Fletcher's Cove

Washington, D.C., United States

Fletcher's Cove (earlier and still colloquially, Fletcher's Boathouse) is a park and recreation area owned and managed by the National Park Service in The Palisades neighborhood of northwest Washington, D.C. Located at 4940 Canal Road between the Chain and Key Bridges, it is part of Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park. Fishing enthusiasts visit Fletcher's Cove for the spring run of shad, perch, and rockfish. Others come to boat on the Potomac River and bike, hike, and run the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal and other trails along the river. Fletcher's rents rowboats, canoes, kayaks, bikes, and paddle boards.
