The Williamsburg Real Estate Blog

This is a response to a question that I get quite often.  Do residents get in free to Colonial Williamsburg?  The answer is Yes and No.  If you are 17 or younger you get in free.  It will cost you $10 if you are older than 17.  Below are the cliff notes on how to get your pass.

The policy reads as this...

"To obtain or renew Good Neighbor Cards, visit the official Colonial Williamsburg Visitor Center (open year-round including holidays) or the Lumber House Ticket Office (open seasonally). Bring your valid Virginia driver’s license with a Williamsburg address and a current month’s utility bill as proof of occupancy of a local residence. Examples are: Heating and air conditioning, phone, cable, oil bills. We do not accept mortgage or rental agreements, checkbook registers, phonebook listings, or tax receipts. Resident must prove occupancy not ownership or rental of their residence. Student status can be verified through current student ID card, a class assignment letter, student progress report card, letter of curriculum approval for home-schooled students or other similar documentation. A current student ID card serves as a Good Neighbor Card for students at the College of William and Mary. Faculty and staff of the college must apply for a Good Neighbor Card. "

Here is what the pass gets you...

On a loosely related subject, Busch Gardens & Water Country USA offfer season passes.  If you live locally, this is one of the best deals in town.  To get into both parks all season-long it is about $125.00 or $115/per pass if you buy 4 or more.  Check the grocery and drug stores for additional coupons and discounts.

Have fun and if you are looking for recommendations, I'd go ride Apollos Chariot, the roller coaster that Fabio made famous.
