About

Quarterpath Park Recreation Center is the City of Williamsburg's multi-use recreation facility located adjacent to Quarterpath Park. For visiting families, it offers access to a swimming pool, gym facilities, and various programmed activities at city facility pricing — typically more affordable than hotel pool alternatives or commercial venues.

The combination of the indoor recreation center with the adjacent Quarterpath Park creates a versatile all-conditions facility: indoor pool and gym activities when weather prevents outdoor play, with the free outdoor park available on good days.

For families staying in Williamsburg for an extended period, a drop-in pool session or morning gym visit breaks the routine of paid attraction days in a way that's both budget-friendly and genuinely refreshing. Check the facility schedule for open swim times, which is the most family-relevant offering for visitors.

Sunday hours start at 1PM rather than the morning opening time of other days — plan weekend visits accordingly.
