” mini golf course attraction. The park features 70 campsites and two cabins that are available from April 1st to November 30th.
The art of putting on a great show is something that is always being practiced and improved upon at the New Theatre of Chesapeake. This is an impressive entertainment venue that features the work of the city's premier professional theater organization. While the main focus of this group is musical theater, they also present an interesting variety of other productions throughout the season. You will not be disappointed when you are a part of the many great on-stage moments that these talented local and regional performers consistently deliver.
Even though Fort Norfolk requires a little extra effort to visit if you are in Chesapeake, the short drive is well worth it if you are a fan of history. This fort is the last remaining structure of an original 19 forts that were built back in 1794 on the order of President George Washington. When you arrive you will be immediately struck by the fort's outward design, and once you step through the archway that leads to the interior, you will feel like you have traveled back in time. The staff members on hand will be happy to answer any of your questions. There is also an expansive 4-acre landscape that surrounds this historical site.
A great show is something you can always count on, no matter what is happening on stage at the Willett Hall in Portsmouth.

The Willett seats approximately 1,980 people and guests are treated to an incredible array of concerts and events that include classical, big band, country, pop, blues and jazz performers.
