Williamsville, VA ~ Bath County



Williamsville is a sleepy little village about 50 miles west of Lexington, and a former favorite fishing hole for Buddy and his friends. There is a volunteer fire department, a little community center, a church, and a cemetery. The post office is closed and Slim’s Grocery, where Bud would buy his snacks and drinks, is no longer in existence, but the little village is still there. We go there every year for the Bath County Maple Syrup Festival. We eat at the community center and then go for a hike along the Bull Pasture River. The festival runs for two weekends.
