-Explore the Great Outdoors: Stafford has 28 parks and even more incredible natural wonders, like Government Island where you can see the stone used to help build the White House and Capital Building!

-Savor Local Flavors: while chain restaurants are an easy go to, supporting local businesses means so much more! The Log Cabin Restaurant is Stafford's oldest running business and restaurant!

-Get Inspired by Local Art: whether you prefer strolling the impressive gallery at Gari Melchers Home and Studio or sitting back, relaxing and watching a live performance at Riverside Center for the Performing Arts, Stafford will leave you in awe of it's past and present residents.

-Discover Hidden Gems: the best way to keep things hidden is right in front of you - and that's exactly where we hide them!
