Acreage, mileage, tenants and tee sheets — verified open as of August 2026
The Leesburg community guide on this site is about constraints: the town line, the H-1 overlay, the airport contours, the floodplain. This page is the other half — what is here to use. Everything below was checked against the operator's own current source in August 2026, and anything I could not confirm was left out rather than guessed at. Parks and public land lead, because a 223-acre battlefield does not quietly close between the day a guide is written and the day someone drives out to it.
The Town of Leesburg's Parks & Recreation Department maintains 17 parks, and the anchor is Ida Lee Park at 138 acres on Ida Lee Drive NW — soccer and lacrosse fields, two playgrounds, walking trails, a gazebo, the Master Gardeners' Demonstration Garden and 70 community garden plots, all on land donated in 1986. Tuscarora Creek Park adds 29 acres near the centre of town. Outside the corporate limits, NOVA Parks holds the good ground. Ball's Bluff Battlefield Regional Park, off Ball's Bluff Road north-east of town, is 223 acres with more than seven miles of marked trails, including a segment of the Potomac Heritage Trail and a mile-long loop to the bluff overlook; the gates are open dawn to dusk for self-guided walking, and volunteer-led tours run at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, April through November. Red Rock Wilderness Overlook Regional Park, 43098 Edwards Ferry Road, is 67 acres of steep wooded trail ending at a Potomac overlook, open sunrise to sunset. Rust Nature Sanctuary is 68 acres of forest, meadow and ponds. And Morven Park's roughly 1,000 acres north-west of town open its grounds and gardens 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, free, dogs on lead.
The Washington & Old Dominion Railroad Regional Park runs 45 paved miles from Shirlington to Purcellville on the old railbed, with a 32-mile crushed-stone bridle path alongside much of it, open 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. year-round. Leesburg sits near the western end, and NOVA Parks lists Leesburg East and Leesburg West among its named access points — the practical ones being the Douglass Community Center lot off Sycolin Road and the Loudoun County High School lot off Catoctin Circle, where parking is weekend-only during the school year. What makes the trail usable rather than merely nearby is the Leesburg Bike Trail Network, designated in April 2017: over ten miles of shared-use path, bike lane and signed route, of which the Blue Trail runs seven miles from the W&OD at Tuscarora Creek Park and the Green Trail runs 2.6 miles from the W&OD near Fox Ridge Park. From much of town you can reach the trail without putting a bike on a car.
Leesburg Premium Outlets sits at Fort Evans Road NE on the east side of town, immediately off Route 7 and the Bypass. Its own directory listed 109 entries as of August 2026, trading 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., and the roster runs well past ordinary outlet fare: Burberry, Ferragamo, Tory Burch, Marc Jacobs, Armani Outlet, BOSS Outlet, Vince, Theory Outlet, Kate Spade New York Outlet, Coach Outlet, Polo Ralph Lauren, TUMI, Movado Company Store, Williams-Sonoma Outlet, Pottery Barn Outlet and Le Creuset. Verify before you build a trip around one name — Saks Fifth Avenue Off 5th, which older write-ups still list here, does not appear in the centre's current directory, while Hollister and Toys "R" Us appear as coming soon rather than open. Two miles further east on Route 7 at Crosstrail Boulevard, the Village at Leesburg is an open-air centre anchored by Wegmans, with ULTA, Trek Bicycle, PR Run & Walk, White & Ivory Fine Jewelry, Lucky Strike Entertainment and the Phoenix Theatres Village 14 cinema; Silver Branch Brewing and Biryani Grill were listed as coming soon in August 2026, not yet trading. Downtown, the retail is small-format along King and Loudoun Streets — Mom's Apple Pie Company at 220 Loudoun Street SE keeps 11 a.m.–6 p.m. Monday to Saturday, 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Sunday.
Lansdowne Resort, 44050 Woodridge Parkway off Route 7 east, holds 45 holes across courses credited to Greg Norman and Robert Trent Jones Jr., and its own site describes play as exclusive to members and resort guests. Raspberry Falls Golf & Hunt Club, 41601 Raspberry Drive north of town off Route 15, is the daily-fee option — 18 holes designed by Gary Player, booking tee times online as of August 2026. Two private clubs sit east of town: River Creek Club at 43800 Olympic Boulevard, membership-only, with its 18-hole Ault-Clark course above the Potomac plus tennis, pickleball, pool and four dining rooms; and Belmont Country Club, an Arnold Palmer course at 19661 Belmont Manor Lane in Ashburn, also membership-only. Public tennis is genuinely public: at the Ida Lee Park Tennis Center, 70 Ida Lee Drive NW, walk-up play on one court is free with a one-hour limit when others are waiting, reserved outdoor courts run $10 an hour for town residents and $12 for non-residents, and indoor court time and 2026–2027 seasonal contracts are handled at the A.V. Symington indoor facility. For horses, Morven Park's International Equestrian Center runs a full calendar — Spring Horse Trials 28–29 March 2026, and Morven Park International 8–11 October 2026.
Leesburg is not on navigable water, so boating means a short drive. Beaverdam Reservoir at 22211 Water Vista Drive in Ashburn, a Loudoun Water and NOVA Parks partnership, covers roughly 1,000 acres of reservoir and shoreline with trails open dawn to dusk and a seasonal marina renting kayaks, canoes and paddleboards. Algonkian Regional Park, 47001 Fairway Drive in Sterling — about fifteen miles east on Route 7 — is 838 acres on the Potomac with river access, an 18-hole course, riverside cottages and Volcano Island Waterpark. Closer in, Temple Hall Farm Regional Park at 15855 Limestone School Road is a working farm open Tuesday to Sunday, 9 a.m.–4:30 p.m. from April through September and daily 9 a.m.–5 p.m. in October for the pumpkin patch and sunflower fields; no dogs. South on Route 15, Stone Tower Winery occupies a 300-acre estate at 19925 Hogback Mountain Road, open Thursday to Monday, 11 a.m.–6 p.m., and was preparing a downtown Leesburg tasting room called The Vault for 2026.
Downtown Leesburg's anchors cluster within a few blocks of the courthouse. Tuscarora Mill — Tuskie's — has been at 203 Harrison Street since the mill building was converted; it serves 11 a.m.–10 p.m. Monday to Thursday, until 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Sunday brunch from 10 a.m., and had a five-course Chilean wine dinner on the books for 16 September 2026. Fire Works Pizza, wood-fired, opens daily at 11 a.m. at 201 Harrison Street SE with fourteen rotating drafts and a dog menu for the patio. Shoe's Cup & Cork runs as an all-day brasserie with a walled garden. The Tally Ho Theater on Market Street was selling tickets through December 2026 when checked. Culture is public and cheap: the Loudoun Museum at 16 Loudoun Street SW opens for First Fridays and ran Revolutionary Stories programming through autumn 2026, and Thomas Balch Library at 208 W Market Street — the town's history and genealogy library — is carrying the America 250 commemoration, including a Revolutionary War walking tour on the TourLeesburg app. Six miles south on Route 15, Oatlands, a National Trust for Historic Preservation site, opens daily 10 a.m.–5 p.m. across 418 acres, with mansion tours Thursday to Monday at 11, 1 and 3.
Openings, hours and tenants were confirmed as of August 2026. Businesses change — check before you make the trip.
