We were made to feel like unwelcome intruders for showing up with kids. Maymont was better, offered much more grounds to explore.

Free, in downtown Richmond, tour of 6 people, you feel like you traveled over the Atlantic to England in the 1600s, plus beautiful gardens. A history tour and magnificent house.
