Reedville Attractions
Reedville is a town built on fishing. Each summer the town hosts a huge bluefish tournament with over $25,000 in prize money. The town is located between the Potomac and Rappahannock Rivers in an area known as the Northern Neck of Virginia. Access to Chesapeake Bay is easy and the town is noted for its history of wealthy inhabitants. In fact, there is a "millionaires' row" of mansions for those interested in taking in sights away from the water.
