I went here to attend a high school graduation party for a family member and this amazing park blew me away. It was beautiful and well kept. The views of the Potomac were beautiful. There were lots of families there grilling, hanging out and having a good time. It was a very peaceful park with lots of shaded walking space. I like getting a good walk in when I have a chance. Had a splash park which some attendees enjoyed (at and extra fee) and a clean lavatory building. I'd like to return one day to fully explore the park.

We love this place! It's great for a walk or a picnic. The playground is very fun - with several slides that were good for my 2 year old and several that were for the bigger kids. They also had swings, climbing structures, and a sandbox. Lots of parking and seasonal bathrooms during the warmer months.

Awesome shaded walk by the river. Kids love playing at the playground, includes swings and sandbox. Plenty of parking and room for everyone.

Beautiful park with a lot of gorgeous natural space. The lake is serene and the cabins are nice, and the soccer fields are well-maintained.

I always have a feeling of "hidden gem". It's so spacious that I sometimes feel I have the park to myself. Golf? ✅Boating? ✅ Trails? ✅Pool? ✅ Pavilions?✅ What's not to like?

Nice place to sit by the Potomac. On weekends, bring your own chair. There are on lead dogs around, plenty of space for kids to run around, folks having picnics and a boat ramp for the boaters.

This is a beautiful less crowded place to spend beautiful time in solitude or can come here with friends to enjoy picnic time. It has water park little inside and can be stayed on the river side as beautiful huts are available with all kind of facilities.

Very good park for picnic. Not much of long walk trails. The Views of Potomac from here are amazing and so beautiful. Unlinke the rapids of Greatfalls, the river runs lazily here that it feels almost sleepy and beautiful. The picnic area is large with a lot of picnic tables placed at good distance from each other to provide the picnic goers their own space. The space was enogh for us to play vollyball, badminton, cricket, although there were large groups not too far from us, but still it didnt feel crowded even a bit. There are plenty of large trees providing ample shade to picnic areas. The trail we took was not too wide and had bushes around but there were many scenic spots. The deers were walking around leasurely and not scared or bothered by hundreds of humans present there. Overall a beautiful place for a fun picnic. I would have given 5 stars if the trails were a bit more elaborate.

Such a wonderful park to visit. Lush greenery, beautiful Potomac River, kids area, clean surroundings and so peaceful. It's definitely a good getaway place for entire family. Easy and free parking available around the area.

The park has great trails, golf, water park, and boat launch onto the Potomac. Launching in the evening, you can catch great sunsets or shots of the moon.

Huge park with lots of different activities for all age groups. We went here in an open park birthday party. Kids & babies enjoyed the park slides, swings etc, bunch of stuff for them. Lots of tree & shades with benches spaciously put in to give your own space. Shelter areas can be reserved in advance for private parties. Bring you boats & kayaks to have fun in river. The river water & banks are clean.

20230729 Haven't been here in over 5 years. The plants on the trail by the river have grown quite large. The trail is a lot more narrow than before. Unfortunately, it started thundering, and we got out before the rain arrived. This is a great park with a lot of activities for all ages from golf, water park, hiking, biking, boating, soccer, ... to dog walking. I love that it is along the river, and the view is beautiful regardless of the season. The only complain I have is that the trail can be muddy after rain or snow. I wish it is covered with mulch or something so that my feet aren't sinking in mudd. My In the Summer, in warmer seasons, there are lots of strings of cobwebs on the trail. Some part of the parking area is covered with small grovels. Overall, it is a great park.

Nice quiet park with trails, open fields, & benches. Awesome place to soak up nature. We didn't go inside any of the facilities. Parking was ok also. The the website shows the park closes at 830pm but the gate says 630pm

Google should remove this area from bike trails listing. Looks like no bikes allowed outside of paved areas but bring your dogs to defecate everywhere including the sports fields, makes using any grass an adventure. Small pond and area for walking. Usually too busy to enjoy. Lots of trash from those renting pavilions. Has a 1 foot skate ramp and foot long grind rail to injure yourself on. Sterling has the worst parks I've ever had the displeasure of trying to find a use for. The trails were the only thing I found good about this park but not being allowed to use a bike on them is a complete waste.

Beautiful park! Well maintained trails. Well-informed and friendly trail guide, Gabriela. I have really enjoyed walking with Gabriela and I’m going to miss our weekly walks during the winter months.

Claude Moore Park is a fairly quite place, the trails are very pretty and usually not occupied. The Recreation center, which Google is actually referencing, is a decent rec center, all the amenities you'd expect are there.

