Inside the property is a new playground, trails, a field, exercise equipment, and public mosaic art. Inside is a pool for people who need it for therapy, a large gym court, meeting rooms, restrooms, and more. The design is stunning and plays well with the natural landscape in this part of Ward 7.

I think mid 20's which was ok for a littke while. After about an hour into it my ears and fongers were starting to feel numb. The indoor recreation center had not opened yet and I think that would have been better fun for everyone. They do a great job in terms of the maintenace andnthere was also no trash around like what younwoukd see at some other parks in the city. Plus this park and rec center was ckose to where we were at. I wouldn't mind coming back here sometime to check out the actual recreation center.

What is open is the playground and it's spacious leaving room for families to safe distance. Still, masks are required. Near the tennis courts (yes, the courts are open too) are a few D.C. statehood murals part of the mayor's campaign to make D.C. the 51st state. There's a rainbow-colored mural, a rose mural (D.C.'s flower) and a few others by local artists.

This park is SOOOO COOL! Especially for kids of different ages. There's multiple swings (although…read morethe baby swing is broken right now - if that doesn't get fixed I'll update this review accordingly), multiple play areas, outdoor musical instruments, and SO MANY SPOTS FOR CLIMBING especially for bigger kids.

You have to sign in to use that facility but the staff was friendly and it's no big deal.

I've lived in this chunk of Arlington for a few years now. My initial interactions with this place…read moreare as a polling place every year, in which case parking is very limited and you find yourself snaking around the inside of the building to vote. However, throughout the years this has been a great place to jog through, or sit in the grass at the picnic tables scattered through the grassy area behind the tennis courts. Now that I have a daughter, we walk through this community center with her stroller just about every day that the weather allows it. She's still too young to join the other kids on the playground, but I look forward to when she can. The place is always kept nice and clean, the gardens looking pretty, and sidewalks/pavement kept up (since having to push around a stroller, I seriously notice which sidewalks/pavement are and aren't well maintained...) Anyway, I feel like this place truly gives meaning to the COMMUNITY aspect of this center.

What a great recreation center! Parts of it are outdated like the entrance and check-in area to the…read morepool, but overall, it's an excellent recreational center. Here's why. 1) Indoor Pool: The indoor pool is kept clean and is pretty big with half of the pool shallow for kids to play in with splash areas and a water slide. The other half is laned for adults to swim. There are always lifeguards there and the space provides life jackets for kids and adults if needed. There are changing rooms with lockers too. 2) Amenities: Inside is a gym with treadmills, weights, and more, and other rooms for classes, etc. With a permit, you can rent their multi-purpose room for birthday parties and it comes with a small kitchen connected to the room. Inside are murals of the neighborhood by local artists. Outside is a field, a rocket ship-themed playground, a statue of a dap, and a field. 3) Parking: Free street parking is easy to find just outside the rec center. 4) Staff: I always find the staff to be friendly and reasonable. They are great!

I've been twice to use the gym, and I must say it's pretty decent. I'm a little hesitant to post…read morethat here because I don't want it to get too crowded, but it has everything I need for good workout. 3 treadmills, an eliptical (maybe 2), free weights, kettle bells, a bench and one of those weight machines that has lat pull downs and like 3 other machines in one. Also full length mirrors and good lighting so the gym selfies are always popping. My friends go to the indoor pool and they love it and when I pooped my head inside the gym, it looks pretty nice too. The facilities are super clean and the staff (that I've encountered) is really nice. They've really done a nice job updating this center. It's also free with a dc license so enjoy your tax dollars at work!

It's hard to give this place a really good or really bad review…read more The good: Although at the edge of a section of the golf course, not that far from the runway, and near a busy road that's just off the base, it is surprisingly quiet. The camp host is around if needed. The neighbors have always been pretty quiet during our stays, no loud parties are a plus in my book. There's a couple of coin-op laundry machines, a microwave, a large sink, and group room in the main building near the entrance; as well as a bathhouse (shower and restroom building) that's fairly centrally located in the midst of the camp area. The dump stations are near the bathhouse and folks using it don't seem to dwaddle. Most of the sites are fairly level. The cost isn't insane for the national capital region. There's a metro stop (Branch Ave station), with parking and a drop off (kiss and ride) about a mile and a half away from the front gate which is useful if you're heading into the city. The bad: It's near the golf course and the course is off limits which creates a challenge for walking or hiking nearby. If you're in the electric only area, the spaces are pretty close together and on gravel vs concrete pads. The shower and restroom facilities could really use an update/overhaul as they are dated and the layout of the shower area, at least in the ladies side, is a bit odd in that you leave your stuff in a separate stall that's not connected to your shower stall. It's a little pricey ($30-45 per night) for what you might find compared to some other similar government run facilities in the surrounding area. Other: The office isn't on-site, it's about a mile away at the Outdoor Rec center which seems to only be open on weekdays, so far I haven't been successful in creating an online reservation which is definitely my preference. Recommend calling or visiting in person to make reservations, also you'll need to check in at Outdoor Rec to get your parking pass. We've stayed several times over the past year for a few nights at a time and will again if needed.

Very disappointing experience. The amenities are unacceptable. The bathrooms and showers are…read moreunsanitary and unusable, and there is no laundry facility on the RV grounds. The game room has no heat, making it unusable in cold weather. During the recent storm, the RV area was not cleared or maintained. The rest of the base roads were passable, but the RV grounds were not, leaving us effectively stuck and unable to move our RV. Despite not being able to access or use our RV site due to these conditions, we were still charged. To make matters worse, management has been unreachable and has not returned calls. For a facility on a military installation, this level of upkeep and customer service is unacceptable. I cannot recommend staying here until basic sanitation, maintenance, and communication issues are addressed.

Expensive overall. Service was very attentive, they have a lot of staff and are prepared for big crowds. The gaming part is described well in other reviews. I'll foot stomp that it's not adults only, on a Friday night the place was overrun with teens which was unexpected, though everyone was well behaved. The gaming is not linear and it's hard to interact with a large group, you'll lose anyone who is not in your small group of six or so to the mass of games. The wait times for the game rooms were manageable and their tech works really well. Some games were more fun and better than others. The head to head dodgeball, light smacking games were the most fun. I'm not sure I would do another big event there but many of our group left super happy. I'd come back with a smaller group of friends, 4-6 and go through with them.
