My wife and I were out driving in the countryside up and down Route 11 and decided to pop in to the Visitors Center. We didn't have a clue what to expect. I had looked up the Edinburg Mill the day before and actually the low admission fee ($3 in Jan 2018) made me a little leery. I didn't expect much. But was I ever pleasantly surprised. I especially enjoyed seeing so much about local history and how the people actually lived. Lots of personal history. There's a 45 minute movie included in the fee about the history of the mill - but we didn't have time to watch it. You could spend multiple hours here and probably not see everything. I didn't recall the two docents names but they were very knowledgeable and nice. Ample parking (but perhaps this might change when the restaurant opens). The gift shop was eclectic and even included some local pottery and antiques (but it's not an antique store). There's a restaurant opening in January 2018. The Edinburg Mill may not have the polish and sophistication of a big city museum - but that's why I highly recommend a visit.

Three stories of local history--"treasures" as the nice lady told us. It's a low admission price that also includes a 45 minute film entitled, "The Burning". We have two boys, aged 10 and 5. The 10 year old (who happens to enjoy history) loved it, but even the five-year-old was not bored. That would seem to say something! Lots to look at here, and for us, it was well worth it.

It also owns a separate building directly across from the battlefield, which holds the foundation's store and HQ. Admission to Hupp's Hill is $5. This place is the repository of the battle's artifacts and focuses on the later aspects of the Shenandoah campaign, which culminated in the Battle of Cedar Creek. More importantly, Hupp's Hill has a short walking trail which takes you past several original Confederate fighting positions called "lunettes", named for their half-moon shape. The hill served as a natural fortification during the war, although it never saw actual fighting. Without much difficulty you can see the outline of several bunkers. When I visited the museum it was empty, although the aide was quick to put on the (rather long) video which described the battle. There is also a large terrain map of Cedar Creek, which is useful in conceptualizing the battle. I enjoyed the museum much more than I thought I would. $5 is a worthwhile investment in the Foundation's work. If you are going to visit the battlefield, think about visiting Hupp's Hill first. Alternatively you can visit the National Park Service location just north of the battlefield. http://www.yelp.com/biz/cedar-creek-and-belle-grove-national-historic-park-middletown NPS site http://www.yelp.com/biz/cedar-creek-battlefield-foundation-middletown CCBF HQ, right across from the battlefield