Lovely place with lots of paths to go on. There's a lot of Canadian Geese that seem to be here year round but it's only their poo that is a bother. They are pretty docile. You can also spot Cardinals and Blue Jays by the fishing spot. You can often see people fly fishing there. It is a good place on weekend mornings to relax from the Northern Virginia grind and stress. Highly recommended for families, even ones with small children. In the winter the park staff puts lots of Christmas decorations and lights. It has a pleasant decor. I can not recommend this place enough. It is dog friendly but there are not many waste stations, if any at all. I think that is the only con.

Claude Moore Park, a quaint park to view the Lanesville Heritage Area located in Sterling, VA. Mostly, visited by pet owners for its nice walking paths and beautiful trees and grassy areas as well. Upon my visit I didn't expect to find homes from George Washington's era and road maps explaining the history surrounding the road, which originally covered a much larger area, but a small part of it preserved for the sake of history. Furthermore, you'll find some interesting farming equipment from prior eras that are worth observing and learning about because there is history here in this park. The visitors center can provide information and access to this parks lake and paths. So, i works definitely stop there first to get information to make this park visit worthwhile.

One of the few parks in eastern Loudoun, and thank goodness the county purchased it from the WWF in the 1990s, because they were going to turn it into housing. The park features many historical buildings such as the Lanesville House, the restored Old School House, and Frogshackle cabin, all of which are open certain days of the year for open house. There are many miles of trails winding through the park, leading to Sterling Boulevard, Cascades Parkway, Juniper Avenue, and Park View High School. There is a nature section (which is the majority) with ponds, forest, meadows, and the nice views from Little Stony Mountain, a section for sports (baseball/softball, fields for soccer and lacrosse), the Heritage Farm Museum (which is not related to the park at all), and the CMP recreation centre, which charges for passes to use their swimming, basketball, track, weight room facilities, etc. I would highly recommend a visit to this park during any time of the year, though there are events throughout the year such as Holiday in the Park, Olde Time Fourth of July, Fall Festival, and fishing tournament in the summer to name a few. The visitors and interpretive centre has some animals and activities for kids, as well as colonial and Native American artefacts, trail maps, and restrooms with water fountains. The park runs many camps throughout the summer utilising the other buildings and facilities, and the children seem to always be having a good time, which may be disturbing the peace on a calm day, but isn’t too bad. One of the best parks in Loudoun by far.

Good hiking trail here for families that intersect often so you can shorten or lengthen as you desire. Best to start/ park at the visitors center. Baseball fields on the other side are incredible!

Fun day walking our dog Penny in the park, getting geocaches and soaking up the spring sun!!

Such a beautiful park! Lots of play area and open fields! And a trail that goes all around the lakes. Not really good for biking, but hiking it is great!

Had a great time at the 4th of July festival with my 2 young kids

This is a great place to enjoy with the kids. Last week, it was my first time here with my daughter and friends. They had a great time! It’s like a small version of the Water Mine Waterpark but loved it because your kids playing in the pools are visible from wherever you’re sitting. The park is very clean, has friendly and helpful staff, lifeguards on duty are always paying attention and ready to help. Bathrooms as well as the changing area were clean. We didn’t visit the food section but heard food is great. Only bottle water is allowed into the park, we had to put snacks and fruits back in the car. Parking was accesible near and a short walk from the Waterpark. Enjoy!

Very safe water park with smartest safeguard team. Don’t bring any food here. There is locker room so prepare some quarters. Water bottle is ok. Cozy small scale water park. No shaded picnic area available unless it is reserved

The water is very cold at first, but it is a great family time for a great price. Would visit again.

We thoroughly enjoyed this park today! I have kids ages 15, 11, 11, and 3, and this park is perfectly laid out so that the older kids could have some (safe) independence, and I could be with my youngest and still keep a good eye on everyone. Although, the lifeguard staff is incredibly alert, and very thorough. The facilities were clean with great bathroom/changing access, and the dining area was perfect. Really cannot beat this place-it’s safe, well laid-out, and affordable. We will be back!

Good place with nice picnic amenities nearby. Has a small parking space but nearby general park spaces help in case you can't park close by.

I haven't been here in years, but it's the same atmosphere. The lifeguards are very attentive. Many were getting upset because they kept blowing the whistle. No one should be running near a pool - walk do not run , no diving or horse playing in pool. They are just doing what they were trained to do, which is to prevent a drowning on their watch. It's $13 for facility access pass( for waterpark & golf course, but you must ask), or $13 if you just want to go to the water park area. It's something to do for everyone here, young or old. They also have a food shack with seating, and they also have seating outside of the park if you want to eat your food from home or other eateries before entering the park.

