Plenty of benches for resting to just to take in the beautiful views. Plenty of green grass for those who want to picnic on a blanket, read a book, or throw a frisbee.

This place was extremely extraordinary. Very beautiful peaceful place with plenty of space to do whatever you could think of. We had a football game, soccer game, zumba, basketball game, tennis game, and a three mile walk going on all at the same time with plenty of space leftover! The pavilion upkeep was great and they had clean grills and plenty of seats under the pavilion for company events with an area for a dj. This is by far the best pavilion in the area maybe in Maryland! Great job Centennial...
