Vehicle Required
This area is between the cities of Fredericksburg and Richmond VA. Public transportation is not a feasible way to get around. Luckily most places have more than enough parking. If heading into Washington DC for the day, you might want to consider using the VRE out of Spotsylvania or Fredericksburg (most have plentiful free parking).
