Surrounded by natural waterways including the scenic Corrotoman River, Virginia's Northern Neck has been a boating, swimming and fishing paradise since Indian and Colonial days. Wherever you go you are not far from incredible opportunities to boat, antique, sample fairs and restaurants or cruise the old pirate islands in the Chesapeake Bay. Excellent golfing offered at several championship courses. Belle Isle State Park on the Rappahannock River and Hughlett Point Nature Preserve are nearby. Stratford Hall and Wakefield, vineyards, local arts, music and crafts abound. The Northern Neck is near Washington DC, Richmond and Williamsburg-Yorktown-Jamestown, which makes this narrow, picturesque peninsula a sought after destination to escape city turmoil. First visited by Captain John Smith in 1608, it has much of the unspoiled beauty.
