The museum is pretty interesting if you like learning about history and/or the Civil War - don't miss walking around the farm across the street but learn about it at the museum first. Read more

Great battlefield and the volunteers were fantastic. Do the driving tour and check out the visitor center .

Auto tour is small and not terribly interesting. If you come here do the ranger talk to really appreciate this small but incredibly important battle.

Cole Knight

Beautiful scenery and great historical info. A hidden gem .
