Fun stuff nearby and Day trips
Martinsville is a small town, but there's some hidden gems that we love! Here's our favorites:
Our favorite place for a walk or a picnic! The walking trail goes around the lake, about 2 miles total. Say hello to the swan named Victoria, she is a widow now but enjoys her retirement days as the lake mascot and watches over the ducks and geese. The lake is private, but we are members and as our guests you have access. But please be respectful of the posted rules and NO feeding the swans or other wildlife.
