The trails are well maintained and are pretty long. There is an unpaved nature trail and a paved loop trail with nature views. There is also a huge green area between the pavilions where you can throw a frisbee around, fly a kite, toss a football and/or play a game of catch. It is well maintained, but is not totally level. This park seems very popular with people with 4-legged friends, joggers and hikers. The disc golf course has 18 holes, is in the woods and is in decent shape. Beware of critters such as ticks and mosquitoes if you plan on using the course. The park has adequate free parking available. The covered pavilions are nice and relatively new. They have lots of picnic tables under them and two grills per pavilion. They can accommodate for 120 to 168 people. The pavilions need to be reserved and are available for rent. I like this park, it is a peaceful, soothing no frills park with wonderful opportunities to immerse in nature. It is perfect to host events as it has lots of parking and can hold many people.

The only thing I found was a small port-o-potty right by the small parking lot. For a large get-together or to hike around, this is perfect. They also have grills so you can eat outside to your liking. It is not too far from Lake Akkotink if you want to check that out as well. I will give this; it is quieter than Lake Akkotink. So if you want some serene scenery, this works.

There are a lot of amenities (ball fields, playgrounds, tennis courts, a basketball court, covered pavilions, picnic tables, etc) & it's all typically well maintained. I noticed this morning one of the playground infant swings was missing & there is a considerable amount of confetti & trash on the ground under pavilion 1. If you haven't already, check out Cloverdale Park! Highly recommend.

There are two separate playgrounds before the trail-one for 2-5, the other 5-12. The younger kids is on mulch while the older kids has softer padding. There are baby swings, no big swings here. Right next to the playgrounds are the basketball courts. There is a cul de sac to park in or you can park on the street. The lake is open to fishing, no swimming. Lots of dogs on the trail. The trail is stroller-friendly too.

It's nothing all that exciting. There are much better parks in the county. This one is surrounded…read moreby neighborhoods. Trails are limited, as is parking. Your best bet is on neighborhood streets. Even then this can be cumbersome. As for fishing a disappointment. On the south side I've caught small bluegill and sunfish. People claim there are bass, but I'm skeptical of this. It's possible but due to the small size of this lake, a limited amount along with any decent keepers. This isn't to say it's worthless. Occasionally during the fall I can get some good outdoor pictures. Bird species are limited.

I recently visited this park and it was honestly a pretty disappointing experience. The grass was…read moreovergrown and looked like it hadn't been maintained in a while. Several trash cans were overflowing, and there was litter scattered around the walking paths. The playground equipment also seemed worn down and not very clean. On top of that, the bathrooms were in poor condition and didn't seem to be cleaned regularly. It made the whole park feel neglected. Parks are supposed to be relaxing places to spend time outside, but this one just felt poorly taken care of. I hope the city puts more effort into maintaining it because it could be a really nice spot if it were cleaner and better managed.

That's not a huge loss, but for those who love angling, it's disappointing. Such is life as River Mill Park has some nice river views. My guess is when it warms up, maybe they'll have some outdoor concerts or family events here. Park in the public lots. This isn't a long walk. There's the cheesy "Love" sign you can get a picture with your significant other if you have one. I do like that there was a menorah and Christmas tree. Today this plus the holidays wreaths on the bridge were done with class. The new rocking bench is solid. Do I wish it was wooden? Yep but it's probably for safety reasons. The walkways had some ice on them. Definitely watch your step. I think this is a good place to chill from the busy land of northern Virginia. If you're in the area it's worth stopping by here.
