“Booked a private party for 15, price included food, drink tickets, dessert. From booking, to playing, to eating, the experience was great! Tara helped explain the process and Brian did a great job of coaching our team and giving us the attention us novice axe throwers needed!”
“From the moment we stepped onto Waldo & Shirley’s property, we knew it was something special. It was the ideal backdrop for our wedding, and their care, expertise, and curated vendor recommendations made the planning process both easy and enjoyable. Their dedication and genuine warmth meant the world to us, and we’re incredibly thankful for the role they played in bringing our vision to life.”
“We hosted our baby shower at Founders hall and couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
An industrial kitchen, a good sound system, ample furniture and space for 100+ guests and loads of parking, it was a pretty turnkey experience.
Working with Christie was very easy. She was quick to respond to my emails and helped me out when we had a last minute hiccup with the payment.
We will definitely be repeat customers!”
“This was fun for a girls night! Everything was explained step by step and our instructor was great. It was relaxing, I never felt rushed. This would be great for kids too!”
“Choosing our wedding venue was one of the biggest decisions we made, and we could not be happier that we chose Riverside on the Potomac. From the very beginning, working with Suzi was such a wonderful experience. She was incredibly easy to communicate with, helpful, and made the entire process feel smooth and enjoyable.
The property itself is absolutely beautiful. The barn and grounds have so much charm and character, and what I loved most was the versatility of the space. Rustic is not typically my personal style, but I was amazed at how we were able to transform the venue into something that felt elegant, elevated, and completely “us.”
One of the biggest advantages of choosing this venue was their incredible relationships with vendors. Their preferred vendor list was filled with talented, trustworthy professionals, and having that level of connection made the planning process so much easier. It truly took a lot off of our plate and gave us confidence that we were working with people who already knew and loved the venue.
Our wedding day was everything we hoped it would be, and we are so grateful to Suzi and the entire team for helping make it such a special and memorable experience. We would absolutely recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful, unique space with a team that genuinely cares.”
“My kid had such a great experience with The Painted Tiger Art Studio! If you’re looking for a summer camp for kids that’s creative and well-organized, their art summer camp is amazing.
It really feels like an upscale art camp—from the space to the projects to the attention each child gets. My kid came home excited every day and couldn’t stop talking about what they made.
Highly recommend this creative summer camp if you want your child to have a fun and enriching summer!”
“I love The Conche! It’s my favorite in Leesburg! We come here often and today we celebrated my birthday. Our waiter, Jason even sang Happy Birthday to me. Exceptional service from Jason and the food was delicious!”
“100/10 wedding venue!!!
We got married here in April 2026, and it was an absolute dream. FLAMS was the 4th venue we toured, and an immediate match!! Patricia and Karl have created the most authentic, beautiful slice of heaven on their farm, and it was such a privilege to get married here. We worked most closely with Patricia, who is a wonderful, creative person who will go above and beyond to help bring your vision to life!
I also cannot shut up about the incredible and unique details at the farm-- including but not limited to: mini ponies you can lead out at cocktail hour, horses your guests can pet, a BEAUTIFUL barn with windows that make the reception area GLOW at golden hour, a Juliette balcony behind the sweetheart table, and a laundry list of things you just have to experience in person! The venue is already so beautiful that the only decoration you need to bring is flowers and any personal touches you want.
I am so thankful we found this farm and get to take a piece of it with us in our memories and photos <3”
“We will definitely come back. Toured the house and the docent was very knowledgeable and invested in the history of Oatlands and the history of the families that lived there.”
“The Murray Hill barn is an absolutely beautiful property. Very spacious and was well equipped with items we needed. More than the venue, Peggy, the owner, is an absolute pleasure to work with. She’s highly responsive and helped us out so much the day before and on the day of the event! We held our baby shower event and I wouldn’t choose any other venue and wouldn’t have it any other way!
Thank you, Peggy & team!”
“We come here often to Kava Kava bar to eat. My favorite place to grab a bite when I’m lazy but still wanna eat on the healthier side. Much better for you than any fast food and in my opinion it’s really good but my hb dislike it to the max. It’s great tho, you should try it .”
“The Zamboni Experience was awesome! We enjoyed learning how it works and the history of how it’s evolved, as well as learning about how the rink ice was designed and created. Instructors were so informative, patient and encouraging. Highly recommend this!”
“My sister and I had such an incredible time at Hunt View Riding Academy! I’ve been riding for a few years in Poland and couldn’t wait to share this experience with my sister at Hunt View Riding.
From the moment we arrived, everything felt welcoming and well-organized. Alberto was fantastic — professional, patient, and clearly passionate about what he does. His love for the horses and the experience he creates for riders really shines through, and he made sure we felt comfortable and confident throughout the trail ride.
The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and Alberto’s son joined us to take some stunning photographs that perfectly captured the day. The photos are such a special keepsake from an unforgettable experience.
We left feeling relaxed, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend Hunt View Riding Academy to anyone looking for a memorable horseback riding adventure!”
“I could not be more impressed by this place! The food was like being at a 5-star resort! I haven't stopped talking about the jerk chicken and how it was better than than what we had IN Jamaica! I don't know who's grandmother is in the back cooking, but give them a raise! We were there for 3 days and every single meal was off the charts! The classrooms were great. The bathrooms were super clean and nice. Close to the airport and hotels. Such a cool concept for off-site meetings. LOVED IT! Well Done!”
“Excellent facility, great for a wedding or special event. Parking lot has no lights so bring a flashlight if your event goes into the night. The lights are probably 10 watt bulbs and my wife tripped trying to get to the car because we couldn't see anything ...very dark. Otherwise an amazing place and we had a great time at the facility”
“Attended a wedding here. The grounds are beautiful. Although the day of the wedding, was raining, the house was cozy and accommodated the ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner. Lovely venue and wonderful staff.”
“We organized a Bar Mitzvah ceremony and celebration at Aix La Chappelle Farm in September, and the event space made the experience truly magical. The facilities are well-maintained, the landscaping was gorgeous, and the overall ambiance of the place made for a uniquely memorable experience. Special thanks to the property hosts who supported us all along the way -- we are grateful!”
“Remarkable staff. Clean entrance hall. Nice Furnishing. Scenic view of the Potomac River. Outside Patio was organized.
I would have given 5 stars had more thought been put into the needs of the elderly club members. Requirement: a novel platform to carry elderly/handicapped customers up and down stairs. Elevator is outdated tech. Elderly avoid using traditional elevator Becuz of the stigma associated with “lack of mobility”. An open elevator platform allowing safe stable access to all floors wud be a thoughtful touch (a novel method that would allow seamless transfers between floors) and allow the disabled customer to forget he/she was disabled. The members that hosted me was a cute elderly couple. They showed visible challenges walking short distances. Somewhat dismayed as they were excited to show me the club, but saddened when they couldn’t accompany me up or down the stairs. The adorable couple resorted to pointing me up the flight stairs to tour the upper level of the club and patio while they stood waiting for my return at the foot of the stairs. It’s not how I was raised, the elders/disabled are the center of the family ethos. We carry them where ever they need to go w/o hesitation. These are respectable patriotic club members and deserve the best. What is the current demographic of the clubs membership? How many elderly and/or disabled club members?
Looking forward to visiting again and praying for leadership. (Lead from the front, major boost to the clubs image for a nominal investment).”
“Attended judo event. Place is fine for a sporting event that is about half the size of a high school basketball game on terms of spectators. Parking for this event was inadequate but that was not on hoops plus.”

