This quaint riverfront town traces its history to the Dogue Indians. Serving as the site of the first automated gristmill while surviving Civil War skirmishes, an earthquake and even a fire, today, Occoquan is a haven for shoppers and history lovers. Boasting more than 50 specialty boutiques, eateries and antique shops, the town is easily accessible from I-95 and is known for its Arts & Crafts Festival held twice a year. The story goes that this quaint town is still “haunted” by its past, as guided ghost tours have become quite popular in Occoquan.
