The only downside is the limited parking, but if weather is good the parking by the playground makes it a fun all morning adventure!

There is a covered shelter nearby which makes it the perfect spot for a birthday party. 3) The nature center is a great place to explore on cold or rainy days. You can see turtles, a bearded dragon, play with toys in a little nature nook that looks like it came straight out of the Berenstein Bears, or climb up and down their little play structure. The people who work here are extremely friendly and the price for all of this is Free 99. 4) They host field trips and birthday parties that are fun and informative for kids and adults alike. My three year old STILL talks about the frog who peed on the floor last year at her class presentation. We are so lucky to have a gem like this in our area.

Audrey Moore Rec Center is a Fairfax County facility and it is an older facility but they have…read moreeverything you could ever think of. Outside, there is baseball & softball fields, basketball courts, soccer fields (turf) a skate park, & several walking or biking trails. Inside, they have a full-size swimming pool & diving well with both spring boards and platforms, there are racquetball courts, a gym, and studios for all kinds of classes like yoga, as well as a physical therapy office through INOVA. I have been here many times for my son's soccer & swim team practice as well as just coming to play and have fun. Personally, I have been here for yoga classes as well as PT including aquatic PT. You can purchase a class pass or pay a one day fee or you sign up for a wide variety of classes offered year round. On Wednesdays they have a local farmers market out in the parking lot. They also have county recycling bins, which I have used recently for glass. Note: as expected there's a heavy chlorine smell in the pool area so if you're sensitive before warned.

This place is extremely outdated and dirty. It's just disgusting. You walk in to find the carpeting of the steps extremely worn down and peeling off at the sides, as it is everywhere else in the building. You walk in to see a big window overseeing the room of inflatables. This facility hosts parties and sports events. We were there for a birthday party and the party rooms are downstairs. To get to the party rooms, you walk down the stairs to a filthy hallway with disgusting turf carpeting and muggy air. I'm sure this facility has a long list of health violations. List of cons: - The restrooms are located inside of grungy looking locker rooms, so you pose the risk of having your child seeing people changing - There is no supervision in the inflatables room. Parents are responsible for their own kids - There is no system to ensure that kids leave with their parents. Anyone can walk out with your kids - My kid wandered into the sporting facility area of the lower level and fell into a rain puddle that resulted from a leaky ceiling - There are random puddles in the inflatables room from leaky ceilings (read: MOLD!) - The air in the lower level can be quite muggy during warmer months of the year (read: MOLD!) - There were buckets catching the leaking water from the ceiling at various places of the facility (I saw them on two separate visits) - Outdoor parking can be limited, depending on what other events are being held there on the same day List of pros: - No time limitation (but why would you want to stay here?) - I assume that it's cheaper here - Outside food is permitted for parties hosted here Although I hate this place, kids don't seem bothered by the filthiness of this place and seem to have a lot of fun.

I came here for a friend's birthday party several weekends ago and found this place to be at the…read moreBOTTOM OF THE LIST of kids indoor play area category in Virginia. The place is very much run down, filthy and gym locker rooms are used as bathroom for children!!! They have showers in the bathroom. hahahaha. I don't know about you but I don't want my kids going in there to use the bathroom and accidentally seeing nude people in the lockers. Looks like this place used to be some sort of gym that they attempted to convert over to a kids play area. Doesn't look right and feel right as the room was intended and design for other purpose other than a kids play area. It doesn't look like they had safety for the children in mind and everything looks old and dirty. Like they decided to blatantly throw together some cheap inflatables and try to copy other more successful children's play area like Bubble Bounce, Fight, Rebounderz, Monkey Joe's, etc. As mentioned, they did not have children in mind for their "party place". In addition to throwing together some inflatables in an old gym/sports complex NOT intended for young children, they have this constant crowd of people that comes into the building to play soccer and other sports as the building runs other activities. I see kids during their birthday events getting mixed and lost with the sporting event crowd. With no signs of security or atleast someone checking in the people, I can potentially see some safety related issues. And the Parking. Don't get me started on Parking. We had to park across the street about a quarter a mile away at some other parking lot, carrying two toddlers back to the party place. This place seems to do too many things at once and their parking lot is full due to sporting events held there, while the parents of parties end up parking somewhere else risking oncoming traffic and towing of cars. I would rather spend my hard earned money and drive a little further away to businesses that have their environment set up for young children in mind and for their safety. IT'S WORTH IT! Somewhere where it's meant for children such as Kid Junction, Pump It Up, SkyZone etc. I can't put a price on peace of mind as the safety of my children is at the top of my priority. I will NOT be coming back.

The bathrooms were nasty, there was puke all over one of them and the other two were beyond dirty. I told a couple of the staff members about this and they couldn't have cared less. I mean puke all over a bathroom is a health hazard. This place is probably better suited for 7-8 year olds. It's a weird configuration of a big space with not much to do. Older kids definitely get rough and trample smaller kids. I was definitely not impressed, specially by how unkept this place was. Parking was crazy too.

Great location, and a solid park overall…read more I was hanging around in Falls Church today. This park caught my eye, and I said why not, let's check it out. Word of warning. Narrow turn into the road that leads to the lot for the park. When using Google Maps it seems to direct you a bit further in the main road. Ignore that; make a left when your gut tells you it feels right to. I came around 5 in the evening and the sun was to set soon. So I parked real fast in the semi-vacant lot, skimmed over the play area at front and made a beeline to the nature trail entrance toward the left side. Suffice it to say, never a dull day. Not disappointed to say the least. Walk was long and varied. My first time at this park so I just let my shoes do the walking. Went up the grassy knoll straight ahead, but further in to the side trail on left it gets too muddy. I didn't bring my hiking boots, so I said phooey to that, and surrendered that notion without further ado. Long winding roads down a passing nature trail. I remember crossing a small bridge, and that led into a view of stepping platforms overlooking a river or trial. I hopped on those circular blocks and made it over to the other side with ease. Grand tour of the place and then led into a quaint residential neighborhood. Whilst it was nice, the day was winding down so I had to wave adieu. Back again and a brisk re-hop of the circular land pieces, made sure not to trip or fall into water. Crossed the bridge back. Saw some folks on the way and they were just chilling and passing by. I walked into new and divergent paths that branched out and broke off to new frontiers. I would've loved to follow that trail of cheese down a ways, but alas had to head back. I got lost briefly and that owes to my being green and newcomer and going down too many paths; it's like getting spun around and then asked to point the way. I had Google directions on, so I found my way to the lot eventually after all. Not sure if I caught the sunset, but if not maybe next time. I was just rushed as I had to be somewhere before 6. So I couldn't even stay the hour. But overall, great park and trails. Nothing earth shattering mind you, but a solid and worthwhile nature retreat if ever there was one. I'll definitely swing by at least once again, it seems a good spot as any to bring a dog or pet on the walk!

The trail is pretty good for a neighborhood park and goes a decent way as it connects with some others but crossing the stream on the stepping stones can be a little tricky for some people, especially if they're wet.
