We love coming here with our grandson. He had his 4th birthday party here. So much for kids to do! There's a miniature train and a carousel as well as playground equipment for children of various ages. The Nature Center is wonderful.

White Oak Lanes

Reviewed By StephenPetruccelli

I have been bowling at White Oak Lanes for over 30 years, including a league that I was in for 20 of those years. White Oak is one of the few, if not the only Duckpin Lanes that are still in operation after decades. The staff is great, the lanes are clean and their snack bar is very good. I recommend White Oak Lanes to anyone who loves duckpin bowling.

This rec trail meanders through a valley along Sligo Creek in Silver Spring area. It is loaded with thick, tall trees so makes a great place to walk on a hot day. Watch for fast cyclists!
