The author of the Virginia Bill of Rights, Mason was contemporaries of George Washington and James Madison. Gunston Hall does a good job of bringing Mason's history to life. The visitor center includes an exhibit about his life, including areas for people of all ages to interact. There's even a dress up area that kids love. The house tour is $10 and it's the only way to go inside the 18th century mansion. The tour lasts around 45 minutes and they don't shy away from the fact that Mason enslaved between 100-300 people on his plantation. The garden behind the mansion is worth a visit as is hiking the trails, one which leads to the Potomac River. Mason and his first wife are buried near the mansion.

Amenities: *reclining seats *Mobile ordering *season passes *movie themed watch parties But recently within the last 2 months, the food quality has changed. I never been a fan of the cocktails offered on the menu but the food used to be tasty. I have no clue what changed but it's drastically noticeable. Last week I ordered mozzarella sticks and queso and cheese. This is the second time I've gotten the queso and it has a weird taste. The mozzarella sticks had an after taste as well. If possible go back to the quality and taste that were previously available earlier this year.

Located in a subdivision, park on the street and follow the path to the ruins. There are three places with ruins- the foundation of the 18th century house, what's left of old Greek Revival columns, and two small wooden structures. All except the columns are fenced off. Several signs are scattered throughout the space, but half are almost impossible to read due to wear and tear. It's worth noting that even though the land was used as a plantation whose owner enslaved people, there is no mention of that and how evil that was. It's a huge miss since acknowledgement and condemnation is one small step toward creating a more equitable society for all.

This interesting marker predates the Civil War and Revolutionary War histories of the Richmond area…read moreand recall the days when Virginia was just an English colony. The marker reads, "In 1611, Farrar's Island was the site of the "Citie of Henrico," one of Virginia's first four primary settlement areas under the Virginia Company of London. Later, it was part of a 2,000-acre land patent issued posthumously to William Farrar in 1637. Farrar, who arrived in Virginia from London in 1618 aboard the Neptune, invested in the company under its third charter. In 1626, Governor Sir George Yeardley appointed Farrar to the governor's Council, a position he occupied until 1632. He also served as a justice for two counties. Farrar family members resided on the island until they sold it to Thomas Randolph on 26 Jan. 1727." There do not appear to be many Farrar's left in the area. [Review 11971 overall, 1754 of 2019.]
