Directions to Windsor Castle Park, 705
Cedar St., Smithfield VA from Highway 17: Turn onto Hwy 258/32 in Carrollton and drive 2.8 miles to a stoplight and bend in the road to the right, which continues Hwy 258. Continue on 258 into Smithfield and after 2 miles, stay left to continue on 258 Bypass (NOT 258Business/Church St) for approx. another 2.5 miles to Main St and turn Right. You will see brown park signs on the right side of road from this point on. Follow Main St for .3 miles to Underwood Ln, turn right, and take that 475 feet and turn right onto Cedar St. Follow Cedar for .9 mi to Jericho Rd, and turn left. Continue straight on Jericho for .4 mi then turn right onto Kayak Lane, where Parking Attendants will guide you to lot entry.
****CRITICAL INFO FOR BUSSES***: If bringing your team via bus, please follow the directions above, via Underwood, then Cedar Avenue, and then onto Jericho, instead of coming onto Jericho Ave directly off S. Church Street, further in town! Your GPS will likely encourage you to take Jericho straight off of S. Church Street, BUT DO NOT DO THAT, as the road is brick and cobblestone and includes a steep incline that Busses have trouble with. The suggested directions above simply enter the park from the other side and are safer for busses.
PLEASE REVIEW YOUR MAP/DIRECTIONS AND/ORSHARE THIS INFO WITH YOUR DRIVER!
