Where was "The Maze" ?

Does anybody with a memory left from the late 1960s recall exactly where the place known as "The Maze" was located? In the days before social media, seems like high school kids from different schools would just know to show up, party and maneuver their way through the manicured hedges. I was there once when cops raided it and took names and sent everybody home. Somebody once mentioned they thought it was on the campus of a girls school. Am pretty sure it was in Fairfax County.

I'm thinking it might have been at Medeira School for girls near McLean.
The woman that ran that place murdered Dr.Tarnower from New York.
Back in the 70s ,I think.

Okay, you cannot just drop that nugget of FFX history without elaboration.

John S. Gilreath kidnapped and tortured Natalia "Tasha" Semler on the grounds of the Madeira School in McLean on October 29, 1973. However, he did not rape her, and Tasha died of a combination of shock and exposure.

Following his arrest, Gilreath steadfastly denied killing Tasha, but tying a 14-year-old child to a tree then torturing her before finally abandoning her to succumb to her injuries and the elements counts as murder in my book, and the jury that convicted him in May 1974 saw it the same way.

Gilreath died in prison over 35 years later, in December 2009.
