Stratford Hall #3 Mill Pond Trail Traditional Cache

Visit the Grist Mill then as you depart from that area, you will see picnic tables at the Pond. Just around the curve from that, you will see a Port-A-Potty and there is room for one or two cars to park close to that. 

This one is just before the trail becomes difficult. Some of the trails at Stratford require lots of effort and this one may as well but the cache is placed so most people will be able to make the find. 

Stratford Hall was the home of the Lees of Virginia.  Two of the sons were signers of the Declaration of Independence.  Robert E Lee was the grandson of this family and son of "Lighthorse Harry Lee".  The property consists of approximately 1,900 acres and has numerous trails, the restored home and a grist mill.  Spend the day visiting this historical site AND find a number of geocaches.  Some are on difficult trails and others are pretty easy to get to.  

If you wish to visit the grounds, there is an admission fee and if you chose to visit the house, it is slightly higher.  There are cabins which can be rented  and a restaurant on the property. SPECIAL NOTE;  JULY 4, 2015 THERE IS NO ADMISSION FEE FOR THE GROUNDS OR THE HOUSE.  Don't miss this opportunity.
