Always on the lookout for new parks, we came across Clemyjontri as we wanted to see if there was…read moreany good parks around the area. Celmyjontri looked like it was the best that was close by. They have a merry go round, and is a big park. Enough for kids of all ages to run around and get rid of all their energy. The carousel though is open on weekends and is $5 per ride. You can also open for private events, but I don't know how much extra that would be. It seems that it's a pretty popular park for birthdays as every time we've been here there was a party going on. Overall, this is a great park and if you have kids, is definitely a place to check out.

There's much to love about this park: 1) Parking- there's a large, free parking lot at the front. 2) Grounds- there's a small playground, fields, and plenty of trees to give cover in the heat. 3) Garden- a large community garden is in the back of the park near a small bridge over a creek. Nearby are wild raspberry and blackberry bushes. 4) Farmers market- Friday mornings they have a farmers market in the parking lot. This is a true neighborhood spot.

We saw a few weddings here last weekend. Plenty trails and photo ops! Looks like a lot of people come here for maternity shoots and engagement shoots- the photographers have a special entrance ticket and rules to abide by. Not free entry but very well maintained and a beautiful experience for families or couples.

Meadowlark is the best spot to view cherry blossoms in the DMV, hands down. Visit on a weekday…read moreduring peak bloom if you can, but even on a busy day you can get better views of the blossoms than at the Tidal Basin. Don't sleep on this hidden gem during cherry blossom season! The rest of the botanical garden is well worth a visit, with a greenhouse, polished garden favorites, and wild woodland scenery. There are also children's gardens and a small playground, as well as many benches with different views to enjoy. One of my favorite spots is the fairy garden right outside the entrance, with all kinds of small-scale flowers. Admittedly, I've only been to Meadowlark during two seasons and have yet to witness fall and winter. I'm eager to go for the holiday lights, which I've heard great things about.

But I also start at Carderock for a change or if that is how the race is set up. I don't do much in the park itself. But I see it is a lovely, underused facility (which I don't want to ruin). There is, as people have mentioned, a military facility nearby. I wonder as I drive around, if they are conducting surveillance or if you'd get in trouble for doing something such as taking photographs. I've never had an issue though, if you were wondering. I have gotten lost, however, because it's not quite clear (and GPS is not precise) how you get to where you want to go once you take the exit. I recommend Carderock highly for a hike. I believe it also is a nice place to hang out, even if you don't get to the trail (but why would you go here and not at least take a gander at the water).

There is a nice bathroom facility though and plenty of picnic sites. Several trails along the gorge walls with slippery rocks so wear correct footwear.

It's close to a number of apartment and condo communities. Parking is a cinch, and the playground is basic, but good for little ones. There's nothing worth driving miles to get here for. Yet if in the area, comfortable grounds to read a book. The basketball court is extremely well maintained. Have gotten several games of HORSE in. Tyson's is quite a cluster, but this provides a reprieve. If in the area it's basic but can offer some recreational opportunities.

There's no parking nearby so you'll have to make do with what there is. It is just okay.

Cars cannot drive through here. It is located in the Yorktown neighborhood. It is true that it has a small drainage creek that runs through beside a paved path and two bridges to cross within the confines of the small park. It just goes straight, no real turn off except to go into other local neighborhoods that surrounded it. It's a cute walk, but doesn't have anything kid friendly in it. Just a walk through.
