Anacostia Park

Anacostia Park covers over 1,200 acres on the banks of the Anacostia River in Washington, D.C. The park includes Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens, Kenilworth Marsh, and the Langston Golf Course. 

Anacostia Park offers facilities for baseball, picnics, basketball, and tennis. In addition the park features the Anacostia Park Pavilion, large space for roller skating and special events.

The Langston Golf Course offers an 18-hole course as well as a driving range.

Access to the Anacostia River is easy as well. There are three marinas, four boat clubs, and a public boat ramp which provide access to the tidal Anacostia River for recreational boating.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I visited the park over the weekend and it's lovely, the only things that I was upset about was that along that side where the skating rink is at the grass wasn't cut and the boating ramp where I and my friend put our boats in at was un-kept. The debris from the hi tide was all around the boating dock and took more effort to put our boats in because of it. My suggestion is to have someone monitor that dock area during the high and low tide cycle. Thank you.
