Not much to it, a few entrances from dead end road, and along it's namesake Spring Lane, maybe more, with traffic, not a lot of reason to go that way, for me... Might try again later, as construction seems to be finished, will see... Ymmv. N.B. hours are sunRise to sunSet so adjusting a little manually, since gDrug doesn't do relative hours...

Safety concerns of stalking, gang, etc
Seems monitored but fickle so wondering what's up with that. Park hours are Sun 🌞 Rise +/- commuters to Sun 🌞 Set +/- for commuters. Bathrooms locked at dark. Not sure on vending machines. Guests sometimes snooty and attempts at exclusivity and controlling, sometimes very nice, sometimes gang thugs. That's Arlington, i guess...

Odd little library, and not a free one, at that. Out back looks like one, but for gardeners only ... Odd cultures to me: entitled, judgemental, and kid focused, as play group and one room schoolhouse for preK, nursery, etc. Then some seniors and others (homeless? Gang wannabes, overPrivileged brats, etc) hanging around, when not out front smoking when I'm trying to breath at the entrance bench, repacking or waiting for it to open. Other times some are friendly and sociable. Open times vary according to day of the week, sometimes 10a sometimes 1p, and closing 9p or 5p, do check the app, and/or gMaps for when is which (perhaps witch is more apt like trick and/or treat?), like closed all day Sundays... Staff varies, mood and annoyances in public facing babysitting patrons, the computers and likely each other... YMMV

Risky getting dark parts detour, gang like hanging around, threatened? Tagging in tunnels, and obscene further up and dark, isolated, sewage/biological threats etc. Detour slippery, not well marked, as high water regular and then closed trail alternative route?

Hosts a year round Saturday morning Farmer's Market outside city hall, undergoing renovation, so parking limited and crowded, but foods. Hosts Blues Festival with Cherry park, so swamped then, other times limited parking space, but use bathrooms, water, staff nice enough to me over decades. Some crafts and classes, not tried much, looked at meeting room rental, but went elsewhere, as likely residents or work there requirements similar to elsewhere. Dogs and kids, local community, smaller than many Fairfax county, as Little City, but relatively safe, as police at city hall nearby, doing renovations to meet latest security and upgrades for city court, etc. More to learn, always...
