A lovely shady park with a big play structure and an old fashioned tire swing. Park is a bisected by a creek which can be a pro or con; overall better for older kids than babies. 5/5 stars! Posted: 7/13/10

It's a nice neighborhood park but no wow factor. Lack of bathrooms, shade, and baby features detract from the park's appeal. 2/5 stars. Posted: 5/16/11

This is a wonderful park, completely re-done in 2010, with modern equipment and lots of thoughtful touches.

Burke Lake Park (Burke, VA)
7315 Ox Road Fairfax Station, VA 703-323-6600
There is a ton to do at this wonderful 800+ acre park and we only scratched the surface in our visit. There is a playground in the park (actually several), but the playgrounds aren't really the selling point. In fact, the one closest to the train and carousel is not that great, but the other park features more than make up for it. 5/5 stars. Posted: 6/06/10
