Anacostia Park Pirate Ship Playground
What people say
A large themed playground near the recreation core gives children climbing, sliding, and imaginative play beside lawns and the river trail. Use Anacostia Drive and the recreation-area parking closest to the playground rather than the general park center. Play is free during park hours. Surfaces can become hot or wet, shade varies, and children need supervision around parking, bicycles, and the nearby riverfront.
