Getting around

We recommend bringing your own vehicle for getting around the larger area, as Lexington does not currently have an active taxi or cab service.

We are a 12 minute drive to downtown Lexington, a 15 minute drive to the VA Horse Center, and a 20 minute drive to Natural Bridge.

Note: The Blue Ridge Parkway is closed whenever there is ice or snow as it is not scraped or treated by the highway department. If GPS routes you this way, check to make sure it is open before setting out for travel.
Exact location provided after booking.
