Reston, VA, is located 25 miles west of Washington, DC, and eight miles east of Dulles International airport.
The city's founders' unique vision was to build a city that offers a balanced level of work, business, play, schools, and places of worship. The result gives you a city with convenient access to restaurants and shopping but keeps the advantage of the town's beautiful outdoor space.
Reston's open spaces include seven lakes, ponds, and eight hundred acres of woodland. This city is a perfect mix of unique events and activities for everyone without the cluster and sprawl of big-city living.
Golfers can enjoy two courses, while hikers and bikers are granted miles of nature trails. The area can entertain the animal lover at Roer's Zoofari, an interactive zoo with a self-drive safari!
Fort Myer is the nearest significant military base, twenty miles from Reston. Fort Myer offers an Exchange, a Commissary, and an information and ticket office.
