  • Essex County

    Essex County

    How dog friendly is Essex County, Virginia and its historic town of Tappahannock? We asked our dogs and they had a lot to say on this subject, including—and this is a direct quote—“WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!WOOF! WOOF!”

    If you want to take a road trip with your dog, we suggest including Cumberland County and Farmville to the itinerary. If you want to hike, kayak, visit Civil War historical sites, and eat good food, then this is your happy place. Visit the High Bridge with your pack and thank us later.

    Does a dog friendly adventure involving forests, mountains, bald eagles, a waterfall, hiking, fishing, folk art, and bison sound too good to be true? We found all of these things and more in Craig County, our corner of paradise.
