Rippon Lodge Historic Site

A little gem in Eastern Prince William. The home dates to 1747, and I hope to explore it sometime, but as a place to take a walk with our dog it is simply wonderful. The property has lots of little paths, a teaching garden, cool breezes, flowers here and there, views, birds and sweet smells from the native and cultivated plantings.

Bring bug spray for the mosquitos! We just wandered around the property on a Sunday evening. The gift shop was already closed so we didnt go inside the house. It was easy to social distance because no one else was there. I would like to come back some day for a guided tour to learn more.

This place is like a snapshot back in time beautiful grounds!

What a very pleasant place to see, relax, chill. I witnessed a live murder mystery one night that was very nice then visited the WWII display another weekend. House is really cool and I think George Washington stayed there. Nice hosts and tour people.

Very interesting site. We enjoyed the tour of the house. Learned a lot about history of the area.

This was a pretty cool place to explore with the family. We like to get into the history of where we live and this place has plenty of that.

The staff is full of historic information and oh so friendly! We went on a murder mystery tour and it was wonderful! After the tour there was a storyteller about deaths-by-duel true stories that ended up at the house and smores!

Saw a ghost through the top window here when I was a kid. recently came back and Its a beautiful place, I would also haunt it.

Great walking, excellent nests for PoGo

It is a really nice place and the tour was very fun.

Well run museum rich in historical information. Very relaxing atmosphere. Enjoy the experience.

I explored just the grounds on this visit, my first. Will return to share the lodge with a friend. There is a lot to see, theres a garden that attracts beautiful butterflies. I found their beehive by accident, good thing I had read about it. You dont want to excite the bees.

Just happened upon this place while exploring nearby our campground. Very nice staff, beautiful historic property with a huge garden that they let you pick from! We picked some fresh veggies and herbs and used them in our dinner that night! Will definitely go back to explore more of the property and the garden!

Nice historic location. Well maintained. Could use a few more signs to describe the various outbuildings and such.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed this site. Very historic and great location.

Tourist nice and knowledgeable. Activities for kids if scheduled in advance

Staff is always wonderful! My family loves the outdoor movie nights!

Beautiful local spot

Great place to relax and spend quality time with the family. Hard to believe this is in the heart of PWC.

I want to say it sucks do no one else will go there. The Hidden Gem of PWC my guy

Its a nice little historic park. And a quiet place in Suburbia.

I attended the National Honeybee Day event with my husband. We toured Rippon Lodge. Ive never seen so many butterflies in one place before. We had a marvelous time.

I love historical places you learn a lot.

Beautiful site. Attended a wedding here. Was very open and spacious, main downside was that it was dark and hard to see at night once the sun set and tons of mosquitos and insects.

Very cool place! Especially for Easter! Great people running this program.

Beautifully restored pre-revolutionary Colonial small mansion Plantation just a wonderful local exhibition!

Wonderful, peaceful place. A very nice and interesting piece of history.
