I often stop at this park when I am in the area. The waterfront view is lovely, the park is always clean and the atmosphere is very peaceful

I love coming here at night time just to relax and wind down. It's a great spot just to sit and watch the airplanes above pass by. Also theres a great view of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge and the MGM. Definetly recommend coming here at night time. Beware of otters though!

What a beautiful view and nice area. I made a delivery down here and just had to stop to check it out.

Nice little park with volleyball court, a playground, and a nearby 'haunted' underground tunnel. Family Friendly!

Located on a hill overlooking the Potomac River is a large public park with a semi-shaded, two-level playground, open grass, benches, and a sand volleyball court. There aren’t restrooms or a parking lot, but most walk to the park or park on the nearby streets.

Another great place for children to release energy and have fun! My granddaughter loves this park. I enjoy meeting the parents to share stories.

Fantastic park with 3 levels of play places and lots of seating for parents. Lots of open space for soccer, frisbee and football.

If you little ones, they will love this park!
