Discover Irvington, Virginia

Nestled on the shore where Carter’s Creek flows into the Rappahannock River, barely 12 miles north of the Chesapeake Bay, Irvington is a small town that feels like a Norman Rockwell painting. Visitors can enjoy world–class lodging, fine dining, boutique shopping, a winery, and a farmers market in the summer.

Top 5 Things to Do

1. Stay in Style

Irvington is home to two nationally recognized inns; The Tides Inn (Built in 1947 and the area’s only 4-star property) and Hope & Glory Inn (“The South’s Best Inn” – Southern Living Magazine). If living like a local is more of your thing, check out one of the many short-term rentals here.

2. Reconnect with the Past

Learn how ships changed the way of life on the Chesapeake Bay at the Steamboat Era Museum. Or visit Historic Christ Church & Museum. This 1735 original structure is one of America’s best examples of 18th Century church architecture.
