Are you looking for a breathtaking setting for your next gathering?

Host a luncheon or picnic for your group of 10 to 40 people at one of Prince William County's oldest homes.  Our catered luncheons are a wonderful and unique way for groups to conduct a business meeting, lead a book club discussion, throw a baby or wedding shower, or just spend a relaxing day out with friends. 

Afterwards, enjoy a guided tour of the grounds and house, and learn about the unique and interesting residents that have called Rippon Lodge home from 1747 to modern times.  Tranquil views of Neabsco Creek and the Potomac River will make your gathering a one of a kind experience.
Please note that house tours are 45 minutes and the upper floor is not handicapped accessible. The ground tours are an additional 45 minutes. Groups larger than 20 will be separated into smaller tour sizes. Grounds tours are optional and participants should be able to walk unpaved trails.
