Play Space Features: Fee Based Ride(s)

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

Cabin John Regional Park Playground (Rockville, MD)
7410 Tuckerman Lane Rockville, MD (301) 299-0024
A wonderful shady park with a ton of different play structures for all ages. The miniature train is fun, but also just far enough from the playground that you can easily avoid it if you don't want to spend the money. 5/5 stars. Posted: 9/05/10

Tyson’s Corner Play Area (Tysons Corner, VA)
1961 Chain Bridge Rd McLean, VA 22102 (3rd level, near the AMC Theater and Food Court)
A great indoor space to burn off steam on a too hot/cold/rainy day. Love that it's free, but dislike that it can get crowded. I'm also not wild about the train parked out in front that costs $3/per person ride (or 2 for $5). 3/5 stars. Posted: 6/30/10
