Additional Location Information

The Northern Neck is rich in history. Among other things it is the birthplace of presidents like George Washington and famous people such as Thomas Lee and Robert E. Lee. The history of the "Neck" runs deep in the history of the United States, even North Amercia. Before 1600, before the first English settlement, the Northern Neck was the land between the "River of Swans" to the north and the "Quick-Rising Water" to the South, two loosely translated Indian terms for the Potomac River and the Rappahannock River. To the east lies the Chesapeake Bay, otherwise known as the "Mother of Waters", the "Great Saltwater" or the "Great Shell-fish Bay", the largest estuary in North America. Captain John Smith visited this country in 1607. He was probably one of the area's first tourists.

The waters of the Potomac River, Rappahannock River, the Chesapeake Bay and their tributaries provide a haven for boaters and water enthusiasts, and have supported a fishing industry for generations. At the present, Colonial architecture, small-town charm, bed & breakfast inns, eight wineries, seventeen museums, historic sites, marinas and retail shops are among the valuable assets that attract visitors to the area.

Just far enough away - 55 miles from Richmond, 75 miles from Washington, 80 miles from Norfolk – for you to experience the road less traveled.

  Wonderful Vacation home

  Left on 05/24/2012 for a stay in July 2011
  
  

  My family and I stayed over the 4th of July. The community is great, lots to do...tennis, pool,ride bikes, fishing, crabbing and just relaxing on the dock my the river. My kids loved this riverhouse, playing outside and exploring, they especially loved the pool and daving board. The house is beautiful and well maintained. We have rented the house again this year and are looking forward to creating more wonderful memories.
