Lake Fairfax Park Extends Marina Season, Adds Party Packages


Tour boatIn years past, Labor Day weekend marked the end of the boating season at Lake Fairfax Park in Reston, Va. However, this year the marina will remain open weekends and holidays through the end of October. Campers and visitors will now enjoy an extra two months of exploring the 20- acre lake by canoe, paddle boat, or aboard a guided tour boat.

The extended marina season is also good news for children with fall birthdays. Lake Fairfax is now offering birthday party packages for parties of up to 14 children. Standard packages include rental of a lakefront picnic shelter for two hours, rides on a beautifully restored antique carousel, and ice cream. The deluxe package includes a ride aboard a tour boat. Lakefront picnic shelters have electricity and are perched atop a hill, affording sweeping views of the lake and surrounding forest.

The cost for a standard party is $110, and deluxe parties are $135. Weekend and holiday reservations can be booked in two-hour blocks from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., 1:30 to 3:30 p.m., and 4 to 6 p.m. Additional children may be added for $5 per child for a standard party and $8 per child for a deluxe party.

Families and partygoers alike are always welcome to explore the park’s 479 acres of woods, fields, and growing network of trails. The campground includes both tent sites and RV hookups (RV sites are closed for construction until March 2013), and the lake is a popular place for fishermen to cast a line.

For more information about the marina or birthday party packages, call 703-471-5415, or visit online.

Lake Fairfax Park is located at 1400 Lake Fairfax Drive in Reston, Va.
