This was such a great way to learn about history. We did the tour guide with the Park Ranger and it was great. She lead us through what happened. The tour was about 45 minutes long. It is a great place to bring children. Since it is outdoors our boys could explore. The museum was very well done. There is also an interactive map that gives a layout of the battle.

Loved it! I am NOT a Civil War buff but I did enjoy the visit. They have a great film that is shown hourly. We also downloaded the audio and video clips from the park’s app. That helped to explain what we were seeing as we toured the battlefield.

I had an enjoyable experience exploring the battlefield on a Monday in early March. I took the walking tour with the ranger, I don’t remember his name but he was very knowledgeable and a great story teller. There was plenty of parking. Restrooms in the visitors center. I watched the movie after the walking tour. I drove to the stone bridge and the unfinished railroad sites because I was running out of time. You could definitely spend an entire day here.

This was a visit that brought a lot of history to life. To have been at the Battlefield Park at the end of September 2023, with the heavy clouds, was really a rich experience. I also purchased a two books from the book store, one of which is slave narratives.

I've come here multiple times to hike- it never fails to amuse me. Full of rich history everywhere. There are 2 places to park: one that is placed in the middle and there is the main parking. I like that the huge chunk of the area is preserved. You'll always find something new. There are various trails to choose from.

Fascinating testament to the stupidity of war. Many young men died on this field because some adults wanted to own people. Having said that, the artifacts on display give one a better understanding of the battles.

Beautiful and underrated. Great museum in the visitors center with a fantastic presentation on the battle complete with lights. Miles of open land and places to walk.

Manassas Battlefield Park is beautiful maintained. The Visitor Center is excellent. Highly recommend the movie prior to touring the Battlefield. Very clean restrooms. The gift shop has an excellent variety of books. Recommend doing the driving tour if this is your first visit. Recommend a visit to Mathew Hill to see the two naval 12 pound howitzers that was used during the battle.

Really beautiful place, especially considering the history here. It's amazing that something so brutal and bloody could happen at such a beautiful place. I'm a fan of history, from all periods and places. This place has a very informative museum; as well as buildings from the period, period cannons, a cemetery, and several monuments dedicated to the battle. This place is kept up really well, and because it's spread out over so many acres you don't have to worry about it being too crowded. I hope it's around for many years to come so that it can teach people about its' history.

The battlefield was beautiful! The park rangers and the staff were so friendly and knowledgeable. My only con was that the driving tour was not as easy for me to follow as it is in Gettysburg. But I would definitely recommend and return.

It was ok. Probably the most interesting part was the museum at the visitor center. There is one semi-trail walk, all in the sun, that goes around a field. One confederate statue, some cool cannons and a wooden house. Around 40 parking spots.

We took the grand kids to explore the battlefield. The guided tour was terrific. The ranger was enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the battle, especially the context (our tour covered the 1st Battle of Bull Run). The visitor center has a great museum and the movie about the battles was extremely well done. I would caution that the scenes are very graphic and parents may want to discuss the movie before/after if your kids are 14 and younger.

We walked the 5.2 mile First Battle of Manassas Trail Loop. On the AllTrails app, it suggests the average walk time is 2 hours. Allot more time to stop and read the informative signs at the waypoints. It makes the trip more robust when you can understand what things are and the battles that were fought in the very place you are standing. The trail is well maintained, there are shortcuts along the way if you choose not to do the full loop, the bridge crossing Bull Run is out so we crossed through the water on rocks, and about half is in the woods (shaded) while the rest is out in the open. Be aware: the small parking lot was almost full when we arrived.

Interesting, historically accurate and moving. Gazing upon the area you can feel the spirit, the camaraderie and the dedication of the brave soldiers who lost their lives fighting for freedom.

This is a nice simple park to spend time at. There's a lot of history associated with it and they play a movie in the visitor center. The staff is friendly and there's a big parking lot. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here but if you're in the area, it's certainly worth a visit. Would recommend!

museum with movie at every hour animated map of the battleground inside free guided 45 min tour. Ask for starting time ( today 2pm )

Took the kids and got there early, did the educational film (45 min) in the visitor center, stamped passports etc and did the first Manassas loop. Took us about 2 hours (with kids) to do 4.5 miles so not bad. So much to see along the way, and the stone house was open so we got a nice little break to look around, talk to the rangers, and get their ranger pins.

