The restored village of Yorktown, which offers museums, restaurants and unique shops, is one-half block away. Yorktown's beach and the Riverwalk Landing along the York River are two blocks away. The 13-mile Colonial National Historic Parkway, which links Yorktown with Williamsburg and Jamestown, is an attractive route for touring, either by car or bicycle.
