    Great early voting location in Fairfax County. Easy parking and exits. No excuses, perform your civic duty & cast your vote early.

    Why is there not a zero stars option? I would rate this place zero stars. The name of this place…read morehas changed a number of times, but no improvements have been made. This place is extremely outdated and dirty. It's just disgusting. You walk in to find the carpeting of the steps extremely worn down and peeling off at the sides, as it is everywhere else in the building. You walk in to see a big window overseeing the room of inflatables. This facility hosts parties and sports events. We were there for a birthday party and the party rooms are downstairs. To get to the party rooms, you walk down the stairs to a filthy hallway with disgusting turf carpeting and muggy air. I'm sure this facility has a long list of health violations. List of cons: - The restrooms are located inside of grungy looking locker rooms, so you pose the risk of having your child seeing people changing - There is no supervision in the inflatables room. Parents are responsible for their own kids - There is no system to ensure that kids leave with their parents. Anyone can walk out with your kids - My kid wandered into the sporting facility area of the lower level and fell into a rain puddle that resulted from a leaky ceiling - There are random puddles in the inflatables room from leaky ceilings (read: MOLD!) - The air in the lower level can be quite muggy during warmer months of the year (read: MOLD!) - There were buckets catching the leaking water from the ceiling at various places of the facility (I saw them on two separate visits) - Outdoor parking can be limited, depending on what other events are being held there on the same day List of pros: - No time limitation (but why would you want to stay here?) - I assume that it's cheaper here - Outside food is permitted for parties hosted here Although I hate this place, kids don't seem bothered by the filthiness of this place and seem to have a lot of fun.

    I came here for a friend's birthday party several weekends ago and found this place to be at the…read moreBOTTOM OF THE LIST of kids indoor play area category in Virginia. The place is very much run down, filthy and gym locker rooms are used as bathroom for children!!! They have showers in the bathroom. hahahaha. I don't know about you but I don't want my kids going in there to use the bathroom and accidentally seeing nude people in the lockers. Looks like this place used to be some sort of gym that they attempted to convert over to a kids play area. Doesn't look right and feel right as the room was intended and design for other purpose other than a kids play area. It doesn't look like they had safety for the children in mind and everything looks old and dirty. Like they decided to blatantly throw together some cheap inflatables and try to copy other more successful children's play area like Bubble Bounce, Fight, Rebounderz, Monkey Joe's, etc. As mentioned, they did not have children in mind for their "party place". In addition to throwing together some inflatables in an old gym/sports complex NOT intended for young children, they have this constant crowd of people that comes into the building to play soccer and other sports as the building runs other activities. I see kids during their birthday events getting mixed and lost with the sporting event crowd. With no signs of security or atleast someone checking in the people, I can potentially see some safety related issues. And the Parking. Don't get me started on Parking. We had to park across the street about a quarter a mile away at some other parking lot, carrying two toddlers back to the party place. This place seems to do too many things at once and their parking lot is full due to sporting events held there, while the parents of parties end up parking somewhere else risking oncoming traffic and towing of cars. I would rather spend my hard earned money and drive a little further away to businesses that have their environment set up for young children in mind and for their safety. IT'S WORTH IT! Somewhere where it's meant for children such as Kid Junction, Pump It Up, SkyZone etc. I can't put a price on peace of mind as the safety of my children is at the top of my priority. I will NOT be coming back.

    I used to belong to this pool but we left and joined another local pool. On paper, this pool…read morechecked off a lot of boxes that I was looking for; semi-walking distance, sports teams, community spot, activities, place to hold functions, snack bar, etc. So why the three stars??? it may even be too many. For starters, it is HEAVILY shaded which in turn creates a ripple effect of cold water, cold kids, cold adults, and lots of mosquitoes. When my son was really young we would go in the afternoon and there was hardly ever anyone there and come evening time forget about it with the water temp, brrrrrr, & the mosquito fest!!! We also held one of his bday parties here and rented the pavilion and we had some issues with the pavilion lights not working & the board member that was "helping" us was a jerk about it and rather rude to us. We paid to rent the pavilion with lights & all, no thank you for your attitude! Like most pools do, they have tennis courts, a playground, a Pavillion, Friday Food Trucks (non-pool members can enjoy because they are in the parking lot), float nights, swim/dive teams, and many other events. But like I said, pretty much every pool has these amenities; the other two neighborhood pools, SHRA & SHBR have all of this as does my current pool, AS&T (Annandale Swim & Tennis) but they all have SUN... yes, fun in the sun! This pool also requires all members, regardless of how you do your pool (sports teams & functions or not), to do a co-op of "working" or pay for your volunteer time required. My current pool does not unless you are on the sports teams. It is located on a beautiful piece of property but sadly that's where it ends.

    Oh my goshhhh the staff is sooooo nice! I went this evening to look at the Broyhill Rec Center…read morebecause I'm looking for a pool to join. The front desk guy who greeted me was super nice! He let me look around and told me about the property. He said he really liked working there and how great the members were. Driving up it all looks so lovely. Everything was clean and there was tons of seating. I ended up having a few more questions and a girl came and helped me. Margaret mentioned she was only subbing today but she was an absolute gem with info about the pool, the Atlantic staff and other pools in the area. She made such a great impression and my only reason for possibly not joining is that the trees are beautiful but block the sun quite a bit and I'm looking to join a pool for the exact purpose of being in the sun... lots of sun.
