This place is huge. Lots of places to hide. Good for kids of all ages. Lots of swings and fun obstacles. Good number of various sized slides.

This playground is amazing, with a few caveats. It has limited shade and it is very difficult to watch more than one child because there are lots of blind spots and multiple exits/entrances. It is also not wheelchair accessible.

To say you could save several grand by ditching your plans to take your children to Disney Land/World and take them to Annie's Playground instead would open me up to being accused of hyperbole. Again. But...it's kind of true. Because, though in the all the grand US land there are surely more spectacular playgrounds, this place is absolute guaranteed F-U-N! Two connecting structures - one designed for little ones 2 - 5 yrs old, with a taller one for those older (and those young at heart) - rise and fall in series of steps, roofs, rickety bridges, bars, swings and slides. More than once I felt I'd stepped into M.C. Escher's "House of Stairs". In fact, it's probable that my husband and I had more fun running on, ducking through and crawling beneath it's underbelly (like stalking animals) than our offspring did. I only say that because I blew out both my 30-something knees and my spouse nearly had a 30-something heart attack. It was THAT fun. Our saving grace? Soft-cushy-shredded-rubber-tire-tread-earth. No scraped knees and no dirty clothes. Hooray! And the whole shebang is situated picturesquely above Maryland farm country - rolling hills, open sky . It must be just breathtaking in the spring, because it was pretty wonderful in late fall. You'd seriously have to be mentally handicapped or a minion of SATAN to not enjoy this place. The good vibes alone are catching. Even the somber reminder that this playground is dedicated to a child named Annie, who died after being hit by a drunk driver - and the memorial garden in its midst, with dedicated bricks in its ground for other lost loved ones - even that only adds to the joy of the place. Despite the tragedy of its existence, the encompassing aura of the park itself celebrates childhood and the simple yet glorious pleasures thereof. "Fun park," chanted my two year old as we left Annie's Playground. "Fun park!"

Now that I am a mom, I feel like I can give this playground a review. I have been bringing my one year old daughter here every weekend the past couple months when the weather has been nice. The entire playground area is covered in recycled tire pieces instead of dirt and mulch. This makes it much cleaner for when my daughter falls, so that's a plus. She loves the Tot Lot because she can wander around and crawl through tunnels on her own. She loves when I push her in the swings (there are plenty of them!) and help her go down the slides. When she gets older she can run through the other parts of the playground that have bigger slides, monkey bars and a fireman's pole. There are also a few fields that are pretty occupied on the weekends for soccer, lacrosse and baseball games with plenty of parents and onlookers cheering the kids on. I like that Annie's has a trail that is part of the Ma & Pa trail. It's a nice distance (1.4 miles) to walk and there are also more little playground areas along the way. The restrooms onsite are nice and clean and there is also a large pavilion area for parties and cookouts. All in all, this is one of the nicest playgrounds in the area and we will return many times this summer as for the years to come.
