This small town is nestled among mountains and is home to numerous outdoor activities. The town is close to hiking trails, and the Shenandoah River. A cabin in this charming town offers five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a fully-equipped kitchen. It also has a fire pit and outdoor barbecue grill. The front porch has three spacious decks and a gazebo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While visiting Front Royal, you can stop by the Warren Rifles Confederate Museum, which contains memorabilia and relics from the Civil War. Here, you can view authentic war items, restored historical documents, and weapons from the Battle of Front Royal. You can also browse a selection of used books, as well as pick up souvenirs for friends and family. And if you&#8217;re looking for something a little different, visit PageMaster Used Books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the top attractions in Front Royal are Skyline Caverns and Skyline Drive, the northern entrance to Shenandoah National Park. However, the city&#8217;s rich history goes back to the American Civil War. The town is also known as the canoe capital of Virginia, and you&#8217;ll find plenty of opportunities to practice your favorite water sport. With so many attractions in this charming town, it&#8217;s easy to see why it&#8217;s nicknamed &#8220;Canoe Capital of Virginia.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Warren County is the county seat of Front Royal, VA, a town of about 15,000 people. It is located 76 miles west of Washington, D.C. and is the 34th largest city in Virginia. The town has an area of 9.5 square miles (24 km2), with only 2.5 percent of its total area covered by water. The Appalachian Trail also passes through the city. The town is well-served by Washington Dulles International Airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Front Royal Cardinals joined the Valley League in 1984, and play their home games at Bing Crosby Stadium, which is named after the legendary actor and singer. Bing Crosby was first involved in the town when he helped raise money for the stadium and arranged the world premiere of his movie Riding High in Front Royal. Moreover, Bing Crosby donated a $1,000 donation to the Front Royal Recreation Center Building Fund and also donated a baseball field to the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cottage named after the famous Confederate spy Belle Boyd is one of the many attractions in Front Royal Virginia. The property was operated by the daughter of a wealthy man, and at one point only her family and the highest-class visitors were allowed to stay there. President Franklin Pierce and General Fitzgerald Lee were among the guests of this house, which is a prime example of how important the town was during the Civil War. With such a rich Civil War history, it&#8217;s no wonder it&#8217;s a popular tourist destination.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re planning a trip to Front Royal Virginia, you&#8217;ll need to know what to expect.
