Trivial I know, but sometimes these things matter. The Port-O-Let would also be a big draw
There could be some shade along the western side of the parking lot, but the whole thing is close to the Shenandoah River, so it should be cooler, overall, than the access road. There are also picnic tables if you want to pack a lunch. But it's a newly developed area, and was cleared of big trees where they graded the parking area. Given time, this should improve.
