Sightseeing

Hike from the bottom up about a mile (parking immediately off Route 7) or drive up to the upper lot for a short romp to the rocks. Spring and Fall you may want to take a light jacket and catch the sunset over the valley…beautiful.

Great hiking. Historic town with fun shops and eateries. Take a stroll across the bridge and marvel at the convergence of the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers! The General Store is my personal favorite. And grab coffee and breakfast or lunch at Battlegrounds Coffee.

Best waffles and coffee…hands down! All the waffles are Gluten Free! We love to order the shared French Press, but the Valencia is pretty yummy too. If Kaitlyn (owner) is there, tell her Ms. Burzio says hi!

Neighborhoods

Our neighborhood, Avon Bend, is quiet and friendly. Warm temps and sun bring kids out on bikes, families walking, and plenty of wild four-legged creatures. Please drive with great care. Dogs must be leashed when walking the neighborhood and while on the property. If you happen upon one of our neighbors, just say you are visiting from out of town. We don’t advertise the AirBnB.

Excellent local cider! Malice is a favorite! If you head this direction, check out the VA Farm Market located about a mile before you get to the Ciderworks.
