Named one of the South's best small towns by Southern Living magazine, Fredericksburg is about one hour from Washington, D.C. One of the top ways to take in the season in Fredericksburg is by exploring Widewater State Park, located on a peninsula where Aquia Creek meets the Potomac River. The views of the changing leaves are often best observed here from a canoe. Those visiting by RV can stay at Wilderness Presidential Resort, a family-friendly camping retreat located on more than 600 acres of forest. Every RV site at the resort includes electricity and water.
