Wow, really beautiful park connected to the WO&D trail. They have a sand volleyball court,…read moremanicured grass soccer field, and grass softball field, restrooms, a covered pavilion, and a kids playground with a fence around it. The park is well kept, I was really impressed. The playground equipment was in good standing with nothing being broken. There were swings, slides of various sides, a sand pit (which wasn't that nice but was okay), and a great merry go round. If this park gets boring, you can simply walk over to the other side of the interstate and see Bon Air park. There is a path going under the interstate that connects them. It's great because there is a lot of shade and there's even a shade garden in Bon Air park, as well as more restrooms and barbecue pits. There is also plenty of parking for this park. There's a parking lot and I'm sure you can also find spots in the neighborhood or even on the other side of the interstate adjacent to Bon Air park, if you are really desperate to find a spot and don't mind a short walk. My kids had an absolute blast at this playground. We will definitely be coming back!

This park is a gem near Bailey's Crossroads and Columbia Pike. There are 2 playgrounds, one for…read moretoddlers and one for older kids. The playground looks fairly new after renovation. There is also a basketball court and several picnic tables. The only downside is parking, which is limited to street parking. The two times I went there with my kid there were barely anyone so we got the whole park to ourselves!

Top secret playground and picnic spot buried in a post war neighborhood just a short distance away…read morefrom District Taco. This place is clean, stocked with brand new equipment including the teacup spinner seat that would make anyone over the age of 8 vomit, and also features a paved track around its perimeter that would be a good spot for training a tyke to bike. There are shady spots and benches for grownups seeking to escape the sun, always a bonus since there is some regulation on the books that require all playgrounds to be devoid of the slightest shadow at midday. Only drawback is that unlike many Arlington parks there are no restrooms, so of course after about 15 minutes of playing my daughter realized her bladder could no longer hold all the Boylan's cream soda she'd imbibed at D.T. with her lunch.

We love this park. It's a bit tucked away in a neighborhood not far from Westover, and there are so…read moremany different things to do in it that could occupy your kids. The best thing about it, in my opinion, is that there is a continuous looped trail for bicycling along the outskirts of the park. It's the closest thing you get to a fenced-in park without it actually being fenced in. (Keep in mind that it is pretty large, and it isn't necessarily a park you'd be able to see your kid at all times if he/she ran or biked to the other end). That being said, my kids loved coming here to practice biking and I liked that it was contained. The climbing structures are great, and the rock structures enthralled my kids. There are water fountains too, but alas, no bathrooms. No matter, it's still an awesome park regardless.

Nice people here and am pleased to have spent time here.

My son went down the slides so many times and laughed the same every time he rolled over at the end. There's a sandy area as well as swings (but no baby swings).

Wow, this place is huge! Here's a description of the park from its website:…read more This comprehensive 22-acre park is packed with everything you could want in a park. Enjoy a meal under the picnic shelter, let the kids romp in the playground, play baseball or softball on the two youth baseball/softball fields, practice your backhand on the two lighted tennis courts, shoot some free-throws on the lighted basketball court, or run around in the open drop-in field. Find out if your dog should play in the stream. The location honors Jennie Serepta Dean (1848-1913), founder of the Manassas Industrial School for Colored Youth.

Nice little spray ground and park with a fairly good variety of play equipment and options (in…read moreaddition to the spray ground on the left side of the entrance, there's also a large sand pit/play area, a couple swing sets, several other smallish but adequate climbing structures, open grass spaces, covered picnic table area, and other elements I can't quite remember at the moment. None of these are particularly amazing or updated like the fancy new stuff at many other playgrounds in the area, but all work perfectly well for kids (and parents) looking for a place to simply run and play. The area is fenced and gated (with a relatively child proof or at least child resistant locking mechanism) which I like a lot and wish all parks offered. I did not walk all the around to the back of the grassy area on the other side of the picnic structure to check to see if the fence went all the way around the entire park though, so I can't speak to the full "security" of the park overall, but it definitely seems securely fenced on the street side where all or most of the actual playground equipment is located, and I was able to watch my three kids play in different areas on either side fairly easily from my vantage point at the central picnic structure. It's not my kids' first choice of park in the area, given so many other nearby options like Quincy, Oak Grove, Woodstock, Woodlawn, Mosaic Park, Madison Manor and others, but it's a perfectly nice neighborhood park with a number of enticing elements like the spray ground, sand pit play area, covered picnic shelter, and several tennis and basketball courts. Particularly good park choice for birthday parties, btw.

This is a little park tucked into North Arlington across from the Arlington Science Focus School…read more There is a small parking lot or street parking is available. This is definitely for the 5 and under crowd IMO. There are no big slides, no extensive climbing apparatuses. There's 2 baby swings and 2 big swings. There's a large sand pit that includes an excavator for digging and a play kitchen. There is a 3 person seesaw and a tiny pirate ship. There are two small slides. The centerpiece is supposed to be a solar system themed spray park. Currently you can climb on the "planets". Water fountains are working. There are tennis courts and a small bike circle. If you have bigger kids, go elsewhere but this is perfect for toddlers!

Also cool was the music box feature,which played several songs including "row,row your boat", "here we go around the mulberry bush", and "if you're happy and you know it". The highlight for older kids is the stand-up merry-go-round. There is one of the swings where the adult and baby can swing together too. There is a long tunnel slide as well as a tiny slide for tots. The setting in the woods is nice too. Parking is available in the lot at the front of the path to the playground. The playground equipment is brand new; definitely worth a visit if you're nearby.

This has a lot of them, and good climbing equipment. The park is best for the 5 to 12 year old age. There are some unique playground parts to play on. I like the trees. Am relieved this park is here. All around here development is alarming. Parking is no stress. This park is close to so many attractions. My hope is the county will modernize this one again soon. If you have little ones who can wear you out, this should make them exhausted. That alone means please visit!
