Potomac Yard Park

Quality playground with great options for children with disabilities. My daughter was able to have a fun time and I wasn't worried about some of the dangers for other playgrounds that have less safety features. Top notch! Only thing that could make it a perfect playground would be proper restrooms and NOT port-o-pottys. Only in NOVA will you have a high end playground surrounded by $1 million dollar+ homes and offer only the bare minimum in restrooms.

if you are a mother go to this place it is wonderful 2 play areas and a water splash area which is available in the summer

My kids enjoy this park. After a day in the city we stop by to play a but and grab a bite to eat in Alexandria. They love it. There are 2 different fenced in playgrounds for smaller vs larger kids and it's covered with rubberized tiles to reduce injuries. Very nice park and lots of room to run around.

Great park! Lots of space for kiddos to run around as well as a well-maintained playground. There are 2 playgrounds next to each other . Different size by with similar setups. I’ve been here in the fall but I can see how this could be uncomfortable in the summer Since it lacks shade. Overall definitely recommended and will most likely visit again.

Really great playground all year round! There are two playgrounds, each separately fenced in and just one entrance/exit so that it’s easier to keep track of little ones. The equipment provides lots of entertainment, plus there is ample room to run around. Lots of swings, including adaptive swings and “mommy and me” swings where an adult can swing with babies/toddlers.
In the summer, the splash pad between the two playgrounds is a huge hit and lots of fun! This area is NOT fenced in. There are some tables to eat at and benches, some of which are in the shade. Speaking of shade, there is very little and NONE of the play equipment or splash pad is shaded. As a result, the slides and swings get way too hot to play on and therefore the playgrounds are totally empty and the splash pad is packed. Honestly, though, the water is so fun that not many kids want to do anything else anyway. Bring sunscreen and plan on lots of fun! Note: shoes are required at the splash pad.
One last thing: it’s like planes, trains and automobiles at this park - you see planes taking off and landing, trains going by, and cars and trucks on the street (and right now with all the construction there are plenty of trucks). My little boy loves the park for this, so if your kid is like mine be sure to check it out!

This park is amazing for kids! Lots of things to do and they even have waterworks for the kids to cool off in over the summer. Definitely recommend!

Low planes fly by, trains go by…awesome for kids! Wheelchair Accessible play areas. Street parking, gated play areas, port-a-potty (large and small). Splash pads in summer. Swings for mommy and baby!

Kids liked the maze area a lot!