Its very pretty place but a month ago a homeless guy yelled out "Anyone want some crack?!" while holding a bag of powder at like 9pm. This was in the parking lot.

Train station is basic but across the tracks is a coffee shop and some restaurants. Cute area. First time for me traveling by train and It's silly comfortable. Plenty of room. Could actually comfortably sleep. Can get up and walk up/down the train. Has a Dining car. Why do we not travel by train more often. This is great.

The indoor space is small. So if it’s a cold day make sure you have that extra layer. It’s easy to go to and get on/off the train. I’ve been through that station a few times and don’t recall seeing any staff member. Bathrooms are ok but sometimes the waiting room is a little dirty and needs attention.

Quaint little station in this historic Virginian town.

Passenger waiting room. Restrooms. Train status Digital display board.

I only been on it once and i just didn't stand it. I just was tired of 25 hour. I rarely ate in there clearly i did went to the cafe. I taste only onw hot meal and it was taste bad in my opinion. PLEASE GET BETTER FOOD. I couldn't get enough space at my seat when it was time to sleep i was unconrtable and couldn't sleep it kinda not clean on the floors. The bathroom was smelled. I only thing i like was the wifi

Found out ahead of our trip ( after a long wait on the phone) the hours of the Manassas train station waiting room: M-F 5am-10pm Sat-Sun 8am- 7:30pm

Hard to find even though it looks like a train station. 9431 West Street Address is not posted on West Street. No "Amtrak" signs??? Signs say Visitor Center. Platforms on both sides of the street so difficult to figure out where to go. Visitor Center is nice and rest room was clean.

Great place to Visit !!!! Lots of History and artifacts to help enrich our understanding of Manassas, how it was established, and the Amazing history of ALL the people that helped make Manassas a great place. We're really blessed to have this Museum !!! Thanks to all the people that made it happen.

Very fun with my two toddler boys. There was a craft area next to the bathrooms to make their own pinwheel, lots of Christmas trees decorated by local schoolchildren, which made the museum smell so festive and lovely. We visited originally to check out the playground which is directly behind the museum and leads to a short trail. The boys enjoyed the train jungle gym and a little metal butterfly we snapped a photo next to. Out front is a huge Christmas tree. We plan to return at night to get a great holiday family photo.

My family and I had a great time here. Great information on Manassas history. I particularly liked the displays and the audio history exhibit. They also had an area for a high school art exhibit, with beautifully impressive art.

Nice little museum. Never well kept. Great history inside. Wish it was bigger. But overall pretty nice

The Staff at Manassas Museum were very informative and kid friendly ! My sons and I had a great time together yesterday!

The museum docents are great and the place has interesting things to engage both young and old alike. It was very nice to see that the Museum was also having a sale during our visit! I was honored to be among the many community leaders featured in their temporary exhibit of "Faces of Manassas".

The museum is small but powerful. The staff is super helpful

Such a lost opportunity when they designed the addition they did not add the City of Manassas library, would of been great to have library and museum in one building...instead the library is at a stripmall next to Giant, sad

We had a blast at Splashdown Waterpark this past Labor Day!! It was a holiday as well as the very last day of the park being open for the summer, so of course it was busy, but it was still a great fun filled day!! They were open from 12pm-6pm & we arrived at 11:30am & there was already a long line to wait in, but once they opened, the line moved quickly!! The crowd started to die down some & become less crowded around 2:30pm. The only thing I don't like is that you can not take in outside food or drink besides water & I understand they want to make money on their food & drinks, but it would be great if you were at least allowed to bring a cooler of drinks!! Also, they have a huge sign that states that you can only wear SWIM WEAR, which is what should be worn to a swimming pool & there were people there that were not wearing swim attire at all, like I get that some religions don't allow for them to show their bodies/skin I get it, but you could find something else to wear other than flannel pajama pants!! I just feel if you're going to have rules of no outside food or drink, that has to be strictly prohibited because it's a company posted rule, then I feel like ALL of the company posted rules should have to be followed!!

The prices are affordable. They open at noon and close at 6PM. The food is a bit expensive compared to other places. Pizza shop closed at 3PM for some reason we were forced to buy either burger or hot dogs or chicken strips. You can't have your own food which is understandable. They closed the shower room and restroom at 5:30 PM for cleaning so we couldn't used it. Is a good place for the family and the kids worth visiting from time to time.

