Colonial Beach and our Main Street are at the very edge of the Washington, DC Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), yet feel like a place all their own. Our community offers the best of all worlds – away from teeming crowds and modern-day pressures, but with all the conveniences of our 21st century world. Nearby are inspiring historical sites, wonderful wineries, state parks, nature trails, and a number of navigable creeks and waterways.

​

All this to say is that we're a hidden gem for investors, entrepreneurs and innovators.  As a visitor economy, we offer a stable, yet promising environment for those looking to start or move a business associated with hospitality, wellness and/or concierge services.  As a DC exurb, and a pleasant drive away from Richmond and Fredericksburg, we offer a supportive environment for tech transfer innovators and those able to work remotely in government, healthcare, technology and other cerebral professions.  We invite you to come give us a look!
