Area is so rich in Revolutionary history. Area attractions are well marked. Park service personal extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely coming back in the summer. Plan to camp and make multiple day trips to see things we missed today.

Historic title for a slight hole in the hill. Yorktown is a delightful place to learn about the last significant battle of the Revolutionary War. The town council has done an impressive redo and restoration of the waterfront. It's a happening place wih quaint shops and yummy eateries. Swim in the Chesapeake. Take a trip on one of the reproduction ships. Ride the historic route our war heroes marched. The battlefields are well marked. See you there!!
It's important to read up on the misconceptions regarding this landmark (in that it was likely only used for food crop storage prior to the Civil War, and that Cornwallis likely used Nelson House to seek refuge which would explain all the interesting \character\ the house has acquired from that time period.) The notches in the cave exterior is the result of it being used for military purposes in which it was fortified for the Confederates. Still an interesting landmark in spite of the misnomer.
Always a fun place to visit. Yorktown is awesome for history buffs
I loved the area, just sad there wasn't much open right now with covid stuff going on. Will be visiting this area again!
