Tides Inn Shoreline
In March 2021, our resort embarked on a shoreline restoration project, which
included a shoreline boardwalk and trail along Carter’s Creek, beach restoration
and new educational programming.
As this new wetland area filters the water and provides a natural habitat for birds,
aquatic life and other species, we added 10,000 shoreline plants, 10,000 upland
plants, 42 new trees, a new oyster reef and preserved 30 old-growth trees.

Fall Foliage Forays
Area expert, Susan Williamson, who has welcomed guests at our resort for decades, has
compiled a list of her favorite recreation areas to see fall foliage and wildlife. If you depart
from the Tides Inn and complete all four, the round-trip driving will be approximately two
hours (plus your visit time). Let us arrange a gourmet picnic basket to enjoy along the way
– maybe overlooking wetlands of the Rappahannock.
Start your fall “leaf peeping” excursion right at the resort on our new nature trail, which
takes you through a wooded area to see our horticulturist’s “mushroom garden” and
culminates in our beautiful wildflower field. There, see native flowers being pollinated by
our resident honeybees. See our Concierge for a walking map.
One of the most significant wetlands on the Chesapeake Bay for marsh-bird communities,
Dameron Marsh Natural Area Preserve boasts pristine sandy shorelines. Walking along
the boardwalk, you may admire the beauty of the saltmarsh. Don’t forget your binoculars,
as marsh hawks, brown pelicans, vultures, swans and more may be spotted. As the upland
portions were used for agriculture for three centuries, the former fields were restored to
forested habitats that support diverse wildlife.
A 15-minute drive west of Dameron is Hickory Hollow Natural Area Preserve. A three-
mile trail winds through the 254-acre preserve with mixed pine-hardwood forests, ravines,
and swampland. You may spot various songbirds, wild turkeys, tulip poplar trees and even
persimmon trees.
Next, journey another 20 minutes to Rappahannock River Valley National Wildlife
Refuge, a 9,030-acre sanctuary created to protect fish and wildlife species, especially
endangered ones. With a forest, grassland and wetland habitats, the refuge is a popular
nesting spot for bald eagles, so your chances of seeing one are very high.
The last stop on our four-site tour is Belle Isle State Park with 892 acres and seven miles
of shoreline. Explore its tidal wetlands and upland forests on hiking, biking and bridle trails.
Bicycle, canoe and kayak rentals are available on-site.
