I don't think many people outside of this neighborhood know about this park. It's sooooo quiet! It…read moreconsists a decently sized parking lot, a rec center, one playground, one pavilion, one basketball court, one tennis court, and one small loop around a field. There's really not much to it, but it's such a nice getaway if you want peace and quiet. I haven't seen more than 3 people at the park and any given time, and sometimes I am the only one! During a time where many people want to be outside of their houses but still avoid people, this park is definitely an answer to that. Just watch the Canadian geese poop on the loop, they're messy and reckless!!

This is a beautiful sprawling complex of a park. It is so well laid out that it can make for a nice…read moreday to just get out of the house to enjoy yourself. I came here because I was to attend an event...which I missed. Because I was unaware of how many different entrances to separate area there were. I had driven around for a minute at the one entrance, parked and got out to walk around a bit. This area had the ballfields and a few trails. The next entrance up took me back to an area where pavilions are located and I could see that this was well used as each pavilion was in use. This reminded me of all my family reunions I had attended. What I did not know was that there was one more entrance further up the road that I did not go down. More pavilions in this area and I am told that it is a bit more secluded. What I did like was that you could drive into the area and park in one of the many lots further in and get out and explore. The tennis area was a surprise to me.

This is a green space that seems like a part of Montgomery COllege but isn't. I found its lack of…read morefacilities for the public and general abandoned vibe odd (I don't think I've ever seen more than one or two people there despite having passed the area regularly over the years), but it isn't a bad space if you find yourself there. Having said that, I stopped for the briefest of picnics and was mobbed by biting insects so that was not great. Wrapping up quickly, I found a pedestrian bridge over the Metro that leads one in the direction of Takoma Park, and my day improved there. I note that there is a lot of signage about the history of the Blairs; it's one of those things that a lot of people never really think about but the name Blair is prominent in the area and I never had any idea why.

Mhew! This park has a decent camp ground for a nights sleep before hitting the road. Camps are very…read morenear to each other and it's very open where the six campsites near you can literally see you pick your nose so don't go doing that and eating it. Bathrooms are mediocre because I've definitely seen worse. They do have a caretaker onsite 24/7 who drives around every hour but he can probably just see everyone from his camp setup. I'd only stay here again for a quick nights rest and go. I wouldn't recommend this for a family camping trip and I certainly wouldn't stay a few days. A shady character cooked something in the fire pit near me (unoccupied site) then left. This entire neighborhood seems to have shady humans so if you're scared of the strange occupants that dwell in city life, just steer clear of Greenbelt, MD altogether. It doesn't bother me but I'm also just passing by, not having a family outing here.

A great place to take your dog for a walk or even a run depending on when you go and what area of the park you are in. Not sure what the official policies are for pets here though. No doggie bag stations so it is a good idea to bring your own. During the week at times the park can be virtually uninhabited. Has a large container for recycling along the main entrance road on the left. Signs state to take all your trash with you so do not expect a lot of trash cans. This is one of Morris favorite places in the world and he even knows it by name when I say " Davidsonville Park". I was going to rate it with four stars but Morris insisted I give it five. Lot of bluebirds were calling and flying around there today. Nice place

There are two playgrounds: one for small children and one for older kids. There are also two fenced-in tennis courts next to the playground and what looks like a football/soccer field behind the playgrounds. The parking situation seems plentiful. We were the only ones there for a good 20 minutes until one other family pulled up as we left (we were just blowing off some energy before nap time, plus it was fuh-reezing). But there were a lot more parking spaces. Great location across from a school and very close to the shopping center. Get lunch at Bowie Town Center and then bring it here for picnicking and play time! It's a pleasant park to visit. However, I bet this park is more fun in spring and early fall, because the older kids' playground is pretty good for climbing if your fingers aren't numb :) Overall, a fine but older looking park.
