Popes Creek is the birthplace of our First President, George Washington. Here you will learn about his ancestors and see where he was born and spent the first three years of his life before his family moved to another plantation owned by his father called Little Hunting Creek (Today we know it as Mount Vernon) before finally relocating to Ferry Farm where he grew up. This is a very tranquil place where you can not only learn but also enjoy a picnic lunch on the banks of the Potomac River.