“We had 2 events at the Cherry Blossom Banquet Hall at the end of May 2026 and we couldn't be happier with the service and value that we got.
Marco is a true professional and is very responsive and transparent in his communication. He took the time to discuss all our food choices and decor options at multiple times and gave us plenty of options. His staff was truly professional on the day of the event as well and were always present to handle any issues.
The food was exceptionally good (we had the Pakistani and Afghan menu) The service was amazing and throughout the process Marco was ever present to direct his crew and answer any questions. I'd highly recommend this place for fantastic value, professional event coordinator (Marco) and very tasty food.”

“Overall liked the hotel with one exception; the WiFi here is absolutely horrible. I travel for work and game in my spare time. Internet connection was so bad I couldn't even play, let alone watch a movie on Netflix without crazy amounts of lag.”
“Holy moly the customer service in this place was outstanding. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a cute date or bonding activity.
It takes no more than 30-45 minutes and the staff there were great. Awesome vibes, good times and a unique experience that everyone should try at least once. Will be going back! ❤️
Special shout-out to Katelyn and the girl with the tattoos (I'm sorry I didn't get your name!) thanks for making our experience awesome.”

“Room was fantastic, 2 double size beds. Although I was alone. However; one thing I didn't like was after reserving the Room, paying for it and also insurance I was made to pay a $50.00 incidental fee upon checking in and was made to feel I wouldnt be able to even unload my one suitcase if I didn't pay this incidental charge, although I had already purchased the insurance. There for my 11 year old field trip & the kids stayed next door at other hotel so what incidentals are they referring & never got money back. I did use a towel maybe that why. Other wise great place! Sounds counter-intuitive but very clean & staff very nice.”

“A good hotel. It was clean, quiet, and I slept well. Standard Hyatt breakfast. Free parking, unlike the nearby Hyatt House. Wifi speed was 48/52 Mbps. I paid 4500 Hyatt points for the room.”
“i went here for the first time last weekend. it looks so sleek and fresh in there. it seems like a fairly new place, the shoes looked brand new and were clean. the workers were so kind and assisted us promptly with all our needs. they have cool games at the arcade, you need a game card for them. the bowling experience was really nice. the only issue i had was the food wasn't that great, the fries were piping hot and tasty. however, the birria tacos that i got weren't that flavorful and the sauce that came with it was extremely oily and tasted unpleasant. i would definitely go back though to bowl.”

“I do wish there was more store and restaurant options closer. That being said the property is well taken care of. The staff hear is outstanding. The front desk, management, housekeeping and maintenance staff here are all high character people. They are very pet friendly, my dog Jolie loves seeing all her friends that work here.”
“For a micro wedding or small event, this should be your first choice! It is a beautiful space with a phenomenal staff. Sheila and her team will surprise you in the BEST way: their skills in decor, their willingness and patience to work with you on your price and vision, transparency with the contract and budget, and it is always a joy to support a woman and black-owned business. I will certainly be booking them for a major event in the future.”