Pretty fun day for the kids. They had top-notch lifeguards and supervisors all over the park. I was impressed with how in synch they were. We arrived just before opening on a Friday. We didn't wait long to get inside. There was plenty of seating in the sun and shade. Quiet little alcoves, big party cabanas, and picnic tables available for reservations. We got to bypass the bag check by only taking in our towels, goggles, and sunscreen. We went back to the car for our cooler of water. That's the only outside item you can bring in. Their concessions were fully stocked and reasonably priced. We got a variety of things, and everyone was satisfied enough to continue swimming. The separate pool areas are great for younger kids. It gives everyone space to play and test out their swimming and safety skills. It was nice letting my older kids play in the deeper pool while I had a safe space for my 6 year old to get comfortable with the water. We will definitely return in the future.

Love this water park, great low price to get in ,food was good a lot to choose from,a lot of water slides,pools for all ages,will be going back

Had a great time at Splash down , this is a clean and inexpensive place to spend the day . The food was good and the staff was very friendly. Only a 45 minute ride from downtown DC it's a good getaway. Parking was adequate and the wait to get in wasn't as bad as the line appeared. Rule of thumb get there early because they close at 6pm.

We went there for memorial long weekend. We were there at 11.05 am (I.e the opening time) but little crowded at that time. Lots of parking but only limited rides but kids would definitely enjoy this place. I have spent a lot of time in lazy rides and pipeline rides. It would be nice if we have more slide length in cannonball ride. All the pools are clean and well maintained and worth for $16. We will be coming back again for another visit

This is a nice community water park. The Staff was friendly. It was very crowded on the day I went and it was hard to find a place to sit. The head lifeguard was polite and went and found a spot for us to sit. The lazy river was a little less lazy for my. If your looking for a place to cool off on a hot summer day and your in the area. Take a dip.

Splash Down was an amazing experience. I enjoyed it. My kids enjoyed it. My God kids enjoyed it. Overall I recommend this place 10 out of 10. It’s a lot of fun great food. friendly prices I would recommend this to all families that love the pool.

I love going here. The lazy river is by far the best part of the water park. It is kid friendly. Water slides for all age groups. Recommend that you get there early to reserve a spot or go online to reserve a spot. A very nice decent place to have fun for all ages. And the food there is delicious hands down.

Love it,this is great for little kids and everything here is just priced right (Compared to any other water park) Is NOT huge but neither the price,local here around here are bless for such a cheap water park which is great to spend quality time along with family and friends. * we came all the way from Delaware I know,NJ have bunch of them BUT i wanted to drive to another state and different park. NO regrets!!!

It has been years since I attended. My fam and I used to be regulars and their Lazy River was one of the most fun and relaxing experiences of my life. Then, I had the pleasure of leading groups of children there and SplashDown was VERY accommodating and were used to handling groups. Please check to see when/if they will reopen.

It is a nice Waterpark. There are a few things I thought made 0 sense, like exiting the lazy river from one side then having to walk around the park to get back to it and wait to have a staff pull a lone floaty to use??? The line to the lazy river was ridiculous at at times because there were no floaty available. Also, there were way too many leaves in the lazy river; I loved the trees, but hated the leaves in water.. The food was ok, as you can't bring food into the park, so have to buy food in the park. Overall, decent park

I strongly recommend that you bring your own, semi-delicious food and take the family to the car or anywhere else to have lunch and renter for free. My experience every time is that the food lines are usually pretty long 45 min just to order... there food is over prices and simply gross. This is a nice way to spend a family day. The park itself is pretty nice. Not only will your packed lunches taste better but it's also FASTER!

I truly enjoyed the Polish Wieniawski Philharmonic Orchestra. This was my first time. The center doesn't serve food just $3 snacks. I will return 2/19/22 for the Ballet Hispanico. I went 2/19/22 the ballet was fabulous

Attending Prince William Association of Realtors EXL Conference which was held at Hylton Performing Arts Center. It’s a lovely modern venue. Two story entry. Conference rooms were spacious. There is an elevator as well as a wheelchair accessible ramp to the second floor. Restrooms are large, clean and modern. Overall a very nice venue.

We saw a very nice show with my friend and her kids it was most spectacular and the place is most spacious and comfy and no matter where you are seated you have a nice view of the stage and the staff was most friendly.

