We also have had fun at the Hampton Aquaplex in VA.
Another vote for Hampton. State of the art. UMD doesn't compare.

About the only negative is they started to run low on money for the refurbishment and cheaped out on the grandstands with "high school football type bleachers".
That’s the only reason I didn’t name it. Awesome for swimming, not awesome for watching

Because the county won't let them do meets.
Also serious parking issues during meets.

They don’t seem to host many meets?
Rouse is not much better than the Fairfax County rec centers. Locally, I’d say UMd and PWCS are the nicest.
Rouse is 100x better than Audrey Moore, Providence, and others.

No they don’t. Not sure why. I’m guessing parking. But it is gorgeous facility.
