Virginia Counties from A to York

  • Brunswick County

    Brunswick County

    We spent the best dog friendly weekend ever in Brunswick County, Virginia sampling Brunswick Stew and exploring Fort Christanna, the Tobacco Heritage Trail, and Lake Gaston.

  • Botetourt County

    Botetourt County

    We found the top 10 dog friendly activities in Botetourt County, including a historical tour, a 200-foot waterfall, and paddling on the James River.

  • Bland County

    Bland County

    In Virginia’s own Shangri-La within the Blue Ridge we marveled at the picturesque landscapes, endless forests, and absence of traffic lights.

  • Bedford County

    Bedford County

    Maybe the Beale Ciphers are a hoax or maybe Bedford County conceals a vast fortune. Nonetheless, we are far richer for having discovered some of Bedford County’s treasures for ourselves over a long weekend.

  • Bath County

    Bath County

    We thoroughly enjoyed our dip into Bath County. With forests covering almost 90 percent of the county, its verdant beauty left us awestruck.

  • Augusta County

    Augusta County

    We spent a long weekend exploring dog friendly activities in Augusta County, Virginia, but could easily imagine spending an enjoyable two weeks here, or perhaps even an entire lifetime

  • Arlington County

    Arlington County

    We left the dogs at home to visit Arlington National Cemetery, but made it up to them later with a grand tour of Arlington’s dog friendly spots.

  • Appomattox County

    Appomattox County

    In Appomattox County, we were either off-grid and having fun outdoors or we were taking in the area’s Civil War history.

  • Amherst County

    Amherst County

    Don’t make my mistake when you visit Amherst County. Bring your kayak! The good news: we saw 2 waterfalls, hiked portions of the Appalachian Trail and James River Heritage Trail, and visited the Monacan Indian Nation Museum. Added bonus: Mack and his brother Ron had a ball fishing the James River with guide Jeremy Cunningham.

  • Amelia County

    Amelia County

    If you are a Civil War history buff, you know that Amelia Courthouse and Sailor’s Creek both played crucial roles at the end of the war. Close to the Courthouse, Amelia County’s Wildlife Management Area is a great place to fish, hike, bike and go kayaking. Plus, it’s free and dog friendly!
