Local restaurants for fresh seafood and Farmer's Market weekends in Tappahannock. History buffs will love Fredericksburg, Colonial Williamsburg, Bush Gardens, and Water World for the kids.

Living room with gas fireplace, reclining sofa & loveseat, and TV with Roku. Ample backyard space for grilling and games. Relax and watch the wildlife meander on the air-conditioned sun porch. One quarter-mile entry lane is great for morning and evening walks and biking on the property.

Other Things to Note
Large grill with infrared, rotisserie, and in-line gas hook-up on the premises. Designated wooded path with picnic tables to the fishing pond. No limit on the number of fish caught.
