This is the only swing bridge to cross the James River. It was originally constructed in 1851. Back then, each person had to pay 5 cents to cross and 5 cents for every horse, mule or oxen. The bridge was destroyed and rebuilt three times – during the Civil War and after a flood. The bridge has great views over the James River and the Blue Ridge and Alleghany Mountains.

If your budget allows, this would be the place to spent a day and relax. Lovely setting on the lake surrounded by three mountain peaks, all accessible by hiking trails. Dining is the first class with excellent choice of local craft beer and wine. As a cheaper version, you can stay at the camp and use all lodge facilities. Camp has running water toilets but no showers.
