Reviews
"Beautiful and very clean park! I am impressed with the amount and quality of facilities here! I just took a walk around here and it was pretty nice. It’s a huge park and I have not explored all of it yet but there are lots of trails and activities to do here! Definitely will go here next time when I have the chance to."
"A awesome park great for walking and for the kids playing! There is plenty of shade and there is no cost to enter only if you want to do the attractions"
"Beautiful park with many amazing activities and adventures . The park is educational for little ones and handicap accessible."
"The park was practically empty . That was great for us. We had a great time and will definitely be back. The restrooms were clean. The only thing we didn't like was the neighbors walking their dogs who lived in the area and walked through one of our campsites. We thought that was rude."
"Wonderful park with loads to do. Worth the trip from DC. The playground was nice and had a lot for kids to do. Probably better for older kids (4+) than toddlers. The nature center was great! Lots of animals and the people working there were so nice. They let the kids feed the fish while they tended to a turtle in the same tank. They didn’t have to do that, so it was very nice. There are also plenty of bathrooms all around the grounds which is great with little kids. The trails were well marked and easy to follow. The Farm had a good variety of animals and the signs were very informative. Over all a great morning spent there."