The theaters are set up to hold small to large audiences. We enjoyed Sistas: The Musical while we visited. The seating was comfortable and the sound was good. We really enjoyed the show and venue.

Spectacular performances and a fantastic venue! The Hylton Performing Art Center offers a captivating blend of talent and state-of-the-art facilities. From intimate concerts to grand productions, every show is a treat for the senses. The staff is courteous, and the venue is well-maintained. A must-visit for any arts enthusiast!

Great facility for a show. Elevators were pretty busy so we ended up taking the grand stairs a few floors up. Found our seats in the box. Next time for a kids show, I'll choose seats down further... better perspective (wont show puppeteers) and safer (was worried about my 3 year old getting too close to the railing).

Beautiful facility. Stunning theatre. Ample rehearsal and holding rooms.

This is a great venue. The seats are large enough and comfortable. I'm always worried about not being able to see a performance because the people in front of me may be too tall. I been to this theatre about 10 times. I sat in various places in the orchestra and balcony and have never had a bad seat. I have always been able to sit comfortably and see the performances. Parking is free, and the performances are high quality.

Hylton Performing Arts Center is a great Venue to see different live performances. I've been there several times to see different things. It's nice and clean, the staff are friendly. One thing is Parking isn't always the best so make sure you get there early. Ticket prices are reasonable. And they offer a lot of for Military. I just recently saw CAMMO voices for free. Was an amazing concert.

Attended for a children's play Dot Dot Dot. It was excellent. The facility is wonderful. I've been wanting to attend for a long time and haven't made it until now. I'll definitely be back for more performances

It's a great theatre for local shows. Well laid out so all the seats have a good view. Parking is free and it's right off 234, so easy to get to.

Beautiful facility and very well maintained. They invest in military veterans by providing free tickets to them.

We went to a performance with an elementary school field trip and it was excellent! The performance was professional and fun and the ushers and other people who helped bring our group inside were clear with instructions and very patient with a ton of little kids. Great time overall!

I've gone as both a performer and an audience member. As a performer, it's a very nice stage with lovely dressing rooms and clean bathrooms. As an audience member, the seats are usually great no matter where you sit, the sound is awesome, and obviously the stage performances themselves are always an enjoyable experience.

Fantastic place for families. We enjoyed the live music, food was definitely over-average, pizza was delicious and pretzels were awesome! I’m removing one star just because, with so many people constantly there, the kids playground may be bigger and nicer, to avoid become quickly too crowded.

What a great time had by all. I would say the only thing that made me give 4 out of 5 instead of 5 stars would be no XXL T-shirts available for purchase & it would be nice if there were more vegan food options. I loved the beer, the giant pretzel was great, and the chicken wing’s were good. Live music is always a bonus and I did enjoy the band playing outside on the stage. Fun Times 😁

Whats a fun place! For both adults and kids. I think it’s very well layed out. There is plenty of parking on both sides. When we leaving it seemed it got busier and people were parking on the side of the road. There is a playground and plenty of space for the kids to play and run. We ordered beers, chicken wings, pizzas and the Mac and cheese for my son. Pizzas were amazing. The mac and cheese needed a bit more flavor. The pretzel was good and big enough for everyone to have a piece. You place your order for food onside. They get your phone number because you will receive a text when your order is ready. You have to walk back to where you ordered to pick up your food. You can leave a tab open and order drinks from anywhere. Now let’s talk about the seating. There are high bar communal tables. Then there’s the table on the back. I noticed people come to celebrate different things here which is amazing, a great place for it. But found it a bit of a bummer that people just had their belonging on the table and no longer consuming. We were at our table for like 30-40 minutes and that table with presents and no one around. But once you have your place to eat you enjoy your food and the kids enjoy playing. Win, win! If there’s room for dessert you can grab an ice cream at the red truck.

It’s an impressive compound but they need Jon Taffer to come in and organize it! There’s live music, drinks, food, fire pits, and play areas for kids. However, where 2 Silos falls short is in the food/service area. In my opinion any brewery that serves its beer in plastic cups just doesn’t respect their craft. The limited food options are served in the same unappealing way, in paper cartons with small plastic plates. The seating is a free for all and there’s no servers. So, we sat at a table and looked over the menu. Then, you have to go to a counter to order. By the time we were done ordering, other people were already sitting where we had been sitting. Their whole dining concept is just odd to me. I would recommend eating elsewhere then stopping here to listen to music and have a drink.

