Lancaster County, Virginia
The Northern Neck of Virginia is home to Lancaster County. It’s where water defines life. The Rappahannock River hugs its southern border while the Chesapeake Bay laps at its eastern shore.
You can’t go far without bumping into history. Colonial-era churches and grand homes are a common sight. Kilmarnock is the largest town. Its Main Street is perfect for an afternoon stroll.
Fishing and boating are big here. Locals swear by the oysters. They’re plump, briny, and fresh out of the bay. Summer brings an influx of vacationers, drawn by the laid-back vibe and water views. But come winter, things quiet down.