This was a nice little water park nearby. It has lots of different things to do, such as a splash pad, a splash zone in the water with a fun water slide for younger kids, two big water slides for 48” and up, a small pirate ship water slide in the larger pool, and a large open swimming area. My 6 and 2 year olds had a blast! The lifeguards were very diligent about their duties, as they walked up and down the pool sides, constantly surveying the area. I was disappointed that the small slide for little kids was broken both times we went here. You can’t bring in outside food, which was also disappointing since the only food available for purchase had no healthy options. You can bring food and eat it outside the park on the picnic tables if they are available. There were lots of school and daycare groups that made it quite crowded. Once the groups left, it was much more manageable. The locker rooms were not very well kept. It was messy, smelly, and the floors were super slippery. Management should really put in a non-slip floor to keep everyone safe, especially little kids.

So happy we made the drive out to this waterpark. The playground was the most fun for us. We didn't realize the giant bucket would come down so fast but it was quite a shock. It seems to spill about every 5 minutes. There were also a lot of different interactive knobs that controlled the water to play with. There were about 3 lifeguards at all times in the playground and they were always rotating and walking in the circle. In the main pool the bigger slides all connect to it. The only downside to the main pool was that the ladders are a little trickier to get up depending upon your upper body strength or the age of the person. There is however a long ramp that descends it to the more shallow end that makes access easier if you stay in the shallow end. The life jackets were easy to spot and there were a variety of sizes. The splash pad is smaller, but it is nice that this is an extra option. The concession area where they give you the food is located inside, but it is nice that the food is kept in one specific location so you don't have to worry about bugs if you are lounging. The lounging chairs are abundant, however when choosing them if you are going to stay all day take note that what is shaded in the morning is not towards the end of the day.

Volcano Island was a hit, just like the rest of Nova Parks' water parks! It was a lot like Pirate's Cove, but this one stood out for its splash pad, a great option for the little ones, especially toddlers and crawlers since it's basically just sprinklers and fountains and no water depth. The lifeguards were attentive and amazing as per the high standard of Nova Parks. We were there only about 2 hours but during that time we did not experience any 30 minute safety breaks like we did at Pirate's Cove, so that's a huge plus. I am definitely going to look into a season pass (good for all 5 Nova water parks) next summer. At about $40/family of 4 for one visit, I'm sure the pass will end up saving lots of money.

The mini golf does not have a separate location so this is what the review is about.This course was nice for several reasons. Primarily that it was connected to nature and family friendly as evidenced by the deer. Secondly it was not crowded and there was no wait. The Algonkian park staff was helpful on the phone (both times). The largest positive was that it was free because the gate was open however that required having a putter and balls, which luckily the pro golfer in our group possessed. However, there were several areas where the course needed some work. Overgrown leafy bushes made it difficult to walk. Rain drenched some of the holes and also the putting greens which made it challenging. Also the hole with the secret tube was not seamless, our ball got stuck and I had to reach my hand in to receive it which was not ideal. The waters were swampy and most of the holes were plain. I would recommend adding a dinosaur or something even like a volcano to make the water park. Not complaining for a free round of golf, which is why I am giving 3.5 stars.

It's a great place for kids, my son had a lot of fun, of course, we got a little blush in the sun 😉

Wonderful place for indoor trampoline, bounce activity for the young ones! We had a birthday party here- last week- the kids had a blast! Pizza was Great - they ordered from Papa Johns! We ordered 2 (that came with the package & 2 extra Pepperoni 🍕! More than enough, even had enough for some of the parents who wanted to join, & plenty for later!) Personal Host was wonderful & did a great job! We did the, PARTY ROOM PACKAGE- THEMED ROOM PARTY PACKAGE: PRICE: $250 – 10 Participants – 70 mins of Jump Time (Parents of the children attending the party are not included in the guest count.) – Includes Ninja Warrior Access – Private Party Room – 10 Pairs of Jump Socks – 2 Cheese 🍕 – 1 D Parents of the children attending the party are not included in the guest count. rink Stand (choice of fruit punch, yellow lemonade, or pink lemonade). – Dedicated Party Host/Hostess – All Paper Products Included. *In order to save time when you arrive, you may fill out and sign your liability waiver in advance. Please note that you must be at least 18 years old in order to sign a liability waiver. All waivers can be done online, on their website. Giving them 3 stars ✨ because; ***Only concern for the place would be the safety, security measures in place for when children EXIT. Not a very good security measure in place. ANY one can take an unattended child & just walk out - w/ out any question! NO security check in place! So make sure you have all eyes on everyone (children) that are invited & left for you (as a party host) to tend to. Very scary when you have more than 50+ little kids, & parents in running around in different areas of the place.

