Constructed in 1933, Leeman Field was the largest enclosed baseball field in the world for two and a half decades. The ball field encompassed 15 acres with a high board fence and sheltered hundreds of fans in a wooden grand stand.
Facilities at the 33 acre park now include: swimming pool, picnic pavilions, playground, sports fields, horse show ring, amphitheater, tennis courts, horseshoe pits, volleyball pit, fairgrounds, and tractor pull. A walking track around Leeman will soon extends across the river and joins the Greenway along the river to a Riverbend shopping area.
Located just off U.S. 421 North in Pennington Gap, Leeman Field is open year-round and is within one mile of our scenic Stone Face Rock.
Enjoyed the RV Park, very well kept, quiet while we were there. Free firewood was nice.
We will be back.
Nice park! Hidden gem nestled in the valley, surrounded by mountains. I have been visiting the area for nearly 20 years and only discovered this park 2 weeks ago. Although not spectacular in regards to facilities, the simplicity and geographic beauty of the park make it a very pleasant experience. The park has a campground, picnic areas, playgrounds, baseball facilities and a pool. However, my favorite park feature is the paved walking/bike path which follows along the river. My partner and I love to walk the path, which includes a nice bridge to cross the river. Today was my second visit during vacation to the area. After now finding this great "hidden gem" of a park, I will certainly visit again when vacationing in the area!
Though we only stayed here as a stopover on our way home to Maryland, it was a really nice little park. Clean, great long pull-through site (#4), with full hook-ups. Level too, so we didn't have to unhitch, which was perfect! Quiet neighbors, and a very active sports/community/fairgrounds/park made it an interesting place with beautiful scenery too!
Great find. Small campground that is big rig friendly. Very well maintained. Only disadvantage is the office is not onsite. Checked in on phone, set up and then went to city hall to make payment. Very reasonable.
