Locust Shade Park is a small gem of the Prince William County Parks and Recreation system and it has amenities to suit all ages. Besides the natural beauty and picturesque trails, the park has a fishing lake with marina, bank fishing, picnic tables and pavilions, tennis courts, miniature golf, batting cage, golf driving range and several playgrounds. Because of Covid-19, paddle boats and canoes are not available for rent nor is the amphitheater open. Five miles of relatively easy trails are available for hiking, dog walking or jogging. This park is a popular place for boy and girl scouts. A garden dedicated to a Girl Scout leader is near GRŌ, a natural science education center, is not open to the general public but available to school-age children to explore and interact in a natural setting. One of the trails leads to the Semper Fidelis Memorial Park, part of the National Museum of the Marine Corps complex.

The National Museum of the Marine Corps is a lasting tribute to U.S. Marines--past, present, and future. Situated on a 135-acre site adjacent to Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia, and under the command of Marine Corps University, the Museum's soaring design evokes the image of the flag-raisers of Iwo Jima and beckons visitors to this 120,000-square-foot structure. World-class interactive exhibits using the most innovative technology surround visitors with irreplaceable artifacts and immerse them in the sights and sounds of Marines in action. Admission and parking are always free.

If you are visiting Washington DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia in the near future I highly recommend visiting The National Museum of the United States Marine Corps located in Quantico, Virginia It is absolutely amazing and the attention to detail is incredible. Give your self a full day to really experience this amazing Museum. It would do no justice to rush through all the exhibits. Definitely looking forward to returning in the near future. The National Museum of the United States Marine Corps is located beside Quantico Marine Base. Very easy to find due to its proximity to I-95 and you will see plenty of signs a long the highway. A must visit when passing through The Washington DC Area.

Park that offers campsites and recreational programs for families and children.

I was really impressed by how much you can do outdoors here in a relatively small area. We visited on a weekend and were greeted with lots of bicycle riders parking at the entrance / visitor center area. There's a quick path there to hike which isn't so strenuous, but is a little crowded. If you head towards the back of the park there are far less people and thus more time in nature for longer, slightly harder hikes. Lots of dedicated camping sites as well with (what looked from a distance) as great accessory facilities, making this a good test ground for new campers or just an escape for city folks. Great place for many return visits!
