Chesapeake: Our Favorite Spots

One of the things that I love about Hampton Roads is that everything is so close. Hop in the car and you can be at the beach, at a farm, or a settlement in revisiting 1607. Here are some of our favorites in Chesapeake. 

Spend a day at Bergey's and their neighbor Mount Pleasant checking out the animals and local goods. Details here

My favorite local playground for so many reasons. Check out Chesapeake's Fun Forest.

The Chesapeake Arboretum is a hidden gem that we love to visit on nice days. 


Spend a day picking fruits and veggies at Hickory Ridge Farm. They have a free kids play area, and during the busy season will often have some paid options for children. 


The last of the farms is Historic Greenbrier Farms, which has lots of free room for kids to play. Checkout their large tire swing and grab some goodies from the farm stand. 

This was actually our first visit as a family of four to Chuck E. Cheese, and I am so glad that we went! The boys loved it. Check out the post for the deals when visiting. 


Last but not least, Oak Grove Park's nice long loop of a walking trail. Checkout this post for details!
