About Sawyer's Mill Park

Natural Escape in the City

Spread across 14.4 acres, Sawyer's Mill Park offers a refreshing breath of nature right in the middle of the Sawyer's Mill neighborhood. It's a local favorite - a place where you can hear yourself think while still being close enough to grab takeout on your way home.

The park has a mix of open green spaces for throwing a frisbee and wooded areas that provide shade on hot Virginia summer days. Meandering walking paths thread through the grounds, making it easy to get your steps in while appreciating the natural scenery - no fancy gym membership required.

Where Kids Can Be Kids

The park has options for children with energy to burn. The park features play areas designed for children of various ages, with equipment that's kept in good shape and won't give you anxiety about splinters or rusty edges.

Need to refuel after all that play? There's a covered picnic area available. It's clean, well-maintained, and meant for everything from impromptu sandwich lunches to those birthday parties where you don't want twenty kids running around your living room. The space works wonderfully for community gatherings too, whether it's a seasonal celebration or just a casual meetup.

Room to Breathe

While you won't find tennis courts or baseball diamonds here, the park's open areas provide plenty of space for a casual game of catch, some yoga on the grass, or simply sprawling out with a good book.

What really sets Sawyer's Mill Park apart is its peaceful atmosphere - it's clean, quiet, and feels removed from the usual hustle without being inconveniently remote. Looking to bring your four-legged friend? Just note that the dog park is about a mile away at Deep Creek Park, so you might want to save Sawyer's Mill for the humans in your family.
