Summer is in full swing!  The long days are perfect for swimming and hiking, and the evenings are ready for campfires and smores.  When you are searching for an area to call home, it’s important to explore it and see if it fits what you and your family.  Here are a few reasons why Locust Grove, VA is a great place to live in the summer.

Proximity to the outdoors: While the Locust Grove area is a mix of neighborhoods (Wilderness Shores, Lake of the Woods, and Somerset just to name a few) and more rural areas with homes on acreage, the proximity to many outdoor activities is great.  You can take a day trip to Shenandoah National Park, tour the Civil War battlefields, pick fresh fruit at Miller Farms Market, and much more! Here are some free summer activities to do around Locust Grove!

Rural Living with Convenience:  In Locust Grove, it’s not hard to turn off of Rt. 3 and quickly find yourself on a country road.  However, the convenience of nearby shopping like Walmart, CVS, and Food Lion make it easy to have the necessities you need for everyday life without driving far.

Close to larger towns and cities:  With Culpeper and Fredericksburg nearby, you can take advantage of all the entertainment and shopping the towns have to offer whenever you want.
