Hidden Oaks Nature Center, Annandale

Love this place! Well kept and very informative. They also have a really cool chainsaw carving of animals near the visitor center. Very kid friendly park. It is a smaller park, but it is very well kept and they have info about things (species, animal footprints) along the trails. I'm not sure if I went on slow day or what, but I was the only one in the park and it was very relaxing.

Great playground! Looks new! It is in full sun, so I’d recommend going early. We did the treasure hunt, which was more like a scavenger hunt with no treasure at the end. This was a little disappointing for my little ones who were looking forward to a treasure map and a treasure (which for the price and from the description, I also expected). However, they soon for got and enjoyed their private tour through the woods, looking for bugs and other animals. At end they also got to pet a box turtle so they were happy. Our guide was very knowledgeable.