Incredible venue with a variety of food trucks, entertainment throughout the week, great beer, and the pizzas are phenomenal. The atmosphere is incredible with heated sitting area inside and out. Can't wait to come back down from Rochester, NY to visit 2 Silos again.

We visited this Brewery on Saturday evening. The environment was very lively. Live music outdoor seating and indoor seating both are good. Lot of good food options and beers as well.

Great spot, can't even lie. The food was definitely a 10/10 with a combination of the beer, it was 20/10! First time here and will definitely be back. The beers are reasonable price, food as well. They have a spot where you can play corn hole FREE 99 (as long as you give them your ID)

Always enjoy coming here. Great for families because there is a huge green area for the kids to run around, and there is a playground for the smaller kids to enjoy. Beer seems to be getting progressively better. I remember coming here when it first opened and thinking it was good but not great. Now it's good enough I'd want to bring a couple of growlers home with me. Also the food options are fantastic. There a several food trucks permanently on site that can satisfy whatever you're craving, and the food at the restaurant itself is really good. There is also an ice cream truck strategically placed next to the playground. Basically there is something for everyone. You will certainly not be disappointed.

Did not realize this is a massive compound. Very busy on a Saturday afternoon, however, service was efficient and smooth. There was a small issue with one of the apps, but they immediately offered a replacement. Prices are also fair. Will definitely return if I’m ever in the area again.

This place is so much fun! There are tons of food options from tacos to pizza to burgers. Lots of beer options and two silos even makes its own ciders. We came when Troy Breslow was playing and they did a great job! They had some indoor seating and the outdoor seating all has heaters and even an outdoor fireplace! Plenty of bathrooms as well

This place is like the Disneyland of Breweries! Something for everyone from kids to Adults. Lots of space. Lines get a little long when busy but the staff try and move them as fast as possible! 10/10 recommend going.

An hour outside of D.C. is a campus for everyone. A brewery, a top-rated restaurant, an ice cream truck, a playground, yard games, and a stage with live music, there’s something for everyone. Meeting friends who live in Virginia, my family of three went at 5:30 p.m. on a Friday in September. Here’s our experience. 1) Space: It’s a monster of a campus with plenty of free parking. There’s seating inside and even more outside in different areas. Dogs are allowed outside until 8 p.m. so we brought our puppy. My six-year-old daughter loved the playground and small hill nearby where kids were rolling down. The yard games were also a hit. (You need to get bean bags inside.) Even though it was filling up, we easily found an outdoor table that sat our group of seven. 2) Drinks: A brewery onsite, there are many types of beer on tap. Being a sour guy, I got the Strawberry Kiwi Sour. Honestly, it was among the worst sours I’ve had. It didn’t taste sour at all, but more hoppy. My wife enjoyed her IPA though. 3) Food: The menu includes pizzas, nachos, wings, and more. Ordering around 5:30 p.m., some of the items were $2 off. We got a cheese pizza, pepperoni pizza, wings, the trio dips, and nachos. Nothing was noteworthy, but our daughter liked the cheese pizza. The ice cream truck sold average ice cream and charges 75 cents for toppings like sprinkles (whipped cream and a cherry are complimentary). 4) Amenities: The live music was a good touch. It wasn’t so loud that it drowned out conversations, but added great background noise. Kids were dancing and enjoying the vibe.

This is a little hidden gem. If your looking for a great place to have a great time with the entire family. This is a great choice! Good food, great beer and a lot of things to do. They also have a stage outside for live music and events! This place really rocks though. Check their website to verify if it’s your type of music that day is or night! May or May not be what you like. It is a hard place to beat though.

Celebrated party! 10/10 on live music, sound quality better than night club or indoor venue. Fact that they have outdoor music with a good crowd always. Food was a good. I like how it didn't smell like smoke. Places that do stink and air was so clean. Very professional. Good investment 👍 will come back many more times. My friends keep inviting me already.

I had the best time ever. How could anyone rate them anything less than 5 Stars. OMG the best service I’ve had in a long time. The girls working on 09/27/23 did an awsome job! They represented your brewery incredibly. You should be proud to have them. Thanks for a wonderful time. I will be back! What an incredible experience. Oh yeah … great beers too!
