When looking on a map you'll find Mouth of Wilson, Virginia at the junction of hwy 58 & 16. That tiny spot near the NC border is us. We're on that corner in the big white house - you can't miss it. And if you do miss it, stop and ask anyone, and they'll send you back towards MOW.

Note on GPS
If you decide to use a gps to get you here be aware that they have a bad reputation here for taking visitors on the long, scenic route around here. If you use one, just make sure you check the map from time to time.
The Blue Ridge Parkway is a wonderful experience, so long as you have time to soak it up. Be weary of any directions that incorporate the parkway.
We don't have it.
- AT&T coverage ends 30+ miles away
- Verizon is patchy up on hills and in the vicinity
