Restful new cottage facing woods and paths near historic sites & biking trails

A Quiet, peaceful getaway with rocking chair porch and wooded walking trails around the 26 acre farm. This rural setting provides time to relax and breathe as well as pet and feed the goats, gather a few chicken eggs and ride an old tractor around the field. We are located within 30 minutes of multiple historic sites from both the Revolutionary and Civil War time periods. In fact, the brick tavern where we live was constructed in 1837! You can hear the clip-clop of Amish buggies going down the street, walk or bike on the High Bridge trail, grab some local diner food, or do a whole lot of nothing. Our county has one traffic light but miles of back roads. Take a leisurely drive around southern Virginia's farmland or stop at an Amish stand to buy baked goods, canned goods, quilts and more. We look forward to hosting you at The Shepherd's Tavern Retreat and Farm.

  • The initial engagement on July 21, 1861 of what would become the First Battle of Bull Run (First Manassas) took place on McLean's farm in Manassas, Virginia. Union Army artillery fired at McLean's house, which was being used as a headquarters for Confederate Brigadier General P. G. T. Beauregard, and a cannonball dropped through the kitchen fireplace. 

McLean was a retired major in the Virginia militia, but at 47, he was too old to return to active duty at the outbreak of the Civil War. In the spring of 1863, he and his family moved about 120 miles south to Appomattox County, Virginia, near a dusty, crossroads community called Appomattox Court House.

On April 9, 1865, the war revisited McLean. Confederate General Robert E. Lee was about to surrender to Lieutenant General Ulysses S. Grant. He sent a messenger to Appomattox Court House to find a place to meet. On April 8, 1865, the messenger knocked on McLean's door and requested the use of his home, to which McLean reluctantly agreed. Lee surrendered to Grant in the parlor of McLean's house, effectively ending the Civil War. Later, McLean is supposed to have said "The war began in my front yard and ended in my front parlor."