Great place to bring the kids for a awesome afternoon. So much to do and the place is really big. The bouncing is fun for the kids and even adults. There is a little but nice arcade and there are other things to do on top of that. The food and drink bar are perfect for snacks for hungry bouncers. Definitely will be going again.

I visit this location every Thursday for their "Toddler Time." They offer jumping for just $10 for one adult and one child under the age of 5. I'm a nanny to a two year old little girl, and we've been coming since she was about 15 months old. Not only are their facilities clean and organized, they make safety their number one priority. All of their staff display the highest level of customer service I've ever seen (especially when it comes to working with dozens of kids literally bouncing off walls, high on sugar). This location offers a huge free jump area, small bounce house, dodge ball arena, ninja warrior course, slam dunk corner, giant inflatable slide, and a cliff jump. On top of all their jumping sections they have a large game area filled with claw machines and up-to-date machines that put Chucky Cheese to shame. All of these games are played using a Rebounderz card that acts like a debit card that you can download "tokens" on and swipe to activate the games. The points are accrued on your card so there is no need for juggling 200 paper tickets while chasing your kids around as they spill all their tokens. Their card system is 100x easier to use and better for the environment! The caliber of customer service seen at this location is hard to find in facilities like this. Eric, the manager of this location makes time to talk with customers, and really go the extra mile. He has trained an impeccable team of employees. We've been to Sky Zone and Launch (other trampoline parks closer to our home) and still continue to make the 20 minute drive to Rebounderz for the amazing experience and phenomenal customer service we receive.

Awesome place for kids and old people on my daughter 3 rd birthday everybody had fun even our friends parents they were jumping

It was awsome, my 9 yr old daughter loved it, a bit pricey but way fun

Brought my 5 year old son on here on a Thursday, they had open jump from 10 am to 2 pm for $10. He loved it! Great way to get your kid tired and all that energy out. The staff is super friendly and nice. Your kids will love this place.

Came Saturday paid $140 for all day passes. Arrived at 1pm. Stepped out for 30 minutes for lunch. Came back not knowing we weren't allowed to leave...which weren't told when buying the passes to begin with. They almost didn't let us back in. Not enough staff monitoring the ninja warrior. Kids everywhere just using it for swings. I totally get kids like to swing on the ropes. The children who actually want do the obstacle can't. Kids did have fun.

Fun little museum. Kids loved spending time here. I found the admission fee a bit expensive though, $5 per adult, $3 per kids over 2.

It is a very nice museum to visit. It has older life style of US has some old tractor harvest tools and some early stage tools developed for harvesting that are made of stones like chisel. it had some old home specimen of those. It’s a nice place to visit at least once.

The staff there was wonderful! The museum is beautiful and set in a gorgeous scenery. A very cute and educational museum great for kids and adults.Very affordable and filled with information. Pretty place with lots of activities going on! Well worth the visit!

Can’t really call it a hidden gem but considering so very few people visit here on weekdays it’s one of the best parks to visit for some peace and quiet.

I had a great experience at Heritage Farm Museum. Friendly staff and well organized. It gives you a good history of the area and you’ll get to know the story behind the names of the streets you use, especially if you live or pass through that area frequently. I recommend you reserve a good amount of time, so you could enjoy your visit and see the places behind the museum.

Went here for one of their classes and paid the fee for me and my littler one (who was too small for the class) to hang around and check the place out. There were lots of things to see and a few interactive exhibits she really enjoyed. The store was her favorite part (she's 3 and loved "shopping" and "checking out"). I think any history buff would enjoy this place.

Fun spot! No food or water/drinks. They're strict. Understandable. The pretend kitchen and classroom was a hit with my kids.

Great little museum with plenty of hands on play for younger kids. They have antique farm equipment and play areas that are modeled on a general store, barn, school, and Grandma’s kitchen. I would highly recommend this place for families with younger children especially if the weather is poor and you need a place to let kids play and burn off some energy.

A delightful museum if you have young children! My 7 and 9 yr olds loved pretending to run a store, teach a school, take care of a kitchen, and do farm chores. There are some exhibits for the adults too! Hidden Gem!

A very cute and educational museum great for kids and adults. A small museum but nice nonetheless. Very affordable and filled with information. The woman at the front desk was more than pleasant. My 2 year old loved all the hands on exhibits.

Visiting this museum during COVID 19 and giving it a 5* should tell you something. The staff there was wonderful! The museum is beautiful and set in a gorgeous scenery. I would love to go back when all their hands on displays are open.

A very good informative small museum for both adults and kids. It also had little farm activities for the kids. The exhibits had informational boards explaining the history. They also had sanitizers placed throughout the museum and the restroom was clean. There is also a outdoor trail to walk around.
