It's still a mystery how to enter the trail, but this is such a beautiful neighbourhood park that…read moreis easy to navigate. After parking in the lot off Melville Ln, we basically walked through a small forest to get on to the trail at the back of one of the baseball fields. Soon came a creek with stepping stones over it, then the real fun began. Clearly parking is no issue here, and this park has more than one entry point. All in all though, the trails are flat and either paved or easy on the feet, and there's more than one bridge and some benches along the trail. I appreciate this green space being maintained and available to the community.

Probably saw a handful other dogs but everyone had their dogs leashed and paths were wide enough to avoid any confrontations. Everyone was very friendly and respectful and the trail was adjacent to a slow flowing creek. It was a very pleasant walk/jog that does go by several suburby neighborhoods but all in all, very enjoyable path.

This is a beautiful, family-friendly park that has a variety of things for enjoyment. Walleye Pond,…read moreright off the parking lot and near the entrance to trails, seemed to be an attraction all on its own, with the lily pads, viewing decks, and paved trails all around it. Trails are unpaved, which I prefer, and while not wheelchair accessible, the slopes are gentle enough for many adults and children to navigate. The creek that ran along most of the trails was enchanting, and the historical structures such as the smokehouse were fascinating to see and read about. I know there are more this park offers that we didn't get to explore this time, so we'd be glad to visit again in the future. I appreciate this green space being maintained and available to the community.

The best part is that it is dog friendly. The trails are unpaved, and you go through little bridges and pathways... not much incline making it ideal for dogs and small children. I really enjoyed the lily pond and made sure to snap plently of pictures with my pup. The historical house was also blooming with flowers this time of year-- it was so enchanting and beautiful. This place is such a gem!

Some of the buildings are undergoing renovations and can only be viewed from the outside. This includes the main house.The guide stood in the middle of the grassy area and talked about the main house. He also showed pictures of the inside. Yes, this area was part of the Underground Railroad , but not as a beacon of freedom. It is also on the national registry of historic places. Owned by north Virginia's first congressman and his family this was a working plantation. At one point it was also used by confederate soldiers. Give yourself at least 45 minutes for the grounds.

Our tour guide was great at explaining the history of the house and all the people who lived here. She explained the uses of each room and what was authentic. There was a small, old-fashioned classroom (since they educated local children) and an upper floor with a bunch of spinning equipment they show off more on field trips. Our tour group had about 6 people, so it was quiet and easy to ask questions if we had them. It was a nice little site and window into life in the 19th century.

It was 25 minutes long and it took you to the back fields and through the woods. It wasn't mind blowing but it was a pleasant ride to immerse in and kind of feel like you are on a farm. We bought tickets at the store where they also have cool old-timey simple toys for sale, along with items like apple butter. We loved seeing the animals including cows, calves, horses, pigs, peacocks, ducks, and very vocal sheep! Parking and general admission are free! If you are in the area, this is a wonderful stop to make. You can even milk cows at certain times of day.

During the second battle of Manassas the embankments were heavily defended by Stonewall Jackson's troops against the attacks of the vigorous federal troops in Late August of 1862. The trail was well maintained with descriptive and separate signs showing the points of view of the Union and Confederate combatant of the conflict at Deep Cut and vicinity. The trailhead at Featherbed lane is easy to find and there is ample parking. Best to go during the early morning when it's not so hot.

The bathhouse was clean and had hot water. Most campsites only have lukewarm or cold water. There were also an abundance of toilet facilities and they were well maintained/cleaned. The view of the Potomac was breathtaking and the only downfall was that the camping sites are relatively close to each other both on the mountain and at the river's edge. I do recommend this center, however, and we will likely return when back in the area!
