we just go back from staying at the Williamsburg Lodge. I was able to check in early which I was very happy about. I was a bit confused why I was asked if I was visting someone when I pulled up. The room was very clean, quite and comfortable. There was a shuttle that took you around williamsburg and to Bush Gardens christmas town for free. The breakfast buffett was good. It cost $15 and kids 5 and under are free. They have a spa and pool with jacuzzi hot tub which me and my dd loved. The area is quite and very kid friendly. I would recommend this lodge to and and everyone.

It has hands on activities for the kids. It has a plane that kids are allowed to get into. It has audio and visual exhibits. It has a kid play area. It has an outside exhitbs also. Theres a box with free planes by the exit/enter doorway. We stayed for two hours but the exhibit is very small you can see everything in under an hour.

The caverns are cold, small and slippery. We were very cramped. They might want to do smaller groups.There are bats on the ceilings. Certain parts of the caverns are very low anyone over 6 feet will bump there heads. I would pass on this site. It was a 45 mins walk through the caverns not much history. The tour guide blames everything on earthquakes. After going through one a couple of months ago that isn't something you want to hear while you are in a cave with one way and out.

The mountain view is breathtaking. We did a day trip but it would be a wonderful weekend trip there is still so much to see around the area.

They have a cafe but we packed out own lunch. There are great spots for a family picnic. Expecially if the weather is good.

FYI- The aren't any gas station within a mile of Natural Bridge so check you tanks.

It took an hour in a half to get to the orchard. It was a bumpy ride up the mountain. Parking was plentyful. There were plenty of information booths to ask questions and receive directions to were the apples are. They have lots of different types of apples but they all might not be ready to pick or they might be all gone by the time you go to pick them. We were able to get three type on the day that we went while picking from the orchard. The Brareburn, fuji, and granny smith apples. The Fuji apples were up the mountain so wear your sneakers. They had a general store and a small place to get hot dogs,burgers etc. They prices are expensive. The donuts are very yummy. Going down the mountain was way more smoother than up the mountain. I think this is a great experience for children. I enjoyed the trip but not sure I would go again.

o yea beware of the flying bugs that are all over the place and they will land on you.
