After you cross the Maryland/Virginia border, go approximately 47 miles on US Rt. 13 to the Town of Painter, Virginia. At that traffic light, continue about 2 miles. We are located on the West side (right side) of the highway. Our hours are Tuesday - Saturday, 10:00 am-4:00 pm, Sunday, 12 pm - 4 pm

You will still be on US Rt. 13 after you cross the bridge-tunnel. On the north side of the bridge-tunnel proceed about 32 miles to the Town of Exmore.
